The dark moon is when no sunlight is reflected on the moon towards the earth and it is not visible in the sky. This occurs two or three days before the New Moon arrives. Figuratively speaking, this is the time of death before rebirth of the moon..
This is a great time for reflection, meditation, and introspection. It is a time to review the intentions set at the beginning of the moonth and reflect on where you stand. It is a great time to let go of the old and tired things in order to make space for new and exciting beginnings.
The moon is currently back in Libra, where we started this moonth. Libra is all about beauty, equality, egalitarianism and cooperation.

Take a few long deep breaths.
On the inhale visualize your intentions manifested.
On the exhale visualize yourself releasing the things that no longer fit in the life you visualize for yourself.
Continue for a few minutes until you feel ready to answer the questions below (or just pick one question or if you know what you want to release skip the questions).
Use your Intuition or pull some Tarot/Oracle Cards
1. Is there anything holding you back from (partnerships, creating harmony, getting along with others, or any other Libra thing refer to list above)?
2. Are you holding on to co-dependency, appeasing behaviors, indecision?
3. What are you willing to let go of?
4. What is no longer working in your life?
5. What are your self-defeating thoughts/beliefs that have to go?
Now it’s time for some Burning and Banishing
Herb Craft
Things you will need:
Fireproof bowl (or pot)
Bay Leaves (or paper)
Sharpie or Pen
Matches or candle
The Ritual
Write out things you want to banish on the bay leaves or paper. Be specific, for example: “release fear about X” “banish limiting belief about X” instead of "fear" or "limiting belief". I would limit this to 10.
Take the Bay leaf (or paper) and light with the flame from the matches or candle, saying out loud (or quietly) what you have written. For example: “I hereby release all fear about X”, or “I banish limiting beliefs about X"
Drop the leaves onto the fireproof bowl or pot, and visualize the attachments being broken.
After you are done banishing these energies, invite a peaceful vibe back into your space by putting on some music you can dance to, doing a little shimmy shake, and expressing gratitude for all that is well and good in your life.
For most potent results do this BEFORE the exact time of the New Moon in Scorpio on Sunday 11/15/20 at 12:07am ET.
New Moon circle is coming up on Sunday November 15th at 7pm ET.
