New Moon! Jupiter is Closest to Earth in 70 Years!
As I have previously posted, and if you are into working with the phases of the moon and/or astrology in general, you may already know that working with the new moon is a fabulous time to set new intentions. What is it you want to manifest into existence? The upcoming new moon this coming weekend is going to be, what I'm going to say may be the most powerful in a long time due to an extra cosmic alignment happening. The planet of luck and abundance, Jupiter, is closest to the earth than it has been in 70 years! Technically, this occurrence is most prominent the day after the new moon, 9/26/22; however, like the days before and after a lunar event – the energies from the skies are similarly “strong” the hours pre-and-post the actual event.
What does this all mean when put together? Well, we have a new moon which is always powerful to help us align with goals and wishes PLUS lucky Jupiter closest to the earth than ever before (in many of our lifetimes) - are you getting the picture? THIS IS BIG!!! We are just about to approach the new moon phase, which is typically a 5-day time around the new moon – the two days prior, the day of the new moon, and the two days after have a strong energetic frequency of wish intentions and creations and planting seeds that you would like to grow into something.
That being said, the day right before the new moon is usually regarded as its own “thing” as the dark moon phase. This is the last part of the waning moon – right before the break of the new moon. This timeframe is excellent to get rid of anything that is holding you back. Think of it as one last day of the waning phase of the moon which is always a good time to reflect on things that may not be working, mental blocks, as well as more physical things to get rid of like donating things that you no longer need or want, cleaning out parts of the house that could use some tidying, etc. Don’t forget to clean a bit and take out the trash – don't drag along old garbage into the new moon cycle!
