What habits or beliefs no longer serve me that I can release?

What areas of my life require more attention and nurturing?

The New Moon is the perfect time to sit in stillness, reflect on your life, and gain clarity on how you would like to move forward this new cycle with manifesting your desires and accomplishing your goals.
Use the behavior patterns of the cosmos to align yourself. You can look at the sun as your thoughts, the moon as your feelings, and the earth as your actions.
