A candle practice for the new moon in Sagittarius.

Welcome dear friends this is Sarah and I'm so happy to have you with me again.

This practice is designed to be used for the new moon in Sagittarius or any time in your life where you feel like you want to set some goals and really think big with your vision.

If you'd like to join in with a ritual it would be wonderful if you had a candle with you for this practice and something to write with.

Your candle can be any size,

Shape or color that you choose.

Good colors for Sagittarius would be blues,

Purples,

Turquoises and the color for the element of fire is red.

You can always use a white candle in place of any of these and you can use just any candle that you have to have.

We'll light the candle together during the practice and leave it to burn down at the end with the intention that we will send our wonderful vision out into the universe with the flame.

So if you need to the time to pause is now to go grab a candle,

Something to light it with and to make your space warm,

Comfortable and make sure you won't be disturbed.

I'll wait for you and we'll begin together.

Come into a comfortable position now and have your candle next to you.

I'm going to light the candle together and in lighting the candle we are collectively beginning our ritual.

So light the candle with the intention that we will use the shared energy of this practice to manifest our highest intention for Sagittarius.

Take a deep breath,

Light your candle and we'll begin.

It can be really helpful when trying to meditate to focus our attention on one single point.

If you're like me and you find it quite difficult to quiet your mind it can be much easier to focus if our eyes have something to focus on.

So for this practice I'd like us to focus on the base of the flame.

Doesn't matter if your eyes relax and the vision becomes a little bit blurred as long as you can see the movement.

Sagittarius is mutable fire energy.

Mutable means that it's flexible and adaptable.

The mutable signs always come with the start of a new season and with Sagittarius we are entering into the darkest time of the year.

We've just finished Scorpio season which is the season of metaphorical death,

Rebirth and transformation and as we move into Sagittarius it is the opportunity for whatever part of ourselves that has metaphorically died and been reborn to begin to emerge again.

In these dark months of the year it's very easy for us to feel quite low,

To not have much energy and just don't want to hibernate in the darkness and it's perfectly natural for us to want to do that.

The earth does that at this time of year so it's natural that we would too.

But when we move into Sagittarius that little spark begins to be relit.

Sagittarius is the optimistic,

Enthusiastic,

Joyful,

Spontaneous archer and although it's dark Sagittarius knows and trusts that the light is going to return at yule and as we move towards the winter solstice and that beautiful celebration of the return of the light Sagittarius season keeps a fire underneath our highest goals and dreams.

This is a season to just comfortably sit with our goals to keep them warm and to see how they expand so that when the light starts to begin we can start to bring them forth.

We're going to take some time to relate the astrology of Sagittarius and the new moon to our own lives.

A new moon is always a powerful new beginning.

We have these cycles for manifestation naturally built in.

Our bodies take powerful cues from nature.

We understand when to sleep,

When to wake up,

We understand the cycles of seasons,

We understand the cycles of breath and we are naturally able to tap in to the waxing and waning energy of the moon in order to create what we want to show up in our lives.

If you're doing this in the days leading up to the Sagittarius new moon you might feel quite introspective.

You might be reflecting a lot on Scorpio season,

Everything that you've learned and you might feel inclined to rest more and to sleep more and that's perfectly natural and the idea for these times is to really listen and to turn inward because that is when we will hear what our hearts deepest desire is.

Sagittarius is going to help us to fan a flame underneath it.

Sagittarius is helpful in exploring what we are passionate about,

What brings us joy but also because it's ruled by Jupiter,

Planet of good luck and expansion.

It's really helpful for us to think on a large scale and if you're doing this in 2019 we are coming to the beginning of a new decade.

So this is a wonderful time to really think about long-term vision.

So as you sit with your Sagittarius candle I'd like to take some time now to build a vision in your mind from the flame.

I'm gonna keep an eye on the time and I'd like us to spend two minutes and begin at the bottom of the flame and see what the grandest,

Biggest,

Highest,

Best picture of you and your life might look like.

I'll come back to you in two minutes.

Dream big.

You have one minute left.

Now that you've seen that beautiful expanded vision and version of you,

It's time to think about what we will create over the dark winter months that we're going to bring to light in spring.

As the energy of the moon waxes towards full,

What will we create in our lives?

Sagittarius wants to know what you would do if you knew that you would succeed.

Sagittarius wants to know what you're passionate about.

What brings you joy?

What things do you want to share that will be of benefit to other people?

Consider all of these questions as you gaze into your candle.

Watch as the immutable fire energy changes and moves but remains steady.

I'll come back to you in two minutes.

You have a minute left.

You have a minute left.

Now that we've seen in the flame that beautiful highest vision and we've considered what brings us joy,

What our passions are and how we can share those and be of service to others,

We can tap into the energy of the new moon by setting intentions.

Intentions are always action steps that we take in order to move towards our highest goals and one of the most powerful ways that we can become that best version of ourselves and feel the way we want to feel is to speak our wishes out loud.

Intentions are always positive statements and the most powerful statement that we can make is I am.

So take your highest goal,

Your biggest joy,

Whatever you're most passionate about,

The best way you can give back to others,

What you would do if you knew you wouldn't fail and turn them into I am statements.

We will speak these aloud together over our flame and we offer them up to the universe to manifest for our highest good.

Take a deep breath and as you exhale begin with your first statement and speak aloud I am.

Continue with each of your statements.

Continue with each of your statements with the intention that they will be released with the flame.

Know that you have the energy of everyone taking part in this practice to support you and speak loudly and confidently.

Continue with each of your statements with a thank you and with an affirmation speaking out loud it is done.

Leave your candle to burn down for as long as you can.

If you can't let it burn all the way then extinguish it rather than blow it out.

Let your intentions and your wishes be taken on the flames of Sagittarius out into the universe to be manifested with the return of the light.

Thank you so much for joining me in this practice.

I would love to hear from you about your Sagittarius goals.

With much love I speak to you very soon.

Heard some beautiful wisdom. Thank you.

This was fabulous! Thank you !

Awesome in 2021 as well!

Couldn’t find my lighter for a candle, but I released through water instead and put different crystals on my self while doing the practice. Loved the affirmations for my throat chakra. Namaste 🙏

Wow. That was amazing! Thank you so much! Namaste!💛

I loved it, thank you so much , really helped me hone in on the intentions I would like to set for this moon cycle

Perfect. Exactly what I need right now. Thank you.

Thank you so much 🙏. This new moon coincides with my Jupiter return so the timing is simply divine ✨

A powerful candle-gazing practice for creating. Listening in Australia some of the imagery and discussion wasn't applicable. Some background noise at the beginning. A good balance between spoken guidance and silence. Thank you for sharing this with the Insight community.

Wonderful!!! Thank-you!!!

Love this meditation! Thank you 🙏 🙏

Love it :) I’ll listen again on new moon day ! ♥️
