Full Moon Ritual
The Full Moon in Sagittarius is here to awaken you to your truth.
My Friend,
Are you feeling this Full Moon energy…? 🌖
The Strawberry Moon is upon us today, and will be visible tonight as she peaks in the early hours of tomorrow morning.
This Full Moon is in the sign of Sagittarius, and offers us an invitation to embrace authenticity and commit to honouring the truth of who we are.
As the Moon opposes the Sun in Gemini, she is bringing our attention to how we think, what we believe, and the lens through which we see the world. This is a strong moment to reflect on our relationship with our beliefs and our life philosophy.
This Full Moon in Sagittarius invites us to rise above every day distractions, and brings the spotlight on our search for truth and purpose.
She is asking us to cut the noise, clear mental clutter, and reconnect with our faith with a sense of direction that comes from a deep inner knowing.
How you might feel…
The Full Moon in Sagittarius stimulates our desire for growth, adventure and action, challenging us to embrace radical authenticity. She invites us to use this energy to commit to being who we truly are, beyond external expectations and outdated identities.
What are we being asked…
During this timer, we are being asked to connect with something much higher and much greater than ourselves. With a greater purpose, a greater vision. We are being asked to recognise where we may confine ourselves to narratives that are keeping us trapped or small, and have the opportunity to dare to write a more meaningful story for our lives.
Inspiration…
The Sagittarius Full Moon is an invitation to reclaim our freedom, reclaim our voice, and reclaim our role as leaders of our loves. She Is here to remind us that meaning is not something we find, it is something we consciously create, something we can choose to create and cultivate everyday.
Rituals
I love to create my own little ceremony on a full moon. I find It such a powerful way to release and let things go, creating space to invite new things for the new cycle.
Here are a few beautiful things you can do to work with this particular moons energy from the comfort of your own home.
Make sure to be careful with your candles and any burning of course, and have a window open If you are lighting incense or burning Sage/Palo Santo. This helps with the air flow as you cleanse the energy you want to release.
Set Your Scared Space
To me, this is a ritual in itself, so take your time, do it with as much presence and intention as you can. Find a spot in your home, in the evening is the best time, and somewhere you can see the light of the Full Moon if possible.
Physically tidy the space, make sure it feels clean and comfortable. Get something to sit on like a cushion if you are on the floor, or chair, bed etc.
Grab all the bits that you have that make you feel good, any little trinkets, shells, special stones, feathers, pictures. Literally anything that has significance to you.
Also have close by –
Some paper and a pen/journal
A fire-safe bowl
Lighter/matches
A candle (purple, blue or white ideal)
Any crystals that you have (optional; amethyst, lapis lazuli, clear quartz, sodalite)
- A glass of water or herbal tea
Oracle, angel or tarot cards
By the way none of this is 100% needed, these are just the things I use for a full moon ritual, but it can be whatever you have that has meaning.
Lets Begin
Light your candle as you say “I welcome the guiding fire of Sagittarius. May this light reveal truth, wisdom and expansion in my life. Illuminate what is ready to be seen. Burn away what no longer serves.”
Burn some Sage/Palo Santo as you clear any stagnant energy in the space and yourself.
- Connect with the moon by stepping outside or looking through a window. Let the moonlight gently touch your skin.
Sit comfortably and follow the short guided meditation below…
In your journal, answer these questions; What limiting beliefs about myself or the world do I need to release? What truths have I been avoiding?
On a small piece of paper, write what you are ready to release. Eg – “Fear of being seen”, “Imposter syndrome”, “Settling for less”.
Safely burn the paper in your fire-safe bowl while saying: “With the fire of truth, I release what no longer aligns. I step into freedom and expansion.”
“Imposter syndrome”, “Settling for less”.
- Enjoy this Full Moon Yin Yoga practice to help release and let go of what no longer serves you.
Write down 2-3 intentions focused on expansion, courage or learning. For Example: “I open myself to are opportunities and divine adventure.” “I trust my inner compass to guide me.” “I commit to sharing my truth boldly and compassionately.”
- Hold these intentions to your heart and say: “I plant these seeds in the light of the Full Moon. May they grow with joy and purpose.”
- If you feel drawn to, pull yourself a card. Let its message sink in as you find a moment of quiet contemplation. Journal any thoughts.
Closing Gratitude
Hold your glass of water or tea, bless it with your intentions, and drink it slowly.
- Say “Thank you Moon. Thank you Universe. I trust in the journey ahead,”
- Blow out the candle and sit in silence for a few moments. Let yourself feel complete.
- Place your crystals in the light of the Full Moon to bathe and cleanse overnight in her glory. Receiving them fully charged in the morning.
I hope you enjoyed this at home Full Moon Ritual my friend. You can adapt and create your own for the future as you feel and connect with the energy of the moon and her cycles. A ceremony of rituals like this is such a wonderful way to ground back into your body, to ask yourself those questions about where you are, and where you want to be heading.
