Esbats are rites held for the purpose of communing with the Moon's energies and are regarded as the time for most magical workings. This is the time in which to attract, banish, invoke protect, or to perform many other magical workings. There is 1 full moon each month and the 13th Moon is called the Blue Moon, this occurs when four full moons fall within the same season (or 2 full moons fall within the same month). In some traditions, the three moon phases are linked with the Maiden, Mother and Crone.
