New Moon Ritual: Quiet Intentions After Halloween

The November New Moon arrives November 9, 2026 — the first dark moon after Halloween, when the loud energy of the season settles into something quieter and more inward. This is a good moon for rest disguised as intention-setting.

The Ritual

Light a single candle in a dim room. Instead of writing a long list, choose one word for the weeks ahead — stillness, warmth, focus, whatever fits. Speak it once, aloud, and let the candle burn down naturally while you sit with it.
