I love the journey of harnessing the power of the moon's divine phases… Today is a New Moon and that means the next few days offer the perfect time to clear your mind and design your plans for the upcoming weeks.
Here are three things I encourage you to embrace this week:
1: Renew Your Mind
What we focus on flourishes. We spend time organizing drawers and closets - clearing out our physical spaces to create space where we can rest and grow in peace. This week, invest some time in renewing your mind. If you don’t already have a sacred space to meditate - grab a tray, put a beautiful piece of fabric or lace from your Grammy, add a candle or some incense, your favorite crystals (my favorites for this cycle are Obsidian and Aquamarine), and a bell or singing bowl to help set your intention and signify when your sacred time begins. Creating your space is a beautiful gift to give yourself.
2: Only Give Your Holiest Yes
Practice only saying yes to the holiest, most aligned opportunities for the next week. Once you feel the high of honoring yourself - I dare you to keep it going! One of my favorite filters to use when deciding if it is a holy yes or a hell no is my list of core values. If an opportunity does not honor my values it makes it to the hell no list - immediately. Joyfully take a look at your calendar and decline the hell no events that made their way into your schedule.
3: Honor Your Emotions
With everything happening on our planet right now, it can sometimes feel difficult simply getting out of bed. If you need a good cry - run a hot bath, light some candles, and let it out. If you’re ready for a good belly laugh - surround yourself with what brings you joy. For me, animal videos always cheer me up… especially jumping baby goats in pajamas or different animal species loving one another - like this kitty getting a massage from a raccoon!
Beloved, once you have had a chance to renew your mind, create room for your holy yes events, and honor your emotions - take a few deep breaths, put on your coziest goddess gown, grab your journal, and write out a few things you would like to accomplish over the next 4 weeks! Use the new moon as a divine moment to plant the seeds of something new. If you created a playlist to support you in honoring your guiding word of the year - now is an excellent time to listen to it. Here is my Sovereignty Playlist.
Tired of planning or already completed your planning? Let the new moon inspire you to embrace something that’s outside of your norm and do something you’ve never done before!
Sending love and light your way.
