New Moon Rituals

I been always fascinated by the moon . Recently I have come across the moon rituals happening every month . I truly believe that it does have an effect on us . On our body and mind , different phases of moon and moon light and the cosmic energy. Since Jan 2nd,2021 is the new moon, Here are the simple steps am going to follow :

1. Set a time .Stick to the same time every new moon so that your mind gets into the state .

2. Have a dedicated space.

3. Lit incense sticks

4.Take a pen and journal. Write down your ur intentions for this month.what is it that matters the most to you at this stage of life. What is the direction you are steering your life to.Have a Affirmations about that.

Questions to ask: How am I feeling right now? What am I still resolving from this last cycle? How did I change in the last month? What did I learn? What feels exciting for me at this time? What feels blocked for me? What is the thing I’m most yearning for at this moment? What do I need most at this phase in my life? What will be my guiding theme this cycle? 

5. Visualization. Close your eyes and visualize having your intentions successful. 6. Say a prayer

While you are clearing yourself you can recite the following smudging prayer which I adopted from Deepak Chopra: May my hands be cleansed, that they create beautiful things. May my feet be cleansed, that they might take me where I most need to be. May my heart be cleansed, that I might hear its messages clearly. May my throat be cleansed, that I might speak rightly when words are needed. May my eyes be cleansed, that I might see the signs and wonders of the world. May this person and space be washed clean by the smoke of these fragrant plants. And may that same smoke carry my prayers, spiraling, to the heavens.

7.Practice meditation for 15 minutes at least
