New Moon Intention Planting Ritual

To plant intentions that are small, true and supported by action.

At the New Moon, after the awareness, gratitude, release and rest phases of the MoonMagicx Lunar Method™.

MoonMagicx Lunar Method™ phase: New Moon.

• A seed, bulb or small pot of soil

• Paper and pen

• Moonstone or Clear Quartz

• A green or white candle

Reread your Full Moon notes. Intentions written without them tend to be old wishes recycled.

Soil or seed in front of you, candle behind, crystal to the side, paper in your lap.

Light the candle. Say: 'I plant what is true, not what is impressive.'

1. Write three intentions in present tense and plain language.

2. Beneath each, write one concrete action you will take within seven days.

3. Read them aloud. If any feel performative, cross them out — three honest lines beat ten borrowed ones.

4. Fold the paper, place it under the pot or beside the seed, and place the crystal on top.

5. Water the soil once.

6. Leave the whole arrangement undisturbed until the Waxing Crescent.

'Planted in the dark, where nothing looks like it is happening.

I will tend without demanding proof.

Small and true is enough.'

Snuff the candle. Say: 'Planted.'

Do the first action within three days. Resist telling everyone — new intentions are fragile in company.

Notice whether your intentions came from your own life or from other people's timelines.

• What do I actually want underneath what I think I should want?

• What is the smallest true version?

• What will I need to do, not just believe?

Never leave candles unattended.
