New Moon

Updated: Jan 30

New moons are a great time to start something you want to build on, like a new habit, project, or relationship with Self. In addition, each moon/month helps propel specific projects more than others. I encourage you to create and perform a spell of your own because it's the best way to learn to trust yourself. It can be as simple or elaborate as you want. (If you go high magic, check out my Calling the Quarters post for invoking the elements.) Although we're in Aquarius season, tonight's moon is in Capricorn so here are a few things to consider when deciding how to proceed.


Basic Energy during this time:

structure, patience, thrift, diplomacy, sincerity, restraint, justice, law & order, self-discipline

Students: This is a fortuitous time for political science majors


Suggestions:

Learn to work with authority, rules & organized structure.

Open a savings account

Call for divine justice

Spellcast for a job promotion

Create order from chaos

Use the Justice card from the Tarot's Major Arcana

Here are a few examples of the Justice card that you can print and use, if called to.





Be Mindful of your ruthless ambition while spellcasting this month. Remember another aspect this moon covers is diplomacy and restraint, so focus on small steps this month


Colors: Use Indigo wherever possible- You can wear it, or incorporate candles, flowers, ink, or stones that are indigo


Tools: Capricorn is connected to the Earth element which favors

prosperity, employment, stability, and fertility (again there's a focus on solid practical moves)

If you can incorporate stones, dirt, part of a tree*, knots, or herbs


Weather is important to consider

Where I live, it's winter which means this new moon is an excellent time to commit to magickal practice/ study/ diligence

*The Rowan tree is associated with January, so if you've got that on hand, the spirit of Rowan will be ready to help with strength and protection

Symbols:

Earth







Capricorn








You can easily look up symbols representing the theme of your spell online. (strength/protection, finances....etc)


If you've never done anything like this before, remember a spell, regardless of how simple or elaborate, needs a beginning, middle, and end. I will use a simple Protective Stone Spell as an example.

1. Clear your space & mind from the day and State your Intention

Sit on the earth outside with a small stone in your hands and Call in protective energies to your Self

2. Embody how you would feel when your intention comes true & DO THE RITUAL

Chant the following allowing your volume to rise :

Stone, evil you shall deny.

Send it to the earth & sky

Send it to flame & sea

Stone of Power, protect me!

3. Offer gratitude do spirit/ your tools/ the earth/yourself and TRUST in your magick

Carry the stone with you at all times (purse/pocket/necklace/mojo bag). It will create a protective force around you.

That is plenty to work with for now. For future analytics, document your mood, the weather and how you feel before, during and after the ritual and then again once it comes true.


I hope this helps. Have fun! I would love to know how your experience goes.

Blessings!
