Full Moon Ritual: Harvesting Abundance and Setting Intentions

This unique ritual is designed to align with the Strawberry Full Moon’s energy, focusing on abundance, grounding, and setting long-term intentions. It’s simple, yet powerful, and can be done in the comfort of your home or outdoors.

Materials Needed:

• A small bowl of fresh strawberries (or any seasonal fruit)

• A white candle

• A piece of paper and a pen

• A small crystal (such as clear quartz or amethyst)

• A bowl of water

• A journal

• Sage or incense (optional)

Steps:

1. Preparation:

• Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed. This can be indoors or outdoors, preferably under the moonlight.

• Set up your ritual space with the candle, bowl of strawberries, paper, pen, crystal, and bowl of water.

• If you have sage or incense, light it and cleanse your space, allowing the smoke to purify the area.

2. Grounding Meditation:

• Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Take a few deep breaths, inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth.

• Visualize roots growing from the base of your spine, extending deep into the earth. Feel the grounding energy of the earth stabilizing and supporting you.

• Spend a few minutes in this grounding meditation, feeling connected to the earth and the present moment.

3. Lighting the Candle:

• Light the white candle and place it in front of you. The candle symbolizes illumination and clarity.

• As you light the candle, say: “I light this candle to honor the Strawberry Full Moon and to bring clarity and illumination to my intentions.”

4. Setting Intentions:

• Take the piece of paper and pen. Write down your long-term goals and intentions. Be specific and realistic, aligning them with the practical energy of Capricorn.

• As you write, visualize each intention manifesting in your life. Feel the emotions of achieving these goals.

5. Affirmations with Strawberries:

• Hold the bowl of strawberries in your hands. Strawberries symbolize abundance and sweetness.

• For each intention you wrote down, take a strawberry, hold it to your heart, and say an affirmation that aligns with your goal (you can use the affirmations provided earlier or create your own).

• After saying the affirmation, eat the strawberry mindfully, savoring its sweetness and allowing the energy of abundance to fill you.

6. Cleansing with Water:

• Hold the small crystal in your hand and dip it into the bowl of water. Water represents purification and emotional healing.

• As you cleanse the crystal, say: “I cleanse this crystal to remove any negative energy and to charge it with the positive energy of the full moon.”

• Place the crystal in front of the candle.

7. Reflective Journaling:

• Take a few moments to reflect on the intentions you’ve set and the affirmations you’ve spoken. Write down any insights or feelings that come up in your journal.

• Reflect on how you can practically work towards your goals in the coming weeks.

8. Closing the Ritual:

• Extinguish the candle, symbolizing the completion of the ritual. Say: “I am grateful for the energy and guidance of the Strawberry Full Moon. I trust that my intentions are manifesting in perfect timing.”

• Thank any spiritual guides or energies you invited into your space.

9. Placing the Crystal:

• Keep the charged crystal in a place where you will see it daily as a reminder of your intentions and the energy of the full moon.

This ritual combines grounding, intention setting, and the symbolism of the Strawberry Full Moon to empower you and align your actions with your long-term goals. It’s a beautiful way to harness the moon’s energy and bring clarity and abundance into your life.
