What is the best Moon phase to manifest abundance? Well, some people may disagree with me, but I think the New Moon phase is the best Moon phase to manifest abundance! By the time you get to the end of this blog post, you’ll have the five-step New Moon ritual for abundance that I use so you can manifest whatever it is that your heart truly and strongly desires.

The New Moon’s energy favors imagining and envisioning that anything is possible and setting goals and intentions related to what you desire.

The New Moon takes place when the Sun and Moon are on the same degree of the zodiac at the same time. Because of this alignment, many believe that this creates the ideal environment for wishes you make and goals and intentions you set at this time to be more quickly realized and brought into your physical reality.

The New Moon occurs once every month for approximately three days. From the time of the New Moon (which can occur at any time, day or night), there is about a 2-3 day period to work with its energy, but the first 10 hours are the most potent. (To find the exact time of the New Moon for your time zone, you can use the Moon Phase Calendar at www.astro-seek.com). You can also check out the FREE transits calendar HERE.

The New Moon’s energy fully supports you in giving yourself permission to dream an amazing life into existence. The New Moon fully supports you in thinking in terms of possibilities instead of impossibilities. The New Moon supports you in using your imagination and following through on the thought, “What if?” It is the perfect time to announce “Yes!” to things you’ve always wanted but never dared to ask for. It is time to step out of your comfort zone and create new protocols for how you live life. It presents the proper energy to propel you onward, forward, and upward.

Each month, the New Moon occurs in a different astrological sign, which gives it a different flavor or focus every month:

-The Aries New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting energy, motivation, and courage to overcome any obstacles in your way.

-The Taurus New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting money and material possessions.

-The Gemini New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting effective communication between you and others and attracting the right opportunities at the right time.

-The Cancer New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting a happy home life.

-The Leo New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting fun, creativity, and confidence.

-The Virgo New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting physical health and positive daily habits.

-The Libra New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting the love and relationships that you want.

-The Scorpio New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting more money at the asset level (i.e., savings, real estate, stocks) and a more satisfying sex life.

-The Sagittarius New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting travel opportunities (especially international travel opportunities) and good luck.

-The Capricorn New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting your ideal job or career.

-The Aquarius New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting better friendships and claiming your freedom in any area.

-The Pisces New Moon’s energy supports you in manifesting greater spiritual fulfillment and better mental/emotional health.

When the New Moon occurs, follow these five steps to manifest more abundance in any area of your life:

Decide that you’re going to have what you desire and then make this decision energetically visible and known to the Universe. You can do this by simply declaring out loud or putting in writing: “On this day _____, I have decided that I am going to have _______ .”

The New Moon’s energy favors making wishes and setting intentions for what you want to manifest in your life in the next month, near future, distant future, and really, any possible future.

Many people lump making wishes and setting intentions together, as if they are the same thing. They are not the same thing.

Wishes run off of creative energy, which is important to help you tap into the unlimited energy of abundance that exists all around us.

Intentions, on the other hand, live in the energy of being something that you embody completely or do.

Both making wishes and setting intentions can be used successfully with the New Moon’s energy to manifest that which you desire into your physical reality; however, the quickest way to manifest something you desire is by setting intentions.

During the New Moon phase, the most effective way to set intentions is to write them down with a pen/pencil and paper. Writing them (instead of typing them) helps to unite both your conscious and subconscious minds in a unified undertaking. When you set intentions for what you want to manifest by writing down your intentions, it’s best to begin with the following statements: “I am”; “I have”; “I know”; “I can”; “I choose”; “I claim”; or “I intend”.

When you’re writing intentions for what you want to manifest when the New Moon occurs, it is also important to make your intentions as specific as possible (i.e., instead of writing “I am rich” you could write something more specific, such as “I am easily able to financially cover everything that I want and need”). It is also beneficial to write your intentions in positive language (i.e., use do instead of don’t, can instead of can’t, etc.) and in the present tense.

After you write your intention statements, re-read them as often as you can over the course of the next month (until the next New Moon). When you read them, visualize having them and feel the associated good feelings that come with having that which you desire.

As you write your intention statements, you may find that negative thoughts and limiting beliefs pop up.

Your mind might tell you that you can’t do or can’t achieve something that you’ve written down as an intention, that you don’t deserve something, or you might feel fear when thinking about not being able to get what you want.

This is all good information as well, so the best thing to do is to jot down any negative thoughts or limiting beliefs that pop up, look at them with curiosity, feel into them if you can, send your thoughts some love, decide that they may or may not be true, and then consider being open to seeing things in a different way.

You can also choose to tackle those limiting beliefs head on and more in depth at the next Dark Moon phase of the Moon’s monthly cycle.

As you write your intentions to manifest the abundance that you what you want during the New Moon, it is also extremely helpful to write your intentions from a firm place of knowing that any desire you have is in alignment with the Universe and thus, it is already fulfilled. If you are writing your intentions from a place of fear at not getting what you want, or confusion about how you will get what you want, it is very easy to manifest more experiences that will make you feel fear and confusion.

Knowing that you already have it can be tough to do when you look around your existing reality and don’t see any evidence of that which you’re trying to manifest. This type of knowing takes practice but can be mastered.

To manifest more abundance, follow the step-by-step New Moon ritual for abundance:

1. Tap into feelings of gratitude for the past and present times when you’ve experienced abundance

2. Get clear what you’d like to manifest and what that would look like and feel like

3. Decide and declare that you’re going to have what you desire

4. Create written intentions for what you want to manifest

5. Know that you already have it
