Pagan/wicca : New moon ritual?

Question

What kind of new moon ritual do you do and what would you advise me to do to enter a phase of "life renewal" in the best way possible? Whatever I do at new moon, it just doesn't seem "right"...

Answer 1

Maybe because it isn't right.

Whatever you do isn't going to give you the peace or contentment that you might and probably are seeking.

People shouldn't have to do any kind of rituals to gain anything from life.

I know it's not the answer you wanted, but for those of you that are searching for a better way to live and really get something out of life, I encourage you to drop all your rituals and rules and stop searching for "something more" or something that seems "right" and get the only thing from life that matters...

Eternal life with God. The only way to find true peace with yourself and with life. Please don't feel like I'm judging you or "hating" on anyone.  

Answer 2

Do what you want until you find something that you find fulfilling to yourself.

Lying outside at night is wonderful to just close your eyes and feel yourself drift off into the sky, or cook a special dinner for you and your family. Those make me feel fulfilled at the new moon and joy comes to my heart.

Answer 3

The new moon is a good time to start new projects or begin things, especially things that you want to grow - as the moon then goes into waxing.  It is also associated with the Maiden aspect of the goddess; maybe you could do a meditation on a maiden goddess and also work into the meditation your "life renewal".

Answer 4

I usually just meditate outside for a bit, looking up at the sky.

I just... relax. Make myself comfortable and eat a nice meal.

Answer 5

I usually just meditate, don't do much magick, and focus on myself, my spirituality, and how i can be a better person.  perhaps you could do a life renewal meditation?  ;)  Light a couple of candles, and try to get some quiet time alone.  ;)

Blessed be, and happy new moon!!
