So I have been trying new rituals for different moon phases. Since the new moon was helping me get my new beginnings on. I decided to make new moon mala beads. Just something to Aid meditation. It was actually very relaxing… I almost want to do this to celebrate other times as well.
Anyway here they are. ! By no means is it professional quality but it was nice activity to experience. (Side note:don’t you dare count to see if there are 108… There are not… Cuz I ran out of the beads I was using hahahhaa)

Your mala beads look beautiful, @sarah9! 
And is that Tiger’s Eye I see? 
It’s clear this lovely piece was crafted with love- may it bring you many clear and soothing meditations!

Tigers eye and very dark amethyst as well. You cant see due to lighting in the picture. But blessed my hemp strings so that’s why I did not use a traditional tassel. I’m really working on being able to clear my mind. So I needed it to be important to me and something I actually felt connected to.
It also works as a fantastic grounding tool when scrying.
I really want to share pictures of my scrying mirrior but I’m very protective of that one. I will perhaps make a replica to share.

Your beads look great! Are you planning to make more?

So they are amazing. I use them as a grounding method. They are very very easy to make. I would be glad to put up some instructions if anyone wants to make their own. If you live in the U.s. due to shipping glad to make them for you free of charge. They really are quite magical. Staying grounded and centered during different practices.
I’m working on three other sets.
All to represent each moon phase. I have thought about using it as a celebration tool as well. While learning can be frustrating at first. You can really make works if art if you clear your mind and just let’s your hands do the work for you

Hooray!!! Thank you, @sarah9! 
I love your instructions, and wow! Yes, it does sound like quite the labor of love that goes into these beads! But I suppose that projects that need a lot of time and love tend to yield the most powerful and meaningful results
