New Moon Ritual: April Pink New Moon Yoga and Meditation

  • Roots & River Yoga 17 West Potomac Street Brunswick, MD, 21716 United States (map)

The Pink Moon is named for the pops of colors that come along with the first blooms of spring. This beautiful energy of renewal paints the natural world with the tulip buds, green velvety landscapes, and animals emerging from the depths of wintertime. Within our own bodies, we are beginning to experience the beautiful anticipation of manifestations that we rested upon during winter coming to life so we enjoy the blessings that come along with them.

Moon rituals are a magical way to connect with the natural cycles of life and nature. New moons remind us to check in with the parts of ourselves that are expanding and the areas of our lives that are experiencing new beginnings. In yogic philosophy, one big obstacle to letting go of suffering is what lives in our unconsciousness. As the new moon begins in darkness, we can use breath, Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra to explore the parts of us that are in the shadows to bring us into our own light.

Feel free to bring a meaningful item to place on the Moon altar for tonight’s practice. It could be a crystal, a picture, a piece of jewelry, really whatever! Maybe something that inspires aspects of the Pink Moon or something that honors the fullness and wholeness of you and this human experience.

No previous yoga experience required.
