A new moon occurs each month and it offers you the chance to cleanse your space, set intentions and manifest what you want your future to look like. The energy around the new moon is one of new beginnings, as it represents the start of the next moon cycle, making it perfect for manifestation rituals.
There are a few tools you can use to help purify your space in preparation for the new moon, including sage, incense and crystals, and Aussie brand Cleanse & Co has created a New Moon Bundle ($65) including some of these goodies.
The kit includes a New Moon Candle, that has healing crystals within it, New Moon Bath Soak and a New Moon Crystal Kit. When used together, these three items can help enhance and support your cleansing ritual to kickstart the new moon phase and bring abundance to your life.
Before the next new moon on Sunday, August 8, it’s time to do a little decluttering. Make sure your space is tidy and clear away anything that is no longer serving you. For those in lockdown and spending all of their time at home, this is a particularly important step as it’ll help clear some of that stagnant energy.
Then, on the day of the new moon, create a little manifestation ritual. Light your New Moon Candle and pull out your New Moon Crystal Kit. The card included in the Crystal Kit will tell you what each stone can be used for, so keep these close during the ritual.
Complete your manifestation practice by jotting down 10 things you would like to see happen in your life in the coming weeks or months. Write these points in positive language and write in the present tense as if you have already achieved the goal. You can also recite a few of the intentions included in the bundle at this time.
Finish off this practice by taking a long luxurious bath with the Cleanse & Co Soak. The intention provided by Cleanse & Co for this ritual is as follows: “In this body of water under the new moon, I release and replace suffering, judgment & doubt with my new desires, goals & loving intentions.”
Now you’re ready to use the new moon energy to its fullest and create the change you want to see in your life. Manifesting is simply one part of the equation, with hard work needed to achieve these goals. Good luck and happy new moon!
