Releasing the Old as the Moon Wanes

As we move deeper into the waning moon phase, the moon’s light continues to diminish, inviting us to release, reset, and prepare for the upcoming New Moon on March 27th.

This is not the time for setting new goals or forcing action. Instead, this is a time for surrender—allowing what needs to fall away to do so naturally, creating space for fresh beginnings in the next lunar cycle.

If you’ve been feeling low energy, uncertain, or introspective lately, you’re not alone. The waning moon encourages us to slow down, reflect, and clear out any lingering thoughts, habits, or energy that no longer serve us.

Why the Waning Moon is So Important

🌙 It’s a Time for Closure – Before new beginnings can flourish, loose ends must be tied up.

🌙 It Helps You Let Go of Energy Blocks – Holding onto old emotions, beliefs, or habits will keep you stuck in the past. This phase supports releasing them.

🌙 It Prepares You for the Next Cycle – Manifestation starts with space—if you’re still full of old energy, there’s no room for something new to grow.

This is the perfect time to step back, reflect, and actively clear what’s no longer aligned with your highest self.

A Simple Waning Moon Release Ritual

If you feel emotionally or energetically cluttered, this ritual will help you reset before the New Moon:

1. Write a Release List

Take out your journal and write down:
🔸 Habits that are draining your energy.
🔸 Thoughts that keep repeating but no longer serve you.
🔸 Situations or commitments that feel out of alignment.

2. Pull a Card for Guidance

Use my Moon Manifesting Cards or Crystal Oracle Cards to gain insight into what needs to be released.

🔮 Ask: What am I still holding onto that I need to let go of before the New Moon?

If you pull a card, reflect on how its message applies to you.

3. Perform a Release Ritual

Safely burn the paper (in a fire-safe dish) or rip it into tiny pieces and bury it in the earth. As you do this, say aloud:

“I release what no longer serves me. I clear space for new beginnings.”

How to Support Your Energy During This Phase

💆‍♀️ Prioritize Rest & Reflection – Reduce distractions and allow yourself downtime.
🕯 Declutter Your Space – Clear physical space to encourage mental clarity.
🧘‍♂️ Listen to Your Body – Don’t force productivity—your energy will naturally rise again with the New Moon.
📿 Use Crystals for Support – Black Tourmaline and Obsidian are great for protection and energetic clearing.

Looking Ahead: Preparing for the New Moon

In just one week, the New Moon on March 27th will bring fresh energy and a powerful opportunity to set new intentions. The more you clear out now, the stronger your manifestations will be during the next cycle.
