Today: June 3rd, is a new moon. Since my break up in January – I have been on an emotional roller coaster: one even more intense than when I was in the relationship.  Before this relationship: I had never experienced adult love.  I didn’t know what it was to feel so connected to someone and I didn’t understand the complexities of relationships and the emotions involved.  I didn’t realize that people could be so different in their approach to life and love and because of that I have been left overwrought. 

It’s said that a new moon is a chance to start fresh and to put forth needs and wants in any area of your life with the hopes that the universe will bring that good energy back to you.  

So with the new moon: it has me pondering my recent romantic relationship, my emotions attached to it and how I’d like to put forth a new type of energy toward my love life. So here are three thoughts on the new moon:

Stay True to my Emotions 

My emotions are not linear. They just aren’t.  The last 5 months I have tried to will them to be. They bring happiness as quickly as they can bring sadness. (Emotions are like that two for one package that you never meant to buy.)  I’d like to use this new moon to stay true to my emotions but not let them control me.

Regret Less

Regret is a time suck.  It can also eat you alive.  Regret has always been hard for me.  I am a person who ponders about the past and wishes I had approached something differently.  Even though, I logically know the way I did something usually was done for a reason and was even the only/best decision I could make.  I want to be able to move forward without the past hanging on to me.

Stay Open

I want to keep myself open to new opportunities for love.  I want to meet someone that will appreciate me for who I am, know exactly what I’m thinking and also prioritize the relationship.  My love language is “acts of service” and “quality time.”  I’d like to meet someone who understand those tenets of love.

As hard as the last few months have been, and surely I am in for more heartache, putting these thoughts and energy out into the universe will hopefully help me get to my next phase of my love life. Now do your job New Moon!

Tell me your thoughts on a new moon!
