Born under a new moon moon

The new moon comes when the Moon sits between Earth and Sun, so its lit side faces away from us and the sky looks dark. Traditionally it is the time to begin, but softly: to rest, imagine and name what you hope to grow. People born under a new moon are often described as instinctive starters who lead with fresh energy and may not always see where they are heading at first. If you are living through this phase, it can suit quiet planning, a clean slate and saying yes to something new.

Write three intentions on a slip of paper, each beginning with the words I am ready to. Fold the paper, keep it somewhere special and read it again when the moon is full.

The Moon in Gemini

With the Moon in Gemini, minds get busy and conversations multiply. The day often feels light, curious and a little scattered, with messages flying and plans changing. It suits writing, errands, short trips, networking, reading and picking up new facts quickly. Attention spans can be short, so breaking tasks into bite sized pieces helps. It is also a lovely time to catch up with siblings, neighbours or friends you have not spoken to in a while.
