Money spell question

I've read that your not supposed to look at the moon while casting a money spell, as it would make the money go in the opposite direction. What's the reason for this? My source for this information is the book "Wicca: a year and day in magick, the complete beginners guide". I purchased this book because I had heard good things about it, and even though I haven't read the whole book yet but the information about what Wicca is, who the goddess is, and who the the horned God is, are all correct. When I cast money spells I don't look at the moon anyway, I'm just wondering why your not supposed to. You know, aside from your just not supposed to.
Thanks

To be honest, even in organized religions, there are a lot of things that change from group to group. I've personally never heard that rule, but magic is a pretty individualized practice, and we each have our own little rules.

I have also never heard of that but I suppose as well, practices do vary. I have in the past cast to draw money to me and have utilized the energies of the moon and it turned out fine.

I did a money spell on Thursday. Friday I did very well at work, Saturday my husband won $70 on a scratch off lottery ticket, and today I won $75 on a football square.

P.S I myself have also used the moon's energies for money spells and they all work very well, so I just thought it was odd that this book said not to look at the moon.

Thanks to everyone for their replies!

I have heard that it is bad luck to see the New Moon, over your left shoulder through glass. ie a window or a mirror.
However it is good luck to turn your money over in your pocket when you first see the New Moon.
This is what I believe anyway.
The only time the Moon is unlucky is when it is Void of Course, or when it is black. That is Hekate's time and witches usually take a rest from spellcrafting.
