The moon is something we can see but many do not realize that the moon has to do with the spiritual as well as the physical world. The moon uses gravity to change the tides and to change the way the oceans move.
The cycle of the moon from a new moon to a full moon has allowed people over the years to be able to keep up with the time and to know what day it is. The moon has held on to deep spiritual meanings for years and years and is often even considered a goddess.
Cycles of the Moon
The sun is seen as a spiritual thing as well and it is considered to have masculine energy while the moon is feminine. The moon takes over at night and has the divine spirit. It cycles for 28 days and the cycle allows the moon to gain power. When the Full moon comes and the New moon comes, these are considered an apex cycle.
When the New moon gets bigger, we can use the energy of the moon to enhance our beings and to help us to focus on life and release negative things. When the moon is growing, getting rid of bad habits and things we do not need becomes better and our life becomes pure.
New Moon
The cycle of the New moon or the apex is when you can take time to release negative energy and become one with the universe. You can focus your life on the days as the moon grows and ask yourself what you would like to do with your life.
You can learn to manifest things such as finances, strength, love, and health to you during this time.
Ritual of the New Moon
Connecting to the moon is important and if you want to do this, you can do a New moon ritual. A ritual bath is one way that you can really reach out and connect with the universe.
Things You Need
The things you need to do a ritual bath is salt. Salt is good for the body and the spirit because it can cleanse you.
You can also have these things to help you:

If you are wanting to manifest money to yourself, you can use things such as:
- Clove

These ingredients can be found in your house and you can even add petals to your bath to make it pretty.
Focusing
Before you get into your bath, take a moment to relax and deep breathe. Add the salt into the water and then add the rest of the ingredients after you step in. Pour the water over your head.
New Moon Mantra
When you are in your bath say these things, “I am giving my space my home and my heart and releasing my spirit.” Focus on saying this.
Take time to be specific to the universe with what you want. Make sure your intentions are set and that you know for sure what you want. The universe wants you to be specific.
Repeat the mantra and pour water over your head as you do and allow the water to flow from the head to the rest of your body. Repeat this a few times maybe up to seven times.
Thankfulness
Before you finish your bath, take time to connect with the moon energy and be thankful for what you have and what the universe has given you. Do not let yourself be distracted and thank the universe out loud for what you have.
Tarot Spread
One other way that you can gain power with the New moon is through a tarot spread. Put your cards out in the light of the moon and focus on what your intentions are. Release your negativity and allow the Full moon to help you find your future.
