Today the 4th of August is new moon day. New moon blessings to you. Every 28 days or there about, the moon renews its cycle. The new moon is the start of a new cycle. Traditionally this is a time for new beginnings, new projects, to start something new. Working with the energy of the new moon, adds natural energy from nature, to add extra support and make it easier to achieve new beginnings.

This August new moon is focusing on Love, Vulnerability, Passion, Brightness, Authenticity, Giving yourself permission, calmness, self expression, authentic expression and being grounded. Today if you can, before 6pm local time, you can spend some quiet time a few minutes in meditation or prayer, then shortly afterwards with a journal, looking at the areas of focus for this new moon, I.e love, vulnerability, authentic self expression….. write down, in what areas of your life do you need these energies? How can you focus on that area to invite or increase these energies?

For example, you may want to increase your brightness for your company, for your company to be more public, seen and the work you do recognized. How can you invite or increase brightness in this area of your life?

You could also want to cultivate being calmer in your personal life, say with your partner, or your children. Take sometime, when you do this, you open a connection, to connect deeper with yourself, the universe and your guiding forces, with what you truly need, desire and deserve.

Consciously plant your seeds for the next few months, of the things you would love to experience, grow, change and transform in your life. Of the blessings you would love to receive from the universe. Decide how you are going to take care of the seeds you’ve planted, allow the universe to make this happen for you, in the quickest, easiest, efficient and effective way, by working with the energy of the new moon.

See it, feel it, imagine it, experience the things you are calling in, shifting, changing as if they have happened. Give thanks, and watch how they simply unfold in the next few months, by paying conscious awareness, to these areas of your life you have opened to receive changes. Some other symbolic things to do on a new moon day; wash your clothes, clean, leave an empty space like you are expecting it to be filled, with the blessing(s) from this new moon.

Have a blessed new moon day wherever you are in the world. Ire o! Blessings.
