New Moons of 2023
The astrological New Year begins when the Sun moves into Aries in March each year. We call this the Spring Equinox in the Western Hemisphere.
The monthly New Moon is always a time to plant seeds for a new beginning that will later come to full bloom. Although the natural first New Moon of the year begins in April and marks the true new year, I’m keeping this in sync with the Georgian calendar for now. The world just isn’t quite there yet.
The goals and intentions we set at the New Moon will come to fruition either two weeks later at the Full Moon (a bit unrealistic for big things) or at the Full Moon of the same sign as the New Moon about six months later (more realistic for big things).
New Moon Tips and Tricks
Make sure you set goals and make wishes after the Moon and Sun have officially come together.
This is rarely the same time as when the Moon moves into the sign where the New Moon will occur.
If you set goals, make wishes, etc before the exact New Moon, you will be working with the dark Moon and this is not favorable for new beginnings.
Avoid the periods of time when the Moon is void of course, which means it's shifting from one sign to the next.
This is a little bit advanced and I recommend this planner to keep up with it, but if you aren't that invested, make your wishes over the next three days after the New Moon and you'll be safe.
Don't set more than 10 goals.
You'll be better off if you take a larger goal and break it down into smaller goals.
Keep your goals aligned with a similar theme.
How do you know what to wish for or what goals to set?
Use the themes of the sign that the New Moon is happening in- consider the element, how the sign moves through the world, and the characteristics of that sign
Use the themes of the house where the New Moon is happening. If you're a Sagittarius Rising, and the New Moon is happening in Aries, the New Moon will most likely be in your 4th or 5th house!
