Third Quarter Moon & Waning Crescent Moon
This week, the moon is heading back toward darkness during the third quarter moon and waning crescent moon phases.
“The waning moon, when it is shrinking back down towards the
dark moon, is the best time for cleansing, banishing and completion. If you
want to bring something into your life at this time, focus on banishing its
opposite, as that is supported by this moon phase.” –Lucy Cavendish

This phase is ideal for actually creating a letting go ritual or release ceremony. When you think about the intention you hope to bring to life, and the healing work you've done this month to empower it, is there anything you need to say a final goodbye to?
Anything that needs to be released in order to pave the way for your intention to be actualized?
Write that down, whatever it is, and put it on your windowsill tonight.
And this is the phase that completes the work of your moon month, so once you are done with letting go, you can spend the next few days celebrating the work you’ve done and anticipating all the good that will come your way as a result.
During the waning crescent moon phase, which starts this Thursday, you can begin to think about the next month's work.
And then, rest. This part of the moon cycle lasts five days and offers built-in hibernation before gearing up for the next big thing you will do. Though you can choose your next goal, it’s not time yet to do anything about it. You still have time for rest and renewal before creating the next transformation.
Have a great day!
