Understanding the New Moon
The “new moon” marks the start of the lunar cycle. This dark phase of the moon, often lasting only a few days, symbolises a time of reflection, renewal, and intention-setting. This is perfect to have a little moon ritual when you want to wipe the slate clean and start afresh.
Setting Positive Intentions under The New Moon
Take some time to reflect on what you want to manifest into your life, using this moment as a starting point. It’s important to spend some time thinking about what you want to attract towards you, rather than thinking of the things you no longer want.
Simple Rituals using The New Moon
Once you have thought of some intentions and framed them in a positive way, you can enhance their power by creating a ritual around them. It can be as low key, or as ceremonial as you wish. The important part is you, and ensuring that any actions you perform resonate with you and make you feel connected to your intentions.
Using Candles: You can light candles and then write out your positive intentions. You’ll want to write down your intentions clearly and concisely, focusing on what you want to attract rather than what you wish to avoid. For example, instead of writing “I don’t want to feel stressed,” reframe it as “I embrace peace and tranquility in my life.”
Vision Boards: You can spend a longer time creating a board that uses materials, art or other symbols of your positive intentions. This longer, physical act serves as a reminder of your goals and keeps your intentions at the forefront of your mind through the creative process.
Meditation: For a more reflective, and quiet ritual, you can spend some time just focusing on your intentions in your mind, visualising your desires as already achieved, feeling the emotions and sensations that come with their manifestation. See yourself living your goals and experiencing the joy and fulfilment they bring.
Embracing Positive Intentions Using the New Moon
These simple rituals carried out using the new moon help to imprint your intentions into your unconscious mind. You can then unconsciously, as well as consciously, take action towards achieving your goals. You can make them as magickal as you desire, the key is to find a method that resonates with you and allows you to connect deeply with your intentions.
