As a Goddess symbol, this sign can be found in various NeoPagan and Wiccan traditions. The first crescent denotes the moon’s waxing phase, which signifies new beginnings, new life, and renewal. The full moon, when magic is at its most potent and strong, is symbolized by the middle circle. Finally, the waning moon is represented by the last crescent, which indicates a time to perform banishing spells and send things away.
