This week, radical change is afoot! On Monday, August 19th at 11:26 a.m., we welcome this month’s Full Moon. Rising in the skies of Aquarius, this lunar event brings to a head events that have been lurking beneath the surface, but that due to resistance, haven’t yet fully manifested.
Featuring a total of nine planetary forces clashing with one another, this Full Moon will challenge us without a doubt. For this reason, it will be key to embrace change, constantly switch to a positive mindset, and practice radical self-love. Here’s the good news: Out of all the Full Moons of 2024, this one is truly a magnificent opportunity to show ourselves and others, our amazing resilience. After all, Aquarius is the Zodiac sign tasked with the unique skill of taking us from the past into the future. In its magic, Aquarius shows us that with any big change, also comes a euphoric feeling of liberation.
If you’re ready to embrace your future and all its brilliant possibilities, below are three rituals that will assist you in handling this August Full Moon fever.
RITUALS FOR THE AQUARIUS FULL MOON
Embracing Change
For this ritual, sage your space, turn a candle on with lit flame, and prepare to go down memory lane. It’s crucial to go over your phone, emails, diary, and even social media posts. Zoom in on the times when big changes took over in your life, and after writing them down, find at least two reasons why they needed to happen in your life. Now, fast forward to your life now and ask yourself: which changes seem to be taking place, and why do they seem to be happening?
Switching into a Positive Mindset
A small bell will be your main ingredient for this ongoing ritual. Light a white candle, smoke cleanse the bell with Sage or Palo Santo, and repeat the following mantra three times: “Whenever I decide to sound this bell, I bring myself back to a positive mindset.” Then, commit to ringing the bell every time you notice yourself spiraling into a negative mindset, you know what to do!
Practicing Radical Self-love
Prepare yourself a bath with roses, salts, crystals, and our House of Intuition Love Magic Dust. Feel free to add any other items you love. Once you submerge yourself in the water, repeat the mantra: “Nothing can challenge my devotion to self-love. I honor myself fully and radically.”
