A Full Moon Ritual: My Gift from Chapter 7
A powerful practice, born from my ongoing story and shared as a love letter to our gorgeous Substack community
Hello, beautiful souls, 👋✨
Within this post (below), I'm offering a deeply personal gift to our beloved community:
my personal Full Moon Ritual of Reflection & Rebirth journaling guide.
This isn't merely a timely reflection; it's truly a practice that has been meticulously crafted over many years. Born from my own life journey through countless full moon cycles, it involves the recording and revisiting that empowers my embodiment of the wisdom that has served me most.
This ritual has truly been a sacred piece of an even larger story I'm currently unfurling with you all—yet it’s also a significant finding from my next upcoming post, specifically Chapter 7. I felt a deep call to share this beautiful resource with you now, so you can experience its transformative power when you feel drawn to the next Full Moon's embrace.
To truly understand the heart and genesis of this ritual, and to dive into the deeper narrative it emerges from within it, I encourage you to read Chapter 7 here.
Until then, may this journaling guide excite you for our next upcoming Full Moon, and may its navigation through all you are experiencing deeply nourish your spirit.
Consider this my heartfelt love letter, guiding you to remember more of who you truly are.
With love and moonlit blessings,
💜 Lavender
Embrace the Moonlight: A Full Moon Ritual of Reflection & Rebirth
Dearly beloved, feel the radiant glow of the Full Moon upon your skin.
She's not merely a celestial body in the night sky; she's a magnificent mirror, and in her radiant reflection, we witness the shimmering culmination of our own paths. As the moon swells to her luminous peak, so too do we reach the zenith of our inner power, a sacred moment where the intentions sown at the current New Moon—and those from about six months ago in her very same sign—begin to unfurl into glorious bloom. Therefore, each Full Moon carries a whisper of connection to its New Moon counterpart, which is truly a cosmic echo, a beautiful thread weaving through the tapestry of your personal growth.
The Full Moon invites us to linger in her soft embrace, to reflect upon the breathtaking tapestry of our current being, to meditate deeply upon our most cherished dreams, to recharge our inner wells of energy, and to whisper profound gratitude for every experience, every triumph, and every gentle lesson learned.
This is a precious pause before her gentle descent, before the cycle begins anew. For this ritual, dear one, take a moment to commune with the moon's wisdom and your own heart.
This current Full Moon is in:

A Luminous Look Back: Reflecting on Your Journey
Take a breath, and cast your gaze back to the New Moon six months ago, the one that shared this same astrological sign. You may be surprised by the beautiful synchronicity that unveils itself. Often, the very themes you were exploring then may reappear, perhaps as gentle reminders or as profound shifts forward in your journey. This unfolding becomes a divine ledger, a testament to your blossoming and the remarkable strides you've made.
The last New Moon was in:

✨ Allow your heart to guide you as you ponder these gentle reflection queries:
What tapestry of experiences were you weaving during that corresponding New Moon (six months ago)?
What sacred intentions did you set then?
Do those same intentions still reside within your heart now?
How have you, in your beautiful essence, progressed upon your journey of these sacred intentions?
In what exquisite ways have you blossomed and remembered more of who you really are?
What single, simple action can you take in this Now moment to gracefully move forward towards those intentions?
Lunar Contemplation: A Gentle Meditation
Close your eyes, my dear, and journey within.
✨ Allow the current lunar cycle, from the last New Moon (approximately 14 days ago) to this very moment, unfurl before your mind's eye.
What beautiful stories have unfolded since the New Moon?
In what tender ways have your intentions begun to manifest in your life?
How has the landscape of your life gracefully shifted over the past month (looking at the last Full Moon, up until this Now moment)?
Do you feel a gentle ease with these changes, or does your heart yearn for something different?
Recharging Your Inner Glow: Embracing Your Power
✨ The Full Moon is a potent time to replenish your inner reservoirs, to stand tall in your truth.
From your current intentions, what feels bathed in the light of success?
What are the most luminous goals dancing in your heart right now, and why do they call to you so deeply?
What shadows, if any, seem to obscure your path to these desires?
Where might you be holding back your magnificent potential, perhaps from a quiet fear of stepping outside the familiar, or a small whisper of doubt?
What brave, most important action step, taken under this Full, knowing Moon, can help you step out of your comfortable confines and truly leap towards your deepest intention?
And what, if any, still yearn for a different path?
A Grateful Heart: Showering Blessings Under the Moonlight
✨ Now, let your heart swell with gratitude, a luminous offering to the universe under the Full Moon’s blooming aura.
For what blessings, big and small, are you profoundly thankful?
However humble or grand, what milestone or signpost fills you with tender glee?
What bright possibilities are you eagerly looking forward to embracing?
What do you cherish most about the unique, radiant soul that you are?
What brings you the deepest joy in your current circumstances?
And finally, my love, what is it that you adore most about this precious gift of life itself?
Other Moonlit Musings
✨ Is there anything additional on your heart, or echoing within you, that you’d like to record here to remember, proclaim, or settle more deeply into?
