🌕 Why the Full Moon is Powerful
-
Peak Energy – The Moon is fully illuminated, shining the brightest and pulling on both the tides and our emotions.
-
Illumination – Symbolically, it lights up hidden truths and feelings, showing us what’s ready to be released.
-
Completion – It’s the climax of the lunar cycle, marking endings, closure, and reflection.
-
Emotional Surge – We naturally feel more sensitive, intuitive, and “full” of energy under its glow.
🌑 Why an Eclipse is Powerful
-
Cosmic Alignment – An eclipse happens only when the Sun, Moon, and Earth perfectly line up, creating rare and intensified energy.
-
Fated Shifts – Eclipses are known for bringing sudden endings, beginnings, and life redirections — like the universe hitting a “reset button.”
-
Supercharged Energy – They amplify the normal moon vibes (Full = release, New = beginnings) x10.
-
Karmic Doorways – Often tied to soul lessons, karmic clearing, and powerful transformations.
✨ So when a Full Moon + Eclipse come together, it’s basically maximum energy for release, healing, and transformation.
A Gentle Full Moon Ritual to Work With the Blood Moon Energy
Gather what you need:

A small candle

A bowl of water (to symbolize emotional flow)

A crystal (you could use moonstone, amethyst, or fluorite)
Steps:
-
Create Sacred Space
Light your candle and sit quietly with the crystal near the water bowl. -
Breathe & Ground
Take three deep breaths, letting go with each exhale. -
Offer Release
Whisper aloud something you'd like to release—big or small. Let it drift into the water. -
Set Your Intention
Gently touch your crystal and say:
“I release what no longer serves me. I open to healing and clarity.” -
