🌑 New Moon Ritual 🌑

witchylavenderkisses:

Hello Loves! 

I’m posting this a little late but thought I would show you what I did for the New Moon.

The New Moon is all about new beginnings, cleansing, setting and reassessing intentions, goals and manifesting your desires. It’s a time to rid of things that no longer aid you and welcome the things that do, and putting those aids in to practice. It’s also a wonderful time to start new projects.

The Ritual:

I started the day by cleaning my room, sweeping out the negativity, cleaning my altar, cleansing with sage and burning lavender incense for inner peace and tranquility.

After I cleansed my surroundings I started to cleanse myself. Starting with light stretching to awaken the body from slumber and guided meditation for opening the mind and soul. I then went for a water cleanse and swam leisurely in the pool (the ocean would’ve been ideal but a simple shower or bath works great too), it’s important to admire and thank your surroundings, find beauty in it all. I love to thank Gaia for all she gives us. After the pool, I did a sort of second water cleanse in the shower. Simply imagining negativity seeping out of my body and down the drain and fresh positivity and ambition seeping in.

Once I cleansed my self, I let the sun set and at moon rise I began my spell work and manifesting. Here’s what I did and what you can do:

🌑 I started by writing down all things that no longer aid me and the negativity I wanted out of my life.

🌑 I then proceeded to burn it (safely, please be cautious with fire!) where the New Moon could see and wash it away. As it burned I visualized the negativity and unhelpful habits leave my body and fly away.

🌑 Next, I wrote down all the things I wanted to invite, keep and manifest in to my life. 

🌑 I then carefully rolled the piece of paper up into a little scroll and tied it with some blessed twine/rope, I added some pieces of Rosemary, Baby’s Breath and a lavender coloured flower for knowledge and intuition. 

🌑 Once I had created my scroll I meditated with it and some crystals, holding it in my hand and infusing it with power.

If you make this cute little intentions scroll I recommend keeping it somewhere visible, so you can always look upon it when you feel you’re going astray.

I ended the night by thanking the Moon and Gaia and proceeded to journal and get a good nights rest!

I hope this gives you some inspiration for the New Moon and setting intentions.

A gentle reminder is, whilst Moon phases are strong times to do certain things there is no right or wrong time to set intentions, break bad habits and manifest your dreams! You don’t need to wait for the next Moon phase, and if you feel now is or isn’t the time then trust what your intuition is telling you! 

Blessed Be!
