The Tranquil Vintessa

The waxing moon is a time of expansion, momentum, and manifestation. As the moon grows in the sky, it carries the energy of forward motion, making it the perfect phase to focus on personal growth, new beginnings, and setting intentions for what you want to cultivate in your life.

One simple yet powerful way to work with this energy is by creating a DIY herb sachet—a small charm filled with herbs and crystals chosen specifically to amplify your personal development. This sachet can be placed under your pillow, carried in your bag, or kept on your altar as a physical reminder of your intentions.

What You’ll Need:

• A small fabric pouch (cotton or muslin works well)
• Dried herbs for growth & clarity:
  • Rosemary – Mental clarity, wisdom
  • Basil – Prosperity, success
  • Lavender – Inner peace, balance
  • Bay Leaf – Manifestation, protection (write your intention on it for extra power!)
• A crystal to enhance your intention:
  • Clear Quartz – Amplifies energy and focus
  • Citrine – Confidence and personal power
  • Amethyst – Spiritual growth and intuition
• A few drops of essential oil (optional, for added energy)
  • Lemon for clarity
  • Frankincense for grounding
• A piece of paper and a pen

How to Make & Use Your Sachet:

1. Set Your Intention – Before assembling your sachet, take a few deep breaths. Under the waxing moon, write down a specific intention related to your personal growth. For example: “I am stepping into my confidence and embracing my full potential.”
2. Fill the Sachet – Place your herbs, crystal, and intention paper into the pouch. If using essential oil, add a drop to the herbs before sealing the pouch.
3. Charge Under the Moon – Hold your sachet in your hands, close your eyes, and visualize your growth unfolding. Place the sachet outside or on a windowsill to soak up the waxing moon’s energy overnight.
4. Carry or Sleep with It – Keep your sachet close to you during this moon phase, allowing its energy to remind you of your intention and keep you focused on your personal growth.

As the full moon approaches, take note of any shifts in your mindset, opportunities that arise, or insights that come to you. The more you connect with your intention, the more powerful your growth will be.
