New Moon in Pisces

Physically the focus is on your feet during this Pisces New Moon.  Chanting the bija mantra LAM will help to root you into the earth.  You can visualize the colour as red, sending energy down to a point beneath your feet – feeling into your Earth Star chakra, the energy centre that connects you to the ground.   Inhaling, chant a deep and resonant LAM on the exhale, sending the energy downwards through the sound.  Feel yourself rooted and connected to the earth, strongly grounded and fully embodied.  

Today is also a great day to do some reflexology on your feet! Bathe them in essential oils of your choice for extra effect.

This New Moon in Pisces has a dreamlike quality to it.  Pisces, the water sign, is a dreamer, creating through imagination. As the moon passes through the Dark Moon phase into the New Moon, with just the thinnest silver sliver appearing in the sky, she’s floating in the void space.  So the Pisces New Moon can be doubly dreamy, casting your imagination out into the vast ocean of possibilities.  

What are your wildest dreams? 

Don’t hold back! Visualise your best life: what does it look and feel like?  What are your intentions and ideas?  Allow yourself to drift with curiosity – where will your visioning carry you? Get inspired and juicy as you dream big for the month ahead.  Then set clear objectives for what you intend to manifest. But with the physical focus on your feet and chanting the bija mantra LAM, it’s important to stay grounded during this time of heightened receptivity.  

So, what practical steps can you take towards your dreams as you set your New Moon intentions?  Make a list of achievable goals that will empower you to accomplish your intentions and bring the power of your imagination into manifestation.                                                 

To help you make the most of this New Moon in Pisces, stay hydrated and connect daily to the practices of breath, chanting, asana and mudra.  You will see the right steps to take at the right time.

Do not be attached to your dreams. Let them unfold mysteriously with faith that the path is set whichever way it manifests. This is usually not the way we first imagined it would be!

This Pisces New Moon, dare to dream the boldest vision for your life and know without a shadow of a doubt that you will make it happen if you take daily steps towards its manifestation.  Luna Rhythms Yoga can support you in this with practices to cultivate a prosperous mindset, unshakeable stability, and abundant faith that dreams do come true.

How Luna Rhythms Yoga can support you during this Pisces New Moon:

 Practice tadasana, mountain pose, with Pada Bandha.  Pada Bandha is the foot lock, grounding through the four corners of your feet – big toes, little toes, inner and outer edges of the heels – and lifting through the centre arch.  

Vrkasana, or tree balance, helps to cultivate unshakeable trust and patience in the manifestations of your dreams.

And finally, chanting Ganesha Mantra Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha connects you with the strength and conviction to make your dreams come true!
