Very Old but also New!
It's a new moon!!
It's also the beginning of the Lunar year, and the Chinese Calendar. Happy Chinese New Year!!
And what does that mean?
It means new goals, new dreams, new projects, new perspectives, new relationships… and all around an opportunity for a fresh start.
This is my favourite part of a month. The old energies have been shed. It is a time of planning, a rebirth of energy and it is brimming with potential.
When there is a new moon, the Earth, Moon and Sun are in alignment and there is no reflection of light that we can see. Because if this, the moon appears to be absent, though it is in fact there.
To make the most of a new moon, you should do a new moon ritual. Light a candle, be present, and with a paper and pen(cil) write down your intentions for the month ahead. Write down what you want to manifest, the goals you intend to achieve. This is a contract that you are writing to the Universe, and it is what will pull your ideas into the physical realm.
By the next new moon, I will be on another continent. This new moon is VERY significant to me. A lot is about to transpire.
Best of luck with your moon wishes. I need to get to mine.
All my lunar love,
G
