    Manifest Something Magical: A New Moon Ritual + Free Worksheet

    July 17, 2025 /

    On the morning of the new moon, I lit a candle, opened my planner, and set an intention that matters deeply to me. I’m not ready to share what I’m manifesting, not yet, but I wanted to share the practice.

Sunflower and wheat watercolor illustration Today’s Magic: As August begins, the golden light of late summer spills across the fields. The first harvest festival, Lammas, marks a time of abundance, gratitude, and quiet transformation. Gardens offer their gifts, and the year subtly begins to turn. Notice what’s ripening—not just in nature, but in your life.

“August carries a quiet kind of magic. The sun is still strong, but the edges of the days begin to soften. Every ripe tomato, every golden stalk of grain, every sunset that lingers—these are the blessings of the season’s heart.”

Let today be a little ritual:
Pause and honor something you’ve brought to fruition. Step into the sun, harvest herbs or tomatoes, bake something golden, or light a candle in thanks. Write down one thing you’re proud of growing—within or around you.
