Full Moon Energy: How to Work With It

by Kennedy Smith | Feb 10, 2020 | Cosmic Wellness

The concept of a full moon is widely known, but few are aware of the heightened full moon energy. This energy is substantially more powerful than that of other moon phases. It allows the mind, body, and spirit to express things in a more amplified state.

Since Ancient times the full moon has been seen as the realm of your subconscious and cycle of life and death. Buddhists see the full moon as a spiritual power.

You can utilize the full moon energy to your own advantage if done properly. Below I have listed out the ways in which you can use the full moon’s energy to your advantage.

Full Moon Energy Rituals

With the full moon in the sky, it provides the perfect time to spend a night alone and do some reflecting. Full moon rituals can be used to align your present life with the high energetic qualities of the moon.

Using holistic methods in your ritual, you can allow yourself to become aware of the surrounding energy and how you are feeling. Chakra healing is a common holistic method practiced on the night of a full moon. This form of healing focuses on your seven energy centers and how they relate to you emotionally.

Below are some practices you can put to use during the full moon energy.

1.) Journaling

Think about the past few weeks and what they have brought you. Have you accomplished anything major? Have you started any new creative projects? Do some self-reflecting about your current position in life. Write down anything that comes to mind, as this is your subconscious channeling through you.

Think positively and open-minded as you do so. Writing down positive things or experiences you wish to occur in the future will help the process of actually manifesting them.

2.) Tarot and Oracle Cards

Tarot cards and oracle cards can be used on this special night to align you on your life path.

Tarot and Oracle cards are great for asking higher powers for guidance with your current position in life. They can also be used to answer subconscious questions.

3.) Avoid Arguing and Getting Angry

Because the full moon’s energy is so strong, emotions will be amplified when released. If you are angry, this will only become an intensified feeling, same goes for any other emotion.

Remain calm and refrain from allowing yourself to be in situations where you could become irritated or upset.

4.) Visualization

Imagine your desired state of being and picture it actually happening in your head. Think of how you feel in this state. What emotions are you feeling? What did you do in order to get to this desired state?

Close your eyes and take a few moments to dive deep into your subconscious. Start creating images in your head of this desired state, then start to incorporate the other four senses. What are you hearing? What are you feeling? What are you tasting?

Visualization down to the specific detail allows an emotional connection to our desired state. This then allows us to work harder to achieve this desired state.

5.) Meditation

Taking time to meditate on a full moon night is essential. Meditation allows us to become aware of all our thoughts, emotions, and actions. We can then use this to analyze what we need to change in our lives.

Meditating during the full moon energy also allows you to train your brain to remain in a calm and mindful state. Our brains are always on, so it is important to give it a breakthrough meditation.

It is most useful to use mantras and focus on different chakras during meditation. Learn more about mantras here.

Performing these rituals during the full moon energy can assist you in harnessing the energy for your own spiritual growth. It is also helpful to utilize other holistic practices such as essential oils, herbs, or sound healing to bring you to a calm state of mind during this powerful energy phase.

Full moons are a very common concept, widely known by many people of all ages. But what about the new moon? In this article, you will learn how to utilize the power of the new moon. This moon has just as many powers as the full moon, but in different aspects.

A full moon is more about the concept of completion. A full cycle has elapsed, time has passed, things have happened and you now have a chance to reflect on all of that. On the other hand, a new moon is all about the dawn of new beginnings.

During the full and new moon, Earth is being shaken. Not literally of course. The tides are highest and lowest during these moon phases. The moon has the capability to shift the pattern of water on the planet due to its massive energy. This is why we want to harness the new moon’s power and use it to our own advantage.

Birth of a New Moon Means a New Beginning

Every lunar cycle the moon goes through, our spirit is reincarnated or re-birthed. We have new ideas, new strengths, new courage, and new will power. As the moon slowly dissipates, we are relinquished of that energy.

New moons allow us to look back at our experiences, thought behaviors, and general existence over the past cycle. Evaluating how we can improve ourselves for the better.

This moon creates a blank canvas for you to paint your dreams and desires on. Basically, we are using this powerful New Moon energy to create our desires.

Take Some Personal Time During the Power of the New Moon

With the strong energy of the New Moon, it is best to instill solitude and really sit down with you and yourself, that’s it. Being alone and taking time to dive deep into your soul-conscious can bring to surface unanswered truths and questions.

Give Your Self Love and Praise

Get comfy, take a nice hot bath, light a candle, listen to your favorite music, meditate, do whatever it is that makes you feel grounded and safe.

Do Some Reflecting

Start by reflecting on the past lunar cycle, or past few weeks. How have you improved? Did you accomplish anything major or have you been struggling? Write down everything that comes to mind when you think of what you have been going through.

Setting Intentions

In order to take full advantage of the New Moon, it is best to set intentions for the upcoming lunar cycle and physically write them down. In doing so, you are consciously thinking and writing about exactly what you want and how you are going to get there.

My favorite way to do this is to keep a small leather journal on me at all times. This allows me to write down any intentions or goals I have so I can physically see them. Not to mention, who doesn’t like having a cute journal?

Setting intentions and physically writing them down is part of the process of manifestation in which you harvest your thoughts to turn them into reality.
