Moon ritual for your moon sign

Hello lovelies! Today I would like to talk about a ritual that I created a while back. This is a ritual that is designed to grow or invite a certain aspect of your moon sign that you might or want to experience. Please keep in mind that this is a template and you have to do research on the herbs you’d like to add. As it’s impossible for me to write this ritual for every aspect of every zodiac sign. Before I dive into the ritual, I would like to reflect upon what a moon sign is.

What is a moon sign? Your moon sign is part of the big three (sun, moon and rising) in your birth chart and is the sign the moon was in on the day you were born. Often people also find significance in the phase the moon was in on the day you were born. As this is quite a complex subject, I will leave that part out for now, but definitely look into it if you’re interested in it! Your moon sign guides your hidden and emotional parts (think of the moon card in tarot). A birth chart calculator or an astrologer can help you find your moon sign and tell you more about the aspects that are relevant to you.

Why do a moon ritual for your moon sign? What if you want that extraverted character that signifies a Leo or Sagittarius but you’re a Cancer and very homesy. Can you then not do a working for a Leo characteristic? No, obviously you definitely can do that. In fact, if that’s what you feel inclined to do, I all the more encourage you to do so. However, what I have found within my practice is that the effects of working with your moon sign will be stronger. The energy of that particular sign already resides within you and your energy. Therefore it takes less energy to bring about these aspects, as they are already there and just need to be magnified.

The ritual

What do you need?

A candle in the colour associated with the aspect of your zodiac sign that you will be working on. E.g if you want to work on the inner-creativity of Leo you might want to choose an orange candle. If you plan on doing this ritual long term (e.g repeating it whenever the moon is waxing/new in your sign to magnify the energy and aspects) you might want to choose a big pillar candle instead of a chime candle.

Three types of herbs that correspond to the aspect, Taking the inner-creativity aspect again, you might want to pick herbs like cinnamon or sunflower petals. If you plan on dressing the candle with these herbs, make sure they are safe to burn.

Any type of oil that’s NOT an essential oil. However you can dilute an essential oil that’s one of your three herbs in this oil. Then dilute one drop of the essential oil in a good amount of the regular oil.

A candle holder or a fireproof surface/plate

A candle snuffer if planning to do this long term

Matches

Something to cleanse your items with (E.g smoke, sound, moon/sun water etc.)

Mortar and pestle (If you don’t have one you can use a coffee grinder)

A tool to carve the candle

Optional: A crystal that corresponds with the aspect of your moon sign.

Timing Depending on whether this is a hidden aspect or an aspect you want to grow, you might want to choose to work with either the new moon or the waxing moon in your sign. The new moon in your moon sign only happens once a year, while the waxing moon in your sign might occur multiple times in a year. Depending on this you might decide to make it a long term working or a one time thing that you repeat every year. Important however is that the moon is in your moon sign at that given time. To further add intention to it (and make it more complicated haha) you might want to do the spell during the planetary hour corresponding to the planet that rules your moon sign. Even better if the waxing moon in your moon sign occurs on the planetary day that rules that sign. E.g. for Leo you might want to work with the sun planetary hour and day. However this makes the whole ritual complicated and is absolutely not necessary, but just adds an extra layer of intention and energy.

Steps

Very important and not mentioned enough in spells: Ground yourself!! Even though we are drawing energy from the moon for this ritual, it’s still good to draw energy from the earth. This is so that you don’t deplete your own energy levels.

Cleanse the items you feel need cleansing by your preferred choice.

If you choose to use essential oil, now is the time to dilute it in the regular oil. After diluting it, you can charge it with your intention.

Charge each herb with your intention and place it in the mortar and pestle.

Grind the herbs down in a clockwise motion, as you’re seeking to attract. While grinding the herbs down, focus on your intention and your energy flowing from you through the pestle into the bowl.

Carve your candle with your intention from top to bottom. Keep it short so that it fits on the candle. Alternatively you can create a sigil for your intention and carve it into the candle from top to bottom. Top to bottom is done as you seek to attract something to you.

Now dress your candle with the oil from top to bottom.

Lastly dress your candle with the herbs from top to bottom.

If you chose to work with a crystal as well, now is the time to draw energy from it and put it into the candle or energetically connect the crystal to the candle.

Call upon the waxing or new moon in your zodiac sign. While calling upon the waxing moon, visualise (or whatever method works for you) your energy flowing from the top of your head all the way into the sky to the centre of the moon. Visualise the moon’s energy meddling with yours and then your energy drawing down the moon’s energy into you. Take your time with it and feel free to repeat it as how often you see fit. You can choose to use the following wording or adapt it however you see fit: I call upon the insert phase in insert zodiac sign, Hear my plead, lend me your energy of insert intention So I may insert something that your intention will allow you to do So mote it be! Here is an example of how it might look like for the example of Leo: I call upon the waxing moon in Leo Hear my plead, lend me your energy of inner-creativity So I may grow the burst of ideas inside of me So mote it be!  

As you have the energy of the moon in you now, add your intention to it one more time. This can be through visualising or any other method. Then let that energy flow from your hands into the candle. Really let all of it flow into the candle.

Now light the candle and meditate on your intention with it for a bit if you’d like. If you used a chime candle you can let it burn out. If you used a pillar candle, you can choose to let it burn for however long you like and then light it every time the moon is waxing in your sign.

I hope you liked this ritual and let me know if you have any questions!

A Full Moon Release Ritual

Note: When using fire, always be safety-conscious. Don’t do this ritual on a windy night, never leave the fire unattended, don’t place it near anything flammable, and have water ready to douse it should the need arise, etc, etc.

Supplies:

Paper and writing utensil of choice

Fireproof bowl

Lighter or matches

Water (to douse the fire if things go wrong)

Cleansing method of choice

Steps:

Gather your supplies, set up your space, and set the mood.

Cleanse yourself, your space, and your supplies.

Open your circle and call to any deities, spirits, or guides that you work with.

Ground yourself.

Make a list of all the things you wish to be rid of.

Light it on fire and put it in the fireproof bowl. As it burns, say, “Like the moon pulls the tides, so too does she pull me. As she goes through her phases, so, too, do I go through mine. As her light fades, so, too, shall my troubles. As is my will, so shall it be.”

Visualize your troubles being given to the moon as they rise in smoke, to fade with her. Even if she is hidden behind clouds and you can’t see her, she will take them.

Wait until the smoke has cleared and the ashes have cooled to finish the ritual. Don’t leave early.

When finished, thank the moon and anyone you worked with, close your circle, and clean up.

November 2020 Full Beaver Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Gemini

This is not going to be the most pleasant moon, so brace yourself. 

If you're ready for swift and serious changes, then the November 2020 full moon that closes out the month on November 30 will bring some life altering shifts. This full moon rings in the start of 2020's fall/winter eclipse season. Eclipses are known for realigning us with our fates and changing up our current plans, so brace yourself and get informed on how the November 2020 full moon eclipse will affect your zodiac sign. November's full moon eclipse takes place in mutable air sign Gemini's territory, which fixes our attention on information sharing and the ways in which we communicate. When we combine the illuminating energy of the full moon with the foundation-shaking vibe of the eclipse, all sorts of revelatory information come to light. We may need to communicate our thoughts and emotions in a different way than we're used to.

  This energy is too chaotic for doing any full moon spells,

so spend time evaluating the changes taking place in your life instead. The eclipse is opening new doors, so keep an open mind to all the possible outcomes of your current situation.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

It is going to be vital to express yourself under this full moon. Instead of wasting your energy projecting grandiose ideas about the future, focus on the present moment in real time. Processing emotions and sitting down with a self help book will prepare you for the dramatic transformation of the eclipse. 

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

You may be feeling more stressed out than usual. This is because of the upcoming eclipse and its chaotic energy.  Take this time to chill and have a spa day. Make sure you are surrounded by things you love, and wrap yourself in a blanket with a nice glass of wine (or blunt) or maybe just ice cream if you don’t want to get turnt.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

You have been focusing on other people a lot lately, maybe too much. It is time to turn inward and take a good look at what you need. Taking care of your mind and body is going to be crucial with the eclipse. Listen to your heart when deciding the next step you need to take. 

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

It seems as if the planets have been aligned against you lately. You may have just gone through a negative period. Whatever the case, powerful healing energy is heading your way. This will happen subconsciously, so if you find yourself taking up old interests or exploring new ideas, that is why. 

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

This moon is going to be shining upon your friend group. Try to figure out who is a real friend and who is just your friend because it is convenient for them. Now is a good time to unfriend friends who are not really your friend and to unfollow pages or influencers who bring you bad emotions. Sometimes we follow people because it is familiar, but it doesn’t make it good for us. 

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)

Doors are going to be open for you, particularly with your finances. If you have been thinking about starting a business or getting a new job, do it! The planets are aligned to be at your disposal. You may also feel like you are the center of attention this full moon, so don’t let that go to waste! 

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

Balance is the key to maintaining happiness. If you are working too hard on work or school and you are ignoring leisurely activities or vice versa, find a balance. If you don’t, your stress load is going to drive you crazy and the solar eclipse will effect you very negatively. 

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

Prepare for a wave of unpleasant memories, emotions, and character defects on this full moon. Though it is scary sounding, think of it as a transformation period. Analyze your feelings, don’t beat yourself up or pity yourself too much, and come clean to anyone you have lied to. You will feel amazing after you confront any obstacles in your way. If you don’t, the eclipse next month will be catastrophic for your emotional state. 

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

If people overlook or forget your birthday, don’t be too hard on them. This year has been tough for everyone. You can’t expect others to be able to read your mind. This full moon is teaching you the power of clear, fair, and honest communication within your partnerships. While the shake ups of the upcoming eclipse may bring some love drama, diplomacy will clear things up.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

Things are going to be busy and chaotic for you. If you are unemployed or not in school, your mind will be full of anxious thoughts and overthinking will become a real problem. This is why you need to make taking care of yourself the #1 priority. The upcoming eclipse is going to do a number on you if you don’t. 

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

This will be a very stressful time for you. If you have had a lot of changes recently, brace yourself for more. Though this may seem scary, don’t let it crush you. The best way for you to cope with the intensity is to do what brings you joy. Throw yourself into a fun artistic project, put together a romantic playlist for your crush or S/O, or treat yourself and buy something. 

Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)

Your beliefs will be shattered and your sense of reality will be shaken to its core. This is going to be an overwhelming and intense time for you, but by building yourself a safe haven full of nurture will help you get through this time. Lean on your loved ones for support at this time, and they will help you through this period of intensity.  If you are interested in a psychic reading, click here
