I’m going to be doing 31 days of videos to make sure you subscribe here on the website and on youtube so you don’t miss anything. I’m not taking the weekends off either. I’ll be sharing:moon journaling prompts, Spooky DIYs, Autumn & Fall Decor, Farm House inspired Halloween Decor.
Today, I wanted to share with you some of my little journaling Doodles that I do. First it started out as just a daily drawing or daily doodle. This helps me to fulfill my creative side and it also gives me a chance to just tap into that creative spirit and to that artist within me. I get a chance to do this every single day by making this a daily draw or daily doodle.
I’ve done two months of drawing every day for an entire month and I am now on my third month with October. So what I wanted to do today is show you my first daily draw, which was August and then show you September, and what I have started for October.
This was the inspiration, August. As you can see I drew a tarot card for every single day and what I did was I just drew the card from the deck and then I recreated it as a miniature in my journal. I really enjoy doing this because it gives me a chance to look at the beautiful artwork on my tarot cards. It also gives me a chance to learn a little bit more about the tarot cards because I don’t know if that much. I’m more of an intuitive person when it comes to tarot cards. I’m also one of those people who just loves to look at tarot cards because they’re just completely beautiful. I love looking at them and just seeing them as little pieces of art.
For September I took a break from the tarot daily draws and I did a daily doodle instead. Towards the end of September it was a little rough to get time in for my creative side. I just didn’t have time to draw because the month was winding down and then a lot of things just popped up in my life that were stressful. Some days just didn’t want to make the time to draw because I felt like I couldn’t draw allow myself to. But I really enjoyed the process of actually sitting down and drawing when I could.
Now I’m into a new journal for October and I’ve already started my daily draws. I’m doing both daily Doodles and daily tarot draws this month. For my daily doodles of October I already have three done. I’ve got a little leaf, a fox, and today I drew a little coffee cup. I like to share these with you all over on Instagram so go follow me there @owlsandindigo !!!
This is my October daily tarot draw spread, which is going to be the exact same thing as August. I’m going to draw a tarot card and then recreated as a miniature here in my journal. I like to use watercolors and pens for this. I use ink pens like Prisma pens or any other type of art pens. I’ve also seen some really pretty recreations of tarot cards with ballpoint pens on Instagram. So don’t feel like you can’t do this if you don’t have the “right” tools. You can even do this with markers and colored pencils. I’ve definitely done that before in the past and they turn out gorgeous.
SO! That is what I have for you today for day number two of You-Tober. If you want to see more of my art miniatures and maybe a draw with me let me know for sure over on instagram or youtube. I like to share these Miniatures over on Instagram that’s actually where I am most so if you want to talk with me and see doing what I’m up to make sure you follow me over on Instagram @owlsandindigo I’m really excited to share more with you this month, there are going to be a lot of posts to make you a happy and healthier human. I’m really excited to share these with you and I’m excited to open up more this month and to let you see into my world a little bit more and to get to know you better. I’m so grateful that you chose to spend your time here with me today I’ll see you tomorrow for Day 3 of You-Tober.
I’m going to be doing 31 days of videos to make sure you subscribe here on the website and on youtube so you don’t miss anything. I’m not taking the weekends off either. I’ll be sharing:moon journaling prompts, Spooky DIYs, Autumn & Fall Decor, Farm House inspired Halloween Decor.
So lets dive in and check in for my goals this month. I’ve been doing pretty good on my intentions. I while we were away this weekend I actually decided to go for a salad automatically in a restaurant, which is something that I never do. It’s one of my goals this month, and it just clicked. Actually it didn’t even click. I didn’t have to think about it! I just went straight to the salads! This intention corresponds with my overarching goal for weight liberation this year. I also explored a new place this weekend, it was the same restaurant.
I also wanted to have shark like honesty this month, which was me saying no to things instead of being like oh okay I guess I’ll do it, and just capitulating. I was able to say nope! This nope was in relation to, “No I can’t stay up. I need to go to sleep.” For my feeling based intention this lunar phase I wrote,
“I relax into my intention. I pause. I take this time to breathe.”
My mantra for this cycle is:
“I’ve set these goals to awaken my growing potential & be balanced like the bee honest as a shark, and awaken the snake shakti within myself.”
JENNY PROCZKO, from OWLSANDINDIGO 10TH MOON mantra 2019
Then I go over my Mantra that I’ve set for myself this month. I say this mantra to myself everyday when I check in with this spread. My mantra is, “I set these goals to awaken my growing potential and be balanced like the bee, honest as a shark, and a wake in the snake shakti within myself.” Then I close out my little goal-setting practice for the day by filling in my tracker at the bottom with a little leaf.
See how I actually filled out this spread in my 10th New Moon Monthly Goals Plan With Me | Lunar Goal Setting Journal With Me. This is something that I do monthly on a lunar calendar because it gives me more chances to check in with my goals for the month. This gives me more of a chance to make sure that I accomplish my goals and they don’t just fall by the wayside.
So this is what I normally only share on Instagram if you really like these videos make sure you leave me a comment down below and maybe in future months I’ll go ahead and share these little mini Moon check-ins with you on YouTube as well. Make sure you follow me over on Instagram @owlsandindigo it’s where I am most!
Today it’s time for my 10th New Moon Lunar Goal Setting Session. This is how I set goals for the month. I actually use the moon to keep myself on track. I use the eight lunar phases as check-in points to make sure that I’m on top of my goals for the year, and also for this month.
So lets go ahead and start with our new moon beginnings. I really enjoyed creating the my October Plan With Me which is coming out October 1st as a kick off to my vlogtober! So grab a cup of tea and your favorite pen, and set your monthly goals with me!
This month I’m using Wild Unknown Spirit Animal deck from Kim Krans. This layout is from my October Monthly Plan With Me. I like to start by shuffling the deck 3 times, or whatever feels good, and then I cut the deck. This month for my journaling prompts I’ll be focusing on:
to have to do to be
I like to write down any notes that jump out at me from the guidebooks as I journal.
For the shark, I wrote: direct exposure, revealing true nature, desire, and then finally, honesty.
For the bee, I wrote: earnest, hard-working, and democratic. When in balance, content, active and vibrant. When unbalanced, overworked and annoyed. This is totally me right now! I was really surprised when I read the description of this card because it definitely resonated with me for what I’ve been going through lately.
For the snake, I wrote: guardian of un-awakened magic and potential. The activities that you can do to help unlock these characteristics are Kundalini Yoga and meditation.
Out of these themes, I create my mantras for this month with my Mantra Maker on the opposite side of this spread. My mantras for this 10th New Moon are:
“I am an honest shark when it comes to my life.”
“I will be honest with myself.”
“I will be balanced while working hard.”
“I will awaken my coiled snake.”
This month’s lunar theme is:
“from darkness you are re-born”
My mantra for this cycle is:
“I’ve set these goals to awaken my growing potential & be balanced like the bee honest as a shark, and awaken the snake shakti within myself.”
JENNY PROCZKO, from OWLSANDINDIGO 10TH MOON mantra 2019
Then I write the eight steps that I’m going to be taking this month to help me achieve these goals for this lunar month. I always make sure that these steps actually relate back to my yearly spiritual goals. Sometimes these line up with the lunar phases and sometimes they don’t.
eat salads at restaurants
record two more meditations
explore three new places
have four Fridays out of my home & studio
write five garden journal entries
read six more chapters of my books
have seven moments of shark like honesty
have eight “ideal” yoga sessions
Last month I really enjoyed having a little tracker on a sticky note. This enables me to move It from week to week, that way I don’t forget about the habits that I was working on and all of the things that I wanted to accomplish.
I drew a little snake at the bottom. I think the snake is going to be my animal for the month. I found myself changing my phone wallpaper to a snake. I was actually really surprised because the snake has actually come up a lot in conversation and has popped up a lot in various other areas of my life lately.
You might recognize this bullet journal spread, it’s from my October Plan With Me. Make sure you check it out to see the rest of my journal for this month and my weekly spreads! I use this journal as my daily planner now and as my lunar goal setting journal.
Either by the moon or in the morning of each new lunar phase, I set a positive feeling based intention for each of the eight lunar phases. For this new moon I wrote:
“I set my intention. I feel my intention in my body.”
JENNY PROCZKO, from OWLSANDINDIGO 10TH MOON 2019, NEW MOON INTENTION
Then at the beginning of each moon phase for this cycle I will come back to this spread and write a new positive feeling based intention. I’ll be posting these little mini moon updates over on Instagram, so be sure to follow me there so you don’t miss them! The only place you can find them is on instagram.
This journaling and goal setting practice is something that I do the night before every new moon or the morning of every new moon. This practice of short term, achievable goal setting via the lunar cycle, has grown really dear to my heart. It’s something that I can’t imagine not doing.
So what goals have you set for this month? Are they similar to mine or are they totally different? I’m really excited to see if I can actually develop yoga as a spiritual practice. So far for me it’s only been a physical practice, and after I took a couple of classes at one of my local yoga studios, I just really started to fall in love with yoga. The class that I took a sort of delved a little bit deeper into the spiritual side of yoga. I’m really excited to explore that more, so that is going to be one of my main goals for this month. I can’t wait to see your goals are, make sure you leave me a comment down below.
https://youtu.be/gaegvF1pVkU
Using tarot cards in this way gives me a new lens in which to look at my life. It’s also given me a lot of inspiration and closure by looking at my life through a different perspective. This practice has also helped me hone my focusing skills and has enabled me to quit second guessing myself. With this practical tarot new moon journaling prompt, I look forward to each lunar cycle and the start of a new chance to achieve my goals.
Now that we have completed this Monthly Lunar Goal Setting session, we can go ahead and bring our 8th Moon Practice to a close. Subscribe so you don’t miss anything. To see how I make sure I’m on track with my goals for each Lunar Month check out the my Full Moon Check In.
So my life got a little bit busy… I completely missed the last quarter moon check in, and I am just writing out what my feeling based intention would have been. “Now that I am receiving, I give back from a place of abundance.”
Today’s feeling based intention for the Balsamic Crescent Moon is, “I reflect with thanks. I rest. I restore.”
Next, I go back to my sticky notes and check off what I did and didn’t accomplish. I use a little squiggly line for the things that are in progress or are sort of done. Then I just X out the rest and then color in the boxes for the things that I’ve finished.
Then I check the rest of the things on my Spiritual Goals section and 8 Intentions section. I also draw a little arrow for the things that I want to continue or that I’m going to be a transferring over to the next month.
During my Balsamic Crescent Moon Review, I ask myself three questions: what worked? what didn’t? and what to improve?
So what worked for me this month was having my daily goals on a mini sticky note for my habit tracker and then also letting go of guilt.
what worked?
what didn’t?
what can I improve?
What didn’t work was “Fit Fridays” and Techless Sundays. I usually do really good on Techless Sundays, but I was just super busy on Fridays and Sundays this month. I was working and I needed to actually be on the internet to G.S.D.
And there are two things that I’m going to be improving for next month.1. I want to reinstate my mindful morning journaling routine. 2. I want to schedule an alarm in my phone for zen time and goals time.
My little tracker was supposed to be third eyes and I really like how it turned out. Afterwards I take the sticky notes from this Lunar Goals Review and move them forward into the next new moon phase.
Were you able to finish your goals for this lunar month? Did you do a little better than me? I can’t wait to see your answers in the comments down below.
I’m Jenny Proczko from Owls&Indigo. I make videos about journaling, spirituality, mental health, and goal setting.
Today it’s time for my 9th Full Moon Lunar Goal-Setting Check-In. I really enjoyed creating the my September Plan With Me featured in my spreads. If you want to see how I set these goals click here. So grab a cup of tea and your favorite pen, and lets check in on our monthly goals together!
The theme this month is gather gratitude & give thanks and that is because we are in the second harvest. On every full moon check in, I always ask myself two things: what have I succeeded in this lunar month? And what can I improve?
“gather gratitude & give thanks“
There’s always things that we can improve on whether we’re actually on top of our goals and have gotten everything done. There’s definitely little things along the way that we could have done better.
what have I succeeded in this lunar month?
what can I improve?
I succeeded in doing a lot while we were camping. I think it just means, that I need to have more Tech free time during the week to accomplish my goals. Because it was super easy you say on top of them while I was camping, when I didn’t have other distractions.
I’ll improve by doing two things:
schedule goals time in my calendar and my planner.
make trackers here in my lunar bullet journal and on my daily planner.
Next I get out my sticky notes, so I can flush out some goals. I write out which goals I’m going to be tracking for the rest of this month, that way they are just in one place. This way I can see them. I also writing down what actions are left to accomplish these goals. There are also four habits that I wanted to do daily:
daily habits
read 15 min.
no dairy.
unplug at 8pm.
yoga.
Next I create the trackers for the rest of the month and put the sticky note in my daily planner section. Now I write out the rest of the things that I want to accomplish in the next 15 days before the end of the moon on a separate sticky note.
by the end of the moon
update garden journal.
plan one day trip.
record two meditations.
have 3 more Fit Fridays.
My feeling bass intention for this full moon is: “I clarify my purpose, illuminate & fulfill my potential. I shift and TACKLE my goals for this moon.” Then I finish off my full moon goal setting check in by drawing in a leaf on my little tracker.
“I clarify my purpose, illuminate & fulfill my potential. I shift and TACKLE my goals for this moon.”
jenny Proczko, 9th Full Moon CHeck In Mantra & intention
How about you? Were you able to accomplish your goals so far this month, or did you fall short like I did? I am just so behind in my goals practice right now. But I know I can’t be alone in that. Let me know in the comments down below if you are having a hard time accomplishing your goals right now too.
ALSO!!!! What progress have you made on your goals this month? Are you on track for the Balsamic moon or did you have to retool your goals and intentions for the month?
Today it’s time for my 9th New Moon Lunar Goal Setting Session. This is how I set goals for the month. I actually use the moon to keep myself on track. I use the eight lunar phases as check-in points to make sure that I’m on top of my goals for the year, and also for this month.
So lets go ahead and start with our new moon beginnings. I really enjoyed creating the my September Plan With Me. So grab a cup of tea and your favorite pen, and set your monthly goals with me!
Today I’m using the Illuminated Tarot deck. I really like this deck because it can double as playing cards and its just stunning to look at. I’m actually going to be pulling out one of the cards as inspiration for this Fall. I’m going to tuck it into the frame of my mirror so I can be inspired by it every morning.
This month I’m using Illuminated Tarot Guidebook and Deck, you can actually use this deck as playing cards as well. This layout is from my September Monthly Plan With Me. I like to start by shuffling the deck 3 times, or whatever feels good, and then I cut the deck. This month for my journaling prompts I’ll be focusing on:
to have to do to be
I like to write down any notes that jump out at me from the guidebooks as I journal. This month AND last month, I pulled all Spades from the Illuminated Tarot Deck. I swear I’m shuffling this deck! I drew the Queen of Spades, 10 of Spades, and 3 of Spades.
For the 3 of Spades, under “to be,” I wrote, moving beyond sorrow understanding one’s own feelings.
For “to do,” I drew the Ten of Spades, which is judgement, waking up, and an announcement. It also has a really beautiful folk style rooster illustration.
Out of these themes, I create my mantras for this month with my Mantra Maker on the opposite side of this spread. My mantras for this 9th New Moon are:
I am intelligent & ambitious.
I can show up to be present and do.
I will move beyond my sorrow and work to understand my feelings.
I set these goals to further my progress and focus on the strategy I designed to crush each of these goals.
This month’s lunar theme is:
“gather gratitude & give thanks“
My mantra for this cycle is:
“I descend into myself, to move beyond my frustrations, and to work to better understand my feelings, and my motivations.”
JENNY PROCZKO, from OWLSANDINDIGO 9TH MOON mantra 2019
Then I write the eight steps that I’m going to be taking this month to help me achieve these goals for this lunar month. I always make sure that these steps actually relate back to my yearly spiritual goals. Sometimes these line up with the lunar phases and sometimes they don’t.
Read 4-8 chapters this moon. I’ll be reading one chapter per lunar phase or one chapter every two lunar phases.
Update my garden journal.
Record 2 meditations. I’ve got two little bubbles that I’m going to fill in once I record those meditations.
Cut all dairy this moon.
Fit Fridays. My trigger is not being able to have coffee at home. This will get me outside of the home to go get coffee via bike or walk to cafe. This way I can get coffee and get a little bit of movement in.
Solo Day Trip! Plan. Do. Take Photos!
Techless Sundays. The Habit Stack for this will be coffee & hike with the hubby, groceries and meal prep, podcasts while meal prepping and reading or audio books the rest of the day and evening. This is going to help me stay off the phone and tv.
8 p.m. Unplug. My trigger is actually going to be a phone alarm. The Habit Stack is writing in my 5-year Journal as soon as my phone alarm goes off. Read my bedtime meditation early that way I can reflect on it while I’m doing yoga in the twinkle lights. Then I’m going to continue winding down with 15 minutes of reading in bed.
You might recognize this bullet journal spread, it’s from my September Plan With Me. Make sure you check it out to see the rest of my journal for this month and my weekly spreads! I use this journal as my daily planner now and as my lunar goal setting journal.
Either by the moon or in the morning of each new lunar phase, I set a positive feeling based intention for each of the eight lunar phases. For this new moon I wrote:
“First, I am grateful for the slow build of my goals. I let go of what isn’t serving me and move forward, while paying attention to what is.”
JENNY PROCZKO, from OWLSANDINDIGO 9TH MOON 2019, NEW MOON INTENTION
Then at the beginning of each moon phase for this cycle I will come back to this spread and write a new positive feeling based intention. I’ll be posting these little mini moon updates over on Instagram, so be sure to follow me there so you don’t miss them! The only place you can find them is on instagram.

It’s finally the end of the lunar cycle and it’s time for the 8th Moon Lunar Review. Lets see how I did on my goals… Did I accomplish them? Did some of them slip a little bit?
This month I noticed that I was not getting everything done that I wanted to. I decided to try something a little different today for how I review my lunar goals. First I’m going to start off with journaling writing prompts: what worked, what didn’t, and what I can improve.
what worked?
what didn’t?
what can I improve?
Starting with what didn’t work… I wasn’t able to allow myself time daily to accomplish my goals for this lunar cycle. Scheduling didn’t work either. I’m going to improve by trying habit stacking and triggers next lunar cycle.
Now for what worked. Starting actually worked. Sometimes starting is just the hardest thing to do. But also the guilt worked, when I didn’t have time or feel like I didn’t have time to set aside for working on these spiritual goals. Next I fill in what I did accomplish and make note of anything that’s left over. My Mantra for the Balsamic Crescent Moon is “I give thanks for what I have learned and let go of what has fallen behind.”
“I give thanks for what I have learned and let go of what has fallen behind.”
Jenny proczko, from owlsandindigo, 8th Balsamic Crescent Moon Goals Review
Lunar Leftovers
This month I’m trying something a little bit different. I do monthly leftovers for my regular bullet journal… so I’m going to try lunar leftovers this month for my balsamic review. I use sticky notes to record what is still yet to be done. I didn’t get to recording two meditations, I still need to write one more meditation script, and I also need to update my garden journal. These are the tasks that are going to carry over to next month or I’m going to try and complete them before this next new moon which is in the next couple of days.
Carry Over To Next New Moon
I also have a stickynote for what I want to carry over to the next new moon. I definitely want to carry over Techless Sunday’s, I really enjoyed that. and for Fridays I still want to walk or bike to work, and I want to read either four to eight chapters of my book next month. I’ll read either one chapter every two lunar phases or one chapter per lunar phase to get to eight.
Habit Stacking & Triggers
The next sticky note is for habit stacking and triggers. I have an 8 p.m. shutdown ritual that I normally do every day. But today I’m going to reorder it, so I can hopefully get in some of these other habits and tasks that I’ve been slacking on. At 8 p.m. I’m going to shut down, and then record my day and my 5-year Journal I’ll read my bedtime meditation early that way I can reflect on the meditation while I’m doing yoga in the twinkle lights in the bedroom. Hopefully this will give me a chance to wind down and do a little bit of reflecting while I get in that daily yoga flow. I completely failed on this month. Then after yoga I’m just going to keep winding down and read for 15 minutes before brushing my teeth and getting into bed to read more or for lights out.
8:00 P.M. Shut Down:
Record my day and my 5-year Journal.
Read bedtime meditation.
Reflect on the meditation during yoga.
Keep winding down.
Read for 15 minutes.
Brush chompers.
Read in bed.
Sleepy time.
I’m also going to habit stack my Techless Sundays. I want to wake up on Sundays and do a hike with my husband. When we get back we’ll meal prep. While meal prepping for the week, I’m going to be listening to podcasts. After I get done doing that the rest of the day I’m going to be reading or doing other activities that are your outdoors and just completely offline. No screentime at all. Except to play my next podcast or audio book.
Techless Sundays
Hike over coffee with the hubby.
Meal Prep Together.
Listen to Podcasts.
Outdoor activities (lounging on the deck or in the hammock).
Read or Listen Books.
Stay Completely Offline & No screen time.
Fit Fridays…. I don’t know how this is going to go…. but I’m going to have a rule that I can’t have coffee at home on friday mornings. Hopefully this will make it so I leave and actually get to a coffee shop or a cafe to have coffee or tea at the cafe. Then I’ll already be at a cafe and I can work remotely for the day.
My little tracker was supposed to be wheat stocks and I really like how it turned out. Then I go back through and star the items that I actually started. Afterwards I take the sticky notes from this Lunar Goals Review and move them forward into the next new moon phase.
Were you able to finish your goals for this lunar month? Did you do a little better than me? I totally slacked on yoga, but I’ve got a plan for next month, so I’m feeling a little bit better about it already. I can’t wait to see your answers in the comments down below.
Today I’m sharing my 8th Full Moon Goal Setting Check In. I really enjoyed creating the my August Plan With Me featured in my spreads. So grab a cup of tea and your favorite pen, and set check in on your monthly goals with me!
The theme this month is receive abundance and that is because we are in the first harvest. On every full moon check in, I always ask myself two things: what have I succeeded in this lunar month? And what can I improve?
There’s always things that we can improve on whether we’re actually on top of our goals and have gotten everything done. There’s definitely little things along the way that we could have done better.
what have I succeeded in this lunar month?
what can I improve?
One of my goals was to schedule time in my planner to make time to sit down and actually do some of my goals and work on my goals. I got those scheduled, but unfortunately throughout the flow of each day I had to shift things around. Scheduling just didn’t work a couple of days this week, in fact, I actually had to push it to the next day. So there was definitely something I could have done better.
I technically achieved one of the eight steps for my entire goal this month by scheduling it. But I could’ve done it better. I should have taken into account the workload that I had AND everything that I had to do in the three pillars of my life which are personal, home, and my business.
Unfortunately, I just didn’t think about that…. and …. I should have. That’s something that I’m going to be improving on throughout the rest of the month and also in future months.
What progress have you made on your goals this month? Are you on track for the Balsamic moon or did you have to retool your goals and intentions for the month?
Today I’m sharing my 8th New Moon Goals. So lets go ahead and start with our new moon beginnings. I really enjoyed creating the my August Plan With Me. So grab a cup of tea and your favorite pen, and set your monthly goals with me!
I’m also using some oil to make this feel special. This is actually a custom oil, it’s got a bunch of different herbs in it, that I’ve been using for years. Shout out to Sarah K. the beautiful soul that I made this very bottle with all those years ago. I use this oil on special occasions or for goal-setting practices like today.
This month I’m using Illuminated Tarot Guidebook and Deck, you can actually use this deck as playing cards as well. This layout is from my August Monthly Plan With Me. I like to start by shuffling the deck 3 times, or whatever feels good, and then I cut the deck. This month for my journaling prompts I’ll be focusing on:

I like to write down any notes that jump out at me from the guidebooks as I journal. This month I pulled all Spades from the Illuminated Tarot Deck. I drew the King of Spades, the Eight of Spades, and the Jack of Spades. The King of Spades is the Emperor and he stands for wisdom experience and Authority. The Jack of Spades stands for caution and potential. The Eight of Spades is Justice, standing for reason and fairness.Out of these themes, I create my mantras for this month with my Mantra Maker on the opposite side of this spread. My mantras for this 8th New Moon are:
“I am full of wisdom experience and Authority in my knowledge.”
“I can live my dreams goals and potential.”
“I will be cautious, just, and fair to myself.”
“I set these goals to gain wisdom for myself and to live up to and beyond my potential.”
This month’s lunar theme is:
receive abundance
My mantra for this cycle is:
“The tools to achieve my goals are already inside me. I’ve set these goals to gain wisdom and to be the best version of myself.”
JENNY PROCZKO, 8TH MOON mantra 2019
Then I write the eight steps that I’m going to be taking this month to help me achieve these goals for this lunar month. I always make sure that these steps actually relate back to my yearly spiritual goals.
You might recognize this bullet journal spread, it’s from my August Plan With Me. Make sure you check it out to see the rest of my journal for this month and my weekly spreads! I use this journal as my daily planner now and as my lunar goal setting journal.
Either by the moon or in the morning of each new lunar phase, I set a positive feeling based intention for each of the eight lunar phases. For this new moon I wrote:
“I set this intention to be the best version of myself. I feel it in my body.”
JENNY PROCZKO, 8TH MOON 2019, NEW MOON INTENTION
Then at the beginning of each moon phase for this cycle I will come back to this spread and write a new positive feeling based intention. I’ll be posting these little mini moon updates over on Instagram, so be sure to follow me there so you don’t miss them!
On the final Crescent Moon of the lunar cycle I do a Lunar Review of the entire month tracking my journey back to the new moon. First I think about what worked, what didn’t, and what I can improve. Then I reflect on the biggest wins of the lunar month.
This journaling and goal setting practice is something that I do the night before every new moon or the morning of every new moon. This practice of short term, achievable goal setting via the lunar cycle, has grown really dear to my heart. It’s something that I can’t imagine not doing.
Using tarot cards in this way gives me a new lens in which to look at my life. It’s also given me a lot of inspiration and closure by looking at my life through a different perspective.
