In celebration of this lunar phase, I’ve compiled a list of practices I’m implementing to prepare for what I wish to manifest. There are numerous aspirations I hold dear this time around.

What Significance Does the New Moon Hold?

Throughout history, the lunar cycle has been celebrated and acknowledged by various civilizations. Temples and pyramids were often dedicated to the moon, marking the passage of time and the cycles of life. My interest in this cycle stems from a spiritual perspective, prompting me to download an app that tracks lunar phases and offers insights about them. Interestingly, it seems that the iPhone calendar omits this information. If it does include it, please let me know!

Our journey into intermittent fasting was inspired by this app, a testament to how the lunar cycle can influence our lives in unexpected ways.

The Connection Between Astrology and Life Events

In my spiritual journey, I’ve noticed that astrological phases often align with my life experiences. Whether it’s a subconscious connection or simply a placebo effect, the synchronicities are undeniable. According to Cosmopolitan, New Moons are ideal for rejuvenation and manifestation. They present an opportunity to fill any voids in your life, whether it’s a new experience, relationship, or possession. During this phase, it’s essential to create space for new beginnings and transformative experiences.

Manifesting During the New Moon

While the idea of engaging in reckless behavior may not resonate with me, I wholeheartedly embrace the concepts of manifestation and renewal. Here’s how I’m currently channeling this energy:

1. Clearing Clutter: Letting go of the old to make room for the new.
2. Making Moon Water: Creating a tangible representation of my intentions.
3. Journaling: Writing as if my dreams have already come true.

The essence of this practice lies in the feelings it evokes. For instance, decluttering brings a sense of relief, almost as if lifting a heavy burden off my shoulders. With two young children, the accumulation of toys and clothes can be overwhelming, but last night we managed to donate four bags of toys. It felt like discovering a hidden space within our home.

Journaling can be incredibly therapeutic, especially when envisioning the life I aspire to live. What does that life encompass? What sensations accompany it? I strive to immerse myself in detail, as if recounting events that have already unfolded.

In addition, creating moon water allows me to engage with my visions on a physical level. I can feel the strength of the stones, smell the fresh mint, and taste the calming chamomile. For guidance on making moon water, check out my article on the Strawberry Supermoon.

Does Manifestation Really Work?

Absolutely! However, the experience varies for each individual. The magic often resides in appreciating the small moments rather than expecting immediate results. While I’m eagerly anticipating potential lottery winnings from a couple of favorite sites, I remind myself to dream big.

After our decluttering session last night, I plan to clean my entire home today. This morning, I engaged in my usual affirmations and watched a new video designed to help me attract my desires. Check out the video below to learn more about creating your own manifestation practice.

Following my affirmations, I listened to Tony Robbins’ priming video on YouTube while journaling about the life I wish to manifest. According to guidance from an Instagram influencer, I should fold my journaling paper towards me and place it beneath my moon water tonight. In the morning, I’ll metaphorically and literally absorb my manifestations.

Since I began this routine, I've noticed curious shifts in my life. My previous health insurance reimbursed me unexpectedly, items I had listed for sale began to sell, and my book sales have surged. My family and I are thriving, though it’s not the lottery yet, these small victories accumulate and create joy.
