Take Advantage of the New Moon to Write Down Your Dreams and Goals: 10-18-09
Each month, I take advantage of the opportunity to renew my goals, dreams, and wishes on the new moon. Some astrologers say they new moon is a powerful day to get some ‘oomph’ and energy behind your goals and dreams.Regardless of whether you believe in astrology, take advantage of this day to take some quiet time to write down your career goals, relationship goals, fitness goals, spiritual goals, etc., etc. Here are some more details on this month’s new moon, which is in Libra. I would love to support you in your career and life dreams and goals so let me know how I can help!
This month’s new moon is this Sunday, October 18th at 10:34 am PDST / 12:34 pm CDST / 1:34 pm EDST.
October’s new moon is ruled by LIBRA…
Astrologically, the new moon is a very powerful to write down intentions/dreams/goals within 8 hours of the new moon (after the new moon occurs). Within/after 48 hours is still powerful. Here are some tips:
- Write up to 10 intentions (any more than that and the energy gets kind of displaced).
- It is best to hand write them (vs type)
- Each month, the new moon is ruled by a different astrological sign which rules certain aspects of life. Writing intentions in these areas is very powerful but you can write your intentions in ANY area of your life.
- Write your intentions in the positive… In other words, state what you want (don’t say what you don’t want or may just get that!).
If you want more details about new moon intentions, I get this information from a book called ‘New Moon Astrology‘ written by Jan Spiller. She has more specific info about the Libra new moon on her website too.
Libra is ruled by:
- Marriage, including: partnerships, agreements, sharing, interdependence
- samples from Jan’s book: “I easily attract and begin a happy, monogamous, committed relationship with a man (woman) with whom I experience mutual love (or whatever you want); OR – The exchange of love, support, and sharing easily reenters my marriage.
- Fairness, including: balance, equality, appreciation of opposite viewpoints, negotiation, counseling
- samples from Jan’s book: All thoughts of not being equal with others is easily lifted from me; OR – I effectively negotiate my situation with __________________ in a way that creates a win-win situation.
- Harmony, including: peace, beauty, art, decorations
- samples from Jan’s book: I easily add those decorating touches to my environment tat create a feeling of peace, happiness, and serenity; OR – I easily attract and begin working with the right feng shui specialist for me who makes those shifts in my home environment that result in my attracting into my life those things that I want.
- Teamwork, including: giving and receiving support, collaboration, supportive relationships, cooperation, team identity
- samples from Jame’s book: I am consciously aware that we are ‘all in this together’ and easily lend my support to others; OR – I easily cooperate with others in a healthy, happy way.
- Sociability, including: being companionable, tact, getting along with other people, one-on-one interactions, diplomacy, affinity for others
- samples from Jan’s book: I easily feel affinity for others and wanting to interact with them; OR – I am aware of feeling agreeable and at ease in social situations.
- Refinement, including: luxury, elegance, pampering, good taste, grace
- samples from Jan’s book: I am fully receptive and appreciative of being pampered by other; OR – I fully appreciate the luxury that is in my life.
- Loss of Self-Identity, including: codependency, appeasing behaviors, indecision, aimless debate
- samples from Jan’s book: The compulsion to like – and be liked by – everybody is totally lifted from me; OR – The notion that I must always be a ‘nice person is totally and easily lifted from me.
- In matters of restoring health, Libra rules: adrenal glands, buttocks, diabetes (sugar imbalance), kidneys
