New moon rituals are often associated with setting intentions, planting seeds, and initiating new beginnings. Here are some examples of new moon rituals you can try:

1. Intention Setting: Take a moment to reflect on your goals and aspirations. Write down your intentions for the upcoming lunar cycle. Be specific and heartfelt. Visualize yourself already achieving those intentions.

2. Cleansing Ritual: Cleanse your space by smudging with sage or burning palo santo. You can also use essential oils, candles, or incense to purify the energy of your environment. As you cleanse, imagine releasing any negativity or stagnant energy.

3. Moon Bathing: Spend time outdoors under the moonlight during the new moon. Find a comfortable spot and simply soak in the moon’s energy. You can meditate, journal, or perform any other mindful activity while connecting with the moon’s energy.

4. Sacred Bath: Take a ritual bath with Epsom salts, essential oils, and herbs. As you soak, imagine yourself being cleansed and rejuvenated. You can also visualize releasing any negative emotions or experiences from the previous lunar cycle.

5. Tarot or Oracle Card Reading: Use tarot or oracle cards to gain insights into the energies and opportunities that the new moon brings. Pull cards with the intention of receiving guidance and clarity for the upcoming cycle. Reflect on the messages and contemplate how they relate to your intentions.

6. Moon Journaling: Set aside time to journal about your dreams, desires, and reflections during the new moon phase. Write down your intentions, dreams, and any insights you’ve gained. You can also write letters to the moon, expressing gratitude or seeking guidance.

7. Crystals and Moon Charging: Cleanse and charge your crystals under the new moon. Place them in a spot where they can absorb the moon’s energy overnight. The next day, you can use these charged crystals in your meditation, carry them with you, or place them on your altar.

Remember, the most important aspect of any ritual is your intention and personal connection. Customize these rituals to suit your preferences and beliefs. Check out our calendar for upcoming new moon ceremonies.
