Healing Ritual For The Scorpio New Moon

The Scorpio new moon is a potent time for transformation through healing. Scorpio energy is intense, powerful, controlling, and functions on a deep level. Deep as in connecting us with our deep-seated fears, long-term wounds, our shadow self, and on a physical level the bowels and reproductive system. The new moon in Scorpio transforms from the inside out; it operates on the spirit level. Your spirit evolves and then your life opens up. You must be willing to let the new moon energy penetrate you to the core, shed light into your inner darkness, and remove blockages and limitations. Then you will be ready for growth and expansion.

New moon represent the beginning of the moon’s monthly lunar cycle. During the new phase, we plant seeds of intention for what we want to accomplish over the following 28 days (the length of a lunar phase). When the moon moves into a Scorpio lunar cycle, transformation and growth comes after a time of healing or destruction. Be prepared to face inner demons, surrender into situations, address things you have been avoiding, and go in for a deeper understanding of your personal behaviors and how they impact your relationships.  Allow yourself to surrender into what the universe brings to you. By relinquishing control, you detach from fear and let the universe know you are ready for change and new opportunities.

Death: Letting Go

Themes of control and fear will naturally rise into your consciousness starting the week before the new moon. It could be actual events that act as triggers to pinpoint fear based actions and reactions or an overwhelming feeling of needed to jump off a hamster wheel, or pointless repeating pattern, in some area of your life.  Before you prepare to take new actions and plant seeds for new ideas, prepare yourself spiritually and energetically for change to take place.

  • Spiritual Cleanse – prepare a spiritual bath when the moon is in its dark phase (the day before, day of, and day after the new moon). Prepare and take the bath 1-3 times during this time period. This energetic cleanse clears away stagnant energy blocks and helps you let go of the past so that you can receive fresh, new insight in the weeks following the new moon.

  • Reiki Energy Healing – A spiritual cleanse will leave you feeling lighter but Reiki physically removes blockages and strengthens your energy centers. When we talk about going deep, Reiki penetrates deep into the energetic field and purges emotional blockages that are carried in the body. During or after your session the source of those blockages may move more into your consciousnesses allowing you to revisit the source of the wound and gain clarity on how it has been limiting you. A physical or emotional release may follow. Reiki both releases stagnate energetic blockages and strengthens the flow of energy into that area to promote healing and renewal on a spiritual and physical level.

Preparing for Rebirth

Empower yourself with new moon affirmations. After letting go emotionally and energetically you are ready to focus on renewal and empowering yourself as change begins to take hold of your life.  Moving from a place of what was to what is takes a time. We have to adjust to reacting and thinking differently and having new desires that are better aligned with our true desires.

Keeping your fear based actions or reactions in mind. Think about what need or goal you are trying to accomplish. For example, if you suffer from not having boundaries with people and end up being disappointing often. You are probably seeking to be accepted to create strong relationships; however, fear of rejection causes you to negate your needs and be taken advantage of by others.

Once you pinpoint what your true goal is and the limiting behaviors that are counter productive create an affirmation. Start by affirming your goal or need and then state how you will make this possible. In this case it would be something like, I affirm an abundance of supportive, reciprocal relationships. I believed a lie in thinking that I was ever rejected by anyone. I give the very best of myself and receive the very best from others. Recite your affirmation daily as often as needed starting around the new moon and continue for the 2-4 weeks after.

Candles and Crystals for the New Moon

The Scorpio new moon teaches us to surrender fully in order to reborn. To fully disconnect from one reality in order to embrace a new one. To support your Scorpio new moon goals you will most likely need to focus on healing or self-discipline, or maybe both. Decide which energy is most needed and light a candle during the new moon and recite your intentions out loud. The candle should burn for 5-7 days, spend time with your candle, reviewing your intentions each day. Burn a red candle for discipline and empowerment or a white candle for healing and renewal.

Use Amethyst to harness the energy new moon energy of Scorpio. Amethyst is known as the sober stone, it helps mellow out energy and supports spiritual connection.  Where we fear is where we seek to control, we become dominating and forceful in that area. Amethyst calms energy preventing you from going to far or over doing things. The calming and balancing energy also supports spiritual connection. Amethyst is great to use while meditating; it connects to the crown chakra and allows you to pull in spiritual wisdom.  Keep a piece of amethyst in your pocket, handbag, on your desk, or night stand. You can also wear amethyst in jewelry from, it is just as effective.
