Mages get bonuses to spell casting and extra spell slots when their moons are in a favorable position.

I don't have the Incantation Magic book(s), but I believe with RPM, your available "spell slots" (charms/conditionals) are taken up equally by minor cantrips and world-shaking spells. Personally, I kind of like the sort of narrative where mages can "run out" of prepared heavy-hitters and be down to cantrips, but RPM largely favors going big (or at least as big as you can reliably get away with) with your charms/conditionals. If you want to implement something like spell levels, you might consider having weak spells take up a fraction of a slot, while more powerful spells take up multiple slots.
