What is a Full Moon?

If you need a recap of a Full Moon, click here! 🌕

A full moon happens when the moon is directly opposite the sun from the Earth. This means that the side of the moon facing Earth is fully illuminated by the sun, making it appear as a complete circle of light in the night sky.

As with anything in witchcraft, there are many different beliefs on what type of magick should be done during a Full Moon. Some witches believe banishing should be done. Others believe intentions should be set for manifestations. Still, others (such as myself) believe that the Full Moon is the best time for literally any spell you want because the energy is at its highest.

During the Full Moon, the Triple Goddess becomes the Mother of all beings. It’s a great time to work on intuition, spells of love, and prosperity. The Power of all Magic is truly at its peak, this lunar phase is key to either accept or reject projects, transformations, and manifestations that we initiated during the New Moon. - Spells and Things To Do on a Full Moon | Spells8

The Full Pink Moon

In the Northern Hemisphere, the Full Moon of April is often called the Pink Moon. Why? Well, during this time of year, a pink moss called Creeping Phlox begins to bloom in many different shades of pink. It would be pretty cool if the moon was actually pink, but alas we must settle for pink flowers and moss. If that does not fit with your region, that’s okay! Some alternative names for this Full Moon include Breaking Ice Moon, Frog Moon, and Budding Moon. You can also choose a name that fits better with your area.

The Full Sturgeon Moon

If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, you will have a different Full Moon name because the names for Full Moons are given based on the season. You are on the cusp of Fall – cooler weather, harvest time, and the beginning dying of the vegetation. The Sturgeon Moon ushers in the return of the sturgeon to the area, and while there may be no sturgeon in your area, you can honor the return of whatever fish are in your area. Other names for this Full Moon include Grain Moon, Red Moon, or Corn Moon. If those don’t fit for your region, feel free to give the Full Moon a more suitable name.

The Sign of Libra

The diplomat of the signs, Libras tend to choose their words and actions carefully to keep the balance on all sides. They seek compromise and truth, remaining open to all sides of a situation until they see a clear answer. Balance is very important to a Libra, so important that it is usually the end go in everything: relationships, work, and home life. A Libra will seek out harmony and peace, choosing to make decisions with logic rather than emotion. However, the desire to hear all sides of an argument can make Libra indecisive! They will need to be very careful not to get stuck in this cycle of diplomacy. Otherwise, they may end up stagnating and not making any decisions at all.

Divine Justice

While we can always hope that the justice systems we humans have put in place to maintain fairness in our societies will work properly, these systems don’t address the spiritual side. For a witch or other spiritual practitioner, there are a great many resources available to help you in your holistic quest for justice.

Remember, the energy of the Full Moon isn’t just for the one day that it reaches its peak. Personally, I give myself a three-day window for the Full Moon: the day before, the day of, and the day after. This works well for my practice and it may work for yours, too!

Whether or not I can work with this full moon is not up to me at the moment. However, I do need a good balancing- more healing sleep, a bit more hydration, more socializing out in the world if I can do so without catching any more germs, more fun, more cleansing work done, a bit of organizing in the physical and lots of organizing in the digital world.

Wishing everyone a happy medium, good balance, and a pleasant pink moon.
