The New Moon represents the Goddess in her aspect as the Dark Mother, Darksome night. The New Moon is where the sun and moon is in conjunction. The new moon is a time of initiation and new beginnings. It is the time to plant a seed of what you want to grow in your life. Making a wish, an intention, a promise, or a vow is a common custom. It is believed that as the moon grows, so will your intention or goal usually by the time the moon completes its cycle and returns full circle to new again.
New Moons tend to make us want to plant new seeds and start afresh. However, we are essentially working blind however, without the illumination of the Sun’s wisdom. With a New Moon we are working 100% on our instincts, so any decisions made at this time will be from habitual drives and infantile cravings which may not be in our best interests. We should listen to our body, because the more we tune into it, the more we can tell the difference between a wounded ancestor who is crying out for attention and a genuine gut-feeling that is one’s trusted intuition. Otherwise discernment is needed, because the guidance of the Sun (the light of truth) is missing at the New Moon and one may easily be hoodwinked.
A New Moon can work powerful manifestation magic because the Moon is furthest from the earth and this frees the imagination from material limits. Thought-seeds planted at the New Moon will grow, so be careful what you wish for! A Solar Eclipse is like a really powerful reboot. The blinding light of the Sun is blocked for just enough time to get a new perspective. It is mind-altering and refreshing, but it can turn your world upside down too.
The new Moon offers us its energy of intention, to rid ourselves of the negative habits in our life. The energy of the new moon aids us in ridding our minds and bodies of toxic thought patterns as well as eliminating toxic substances like excess alcohol, processed foods, caffeine & tobacco usage.
New Moons are working celebrations. Learning and understanding the moons influences and making its energies work best for you. It is a time New Beginnings, New Projects, Rejuvenation, Beauty, Self-Empowerment, Nurturing, time for Dark Works and so much more.
Starting a new project, or discipline should be substantially less difficult to stick to when started during the new moon.
