Step-by-Step New Moon Ritual


Step 1: Cleanse Your Space

Begin by purifying your environment with a sage stick or palo santo. Light your smudge stick and allow the smoke to cleanse the room, yourself, and any objects you’ll be using. As you do this, set the intention to clear away old energy and make room for fresh possibilities.


Step 2: Light Your Crystal Candle

Choose a candle that aligns with your manifestation goal and light it with intention. As the flame flickers, visualise it igniting your desires and sending them out into the universe.


Step 3: Hold Your Crystals and Set Intentions

Hold your chosen crystals in your hands, close your eyes, and take a few deep breaths. Think about what you want to manifest this lunar cycle. Speak or mentally affirm your intentions with conviction.


Example intentions:

  • “I am ready to welcome love and abundance into my life.”
  • “I release fear and embrace new opportunities.”
  • “I am aligned with my highest potential and purpose.”


Step 4: Write Your Intentions in Your Journal

Grab your journal and write down what you wish to manifest. Be as specific as possible and phrase your intentions as if they are already happening.


Example journal prompts:

  • What do I want to manifest this month?
  • What habits or energies do I need to release?
  • How do I want to feel moving forward?


Step 5: Recite Affirmations

Affirmations help reinforce your desires. Speak them aloud while looking in a mirror or writing them in your journal.

 

Powerful new moon affirmations:

  • “I am open to new opportunities and endless possibilities.”
  • “I trust the universe to guide me on my path.”
  • “I am worthy of receiving my desires.”


Step 6: Meditate and Visualise Your Manifestations

Sit in a comfortable position, hold your crystals, and close your eyes. Visualise your goals as if they are already happening. Feel the emotions of joy, success, or love as you imagine your desires coming true.
