However, its effects vary depending on your zodiac sign. Here’s how the new moon influences each sign and how to manifest accordingly:

Manifesting on a new moon involves setting clear intentions, visualizing your wants , and taking small actionable steps toward them. There are so many ways to do this and this is just an example of what you can do to get the best out of a new moon. 1. Write Down Your Intentions – Be specific about what you want to attract. 2. Create a Ritual – Light candles, meditate, or use crystals to amplify your energy. (I recommend white or silver. Best for new beginnings and purity) 3. Visualize Your Goals – Imagine yourself already achieving what you desire. 4. Release Doubt – Trust that the universe will guide you. 5. Take Action – Small, practical steps reinforce your commitment.
