This morning I held a private New Moon ritual. I set some intentions for the next cycle of the moon (month). Hopefully I will be able to achieve them. Some of them are vague so as to be achievable. I also said a prayer for unconditional love. I anointed myself with lavender oil, and anointed my space with camphor. Camphor is a good oil for purification.
The New Moon is said to be the spark of creativity, at the first light. I sure hope so, my creativity has been severely lacking these days. Well, everything has been lacking, as my depression has been so severe. This morning's tea is a healthful brew of nettle leaf and milk thistle seed. Symbolically, they are curse-breakers, and I sure feel like that applies to me. This has been a terrible year. I can't wait for the new year. But at least I have a new month/moon cycle ahead of me. The next Full Moon will be in 14 days.
Today, auspiciously, is my wedding anniversary. My husband has to work today, but he took off Friday and Saturday for us to have some time together. I can't believe it has been four years of marriage. We're just going to go out for ice cream. We're on a budget. A very tight budget. In any event, it's a blessed day and I'm grateful for it.
