Meditation

Some people also choose to practice specific types of meditation during the full moon, such as a guided full moon meditation, mantra meditation, or visualization.

Whatever method you choose, remember to approach your meditation with an open mind and heart to empower yourself in accessing the inner guidance of your higher self, and spirit guides, and angels to empower and support your spiritual journey.

Moon Gazing

Moon Gazing Amidst full moons, moon gazing is a wonderful practice. Find a quiet place where you can see the moon clearly.

Sit comfortably and focus your gaze on the moon. As you gaze at the moon, allow your mind to become still and peaceful, your eyes to relax and your awareness to open. Don’t try to make anything specific happen, just stay present and aware, observing what you feel, see and experience.

You may want to set an intention or say a prayer to connect with the energy of the moon, or your guides and angels and allow the glow of the moonlight to reveal whatever will most serve you now.

Creating or Decorating An Altar

An altar is a sacred space where you can connect with the divine amidst the amplified energy of the full moon, and is a common component of a moon ritual. You can use any surface as an altar, such as a table, a shelf, a windowsill, or even outside on a rock, tree stump or at the base of a tree.

Decorate your altar with items that have spiritual significance to you, such as crystals, candles, flowers, symbols or pictures. You may wish to have items to represent the 5 elements, or specific guides or angels you wish to work with.

If you are setting specific intentions for what you would like to manifest, fill your altar with symbols that represent this manifestation coming into being.

Journaling

Automatic Writing

Full moons are a great time for inner reflection and contemplation. Taking the time to reflect and put your thoughts and feelings into writing in a journey can empower you to connect with your inner self, and gain clarity and insight into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors as well as what it is you now value and wish to prioritize in your life.

You may find it helpful and empowering to write down what you want to let go of and what you now want to manifest and call forth in your life.

You can also reflect on your spiritual journey and explore your intentions for the next lunar cycle in your journal.

Journal about questions like:

What actions can I take to manifest my goals?

What do I sense is blocking my progress or holding me back?

Where am I authentically showing up in my life, and where am I still striving to fit in or wearing masks?

What do I value most in my life at this point?

What new projects do I want to focus on in this next cycle of life?

Reflecting in a journal can be a powerful way to gain clarity and insight into your spiritual journey.

Oracle Card Readings

Full moons are a great time to practice divination with oracle cards or tarot cards, to tap into guidance and insight from your soul, higher self and spirit guides.

Choose a deck that resonates with you, call in your team of spirit guides, and ask for guidance on how to support your intentions in manifesting. You can also use oracle or tarot cards to gain clarity on any issues that may be challenging you in your life.

Working with Crystals and Stones

Healing CrystalsCrystals and stones can amplify intentions you set under energy of the full moon.

Choose crystals that you resonate with and place them outside, preferably on the Earth and under the moonlight to charge them, then work with your crystals, consciously connected with them with respect and gratitude, asking the stones to amplify and empower your intentions to manifest with divine grace in your life.

You can also hold full moon crystals during meditation or carry them with you throughout the day to help you stay centered, present and open during the full moon energy.

Making Full Moon Water

Full moon water is charged with the energy of the moon and can be used for cleansing and purification. Place a glass jar of spring water outside under the full moon and let it charge overnight.

Once the water is charged, you can use it to cleanse your crystals, tools, and even yourself or your home by putting some moon water in a little spray bottle and misting your body and space.

Candle Magic

Candle magic is a powerful way to manifest your intentions during the full moon. Choose a candle color that corresponds with your intention and light it during your ritual. Visualize your intention coming to fruition as the candle burns. You can also carve symbols or words into the candle to further amplify its energy.

Full Moon Bath

Taking a Full Moon bath is one of my favorite relaxing and recharging rituals. At it’s simplest, a full moon bath involves simply taking a cleansing bath during the full moon.

But what makes it extra magical, is creating a sacred space within your bathroom by dimming the lights, you may wish to light candles, burn a lovely incense, play some beautiful music, and or listen to a full moon meditation to create a magical, relaxing and soothing atmosphere.

You may also wish to add salts, or essential oils to the water to amplify the energetic cleansing effect of the water.

While in the bath, take a few moments to practice presence, awareness, and mindfulness as you practice deep breathing, consciously letting go of all that no longer serves you, and calling forth specific energies to support your intentions and what you desire to manifest.
