Jessica Alba and her celebrity friends are embracing new beginnings as they honor the first new moon of the year—an event that coincided with Kerry Washington’s birthday celebration.
A New Moon Ceremony with Spirit Daughter
The actress-turned-businesswoman shared a clip on TikTok earlier this week, revealing that she and a group of friends took part in a “New Moon Ceremony.” The event, led by Spirit Daughter founder Jill Wintersteen, was designed to help them manifest positive change and release what no longer serves them.
Spirit Daughter, founded in 2016, explains that the first new moon of the year is a powerful time for setting intentions and letting go of the past. Participants in the ceremony lit candles, journaled, and meditated on their goals for the year ahead.
Kerry Washington’s Birthday and a Royal Guest
In addition to marking a fresh start, the gathering was also a birthday celebration for Alba’s close friend, Kerry Washington. As Jessica carried a plate of donuts with a lit candle to honor Kerry, she briefly passed by an unexpected guest—none other than Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex.
Though it was a quick moment, Meghan was spotted sitting at the table, laughing and enjoying the intimate celebration with the rest of the group.
Jessica Alba’s Personal Journey
Alba captioned her TikTok post: “New moons are a time for fresh starts, setting #intentions, and calling in new possibilities—and this night was just that. We connected, #manifested, released what no longer serves us, and tapped into our #power and highest vibration.”
The timing of the ceremony is especially meaningful for Jessica, who is navigating personal change following her split from longtime husband Cash Warren after more than 15 years of marriage. She has stopped wearing her wedding ring in public and has spoken about being on a journey of self-realization amid the breakup.
What’s Next for Alba and Her Celebrity Friends?
While it’s unclear exactly what Jessica hopes to manifest, she and her friends are clearly turning to spiritual guidance to navigate the next chapters of their lives. With Hollywood’s elite embracing the power of the new moon, it seems they’re looking to the stars to help them chart their course for the future.
Stay tuned—because, with this star-studded group, there’s no telling what might manifest next.
