Astrology has been a great resource and extension to spiritually in my personal journey. Paying attention to the planetary transits and how they are affecting me personally has helped me understand a lot and make progress.
Today I would like to focus specifically on the different moon cycles and how we can use these energies to our advantage. It takes the moon approximately 29 days to complete a full orbit around the earth and go through all of its phases.
New moons happen when the moon is directly in between the sun and earth. During this time it is good to think about stuff you would to start and implement into your life. What are some things that you would like to start doing that will better your mental and spiritual health? Set intentions for the month that you would like to see blossom. The new moon energy helps us with new beginnings and to feel hopeful for the future.
Full moons are a bit different energetically. Full moons happen when the moon and sun are opposing each other causing the moon to illuminate fully. During this moon phase we are analyzing what has to come to an end. Things we must release that no longer fulfill us and are causing delays with healing and becoming the best version of ourselves.
Now knowing what these two most important moon phases mean spiritually, how can we implement that knowledge to ourselves personally? This is where astrology comes into play. The moon changes zodiac sign every 2.5 days, knowing what sign the moon is during these moon phases can help us know what to focus on individually.
This Thursday May 7th there will be the last super full moon of the year 2020 in the sign of Scorpio. During this time we are going to be releasing and shedding what is no longer working in our benefit. Scorpio is the sign of transformation, let go of things that weight you down and make space for the new to come in. A lot of intense emotions could be surfacing during this time, do not be afraid to dive deep into the unknown.
I challenge you to evaluate yourself and come up with a few things you would like to let go of. It could be negative self talk, bad eating habits, anything that you feel you are ready to release this full moon. If you are having trouble coming up with ideas, try and meditate. Let your thoughts flow and sit with them. This website can help provide more insight about the full moon and what to keep in mind.
Write down those things on a piece of paper with the intention of shedding them from your life. Burn your paper and visualize the items on your paper being released into the responsibility of the universe. Breathe and let go.
Happy Healing!
