Letting go and Waxing Moonday wisdom…

Good morning lovelies, so we are in Waxing Moon energy this week, can you feel a pull of inspiration and energy? I always feel a bit more inspired and creative this week. Here's a bit more info and inspiration for you to work with this lovely energy to maximize the time we are offered. We are also in early Autumn so we may be feeling the need to let go of stuff, emotional or physical that is feeling heavy and stagnant and the energy of this Moon gives us the confidence to know its all good to let go of the old to make way for the new to move in. Like digestion, if we were to hold all the food we ate in our body, there would be a huge shit explosion eventually! Energy is no different. Take time to journal, Rituals with Fire, write letters or scribe candles to let go and burn the attachment to old relationships or challenges and even old versions of ourselves we are identifying with, maybe even a mini detox will help adding more water and a lighter diet as we transition deeper into Autumn..

Waxing Crescent Moon.

What is it?

The Waxing Moon occurs right after the New Moon. During this phase, the moon appears as a sliver of a crescent. Waxing Crescent (Setting Intentions)

The sun starts moving closer to the new moon, starting to become illuminated again. A crescent appears, less than half illuminated, until it grows into a first quarter moon.

The waxing moon represents intention, hopes, and wishes. Now that you’ve recharged under the new moon, it’s time to set your intentions for the next moon phases.

The waxing moon is the perfect time to set intentions for your next project so that you’re building strong foundations. You’ll feel your energy levels rise and might find it easier to stay focused on a creative project or task.

3. First Quarter Moon (Taking Action)

The moon reaches the first quarter a week after the new moon and is one-quarter of the way through its monthly cycle of phases.

This is a time where you might start to feel some resistance as it’s time to act on your intentions. Moving from a rest phase to a ‘doing’ phase. If you’ve set your intentions in a new moon period, it’s now time to act on those intentions but be flexible with your steps. Keep your intentions in mind and take action to move in the direction of your intention but don’t be attached to the process too much.

The best way to start acting on your intentions is to keep a to-do list and a journal. Write yourself a daily to-do list and cross things off as you complete them.

4. Waxing Gibbous (Refining & Evaluating)

We’re now one phase away from becoming a full moon. A large portion of a waxing moon is illuminated.
As you’re moving further into the moon phases you’ll want to focus on refining and editing your intentions and the process of fulfilling them.

Things don’t always work out the way we planned them to, and this phase of the moon will help you realise what you need to re-evaluate, give up, or change direction on.

Schedule some time to re-evaluate and change direction if you need to.

This way you’re prepared for any possible changes.

How do I harness its energy? Now that we’ve decided on what we want to manifest and add to our lives under the New Moon, it’s time to work toward those intentions. The Waxing Crescent Moon offers a boost of hope and positivity as we embark on our goals for the cycle. Embrace the dreams you imagined for yourself.

During the Waxing Crescent Moon, meditate on your desires, we’re able to act in implementing our New Moon intentions.

Now’s the time to make decisions. Use the phase’s momentum to overcome any resistance we may face along the way. We can add and change things that need tweaking with our New Moon intentions.

The universe is allowing us to make edits according to our lifestyles and needs.

This phase occurs in two weeks after the New Moon. The Moon’s vibrant light is expanding and almost full. We can refine and clarify our ideas under this lunar phase.

Assessing situations and discussing our feelings is a key focus now, as we are looking inwards and figuring out what we need to change in our lives.

Positive daily affirmations and mindset work will give us the confidence to evolve and transform during the Full Moon.
