After the New Moon…

After the New Moon…

So what is exactly happening after the New Moon?

Yesterday was New Moon, today a day after the energy of the new moon is still very high, so basically if you miss out yesterday to manifest abundance or set intentions, goals, etc… There is still time today!

æ

We are moving into the next phase Waxing Crescent with Capricorn going towards Aquarius.

But for those who missed out on making the Abundance grid, here is mine.

I am using, green aventurine, for luck, clear quartz as a master stone, citrine for abundance and happiness , and pyrite, for prosperity and protection.

Comment below about your New Moon experience and what you do after!

If you are not a fan of grids, this is what you can do! Place your crystals in a crystal water bottle. These bottles are great and available here on the website in the Reiki section. The bottles are limited so make sure to pick one! They will be all reiki Infused, cleansed and charged of course.

 

You can have a note under the stones or grid with your intentions, goals, etc…. Work towards your goals till the next lunar phase.

This crystal combo can even go into my crystal water bottle!

Have a great lunar phase!

The Hunter’s Moon

The Hunter’s Moon

The Hunter’s Moon

Soon is another gorgeous full moon 🎑 are you ready for her energy? The full moon in October is also known as the Hunter’s Moon. In Eastern Europe its known as the Blood Moon.

The main reason for that is the hunting season and food storing period that need to be done before the winter arrives. The hunting season is one of the biggest events in fall after the harvest moon in September.
The main crystals to use during a full moon are selenite of course, moonstone labradorite and opal. Let’s not forget amethyst and normally for the protection on the hunt, hunter’s would carry shungite, clear quartz or black tourmaline with them on the hunt. Other crystals they carried were carnelian, bloodstone and aquamarine.


They are a great support system for endurance and bravery, courage and power.

Dont forget to book a full moon Reiki healing session click HERE.

Full moon is on 2nd October in the Southern Hemisphere and 1st October in the Northern Hemisphere.

So please get in touch book à healing session and practice gratitude, release negative thoughts and forgive. Let go of everything that does not do you good. Channel your energy, your thoughts carefully, this full moon is in Aries.the energy level is high.

Lace grids and so much more

Lace grids and so much more

Creating healing crystal grids is not only super fun but also very important to me, when working with clients. I always try to make sure that I address their needs, provide a sence of peace, security, originality and boost up the energy levels with the healing Reiki sessions.

Yesterday was an amazing evening with gorgeous energies. Thank you all for letting me tap into your energy.

With each session I align the Chakras as well and use heart shapes for it, just for the extra boost of love.

Every session starts with cleansing and a candle. It sets the mood, brings warmth and the himalayan salt holder sends out the best vibes ever.

Each clients gets a grid made that is unique and perfect for them. I am plugging cords that are not needed anymore or that stagnate energy.

The new moon energy healing sessions are fantastic for it! It’s all about a new start!

Ps :If you missed out on this reiki session, you can book a full moon Reiki healing session!

 

New Moon Ritual

New Moon Ritual

There are many rituals when it comes to the moon. She is an attraction point to us humans. The moon influences the oceans, running waters was and is guidance. I guess it will continue and carry on from our ancestors and culture to future generations. My culture was and still is in some parts fond of Bendis the Goddess of the moon. Artemis is her Greek equivalent as well as Selene, that’s where the Selenite name comes from.

So how can we get in touch and reconnect with the moon? Easy… You don’t have to have any past connections… Start simple by checking out the lunar phases… You can use apps for that depending on what hemisphere you are located. Living in Australia, I am naturally using the Southern hemisphere lunar calendar. These apps are great because they are easy to use, access and everything is visible on one screen.

Simply look up moon Phase apps, or lunar apps. I use Daily moon phases, or moon shase app on Android. The new moon in on the 17th September!

Now that this is sorted, I will share with you my New Moon ritual… Don’t think it’s complicated, once you do it I am sure you will love it!

A few days before the New Moon, you should think about some goals, set some intentions. For example, you could try to clean up, organize a room, sort out your make up, or even bigger goals like getting the dream job you always wanted, buy the car, you were thinking about… ANYTHING really!

Once you set your intentions, sage your space, your apartment, house, office…. Take a bath, listen to some meditation music. If you have crystals, cleanse them with sage or selenite. And last make Moon water! Yes, moon water. Now that’s not only easy to make but fun!

In a jar place water, set it in the window or outside, and place crystals around the jar and on top of the jar. Moon water is any water that has absorbs the energy of the moon. Please don’t use plastic, glass is best. The new moon represent always a fresh start. Fill your mind with positive vibes and kind words. You are now ready to set your intentions. So your intentions for the moon water could be love. The moon has feminine energy, that’s why all the moon divinities are goddesses, like Diana(Roman), Artemis(Greek), Bendis(Romania), Chandra (India), Mani ( Vikings), Coyolxauhqui -means golden bells (Aztec ), etc…

Back to the moon water... What can I actually do with it!!!??? Well, quite a bit! I use mine for my plants. A drop here and there makes wonders for them! I also simply drink it or add it to my tea! Since we are over 60% made out of the water and the moon influences the water, tides, it can influence us, so why not take advantage of the energy of the moon?

If you want me to write a specific post only on moon water, please let me know…There is way more to talk about…

And the last part of the New Moon ritual is to show Gratitude! Yes, simply gratitude, give back, say thank you, count your blessings, and be positive!

To enhance and take advantage of the New Moon energy I do all my Reiki session on the New Moon, you can book HERE and on the Full Moon HERE.
