NEW MOON IN ARIES MAGICKS & TIPS

Hello my loveys! Here we are again on the brink of a New Moon in Aries. I hope we have done all the necessary things to clean out our space between the past Full Moon in Virgo (March 16, 2014) and now. This New Moon in Aries is really like a fresh start of the year, where you plant your seeds for the next 6 months. Whatever you start now will come to a completion or answer by the Aries Full Moon in October.

I love New Moons, and the potential they offer us. Full moons get a lot of hype (you know, the whole magical, lunacy thing it has going on) but if you want more bang for your buck, find out when the New Moon is and tap that energy. Every New Moon has a theme, a mood and a lesson. Depending on which sign the New Moon is in, and where it falls in your chart, and how it affects your rising and sun sign is key to knowing how to make the New Moon Magicks work for you.

First? Lets get your tools.

What you need:

Pen/paper – write down what you hope to plant the seed for during this New Moon

Candle – this depends from month to month depending on which sign the New Moon falls in

Herbs/Oils- same applies for candles.

This New Moon falls in Firey Aries. The role of Aries in astrology is the ego, of drive and that extra umpoof.

For this New Moon, I would advise choosing a red, yellow or orange candle. Since Aries is a fire sign you need to honor that energy, as well as the brand new spring energy (even if its still miserable and cold outside) The herbs I would choose is anything hot; cinnamon, cayenne, ginger and/or clove. These herbs add a little something extra, like passion, focus and intention to your new moon wishes. This is a potent new moon, so make the most of it.

Once you have your candle, hold it in your hand and think about what you would like to plant the seeds for during this New Moon, and what you would like to manifest. Get your  herbs/oils, rub it on the candle. If you don’t have any essential oils, use olive oil on the candle, and maybe add a touch of honey to the mix, to add sweetness to the fire you are looking to start in your heart and your life. I tend to use dried herbs on my candles. I would make sure to get a shorter candle to burn, since it needs to burn to its completion for it to truly be potent. If you are worried about burning your house down, put the candle in your kitchen sink. That should keep it safe enough.

That’s easy enough.

In general, for New Moons, I like to make sure to get some cinnamon sticks to burn. They burn very slow, with little to no flame. It’s more of a gesture. Cinnamon is great for drawing in love, passion, protection and money. It’s a herb associated with fire, so it’s great to give a boost to any project.

I like to make sure I put a little rose oil essence and peppermint oil in my shower gel. Peppermint is great for protection and prosperity, while rose oil is a must; after all how can you manifest anything if your heart is not open? Rose oil will help you with that, as well as helping you create with love, and attracting love into your efforts. The first few days of a New Moon is especially potent, so use these days to shower with the magic concoction.

Have fun manifesting.
