It’s Time to Do You: New Moon Saturnian Vibes

Lately, I’ve been in a very clear mood doing me.

Not reacting, not explaining, not orienting myself around other people’s expectations, opinions, or projections

Just tending to my own work and building my personal gnosis.

There comes a point on any serious path where you realize how much of your energy has been spent trying to be legible to others. Trying to be understood. 

Trying to be acceptable. Trying to be palatable. And in doing so, you slowly lose sight of who you actually are.

We don’t fail to see ourselves because the truth is hidden.
We fail to see ourselves because we’re too busy pleasing.

This New Moon carried strong Saturnian energy for me. The influences of honesty, discipline, and willingness to cut away what no longer has structural value. Under this lunar current, patterns reveal themselves without distortion. What truly supports your growth feels steady and aligned, while what is merely familiar shows up as repetition without substance.

Saturn shows us where we’ve outgrown a role but keep playing it anyway.

This is why New Moons under Saturnian influence are less about planting glittery intentions and more about removing interference. 

For my Patrons last month, I created our monthly sigil called “FU.” Its purpose is simple and uncompromising, to banish anything that hinders your path.

Not just external blocks, but internal habits, attachments, and patterns that slow you down. “FU” is about release. Letting go. Clearing space. Removing what doesn’t belong to the next phase of your becoming.

Saturnian magick often works this way. It subtracts and subtraction is uncomfortable when we’re attached to what we’re losing.

While reflecting on this cycle over the last few months, I was inspired by Wendy Rule’s song “In Life is Death, In Death is Life.”

That phrase stayed with me because it names something we often resist. Cycles can sometimes be rough. Endings are not optional. And new life does not arrive without something first dissolving. THIS…. is what I’ve been feeling, sitting in the liminal space between letting go and beginning, holding grief and anticipation at the same time.  

We want beginnings without endings. Expansion without loss. Growth without consequence. But that isn’t how nature works. Life and death are not opposites. They are functions of the same current.

When something ends, it can sometimes feel like a punishment, but it isn’t. It’s space being cleared so something else can exist without obstruction.

In the video below, I share this conversation and a chant using this phrase, spoken in both Greek and English. It’s meant to inspire.

In life, there is death.
In death, there is life.

When you let that land, you stop clinging to what’s already leaving. You begin to hear guidance more clearly, not because the divine suddenly speaks louder, but because you’re no longer drowning it out with resistance.

This New Moon isn’t asking you to become someone new. It’s asking you to stop holding onto what you’re no longer meant to carry.
