Welcome to this moment of stillness on the new moon.
Gently close your eyes or soften your gaze and begin to notice your breath.
Let your inhale expand softly down to your belly and release any tension on the exhale.
Feel yourself arriving right here,
Right now.
The new moon is a sacred time of darkness,
A blank canvas in the sky.
Spiritually,
It represents new beginnings,
Intention-setting,
And possibility.
Like the moon resetting its cycle,
You too are invited to embrace the power of your humanness,
To release what no longer serves you,
And to plant seeds for what you wish to grow.
Breathe in this sense of renewal and breathe out anything heavy you are ready to leave behind.
Now in your mind's eye,
Visualize the night sky on a new moon,
Clear,
Vast,
A dark canvas.
Imagine yourself at peace and ease in the darkness,
Safe and held,
Ready to begin again.
As you rest in this space of new beginnings,
Ask yourself,
Where might I find a new beginning from the darkness in my life?
How might this new moon support me in seeing what's possible by trusting that light is on the way?
Perhaps it's with more courage.
Perhaps it is love,
Trust,
Or forgiveness.
Feel that possibility expand within you.
On your next inhalation,
I invite you to bring your hand to your heart space and silently repeat to yourself,
I embrace new beginnings and honor the cycles of my life.
Now taking a final big,
Deep inhale,
Letting your heart open to new possibilities,
And exhale,
Grounding in trust.
When you're ready,
Gently blink your eyes open and return to the world carrying this fresh energy of the new moon within you.
May you remember that like the new moon,
Life goes in phases.
Today is the perfect day to begin again.
Happy new moon.
