The Moon is one of the fastest moving celestial bodies in our solar system. It spends an average of 2.5 days in each sign of the zodiac and follows a 28 day cycle. The cycles of the Moon are very similar to that of a female’s menstrual cycle, however when in tune with their bodies, men will also feel the effects of Mother Moon as she radiates down in the night sky. The tides of the ocean are also effected by the Moon, as is the salt water that arises within our own bodies. It is in water that energy and emotions are stored, which is why on the night of the Full Moon we can feel our emotions stronger than most. When the Moon is full, it often signifies completion or ending. Often we are able to fully express ourselves and know the direction forward from within our souls. On the night of the New Moon, when the moon is dark and not yet visible, it is a time to go within. It is a time to plant the seeds that will flourish and bloom when the Moon is full again.
The New Moon is an opportunity for introspection and to go within. It is a time to delve inside yourself and to work out what you really wish to manifest for your life. When you sync your energy up to the vibration of the Moon, not only will you feel more in tune with your emotions, but you will also be able to vibrate in harmony with your more intuitive side. When the Moon is in one of the twelve constellations, it gives off a subtle change in energy and these energies can be used to help manifest and create the life of your dreams. Making initiations, plans and setting goals for yourself when the Moon is in a favorable spot can be like tapping into your own secret source of magic. The Moon is purely magical and when you learn to use her energies, you will be able to tap into the depths of your soul.
