Closing Ritual: (New) Moon Bath
Start your day with a peaceful Bathing session

Now that you have been reminded who is really in control of your destiny, it’s time to celebrate the new chapter you will soon be writing. And the best way to do just that is during a New Moon with a ritualistic bath! The New Moon is all about fresh starts and setting strong intentions for the next cycle, which is exactly what you need right now. If it’s not a New Moon today, don’t worry—you can still perform the ritual and enjoy its benefits, then replicate it every New Moon to establish a stronger connection to your spiritual commitment. Or advance your practice and bend time. Seize a new moon in your awareness and move yourself in spirit to that time, and do the ritual inside this space in your mind. Space and time are on the same continuum, so not only is it possible with intent, but it is also a powerful sorcery to practice. Burt Goldman, author of more than 20 books, calls it Quantum Jumping and teaches some great techniques in the practice. Either way, the point is to make yourself “New”. You can do this every single day if you wish. 39 Here’s a great way to tap into a new you: 1. Run a hot bath. If you can’t, fill a bowl with some warm water and use it to cleanse your face. The power is in the intention and way you can make yourself FEEL. 2. Grab a cup of salt, which has incredible cleansing properties. You can also add your favorite essential oils if you want. I will talk more about these later, but when you use them, add them with purpose and intent. Where your mind goes, your energy flows.10 3. Add your ingredients to your bath and focus on your spiritual commitment to reclaim control over your destiny. Say these words out loud: “I Am a Divine Action of God. I am loved. I Am Love. I clear the way now for my highest path for health, awakening, and happy abundance for myself and all others who would wish the same. I wash away all that does not serve me and fill the space with love & light. Thank you, thank you, thank you.” You don’t have to say ‘thank you’ three times, but when I get started, I often become a puddle of gratitude. Gratitude is one of the higher frequencies at 541MHz, which resides on the Consciousness Frequency Scale in the field of Oneness and 40 Self-Realization. Remember, this is in the back of the book and an incredibly helpful tool. Use it. Own it. Not only does gratitude work to manifest what you’re spelling—it bathes your body in a healing frequency and uplifts those around you. These mantras and simple meditations will help awaken the Divine part of you that can achieve all your deepest desires. You can repeat this incantation as often as you continue the ritual or anytime you wish. 4. Get in the bath or gently wash your face with the salty water. If you are bathing, be sure to gently salt cleanse all the crevices of the body. The bends in the elbows, knees, etc. Imagine yourself salting away anything dark or that no longer serves you. It absorbs and absolves. 5. Meditate for a few minutes while in the water about what your future will look like as you achieve your goal. Integrate this focused vision and activate the senses. What does it feel like? Look like? Taste like? Smell like? Sound like? Own your imaginings. Roll around and play in them. Get lost in it. Breathe it into your cells and from your cells. Be grateful for the amazingness of its manifestation as if it had already happened. If you’re using the bowl, soften your eyes, gaze at the water’s surface, and do the same. 41 6. Wash your face and your body to get rid of all the emotional or mental blockages that could keep you from achieving your spiritual pledge. Get that crud all off and out of you. If you find yourself in fear or anxiety, no biggie; take a step back and shake it off. You can’t break anything here. You are safe and protected because your intention is to do no harm to yourself or anyone else. Literally, get out and shake your body and move chaotically till you release the angst and then warm the water and go in again. 7. When you feel complete in the practice, get out of the tub and watch the water slowly go down the drain as you towel off and get comfortable. Enjoy the flow of the water out of the tub. After all, it is removing all your blockages from your body and your path. It is taking your dreams and releasing them to the world beyond to be evaporated into magic bits of manifesting glory. Imagine everything that you’re letting go of just washing right down that drain. Scatter the warm and fuzzy juju you’re feeling into every bit of your being and give yourself that 20 minutes or so to integrate the good feelings before you wander back into the world. Repeat this ritual every New Moon, or whenever you feel you need to recommit to your spiritual commitment, or when you need to wash away anything that gets built up on you.
