Cleansing Spaces, Subjects, and Self

- best moon phases for cleansing is the third/last quarter, waning crescent and new moon

The first step to cleansing is physically cleaning. It shows care and respect for whatever is being cleaned. The action of removing dirt and grime is cleaning; the difference is that cleansing is the action of imagining or visualizing cleaning.

Autumn Equinox- Mabon ☯

What is it?

September's Autumn Equinox marks the first day of fall. It falls in the middle of the seasonal year, and represents the period between light and dark. It's a time of abundance, restoring balance, preparation, embracing change, expressing gratitude and reflecting on the year's harvest. We appreciate and learn from the light; we prepare and embrace the darkness.

How to Celebrate

Go outside and enjoy the last bit of warmth of the summer before the autumn chill comes- maybe even watch the seasons change. Taking a walk, going to a farmer's market, apple picking, bonfires or a final cookout with loved ones are great outdoor activities for this time.

Shadow Work

The intention of doing shadow work is to look deep into your subconscious in order to connect with the truest innermost parts of yourself. This includes acknowledging the parts of yourself that you reject or suppress. Only when you can accept yourself fully can you understand, love and heal yourself.

"Unless you learn to face your own shadows, you will continue to see them in others. The world outside of you is only a reflection of the world inside of you." - Carl Jung

Manifestation

Your imagination is a powerful tool in manifestation. It's trusting and running wild with your intuition, which is in tune with your subconscious, the storage center of your desires.

August Full Moon

aka sturgeon, corn and harvest moon.

It's a time of rebirth, the beginning of the harvest season. As we're busy gathering, preparing and setting aside for later, the nights grow longer. As the seasons shift, it will bring change and transformation. Sometimes we must shed old ways of life to make room for something new and better suited for us, much like the changing leaves on the trees in fall. We must look ahead and focus on the future. Banish excess baggage and protect yourself from the upcoming winter.

December Full Moon

aka cold, big winter, long night's moon

associated sabbat is yule/ winter solstice. The energy here calls for us to remain hopeful in times of darkness and look forward to seeing the light again.

During this time, the night is long and dark and the days are getting shorter and colder. Like the moon in its dark phase, the winter comes to bring renewal and vast transformation. Nature retreats during this time, calling for us to bring our focus into ourselves. Now is perfect for introspection, reconnecting with ourselves, and reflecting on the past year. It's a good time for planning and setting goals and having and spreading hope for the future.

Moon Magic ☽ ✦ ˚ ⊹ Properties of the Moon

The moon represents one’s emotional self and their needs in order to feel secure and nurtured. Often referred to as a Mother figure, the moon asks us to take care of our inner needs with a sensitive, empathetic and compassionate touch. She asks us to reflect on our emotional needs and take action where necessary in order to better oneself. Just like the phases of the moon, we have our own habits and cycles we go through so it’s important to be mindful of them and whether they’re helpful or harmful. The moon presides over the night, where many inner and subconscious happenings occur such as dreams and manifestations. Our inner workings have an impact on our lives, sometimes contributing to our habits. That’s why it’s important to look inside of yourself and take care of your inner self.

[caringforourselves]

I think it is really important to praise yourself sometimes. You’re not the same person you were yesterday, you’re constantly learning from your mistakes & your experiences shape you into the person you are today. Be proud of yourself even with the smallest progress you’ve made so far.

[eatpussypraylove]

It’s cool. Take a shower. Open the windows to let in fresh air even if it’s cold out. Listen to the wind rustling the leaves & the people walking and chatting. Clean something random to see that you can make a difference through action. This too shall pass
