New Moon Magic! ✨

Before we begin, make sure you know everything about Lunar Magic and what each moon phase represents.

  • There are 8 lunar phases and we can group them into 4 stages: New Moon, Waxing Moon, Full Moon, and Waning Moon.

Spiritually, the New Moon is associated with rebirth and new beginnings so it’s an ideal time to plant the seeds of what you would like to see grow in your life.

Instead of casting a manifestation spell, set an intention for the cycle that begins: Cleanse yourself and your sacred space, meditate, and renew your commitment to any resolutions you have made in the past.

    Honoring my deceased father on father’s day and the new moon. I received a message that when you give or share what you have out of love, you reap the joy of that gift many times. I prepared a Solstice charm with rose quartz, a pearl, acorn cap, many of several kinds of flowers that grow in my container garden and gave it to a friend today. Before the day was over three joyous things came into my life.
