Manifesting with the moon
April 20th New Moon in Aries Solar Eclipse
The new moon is in Aries again, this month and it aligns with a solar eclipse.
Aries gives us strong impulses to take action in personal plans, independence, and strong focus. The solar eclipse carries that energy forward for the next 6 months
New beginnings and long-term changes are coming.
This eclipse can highlight and challenge our issues surrounding independence and personal courage. Take steps toward releasing what no longer serves you and holds you back while finetuning areas where you might need more skills of knowledge.
Some situations can come up to encourage us to see where we haven’t been true to our authentic selves. And an understanding that changes or endings are necessary for our own growth, and that we can handle these things when we embrace the positive aspects of being straightforward, sincere, and brave. Changes made can benefit us long after this moon cycle ends.
It’s a powerful time to re-evaluate our relationship with ourselves. This next phase is going to be an adventure, a time to express ourselves and break the routine by doing something new and if a different way. Honestly, this could be a very uneasy even jolting time for many. The words “Surrender to the unknown” keep going through my mind. Additional time in grounding practices will be beneficial at this time as well.
With this eclipse, we may have a strong urge to act on impulse. It’s important to avoid jumping to conclusions and asserting ourselves without considering others’ feelings and reactions. There is a big difference between asserting ourselves from a place of healthy confidence and asserting ourselves brashly and blindly, which can give us a false sense of confidence or bravery.
A good affirmation during this time:
“I surrender to the unknown, the Universe has my back”
Essential oil: Himalayan or Atlas Cedarwood, Patchouli, and Vetiver
Earthy and woody scents have the most harmonizing and stabilizing effect on emotions during and after an eclipse.
Crystals to use during the new moon solar eclipse:
Red crystals and stones like red quartz and red jasper are very grounding and black and yellow stones line tourmaline and citrine can represent the light and darkness of this phase
Some things to journal about during this new moon:
What do I need to let go of now?
What do I need to do to take care of myself during this time of change?
What new things will I try or do in a different way?
Happy New Moon, With Love & Gratitude,
Holly
