It’s the first of the month and the day after the New Moon, so it’s the perfect time to start over again. Each phase of the moon brings with it a special energy for that lunar cycle. The time of the New Moon, until the Full Moon is called “waxing”. The New Moon, and first few days following it, is a time to carefully and quietly formulate plans to be actualized during the course of the opening part of the lunar cycle. In general, this is the time to perform magick associated with increase, gain, acquisition, etc.
So, during this waxing phase I will be focusing on increasing my physical activity, increasing my water intake, increasing my intake of healthy foods compared to crap foods and increasing my health and vitality in general. Weight loss should happen by default.
After 6:41pm tonight the moon will be in Virgo for the next couple of days.
Moon in Virgo
Attention towards details is on the increase, with a tendency to fault-finding, cleanliness and neatness. It is a good time to undertake routine, painstaking work, and to search for and correct errors. Your body may be more intolerant of low-grade food and harmful substances, and this is a good day to begin a diet. In the body, Virgo is associated with the bowels and abdomen in general.
