While the Full Moon has a specific date and time, its powers are said to extend over several days. Thus, its effects were felt two or three days before and two or three days after. If from an astronomical point of view, the Full Moon simply indicates the moment when the star is illuminated in its entirety by the Sun (hence its round and complete shape), among witches and astrology enthusiasts, this lunar phase would be the moment when the powers of the Moon are most intensely felt. Hence the fact that rituals and celebrations take place on Full Moon evenings.
What are the powers of the Full Moon?
The Full Moon is a magical night; it’s the moment when the Moon’s energies culminate. During this lunar phase, everything becomes clearer, everything becomes achievable, more intense, more brilliant. According to some beliefs, during the Full Moon, the veil that separates our world (the tangible world) from the invisible world becomes thinner and disappears. Cosmic energies are therefore intensified. This allows everyone to practice magic. For witches, the Full Moon invites us to celebrate life. And, since the Moon is the star that governs our emotions, all our sensitivity is heightened. In all that is most luminous, the Full Moon is a time of forgiveness. It is the moment when we free ourselves from negative energies and everything we do not wish to carry or no longer wish to carry. Even more, it is a time to become aware of our own power. We release our emotions, we thank the Moon for its help, for its strength. The Full Moon would therefore coincide with the moment when our dearest wishes come true.
But the Full Moon doesn’t always have only positive effects. Known to cause insomnia, this lunar phase is also said to be capable of awakening certain emotions that we were trying to avoid. Beware of surges of stress, anxiety, or anger. On these evenings, the Moon ignores no sensitivity. For some people, the Full Moon is a fateful moment when everything is so intense that it becomes difficult to remain calm. This meeting pushes us to action, it reactivates the forces that lie dormant within us. If, in beauty terms, it’s the perfect time to moisturize our skin or cut our hair, from a psychological point of view, the Full Moon is there to question us. What do you want to reveal? What do you want to let go of? What dreams do you see materializing? It’s time to take stock…
