The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a New Moon phase accompanied by a Solar Eclipse. During this phase, the Moon is too close to the sun in the sky to be visible, exposing the night darkness and making it a perfect time to view other celestial objects around you and within you. Adding an eclipse makes it a far more mysterious and mesmerizing phenomenon; these interruptions signal change is about to occur.
Scorpio is the sign of mystery, secrets, power, money, sex, everything taboo, death, and rebirth. The darkness of this powerful celestial combination in the sky encourages you to embrace change. Buried secrets, known and unknown now exposed, initially can be painful but will be the openers for creating space for growth.
An eclipse can last up to 6 months. So whether you’re letting go of a habit, a person, a job, or things related to scarcity, it is time to recognize what you’ve always known. This eclipse/new moon combo can help you see the truth.
Here is a ritual to help get you there.
- Use your cleansing tool of choice—for example, palo santo or sage.
- Create a prayer or use the following below.
- Lastly, journal any thoughts that are emerging.
“I am purging my past to be my highest self. I am cleansing and opening my heart to be open and aligned. I cleanse the space around me so that light and love fill my home and be renewed. I free myself of any burden, blocks, or wounds holding me back, preventing me from moving forward and accessing self-love. I open my heart to the universe and receive all that is already mine.”
Namaste. Teresa
