November's New Moon & Your Own Cacao Ceremony
New Moon in Scorpio - peaking Thursday, November 4th at 10:15 PM
When the new moon rises in the sky tonight, it leads us directly into the heart of the animal sign Scorpio's season - into the deepest part of our soul. This powerful and potent new moon brings breakthroughs and unexpected twists, but it also supports us in connecting with our deepest emotions and our innermost fears.
If we are able to let go of the need for control and embark on the journey, we have the opportunity to experience a period of great personal insights.
The New Moon brings a lesson that darkness is a natural part of being human.
The moon is currently invisible to us, and this period of dark sky is an essential part of the moon's cycle. It repeats every month, year in and year out.
The shift between darkness and light, between the new moon and the full moon, marks a necessary movement from one to another. A cyclical movement.
A movement we experience everywhere around us in the daily shift between night and day, nature's changing seasons, a woman's inner cycle, and our own life cycle.
A life lesson we can lean into when we work with the moon's cycle, and one that I have worked with in my personal spiritual practice over a long period of time.
Under a new moon, the sky above us is dark, like a blank canvas before us with the opportunity to create. In that nothingness, there is a feeling of untold possibilities.
That is the gift of the new moon – a fantastic time to set new intentions, make wishes, and take the first courageous step towards a new goal. It is a good time to pause and consider what we want to create in our lives.
This new moon invites you to explore the depths
- Here's how you can tune into the energy with your cup of cacao
When the new moon falls in the sign of Scorpio, we are invited to explore our deepest feelings and bring what is hidden into the light. It is important to prioritize alone time during this new moon and avoid being distracted and pulled away from our emotions.
Scorpio opens up a period of cleansing, deep emotions, and insight into what is normally hidden in our subconscious.
It's time to focus on what we want from our lives - and articulate it! We must remember that our thoughts become actions, which in turn shape our lives.
So, what do you want from your life?
We are invited to step into our darkness, explore what holds us captive and what holds us back from living the life we truly desire.
It is a common misconception that the shadow is home to the worst parts of our personality, but that is not entirely correct.
The shadow, on the other hand, is home to the rejected parts of ourselves and what we do not like to admit we also contain. That which all human beings contain. The shadow therefore holds a lot of unrealized potential and creativity.
How I work with the moon
- inspiration from my own experience for you <3
In my work with the moon and my personal spiritual journey, ceremonial cacao has become a regular component.
Ceremonial cacao is a gentle but powerful plant medicine that supports me in being fully present, conscious, and connecting with my inner self - my soul, so I can "hear" the messages from my subconscious within my physical being.
The spiritual essence of cacao, called Mama Cacao, guides me with love and compassion. She opens up the possibility to release suppressed emotions, let go of old patterns, and step into my highest potential.
How you can get support from your cacao - in your own cacao ceremony
In relation to this new moon in Scorpio, Mama Cacao can support you in opening your heart, so you become able to see what is holding you back and support you in the transformation of your dreams.
In relation to this new moon in Scorpio, Mama Cacao can support you in opening your heart, so you become able to see what is holding you back and support you in the transformation of your dreams.
- Where are you holding yourself back?
- What burdens are you carrying in your heart?
- What hidden treasures are buried and waiting for you to step forward and shine, as you truly are?
The new moon is a time when we feel more closely connected to our intuition and our spiritual side.
This new moon invites us to look inward and see the true state of our relationship with our shadow sides.
Instead of fighting the unknown, it is now time to embrace the more shadowy parts of our psyche and transform pain into strength. Trust what your intuition tells you.
A loving exercise for you, which you can use in your own cacao ceremony
I invite you to close your eyes, place one hand on your heart and perhaps over your lower abdomen. If you visualize your heart speaking to the underside of your hand, what do you perceive?
It could be a feeling, a word, a phrase, a mood.
See if you can formulate a short sentence from what comes to you.
Next, I invite you to say your intention out loud to yourself, write it down, light a candle and place it on your altar, if you have one, or somewhere else in your home where you feel a special energy. You might feel like creating a vision board consisting of your innermost dreams, dancing them out, or perhaps you feel called to sit in meditation.
The overarching mantra for this new moon must be; dive deep and transform your deepest shadow into your greatest light!
Happy new moon
