On New Moons release the past, any habits, conditioning, thoughts, beliefs that aren’t authentic or no longer serve you.
Write them down, then burn them as you visualise and feel yourself let go with love and gratitude for how they have served you up until now.
New Moons are about Manifesting, so next plant the seeds of intention you want to sew, then water them with action. Write up to 10 intentions or affirmations to bring into your life over the next six months, by the Full Moon in SCORPIO.
Focus on areas and approaches that SCORPIO rules, such as:
- Empowerment
- Power
- Transformation
- Transcendence
- Hidden Truths
- Self Mastery
- Intensity
- Deep Bonding
- Sex
- Tribe
- Shamanism
- Crisis skills
Eg:
- I easily see the needs of others
- I find myself working with the politics of my job in a way thats beneficial to myself and others.
- I easily own and sit within my power as well as use it constructively
- I easily find myself gaining power by taking full responsibility and control of my circumstances.
- I easily find myself forgiving in a way thats empowering for me.
- I easily release all baggage from my childhood and past relationships
- I easily find myself experiencing mutual empowerment and transcendence in a way that’s healthy and happy for me.
- I easily find myself accepting and master of my own emotional depth.
- I easily find myself enjoying a deep sexual, passionate and transformative relationship with ……
Mercury, planet of communication is conjunct this new Moon, which lends and air of conscious mental delving or sharing. An easy flow (trine) to Neptune lends the chance for transcendence. Dreams really do come true. Do the work, the emotional scouring and purging. In more tangible words, ‘OWN.YOUR.SHIT’.
Face it, ferret through it consciously, be your own detective and look what ever you find square in the eye, thank it for its help so far, and release it. Your demons are you own and they’re as happy to leave you as you are to leave them. So let them go. Deep energy work is helpful, psychotherapy, or even ecstatic dance can be helpful now. Sex magic is particularly potent.
Currently I’m writing this New Moon Post in India. They’re just finishing up their biggest festival of the year, Diwali. It coincides with the New Moon in SCORPIO every year and celebrates coming out of the dark and into the light. A fantastic analogy for the energy available at this time.
Here’s an example. Today I was talking with one of the guests where I’m staying in Kerala, a lovely fellow Australian who happens to be a school principle on health leave due to a broken knee.
The break happened when she slipped on her bathroom tiles..what was she thinking about at that moment? She was thinking about a staff member under her directorship who she is struggling to accept (due to something she did), and find a place of overview that her position demands. This has been an obsession and she’s not wanted to go to work because of it. It has that much power over her. What are the benefits of the breakage? She gets 7 months off work and away from facing the problem! Scorpio is absolutely ruthless in demanding you face your truth and do what you know you need to do for yourself. If the principle had dealt with the problem she wouldn’t have unconsciously fallen and broken her knee to buy herself the freedom or avoidance she sought.
The work is still there to do but even bringing the scenario to light like that is a big step in the right direction. The next step is to draw back her power. Find what in herself this woman represents, what shunned part, and bring it to light. What actually is the ‘issue’ in terms of her inner self, not the external story alone.
Plant the intention now to see, face and invest in yourself so you aren’t continually slapped about the face with it. Plant the seeds of transcendence, what ever and where that is for you.
Through courages deep sharing and bonding, freeing your wild sexual nature, risking your vulnerability or facing your deepest fears.
Let me know how it goes!! (I can keep a secret ; )
Personally I’m literally looking like I’ve been slapped in the face with my shadow ‘stuff’.
It’s emotional and harbouring its toxicity has toxified my blood and rendered my system incapable of efficient detoxification. It reads like a text book Scorpio story and I can admit it.
So for me this New Moon is all about following my own advice, dealing with it and doing the work to transform learnt relating habits and situations that don’t work for me, transcend and walk ‘right relating’, as the eastern scriptures say.
In respect for the deep,
