A Guided New Moon Ritual for Intention Setting and Fresh Beginnings
The New Moon is a powerful time to set intentions, plant seeds for the future, and embrace the energy of new beginnings. This phase of the lunar cycle symbolizes a blank slate, making it the perfect opportunity to align your thoughts, desires, and actions with the goals you wish to manifest. This guided New Moon ritual will help you connect with this energy and create a meaningful practice for renewal and growth.
Prepare Your Sacred Space

Before beginning your ritual, create a peaceful environment where you can focus without distractions.
- Cleanse your space using sage, palo santo, or incense to clear any stagnant energy.
- Set up your tools: a candle, journal, pen, crystals (such as clear quartz, moonstone, or black tourmaline), and any other meaningful objects.
- Play inspiring music or meditate in silence to center yourself.
Ground Yourself
Grounding helps you become present and connect with the Earth’s energy.
- Sit comfortably with your feet flat on the floor or cross-legged on the ground.
- Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths, inhaling for four counts and exhaling for six.
- Visualize roots extending from your body into the Earth, anchoring you to its supportive energy.
Set Your Intentions
The New Moon is a time to focus on what you want to invite into your life.
- Light your candle as a symbol of illumination for your intentions.
- Hold your journal and pen, and reflect on what you want to manifest.
-
Write down your intentions clearly and confidently, starting with "I am" or "I will." For example:
"I am attracting abundance and opportunities in my career."
"I will nurture my relationships with love and patience." - Speak your intentions aloud, infusing them with emotion and belief.
Meditate with the Moon

Meditation allows you to connect with the energy of the New Moon and deepen your intentions.
- Hold a crystal in your hand or place it near you.
- Close your eyes and visualize the darkness of the New Moon as a nurturing space, full of potential and possibility.
- Imagine your intentions as seeds being planted in fertile soil, ready to grow. Feel the energy of the New Moon supporting your dreams.
Release and Trust
Once you’ve set your intentions, it’s important to let go and trust the process.
- Express gratitude to the universe for supporting your journey.
- Allow your candle to burn all the way down as a sign of releasing your desires into the cosmos.
- Place your journal and crystals somewhere special to hold the energy of your intentions.
Take Action
While the New Moon amplifies your intentions, action is key to bringing them to fruition.
- Create a plan to move toward your goals, breaking them into small, actionable steps.
- Check in with your intentions regularly to track your progress and make adjustments as needed.
Close Your Ritual
End your ritual by grounding yourself again. Take a few deep breaths, thanking yourself for the time and energy you’ve dedicated to your growth.
By incorporating this New Moon ritual into your practice, you align with the energy of new beginnings and create a powerful foundation for manifesting your dreams. Embrace this time of renewal and trust in your ability to bring your intentions to life.
