New Moon in Sagittarius

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

New Moon in Sagittarius 2018.

Last week we had a New Moon on Friday, December 7th, in the sign of Sagittarius.

The Sun and Moon conjunct each at 15 degrees and 7 minutes, which created the darkness of the New Moon. This New Moon occurs in the flamboyant sign of Sagittarius. Sagittarius is represented by the Centaur. This New Moon will be not only recharging but pulling in the traits of Sagittarius! The energy is that of the Archer, the optimistic, eager to learn, to explore, is enthusiastic, honest, independent and adventurous. This New Moon is in the fiery, mutable adventurous Sagittarius, and we all know Sagittarius love fresh starts and new beginning. It is a time to align yourself with the New Moon energy, to feel whats energy is being pulled in by the Moon and in this case, its optimistic, fun-loving, happy, adventurous, philosophical and helpful energy of Sagittarius.

It’s a New Moon, so pull it in energy, channel it, meditate on it, journal it and it will give you ideas, dreams for the future. It is the light at the end of tunnel we have been waiting for. We have the chance to make our dreams become reality in the most positive way.

Over the next few days under this fire sign influence. It will give us a cosmic push and  sparks up the fire within you. Its going to give you energy to explore! The motto is, if you can feel it, want it you can have it.

This month it is wise to focus and incorporate these energies and qualities when making your New Moon intentions. The Sadge centaur is rare, and is one of hope. The Centaur, has the bottom half of a horse. His top half is man ( Human). He is ready to shoot his bow and arrow to get to a goal or reach its desired destination. This symbol of the Centaur represents momentum, transcending our animistic natures, giving us the strength, freedom and speed to gallop to our goals.

Unlike a the full moon which focus on  purging old ways, a New Moon is optimistic, a magical time for planning and seeding your intentions. It’s a time of  birthing new ideas, dreams and planting seeds of intention you want to bring into your life over the next few months.  It is an opportune time to attract your heartfelt, wholehearted longings by doing a New Moon ritual focused on manifestation and birth.

Sagittarius is all about adventures, learning , explore and visionaries. So when making your new moon wishes here are some great ideas to incorporate into your manifestation goals. Perhaps its time to plan your next epic vacation. Make a dream board on what places you want to see over this Christmas break,. Sadge love to explore the unknown and different cultures. Go camping, book a last-minute flight, start a holiday or education savings fund. Where there’s a will, there’s a way, where in the world is calling at you?

Sagittarius as we know are very intrigued in regards to learning, teaching and expanding their horizon. This month, makes it a personal mission to seek wisdom in unusual places. Maybe your new-found excitement for travel or a  higher understanding of the world especially ones that can take you to places that connect you with new cultures and new profound philosophies. Suspend your judgment or criticism and take it all in. Be the light you want to see in others.  Better yet, be your own guru.

This New moon gives us the courage to expand our horizons, and gain confidence and optimism from a broader perspective.It also provides us with power to focus on goals that will increase our understanding and awareness.

 

Happy New Moon Manifesting!

The Taurus Full Moon illuminates beauty, Love and Sensuality! 2018

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

 

Happy Full Moon Day! This Full Moon is going to be something else! The Full Moon enters Taurus today. I like most I have felt the energy of this Full Moon build all week. A Full Moon is when the Sun in Scorpio at 1 degrees fully illuminates the Moon, it also conjuncts Retrograde Venus in 4 degrees Scorpio. The Moon also conjuncts Uranus.

The Scorpio Sun at 1 degree wants some sort of emotional experience and Venus in retrograde at 4 degrees tells us that we are entitled and deserve to have an amazing emotional experience. The energy reminds you that “Yes” are meant to explore, experiment, have fun and live a little. It also invites us to dig deep, to seek and experience things you have never experienced before. Perhaps on the naughtier side of life. This week Venus and the Sun are both in a planetary placement that tempt you to try out new things, be adventurous behave in ways you normally wouldn’t.

The Full Moon is when the Sun sits opposite to the Moon at 180 degrees from each other. Full Moons are a time of strengthened intuition, heightened emotions, and you can observe unusual activity happening around you or occurring to other people. I can tell you the Full Moon makes my pets a little loony, and others can report some sleep disturbances!

This Full Moon in Taurus astrological speaking, with the rest of the universe in play is going to be pretty much bag of mixed energies. As I mentioned earlier we are in a Retrograde Venus however we also have Uranus, the planet of sudden change, revolt and the unexpected conjunct the Full Moon!

So my dear friends, ready or not BIG CHANGE is coming for us… The real challenge for us is going to be are we ready to embrace change, all the positive side and traits of Scorpio? Are you ready to go beneath the surface? To really let go of yourself and to feel intensely? Are you ready to allow yourself to transform? We must remember for change to occur we need to release old patterns and habits along with any old attachments. We must let our old identity die so we can embrace whatever change life throws at us. Particularly with all these retrograde about, telling and showing us the old beliefs that needs transforming.

This month’s Moon will be illuminated with Taurus energy that will shine down on us. Taurus energy is all about the real world, stability, structure,  finances, practicality, money, wealth, relationships, enjoying life, food, being grounded in nature, sensuality, physical body and beauty. This Full Moon is going to urge us to do something, to create something wonderful, something physical or birth something new in any of the areas I just mentioned.  This Full Moon is about  putting yourself out there and experience all the sensuality the world has to offer. Uranus the planet of eccentricity is sitting on top of Taurus stirring the pot for unexpected, radical excitement and unexpected change. This along with Venus retrograde will help illuminate you with all those twisted desires and energies that will results in physical manifestations and actions that in no means would you normally act on.

This Full Moon being in the sign of Taurus, will feel comfortable and safe. The Moon likes sitting in this sign, as we know the Moon represents our feelings and inner world. Taurus is about solidity and sensuality in aspects not only physical but in our taste, our touch, or views, using all the senses. Taurus is about if you can sense it and touch it, than it is real. The Moon in Taurus wants us to take a change, get rid of the feelings of old, the feelings that weigh you down and blur your vision of the beauty that is around you. Take all that stagnant, emotional energy and stomp it on the ground. Awaken your senses be alive! This transformational Full Moon combined with the Sun in Scorpio is really guiding us to in touch with our own complexity and how we respond in any relationship.

 

Happy Full Moon week!

Full Moon in Scorpio 2017.

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

On the 10th May , 2017 we will experience a Full Moon in the sign of Scorpio. The Full Moon as we Know happens once a month. It’s when the Sun and Moon are both at 180o apart and the Sun fully illuminates the Moon with its light. The Moon is at a completion point and reflects the light and showers its energy on us. The Full Moon always has an effect on us no matter who you are.

The Sun will be in Taurus and the Moon will be in Scorpio.

The Sun in Taurus will be at 20 degrees. Taurus is a very practical, earthy grounded sign. In numerology 20 breaks down to 2 and the number 2 is all about relationships and love! The Sun is experiencing this energetically along with all the other Taurus energy which also happens to be about love,relationships, practicality, finances and appearances. So this Taurus energy is also being thrown onto the Moon.

The Moon is sitting in the sign of Scorpio, which is also sitting at 20 degrees. The Moon will shower down on us Scorpio energy. Scorpio is a water sign, its intuitive, creative and emotionally intelligent. Scorpio is not afraid of exploring the dark side, its ruled by Pluto who is about transformation. Scorpio loves going were no other star sign dares to go. It holds extremely powerful and potent energy. It’s willing to look deeper, look at the taboo side of life its other favorable aspect is being able to look at the wounded self in order for healing and transformation to occur. We will be facing and confronting some fears during this Full Moon. Scorpio energy is all about transformation and reaching higher levels of consciousness. So we must awaken, open up our eyes and soul.

As I have mentioned this Full Moon is at 20 degrees and, the number 2 is all about relationships, and deepening and strengthening the connection, for all my single friends out there this is a good time to date and meet new people, use the full moon energy and meet new people, have a drink with the stranger at the bar, Scorpio energy is very intelligent so you will pick up who and who not to give your time to.

Scorpio energy is very much sexual, so for instance you and your partner who once were intimate very regular when you met and have now things have decreased, and well you may not of had the courage to bring this up and talk about it. Use the Scorpio energy to help bring any and all issue to surface. This Full Moon will support and help you and others with your emotionally understanding and help you both to have acceptance to what you are saying without the judgement. You will become open-minded and listen. So make the time, make an effort, wine and dine each other and bring out your inner god or goddess.

This Full Moon in Scorpio you will be feeling an intense emotional energy, you may feel you understand people for the better , life may click, emotionally reasoning will just make sense a lot of Ah Ha moments. Scorpio is very intense emotionally , it very deep and connected. This Full Moon if you and your partner whether its personal or business have been burying an issue deep, this Full Moon is the best time to sit down and talk about it,  clear the air.

This Full Moon is going to represent a turning point in the year for most of us and an opportunity to really embrace and accept any recent changes ( yes changes as much as we dig our heals in if its unwanted). See the failures or mishaps as a blessing, accept that there is a bigger plan and just breath and go with the flow. It going to bring about a powerful transformative shift that will really allow you to move forward.

Fun fact, many ancient cultures and astrologers have always believed that the Scorpio Full Moon is one of the most powerful for reaching out to guardian spirits and ancient ancestors. The high illuminated Scorpio energy has the potential to reach Divine levels of consciousness, so allow yourself to open up reach a new level and see things and the world  in a different light. Meditate under the light of the Moon, re charge your crystals, and with so much magic energy circling around what no better time to create your own Moon ritual and manifest your dreams.

Happy Full Moon!

Today the Lunar Cycle reaches its pinnacle point. Today we have a Full Moon in the powerful sign of Scorpio.The watery sign of Scorpio holds extremely powerful and potent energy. Its sassy, sensual, deep and very intuitive. This Full Moon will help uncover many mysteries and truths about us and others. I have written a post all about this full Moon in Scorpio for more in-depth look at what to expect.

The Moon quincunxes Mars in Gemini, opposes the Sun in Taurus and trines Neptune in Pisces. Today’s theme is TRANSFORMATION!!!!! All this energy is transformational and healing in a wonderful, positive and beautiful way, especially when it comes to love and romance. Today you will find you have the courage to be brave , you will dream bigger, you will take action, and its all about making your dreams come true along with finding opportunists to make your dreams happen. Keep your eyes, ears and mind open!

What seeds of intention and manifestations did you plant at the New Moon in Taurus two weeks ago? How has that process developed? What obstacles have you faced? What intensity and resistance has developed? Traditionally Full Moons are all about releasing what no longer serves us, it’s a time to release bad habits, fears, doubts, and cut cords of attachment to unhealthy situations, remove blockages so you can co create and manifest your dreams.

The Sun in Taurus opposes the Moon in Scorpio.This Taurus/Scorpio planetary aspect will help us deal with the balance between all that is yours (Scorpio) and all that is mine (Taurus). Finding balance and comprising will be the key for the day, as neglecting either will surely backfire on you.

Full Moon in Cancer 12/01/2017

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

This is an action packed Full Moon, it is igniting the Cardinal Grand Cross this energy will continue until 2020. The Full Moon in Cancer at 22 degrees opposes the Sun in Capricorn in 22 degrees. This Full Moon energy is about putting yourself and people first.

We have the first Full Moon of 2017 happening this week on Thursday and it is at 22o in the lovely sign of Cancer. I wont lie this will be very intense with the cardinal grand cross and the Moon in Cancer it makes for a very intense, emotional, sensitive and intuitive time. The Full Moon is fully illuminated and the Sun and the Moon are 180 o apart. The Moon shines it illuminating light on us and influences us the most powerfully and because it’s in the sign of Cancer it will be showering down Cancers energy. Its power will be strong as it is sitting in its ruling sign. The Moon is ruled be Cancer so its energy will be heightened, it feels at home in this sign. Cancer is a cardinal water sign so we need to be taking charge of our emotions , loyalty, family, intuition,feelings, bonds and connections with our self and others, creativity,all the intangible aspects of life. This week we will be flooded with all these aspects and all the emotional things surrounding us. This week we will really feel what life is about , this includes really feeling what our relationships truly are both personally and business . This week we are going to be forced to feel our feelings so those of you in denial will not have a good week.

Take note if you are an earth sign as you may struggle! Earth signs generally don’t like major change or over the top emotional displays for no particular reason.. However we are all human beings, we all have feelings and sometimes we need to have a massive surge of emotions to get it all out of our system, clear the emotional decks and most importantly, it is how we go about change. Change does not just happen by sitting at home and saying everything is OK, I am safe and lets keep things the way they are ( which is what most earth signs would like) However this is a Full Moon in Cancer and feelings will arise,  people will experience strong intense feelings and intense urges to express themselves.

What needs changing? what needs to be released? what needs to be emotionally balanced?

This First Full Moon of 2017 is in a sign that is all about self-care. Cancer is all about taking care of you, nurturing you. Cancer energy  is all about your foundation, how you nourish and nurture yourself, how you love yourself,  how you take care of you. This month self reflect and ask yourself.. are you kind enough to yourself? Do you make sure that your needs are meet? Do you have enough sleep? exercise? You time? The Calling of this month is to focus on extreme self-care.

The Full Moon is at 22 degrees. Now 22 is the master number of the builder, so all this emotional upheaval does have a purpose. Something that is going to be presented to you and for some it may happen in an uncomfortable way , feelings will come up and some feelings may surprise you , For some past emotional  issues that  you may have locked away or thought yo had dealt with will arise , it will be waving in your face and screaming ” Hello im here acknowledge me please ” It is important to feel these feelings, to acknowledge them this emotional reality is the key to what will happen to you through out the year to . This Full Moon will force you to do something, so take some time , think things through this week it is not a great time to make plans and take action. Instead it s a time to go deep and sit with your feelings, hear them as this will help us create change. The master number of the builder  tells us that the significant changes that come out of this Full Moon will affect us for a while, I am talking the big changes such as who we love, where we work , where you live.

So take some time, be in this present moment and figure out what will give you security? What will give you joy? What needs releasing? What patterns need to be broken order for you to grow? What habits need to be released in order for you to better nurture yourself?

Happy Full Moon

Venus is in Capricorn.

Venus squares  Uranus in Aires

The New Moon in Sagittarius

It’s a big day astrologically speaking today! The New Moon is in Sagittarius . As we know New Moons and Full Moons have significant influences on us as the energy is so powerful . The question you are going to ask yourself here is how can i express myself creativity and what new beginnings can i make in my creative life. What new doors could potentially open in your life?

Today Venus is in Capricorn , Venus the planet of beauty and creativity and Capricorn is earthy and practical, so Venus is ready to work! Venus squares Uranus in Aires, so there is a real unique driven sense of ” I have something to express” you may have a creative vision that you really care about and are ready to put the hard yard in. This square aspect also brings a wake up and shake up vibe energy into our love life, money situations and to help us create more beauty in our life.

The New Moon today at 7’42 Sagittarius is the commencing a new lunar cycle. This Luna cycle is all about pulling in extra energy and getting ready for the next monthly cycle and starting a new again. New Moons are about planting seeds of intentions and really focusing on what you want to create for this month ahead. The moon is dark and makes us reflect inwards on what we really desire and require in our life. The energy we are pulling in this month is Sagittarius energy. We might want to focus on some of the positive traits of the sign of the Archer , this includes being optimistic, enthusiasm, adventurous, honest, outspoken and independent. Now Sagittarius energy is very positive , it’s all about shooting your arrow ( like the senator that represents the sign ) at targets , making goals moving towards them, you are feeling quiet capable, strong, fast and ready to hit the targets.

Optimism, passion and positivity is a main feature to focus on this month when creating your intentions.  Sagittarius is a fire sign, and that relates to life purpose and creativity. Not to mention the New Moon happens in 7 degrees and the number 7 is all about creativity and mind-set. But don’t forget the darker side of this star sign, they tend to over do it, think in such big terms they over do expectations and shy away from relationships to be independent but not care if  feelings are bruised along the way.

So take time to do a simple New Moon ritual. You will want to try to complete the ritual after the exact time of the New Moon or within 24 hours.Keep it simple,use the positive energies of Sagittarius and incorporate them in when you  write down what you wish to begin, create, and increase in the upcoming cycle.

 

Happy New Moon Day

Full Moon Ritual

Published on by andycandypants4 Comments

Full moon Ritual

As the full moon is upon us, it’s time to reflect and release those things that no longer serve us. Let go of what you no longer need in your life or any aspect of yourself that you may have outgrown. The moon, being the closest astronomical mass to Earth, has a profound effect on us. When the moon is full, it is at its high tide of power, amplifying energies. The moon traditionally represents the emotional, nurturing, creative and feminine aspect of our lives. When the energy is intense and as powerful as this, it enables you to take action, have you ever felt a pull or an urge leading up to the full moon? Many people feel this intensifying energy, it is a sign that you may need to release energies that no longer serve you, and you can do this by performing a Full moon ritual.

The full moon period is a great time to take action towards your new moon intentions you made two weeks prior and is a great opportunity for some self-reflection. The full moon can shed some light on what could be holding you back and what needs to be released that’s standing in your way .

A Full Moon ritual is a powerful way to invoke the intention of releasing and Letting go. You can purge yourself of any old identities, frame of mind, attitudes, behavior and situations. You may wish to take an inventory of thoughts and beliefs no longer serving you, clean out your possessions. Remember, you can release anything emotionally, physically, mentally or spiritually.  Release any addictions such as food or drama, emotional vampires,  unhappiness in your job , relinquishing suffering involved in hurtful relationships.

You can also seek guidance from your spirit guides or angels to help highlight what is ready to be shed from your life. Tools to help you connect with your guides include oracle cards, journaling and automatic writing, or mediation. Trust the guidance that comes to you, your gut instincts are usually right.

Write down all the things you wish to release and give thanks for what it’s already served. After writing them down you can visualise them being released and healed, do this by performing your ritual sitting under the moon or at a window with the moon shining down.

 What you need

Pen, paper, lighter, candle, small bowls (if you intend on burning your notes) , water, sage and other personal objects such as crystals.

  1. Create a sacred space. Find a quiet, clutter free place to sit, place crystals or other special tokens around you.
  2. Clear your energy. Burn sage and clear your energy space, or you can imagine standing under a silver or bright white waterfall of pure light and allow all negative and lower energies to be cleared away.
  3. Light the candle, Take a few deep breaths, center yourself and then begin to write on the piece of paper what you wish to release from your life
  4. When you have finished your list, sign and date the page.
  5. Go into your heart space/chakra and declare “I now let this go. I ask you angels to please take this list for healing and transmutation, and I thank you, Amen.” Then place the piece of paper over the candle allowing the flame to light your page, you then place it in the bowl and watch as the flames consume and release your request to the universe for healing.
  6. Use your intuition to guide you. You may just want to sit under the moon and read your list aloud, or with a lit candle and not burn your page. You may want to meditate on what to let go of. Just the intention of releasing and letting go can work.

Just remember… our words have power. Saying – “Be Gone” audibly and loudly can be very freeing. Thank the spirits and angels. Be safe and don’t forget to have some fun.

November Super Moon 2016

Published on by andycandypants3 Comments

On Monday 14/11/16 we will get a chance to experience a once in a lifetime (or maybe twice for some of us) event. Sure most of us have witnessed amazing Moons and Super Moons but next week the Full Moon will be the closet to Earth than any other since 1948! This Full Moon in Taurus is known as “perigree moon” It’s a fancy scientific term for ” The Moons closet point to Earth on its orbit”  but for us mere Moon Children it means the Moon is going to extra bright, extra-large and more jaw dropping than ever!

Whilst Super Moons have been shown to affect the tides, it also has the power to affect us humans here on Earth ( no surprise as we are made up of 70% water). Super Moons are supercharged and have the profound ability to amplify our emotional, physical and mental state! Our energetic bodies are effected differently all depending on your own individual astrological charts. Full Moons have the power to heighten our energy and emotions, amplify our intuition, disrupt our normal sleep patterns (either over sleeping or not at all).

So what else does this mean ? Expect synchronicities, lucid dreams, ecstatic irrational emotional burst, sensitivity to the energy of people, places and animals.

Traditionally Full Moons are a time for releasing ,they are a time for closure, for letting go of what no longer serves a purpose your life, Full Moons are a time for finales. Take a look back over the last month or so.. is there something or someone who needs healing and letting go of? Change is certain, things pass away and new things come into existence.

This amazing Supermoon in Taurus will be very positive and practical! This Full Moon will provide us with an understanding of the physical and practical side of your life, like your career , health, relationships, money and the everyday day things that we all experience . This Supermoon provides us with a great insight into these areas of our lives and we can align our energy too really experience change!

Taurus is the most practical earth sign of the zodiac. It’s the bull, and the bull energy is interested in maintaining the status quo, security, is a much grounded energy. Taurus admires and adores beautiful things, luxury, money and well good food and eating. Taurus love connection with other people along with  physical health, and well all of the things that involve planet earth. With the illumination of the Supermoon these Taurus qualities will be shining down onto us.

If anything in your life to do with those areas that you are not satisfied with, this  is the time for change! Use this powerful energy for closure, resolve the issues that are outstanding, get busy, get practical, sort things out! Do the work and get things sorted.Work on the mundane things of life that can bring you inner peace, joy and satisfactions, making your life for the better.

Is your personal relationships suffering in any way? Discus the practical circumstances of your relationship , what needs to be worked out? talk it out and be ready to accept the terms that you both agree on.

With your physical health, look inwards, what isn’t working for you?? Get in line with your body, listen to your body, what is it saying? what are you putting into your body that (much to your dismay) is not agreeing with you? It is the time for change! Cut those carbs, start eating breakfast, get up and walk on your lunch break , small changes can have the biggest impact!

If you are feeling up in the air with this intense energy floating around, the best way to balance is to ground yourself. This can achieved by walking bare foot on the ground, put your feet in the sand, take a hike in nature, swim in the ocean or  in a lake. If you are into connecting with Crystals hold them, surround yourself , meditate, find what helps sooth and ground you and work with that.

Hope you survive and get some amazing photos of this spectacular Super Moon.

La Luna Eclipse… What are they all about?

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius

  August 18 2016

Arh nothing like a Full Moon Luna Eclipse in Aquarius on Thursday to help uproot all aspects of ourselves, no matter how hidden or buried deep with in.Luna Eclipses help us rid of ourselves of things that no longer serve us, our soul or our true divine higher self and life purpose.

As humans, it is normal that we avoid what’s painful and tend to stay in the safety of our comfort zones. Luna eclipses are a cosmic tool the universe uses to get us to pay attention to areas of our lives that need change.

Luna Eclipses want us to change (and change we do, whether we want to or not) They are dramatic and work very rapidly in shaking us on an emotional level. Luna Eclipses have a way of pushing us to pay attention to all areas of our life that need changing or purging and force us into action.

Luna eclipses are brilliant at illuminating ” Our shadow self” revealing hidden truths buried deep down within and more than often denied. Some of us may find it difficult to accept these aspects of our shadow self and others during this time. However if we’re willing to accept the good along with the bad however confronting or hard to digest ,it can be a magical moment of discovery paving the way of higher level of maturity.

Eclipses bring about unexpected events, forcing us into action

Eclipses are mediators of change. Eclipses help us break patterns, they allow us to make  progressive and creative  dynamics shift .

They are the real truth seekers.

The only way with an Eclipse is forward.

A Full Moon lunar eclipse can trigger emotional events.

Memories and dreams resurface.

 How to create a New Moon ritual

Published on by andycandypants13 Comments

How to create a New Moon Ritual

At each new moon , we can plant seeds for what we want to grow over the next 30 days. It can be literal “seeds” in terms of initiating new activities , meetings , joining a gym, organising importing events or enrolling in a course . Or it can be  symbolic ” seeds” , be creating rituals that help to ground our intentions. Through rituals we bring alive the magic forces that help create our intentions and heart desires.

Every New moon that comes around I use it as a checkpoint for my life, an opportunity to think of my hearts desires and as a self-examination of what I want to change and improve within, and around myself. Its like I get to re write a self “to do list”, it’s a mental, emotional and spiritual clean slate.

So new moons are all about

  • New beginnings
  • New Adventures
  • New Endeavor
  • New relationships
  • Positive changes
  • Optimism Hope and Faith

The New Moon is the perfect time to manifest what you wish to have in your life. It is a wonderful time to introduce new beginnings, projects and desires you wish for.

Setting your New Moon Intentions in Motion

I always begin by setting aside some time by myself at night, as its best done closer to when the moon’s power is full force. Don’t stress if this is not an option…  you can also do this in the morning, take yourself on a coffee date before work (I swear its written in a scared journal that this ritual is best done with the magic power of a coffee and melting moment cookie and if not I think it’s a new tradition that ill be passing on to anyone that will believe me).

Supplies you Need:

  • Notebook
  • Pen and coloured felt tip pens (For doodling and drawing magic unicorns and your new dream swim wear)
  • Your imagination

Optional supplies (That you would find at my New moon ritual)

  • Yummy scented Candle or incense burner, with lavender or peppermint to awaken the third eye and crown chakra,
  • Meditation music or relaxing sounds to help block out outside noise and help you unwind and refocus your energy to the task at hand. Or if silence or rock music is what helps you focus, than by all means I have created some very amazing wishes and intentions with Led Zeppelin playing in the background
  • Hot chocolate for  brain fuel (Because the brain can not store energy, it needs a continuous supply of fuel. As our brains consume 60 percent, or about 450 calories each day of the sugar coursing through our bloodstreams, that’s a justifiable couple of hot chocolates and a candy bar worth of energy)

Traditional ritual Supplies for the old school folks:

  • smudge sticks (Cleanse your sacred area with an opening prayer, a sage smudging)
  • incense 
  • meditation music
  • Crystal grid and/or alter with objects you find sacred or embody physically the goals you would like to achieve.

Here we go….

  • Light one or more candles, maybe create a crystal grid and/or alter with objects you find sacred, or embody physically the goals you would like to achieve like a picture of your camera to help you master photography, a clip of a place you want to visit, a picture of the body you want to achieve  ( through the intention of ercercise and diet trudst me there isnt a magic sure for weightloss).
  • Center your being and calm yourself in whatever way is appropriate for you. Take some deep cleansing breaths, turn on your meditation music to listen to, and/or leisurely sip on a cup of relaxing hot chocolate or herbal tea.
  • Relax, take it slow and let the wish and intentions flow
  • write in detail on what you would like to manifest ( it makes it easier to feel like you already have this when you can see it unfolding in your head in detail.)
  • Once you have finished writing your list, i what you want to manifest in your life remember that its very important to feel like these items are already yours, feel the emotion behind having them.. Happiness , joy, gratitude, motivated, empowerment, hope  and love.
  • It is essential that you keep your thoughts positive as this rises your vibrations. The universe responds to your vibrations like a magnet so happy, pleasant positive emotions carry high vibrations, so the universe will respond by giving you high vibrations gifts in return. Say if you want to attract wealth ,you think positive thoughts about money ( even if you don’t have much) and you focus on what you have not on what you don’t have. Same if you constantly give off low vibrations such as anger, impatience, worry, insecurity, blame and any other  negative thinking you will attract situations and people that reflect those vibrations, for example when something doesn’t work out and get mad and state ” nothing good every happens to me, or  im always the one who gets picked last, no one cares about me, im always get walked over by people, i hate the world” Emotional statements these (especially when you are mad, because you have so much powerful emotion behind saying them) tells the universe thats what yo want and that what you expect so it matches your vibrations. Understand?
  • Now this part is important, once you have set your new moon intentions and read over them, you must not over think or stress how they will come to you, no demanding ” why haven’t’ i got my new bike yet”, you need to trust the universe divine timing , if its meant to be it will be, and if you don’t get what you wished for, maybe it was not the right time for you to have it, I know it took me a few months of wishing for a new bike before one day i got to work and my boss had this cute white bicycle sitting in my office , he said he just bought it for his wife and she went for one rife on it and didn’t like cycling and he thought the bike suited me and how much i would enjoy cycling to work instead of waling each day….
  • When you do get to experience that magical feeling of crossing off an item off your list don’ forget to thank the universe for bringing it to you, after all the power of gratitude excels your power of manifestation

It should be noted, to keep in mind that our words and thoughts are vibrations, wether our words or thoughts are created subconsciously in positive or negative manor, so any intentions imagined, stated or written down carry power. So take care to really manifest exactly what you would like, by feeling that vibration. The saying “Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.” rings true here. And remember.. you are not to manifest anything regarding the free will of another person. So you can’t ask the universe to bring you a certain person, as the another person is involved has their own intentions you cannot control what he/she will do, and you cannot ask the universe to force someone to feel or act a certain way about you. So no trying to ask the universe to make Zac Effron to fall madly in love with you…. SIGH
