New Moon

For some the new moon begins at the moment when the sun and moon are aligned in the same sign, but for others it remains the dark moon until the crescent is in sight.

During this time we may instinctively find ourselves seeking solitude, turning towards our deepest self. Think of it as a time of rest like the dormant seed lying beneath the winter snow waiting for the warmth of the sun to return. The never ending cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.

As the moon wanes towards darkness which lasts about three days, our dreams shift and change, reflecting our inner and outer life, our past, present and future. They are a potential source for great wisdom and guidance, therefore preparing us for the new beginning that the new crescent moon will bring.

During the dark of the moon it is important for us to pay attention to the ebb and flow of our energies. If we find ourselves feeling tired and out of sorts, we should take some time to relax and meditate to clear our mind and spirit, to recharge our batteries so that healing and renewal can happen.

Stillness is the key . . . a chance to listen to our inner voice.

Everyday Goddessing  is about sharing magical techniques and sacred wisdom with other beautiful Goddess women. I believe that within every woman there is a goddess, a wise woman, beautiful, creative, powerful, with a deep soul, and that everything we need and are looking for is already inside  each of us. – Rose Arizmendi
