The Scorpio New Moon on November 4-5th, 2021 is the last New Moon before Eclipse Season begins.
It carries transformative energy, helping us to make progress in any areas in our lives where we feel stuck, uncertain, or in an “in-between” phase.
The Scorpio New Moon is also highly sensitive and may stir our deeper emotions, encouraging us to visit our shadow side and perhaps expose where we may be holding on to uncomfortable emotions such as shame, guilt, and regret.
How can we sit with all that is uncomfortable and love ourselves through what we feel?
Here is a ritual to guide you-
Scorpio New Moon Ritual
This ritual is best done between October 26-November 12, 2021. Please note the Starry Night Meditation was first released in November 2020.
You will need:
- Cleansing tool of choice (eg. dried herb sticks, incense, etc.)
- Starry Night Cosmic Meditation
- Paper and Pen
- Small rubber band/piece of string
- Your favorite crystal
Instructions:
1.) Find a comfortable place where you can’t be disturbed. Start by cleansing your aura, followed by your surroundings. As you cleanse your aura, feel free to recite the following-
“The darkest shadows buried within me, may they now rise to the light for clearing. I feel shame, doubt, insecurity, and fear leaving my body, leaving this space, and being recycled back into the Earth where it can blossom into something new. I am a beautiful, incredible, wonderful, loving person. As I acknowledge this and my love for myself, I cleanse and charge my energy field from top to toe. It is my love that cleanses me. It is my strength that holds me. It is my willingness to forgive myself that allows me to grow. I am cleansed. I am recharged. Thank you.”
As you cleanse your surroundings, feel free to recite the following:
“This space radiates loving, positive energy. Only goodness resides here. Only love can enter. This space is a calm, pure, and peaceful place that allows me to practice this ritual safely and in my fullest power. Thank you.”
2.) Get nice and comfortable and do the Cosmic Guided Meditation. In this 13-minute, Starry Night meditation, you will be taken on a visual journey through the stars where you will be guided to release and welcome wisdom from deep inside you. As you meditate, feel free to hold your crystal or have it resting in your lap/ on your belly.
3.) After the meditation, take your pen and paper and begin writing “I love myself through…” and then fill in the blank. Repeat this all the way down the page (front and back if you can) till you run out of space. For example:
- I love myself through this shoulder pain I am feeling.
- I love myself through this indecisiveness I am feeling in my relationship.
- I love myself through the shame I am feeling for not achieving my goals.
- I love myself through this period of uncertainty I am moving through.
- I love myself through this period of change and upheaval in my life.
4.) After you have finished, reflect on what you have written and any emotions that may have come up. Sit with whatever stirs, and see if you can love yourself through it all.
5.) Next, take your piece of paper and keep folding it into the tiniest square/rectangle you can make. Secure it with your rubber band or string.
6.) Take your crystal in both hands and whisper an intention of love into it or just say whatever you feel in the moment. Take your crystal and place it next to or on top of your little folded bundle of paper.
7.) Keep your bundle and crystal together by your bed while you sleep that night. After this, you can then move your crystal and bundle to your altar or another sacred space if you wish.
You can also choose to hold the crystal for your meditations or spiritual practice for 7 days following this ritual.
After 7 days, you can use the crystal for something else if you wish.
Follow this ritual with a large glass of water.
