How to work with a new moon

The new moon is the start of the lunar month: the Moon is invisible, and astrologers treat it as the time to begin rather than to finish. A simple ritual is enough — write down one intention in the present tense, choose one small action for the coming week, and check in at the full moon two weeks later. The sign of the new moon suggests what kind of intention will have the most momentum.
