The Power of Cleansing During the New Moon

Posted By Lori Painter on Sep 10, 2018 | 0 comments


For centuries cultures have honored the lunar cycle and now science shows more findings that these cycles of the moon affect the growth of plants, animals mating, ocean tides, and even our energy, hormones, and aligns with women’s menstruation cycles.

If the new moon energy inspires mother nature to clean house, then why not take advantage of that same cleansing energy and apply it into our own lives? Especially since the momentum of the new moon energy is a very brief period of time.

Mother Nature is a powerful teacher and it’s time to pay attention to the cycles and take advantage of the energy that is occurring all around. When I align with nature’s energy, I notice that struggle diminishes and life flows. If that’s something that you want too, then read on, sync up, and join me for a 28-day challenge since September 9th is the start of the new moon.

The new moon which is the start of a new cycle. It represents the aligned timing for a total release of the old, waste, and excess in our lives. During this time, anxieties, memories, and experiences may rise up, eager to be dealt with. It’s a good time to take stock and to draw conclusions from them. Existing structures have fulfilled their purposes, and need to be destructed, or reconstructed to make room for the new. It’s a great time to look inward, honor our bodies and assess our lives. What is working and what isn’t working?

It is a time to set intentions and to cleanse the body and mind of stale energy and stagnation. It’s a strong time for healing and renewal. In doing so, it creates time, space, and energy to start living in a new and refreshed in a more precise manner. During this time, you might want to be open to important learning, to receive knowledge, to set intentions, and to make new plans.

If you don’t know where to begin cleaning up the old waste in your life, consider answering the following 3 questions.

– What is weighing me down right now?

– What aspect of my life can I clean up right now?

– What am I ready to let go of so that I may experience more bliss, connection, and fulfillment?

Once you are finished with answering those questions, act on it as soon as possible, and ideal complete the cleanup phase within the week before the cycle changes again.
