Libra Super New Moon Ritual: step by step

1. Start by cleansing your aura

Start by cleansing your aura and then your surroundings. As you cleanse your aura recite the following mantra:

“It is time to cleanse away the past. It is time to cleanse all that keeps me in the dark. The old is now washed away and I am ready to face a new day. My world is evolving and I am too. Always moving higher, always feeling lighter, always striving to do my best, and now my worries are laid to rest. I am cleansed, I am free. I am whole, I am healed. Thank you”.

2. Cleanse your surroundings

As you cleanse your surroundings, recite the following:

“I cleanse my space with light and loving energy. All energies in this space that no longer serve me are now cleared. All energies that are dense and heavy are now cleared. I fill this room with light and love. Thank you, thank you, thank you”.

3. Light your candles

Before lighting your candles, tie them together using the string or ribbon. Leave a little space between them so you can cut them free later in the ritual.

4. Close your eyes and merge yourself with the energy of the Earth

You can perform this step standing up with your feet firmly planted on the ground – to feel yourself rooted to the Earth – or sitting with your feet flat on the floor.

Then, place your hand over your heart and just feel into your body. Be focused only in you. Feel free to experience your own emotions. Do this for the duration of 10 breaths.

5. Open your eyes

Open your eyes and with your hand still over your heart repeat the following – “I am balanced from top to toe. I am centered in who I am” – or feel free to say whatever you feel in the moment.

6. Write your mantras

Now, in front of your candles, take the two pieces of paper and, on the first one, choose one of the following journal prompts to write about. Write until the entire page is filled so you can really get into the depths of your subconscious.

• “I need to forgive…”
• “Letting go of this relationship will bring me…”
• “I no longer want to hold on to…”

Once you have finished writing, fold the paper and place it in front of the candle to your left.

Now, on your second piece of paper, repeat the same process using one of the following prompts:

• “I am ready to do this differently…”
• “Love feels like…”
• “I open myself to…”
• “My guides and angels want me to remember…”
• “I can begin paving a new way by…”

Fold your paper and place it to the candle on your right.

7. Cut the cords

Now, take your scissors and hold them in your dominant hand. Recite whatever it is that you want to release, let go of or “cut” from your life. Once done reciting, cut the string between the candles.

Once the cord has been cut, see if you can observe any feelings or sensations that arise. Place your hand over your heart and take another 10 deep breaths, just allowing yourself to feel in to where you are.

To close the ritual, snuff out the candles and discard the ribbon. Smudge your aura and space one last time.
