New Moon in Scorpio Ceremony

We will be experiencing the New Moon in Scorpio on November 7th.

SCORPIO

The most striking and easily recognized of the summer constellations, Scorpio begins to be noticed in the evening sky by mid-spring.

Scorpio is the time of year when autumn has reached its darkest, deepest dormancy. We journey to the underworld at this time. In this journey we face the demons of our dark inner world hidden within our psyches. From making the journey, staying with the quest of self-discovery and eventually, mastery, comes the transformational aspect of Scorpio. But first the depths of the murky, muddy waters must be fully explored and understood.

The issues of sex, death and rebirth are a recurring theme for the Scorpion frequency. The many mundane experiences of these three play themselves out over and over again in human experience until, ultimately, the final death is achieved ... the death of the personality, with all of its attendant selfish concerns and desires, now raised and transmuted into selfless attainment of higher consciousness.

The glyph of Scorpio has been seen by some to be representative of the kundalini force. This vital life force spirals up the spine, serpent like, to the third eye, balancing the dualities of personality with the unity of consciousness.

Scorpio is the great constellation which influences the turning point both in the life of humanity and the life of the individual human being. The tests of Scorpio are necessarily three in nature as they concern intimately the readiness of the threefold personality:

1. To reorient itself to the life of the soul, and later
2. To evidence readiness for initiation.
3. To demonstrate sensitivity to the Plan thus becoming the one-pointed disciple in Sagittarius.

New Moon in Scorpio Ceremony 

Our New Moon ceremony will also tap into the energy  fueling the seeds of change within our lives propelling us towards our becoming, allowing us to slingshot towards our desires.

Take the time to be grateful for all that has lead us to this point.

Ceremony Below

1. OPEN SACRED SPACE you can use a prayer or simply set your intentions asking for your higher self/ creator to enter your space and allow all that will be done to work towards the benefit of yourself firstly and all around you.

2.ITEMS REQUIRED Pen, cup of water and sheet of paper. 

3. MEDITATION in darkness focus on your breath, notice your inhale and exhale, really feel the oxygen as it enters your nostrils from the plant kind, notice the carbon-dioxide as it exits your nostrils to the plant kind. Reflect on the fact that you are connected with the plants and everything else around you, so too with your connection to this celestial event observe all the experiences you have had since January to this point in a DEEP INHALE filling your lungs and your stomach, then hold to the count of 7 and exhale from your being all the things that occurred which seemingly did not serve you...
the hangups,
arguments,
let downs,
disappointments,
fears.
Do this practice 3 times.

4. INTENTIONS

Create and write your intent for the next 6 months, you are encouraged to write your desires with the following headings in mind :
Power
Money
Intimacy
Sharing
Control

Reflect what these mean to you personally and write a brief definition of each before you start the energetic process of writing your future into being. 
What changes will you have in regards to your personal power , money, Intimacy, sharing and control over the next 6 months. (Be intuitive with the practice there are no set rules)

5. PRACTICE 
 Place your paper under the water bottle , hold your hand before your heart and repeat the following words in your mind or aloud "As above, so below, as within so without, as the sun so my desires, as the moon so my emotions, All full of love, all full of light". 
Spend some time in silence reflecting on these words and what the sun means to you and your desires, as well as how your emotions emulate the moon.
Following this visualise the energy from the  moon moving through the crown of your head to your heart, from your heart to your hands and into the bottle of water. 
Spend some time in silence with your hands on the water really feeling as if you have grounded this energy.

6.GRATITUDE Upon completion Thank Great spirit / grand mother moon for allowing this opportunity to channel this nights energy into the creation of your desires towards the betterment of yourself and all you meet. May what is written under the dark of the moon, come to light with the Full moon.

7. CLOSE SACRED SPACE  thanking the energy you called forward and asking that your desires are manifested for your benefit and for the benefit of all you meet.

Keep the water by your bed and before you sleep at night being conscious of the water give thanks for the day and the ability of the night to release what does not serve you, and each morning give thanks for the night that gives you rest to dream the new Day into being.
(Notice how many days pass before your water is finished)

If you receive any insights, sounds, smells, visions during this day make a note no matter how strange it may seem (you can always contact me for symbolic interpretation).

Energy is present 2 days before and 2 days after new moon so you have time to practice.
