NEW MOON WISHING

We are approaching this month's New Moon which will be traveling through the sign of Sagittarius and turning precisely "new" at 12:35 pm on Sunday.

New Moons are magical. Tradition holds that our wishes and prayers are most likely to be heard around the time of a New Moon.

How ?

Follow these instructions from Yasmin Boland who is based in Australia & is one of our favorite on-line astrologers:

Start your New Moon wishes now. Because the New Moon this month is a New Moon eclipse, it'll be extra powerful! Remember, we can't get what we want until we know what we want. It's all about being clear in our intentions.

Grab some paper and coloured textas, and start writing and doodling your Top Ten hearts' desires. Write down one wish a day - draw curlicues and hearts and flowers around it as you contemplate having it come true. The more thought and energy you put in, the more likely your intentions are to manifest.

New Moon = Make A Big Wish Time!

Each month we get a New Moon and a Full Moon.  The Full Moon creates excitement because it's big and bright and always sends lots of energy which creates *energetic* times!  The New Moon, on contrast, gets little notice because it can't be seen and the sky appears dark on the nights of a New Moon.  BUT, it's the New Moon that, according to legend, is the best moon under which to throw out to the universe our wishes, prayers, and intentions.  When we make a wish or say a prayer (or start a project or begin a relationship or whatever (!)) it's most likely to be heard by the universe under a New Moon than at any other time of the month.    

Throw your wishes and prayers out to the universe on and around the days of a New Moon and see what happens!  Your wishes can either be spoken out loud or thought silently - be simple or extravagant - it all works, but for extra emphasis I sometimes write down my intentions, read them out loud or in my head, and then set them on fire (safely!) and let the wind carry them.  

Today - November 6, 2010 - is the day of this month's New Moon.  Hence, the beginning of my blog.  A new start under a New Moon!
