New Moon Intention Setting Spell: Plant the Seeds of Your Desires

- The dark sky symbolizes a blank slate—perfect for planting new intentions without distraction.
- Lunar energy during this phase is inward and receptive, supporting deep inner work and clarity.
- Aligning your spell with the moon’s cycle amplifies your focus and connects you to ancient rhythms.

- A journal or piece of paper and a pen (preferably with black or silver ink).
- A white or silver candle (representing the moon’s pure light) and a fireproof holder.
