New Moon Bath: Opening Space for a New Cycle

Every new beginning starts with a choice. The first portal of this journey is an invitation to do just that: make space.

The New Moon carries the energy of beginnings. It's when the sky grows quieter and the Moon withdraws, preparing for a new cycle.

Within the magic, this moment invites us to turn inward and ask ourselves: What do I wish to see born in my life?

But before welcoming the new, there is an even deeper question: What needs to stop taking up space within me?

Because we cannot begin a new journey while continuing to hold onto everything that has already ended.

This is the Portal of Renewal. 🌑✨

⸻

🌿 The herbs for this bath

To cross this first portal, we will work with three herbs connected to renewal, pathways, and new opportunities.

🌿 Rosemary

Rosemary is known for its energy of renewal and strengthening. It is used to bring clarity, awaken vitality, and restore energy.

🌱 Basil

Basil carries energy connected to prosperity, protection, and the opening of pathways. It reminds us that new cycles also need to be cultivated.

🍃 Bay Leaf

Bay leaf is traditionally associated with achievements, desires, and the fulfillment of goals. It represents the intention we wish to plant for the next cycle.

🛁 The Renewal Portal Bath

You will need:

🌿 A small sprig of rosemary;
🌱 A few basil leaves;
🍃 Three bay leaves;
💧 Water.

Boil the water and turn off the heat.

Add the herbs and cover the container.

Let the infusion rest for a few minutes.

While the water receives the energy of the plants, approach this moment with a clear intention.

Don't just think about what you want to achieve.

Think about who you wish to become during this new cycle.

After your usual cleansing bath, pour the infusion from the neck down.

As the water flows over your body, visualize that you are crossing through a doorway.

A doorway that separates what has been left behind from what is ready to be born.

Then say:

"I honor all the paths that have brought me here.

I release what has already fulfilled its purpose.

I make space for new beginnings.

May my paths reveal themselves before me

and may I have the courage to walk them.

Today, I choose to begin anew."

Remain in silence for a few moments.

Allow this choice to find space within you.

⸻

✨ An intention to cross this portal

After the bath, set aside a few minutes to write on a piece of paper:

"What do I wish to begin?"

Then, write a single sentence that represents your intention for this new cycle.

Keep this paper in a special place for the next seven days.

It will be the reminder that every journey begins when we take the first step.

⸻

🌑 The affirmation of the first portal

"I allow myself to begin anew.

I leave the past where it belongs and make space for a new story to be born.

I trust in the paths that open before me and move toward what I wish to build."

⸻

✦ reflection for the first day

Beginning anew doesn't mean erasing everything that happened.

Everything you've experienced has left lessons.

But there is a difference between honoring the past and continuing to live within it.

Today, before this first portal, make a choice for yourself.

Don't wait for the perfect moment.

Don't wait for everyone to understand.

Don't wait for permission.

🌙 The door stands before you.

And a new cycle begins the moment you decide to cross it.

Portal 1 of 7 — I begin anew.

✨Light on your paths ☀︎︎
