During my life, I have always had a problem with discipline and having a strong will.  I’ve never been able to ‘force myself’ to do anything.  This is why wishing during New Moon power periods has been so helpful to me.  I have found that the results I wanted to happen in my life happened magically, without effort.

As a personal example of how it has worked, several years ago I was involved in an automobile accident that resulted in a back injury.  I was in minor pain much of the time and at least once a year my back would ‘slip out’ and the pain was so excruciating I would need medical treatment.

I recall telling several of my friends during that time: ‘If I would just do 3 or 4 minutes of yoga each morning, I know my back would strengthen and be pain free’.  However,  I just didn’t have the discipline to make myself do it.

A couple of years later during my Granddaddy Power Period I added to my wish list: ‘I want to easily find myself doing yoga every day for a minimum of 4 minutes each morning, restoring my back to perfect strong health’.  Then, I promptly forgot about the wish.

About three months later I awakened and something a client had said the night before combined with a series of realizations I had been having and that combined with an insight that occurred during my morning tea. SUDDENLY I found myself on the floor in my living room doing yoga exercises.  There was no self-discipline involved, I just felt no resistance and ‘found myself’ doing it.

This practice continued for the next ten days or so and then I noticed I was telling my friends: ‘I’m doing these exercises and my back is getting worse!’.  They encouraged me to stop – that I was doing the wrong workout – but I knew that it was a step forward  for me to at least be doing exercises each morning so I continued.

A week later, a friend of mine unexpectedly flew to my city for a visit and happened to know proper back exercises.  I began doing them each morning and results were immediate.  Within 4 months the back pain was totally gone.

That’s when I realized that among other gifts, the power of New Moon wishing can evoke magic that compensates for not having strong discipline and will.   Harnessing the feminine power of the Moon – magnetic, attracting, willing  – can be just as effective in obtaining our dreams as the masculine power of forcefulness and will.
