This one was special, as it fell on my birthday.\u00a0 My intention for this new moon was simply to attract honest, like minded friends with whom to engage in fulfilling and meaningful projects. \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=26526\">It\u2019s already begun<\/a>\u00a0and more\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=26796\">appear every day<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Last night\u2019s ritual had more to do with gratitude, since I\u2019m already in the flow. \u00a0First I dug up <a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=26771\">the crystals I buried last weekend<\/a>\u00a0and rinsed them in rainwater. I laid them on a scarf to dry as I prepared the small fire for the evening puja.\u00a0 I could feel the intense fresh energy from the stones even though I was closer to the fire than to them.\u00a0 That\u2019s why you can\u2019t always trust the seen world: I was closer to the flames than to my crystals, yet I could feel their energy more intensely.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I gathered them into a basket and a short while later noticed the aura from the basket was bright and wide. After the fire ceremony, I went back into the house and began placing my crystals on the altars and in their areas.\u00a0 I showered and washed my hair.\u00a0 I applied organic virgin coconut oil mixed with myrrh and rosemary to my skin.\u00a0 I sat to meditate an hour in my new meditation space, then went to bed.\u00a0 I slept the best sleep I\u2019ve had in a year: many, many hours and no sleep aids.\u00a0 It was full of good dreams and I awoke feeling refreshed and energized.<\/p>\n<p>Walking through the house this morning, the energy felt vibrant and alive.\u00a0 I was glad for\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=22935\">the shaking up of\u00a0 2012<\/a>\u00a0as it threw me into another life, giving me a break from my own.\u00a0 That made the return to my own life that much sweeter. My renewed vibe also attracted the synchronistic return of a fave brother on the Path from a dozen years ago, someone I have history with and enjoy the company and conversation of. It\u2019s as if, although I had no real wishes of \u201cwanting\u201d something for my birthday, I just automatically got everything I could ever have wished for.<\/p>\n<p>Now to remember to pat myself on the back for having maintained,\u00a0 in the face of discord, a happy and fun enough vibrational resonance\u00a0 \u2013 via gratitude, forgiveness, creative visualization and clearing up past karmic debt \u2013 to make the evidence I see now, which includes evidence of my past momentum, be pleasant to me. \u00a0 The Universe\/God conspired with me to do it.\u00a0 And as hard as the work can be sometimes, especially when the Universe puts the lesson right in your own front yard, it\u2019s just an opportunity to do what needs to be done.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=25024\">\u00a0Only ever wish for others what you wish for yourself and forgive everyone everything<\/a>. They are doing the best they can with what they know and being surrounded by the ones they are vibing with right now. We all are.\u00a0 Always.\u00a0 Make sure it\u2019s always where you want to be.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-birthday-celebration-on-new-moon-evening\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=My Birthday celebration on New Moon evening&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-birthday-celebration-on-new-moon-evening\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-birthday-celebration-on-new-moon-evening\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-birthday-celebration-on-new-moon-evening\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=My%20Birthday%20celebration%20on%20New%20Moon%20evening&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-birthday-celebration-on-new-moon-evening\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night after dusk, I headed out to the firepit for\u00a0new moon ceremony.
