Now here’s a trip down memory lane… and since today is the new moon, I thought it was the perfect time. I wrote this back in 2007, but I still carry on this wishing tradition today…
I just got another new moon wish! Get this: I actually found myself a massage therapist for NO charge!! Exactly what I wished for!! Thank you, thank you GOD! Just to fill you in, I am big on wishes. I write 7-10 wishes down each month just before the new moon. The new moon is supposed to signify “new beginnings” and so I like to think that my wishes have the strongest chance of coming true if made on the night before the new moon. (This was another idea I received from Jan Spiller’s book, “New Moon Astrology,” – and just for the record, I have had tons of wishes come true!) – Hey, they say God encourages the use of our imagination, so I’m just following His wishes. One example is when I wished for a free massage therapist to show up in my life. (Hey, a poor just-out-of-college kid needs all the free services she can get.) And low and behold, my sister knew someone who was a massage therapist in training and she happened to be looking for people to practice on. Now come on, that just popped into my life the day after I made the wish! Is that awesome or what? I love making wishes and believing in them. Plus, it helps me to refocus my attention and critically examine what it is I really want in my life.
This is a great strategy for you: Ask yourself what you really want in life each month. (NOT JUST ON NEW YEARS)… Another wish that came true for me was having a free horse to ride whenever I wanted that was also safe, gentle, and well trained. Shortly after that wish, my friend called and insisted that I go exercise her beautiful 10 year old Trakehner! See my friends, all of your dreams can come true… but first you must pinpoint your desires (be specific!), let them go, and then believe that they will come true.
Back to present time: July 31st 2019. Since we are currently in the sign of Leo, I thought it would be prudent to suggest some sample wishes on what to wish for when the new moon is in Leo. Leo is all about love and romance, creativity and joy. So you may want to focus on wishes to improve your relationships, or bring more joy into your life. Leo loves to celebrate, have fun, and be the life of the party. So you may also want to be more social, shine your light more brightly in the world, and allow yourself some much needed play time. Think about what makes you passionate, feel alive, and self-actualized. Then simply ask the Universe to bring you opportunities to feel this way. You can gain more ideas by reading Jan Spiller’s book, “New Moon Astrology.” Happy wishing!
