The New Moon, a time of setting intentions and launching new projects, holds a transformative power. Occurring once a month, it signifies the beginning of a cycle, a cosmic reset. This is your opportunity to set intentions and goals that will develop as the Moon waxes toward fullness. Embrace these lunar energies for grounding and a sense of direction. The dark New Moon ritual is a profoundly intimate and powerful experience, so be clear about your desires before you send your requests to the universe.
Whether you're a seasoned journaler or just starting, the process is simple. Begin by jotting down your aspirations for the month. Don't worry about getting it perfect; write until you feel satisfied. If you've been journaling for a while, take a moment to reflect on the past month and note any nudges in the right direction.
Ex:
I am ready to_________
I want to ________
I will _______
I am ready to make new friends.
I want to find my true path in life
I will find a new job that aligns with who I am.
Journal again at the end of your ritual to document how you felt during and after it leading up to the next ritual.
As the new month dawns, revisit your intentions. After completing this task, read what you wrote from the previous month and compare notes. Note what you accomplished from that list and whether the list changed or remained the same. This reflective practice is crucial to your growth journey.
