Most people are familiar with the potent energy of a full moon. But new moons are just as, if not more, opportunistic when manifesting the things we want. We asked Xavier Villanova, spiritualist and Tarot reader for Tarot By Maisy, to answer a few questions about new moons and help us create the best new moon Tarot spread around.
Moon Cycles: New Moon Meaning
New moons represent the beginning of the lunar cycle—which translates just the same in our real lives. “A new moon is the perfect window of opportunity to ask someone out, start a new business venture, daydream, [and] cast your intentions into the universe,” says Villanova.
So, the question stands: Why do a Tarot reading under a new moon? Well, the Tarot cards are just supposed to act as a guide to understand how best to utilize the new moon’s energy. When asking Tarot questions, you will receive answers that are appearing for your highest good.
Tarot Cards to Watch For
When reading under a new moon, take special note if these cards show up:
The Fool: This go-getter, risk-taking card is peak new-moon energy!
The Magician: This card is heavily linked to manifestation—as it’s the second card of the Major Arcana!
Aces: “I’d also watch for Aces,” says Villanova—such as the Ace of Cups. They “signal pure energies or fields in which we can focus on.”
The Star: This card is “incredibly powerful for channeling, making a wish, or aligning your intentions with a Higher Power,” explains Villanova.
