Rituals you need to practice for new moon manifestation

As the closest planet to Earth, the moon has fascinated stargazers for centuries. The curious magnetic pull the moon has on the tides is an example of the potentially powerful effect the wider cosmos has on our experience, and how we are connected to a bigger universe. When we're in a new moon phase, the lunar landscape is barely (if at all) visible from Earth. Just as we plant seeds in the darkness of the soil, providing a safe place for them to grow, so too can we help manifest our desires into existence using the supportive energy of the new moon, giving them space to expand.
