New Moon: Her Powerful Emergence
Life begins in the dark, deep in the womb, in the chrysalis and in the fertile earth. When the moon is new she is not visible to us in the sky. At new moon, the sun and moon are concentrated energy in the same sign of the zodiac. They travel through the sky together and rise and set at the same time. New moon is a time for focusing energy. This is not a time of objectivity. As we dream in the dark, this is a time to plant the seeds of your dreams, goals, new projects or anything you want to initiate and take to fruition. What has outlived its purpose is ending and something new is about to emerge. At the exact moment she is new, we are between the worlds of past and present, death and rebirth; the next moment she begins waxing.
