April 2018 Full Moon Ritual - Scorpio
Even though we all come from different backgrounds, deep down we
all long for love, safety, comfort, and peace.
We want to feel a lightness and a joy as we move through the cycles and
changes of life.
Life is always changing, we are always changing, and that is what the April Full Moon has come to
remind us of.
Falling in the water sign of Scorpio, the April 29-30th Full
Moon is going to be guiding us to accept and surrender to the changes in our
lives and use them as a vehicle to transform and heal the parts of us that are
hurting. I am so ready for this full moon. I am exhausted from hurting and I know I am not alone.
In order to do this, we need to be comfortable with ourselves
entirely. We need to accept ourselves entirely. We need to be able to sit in
the uncomfortable parts, the murky parts, the hidden parts of our soul and
embrace exactly who we are.
This ritual is designed to help you do just that and will create
a powerful shift that will help you to work with the energies of the Scorpio
Full Moon.
Scorpio Full Moon Ritual
for Self-Acceptance and Transformation
This ritual is best done
between April 29-May 7, 2018
You will need:
·
5 crystals (you can substitute with flowers if you don’t have
crystals)
·
Smudging tool of choice (I like sage for this one)
·
Pen and paper
·
Essential oils - recommended Bergamot, Myrrh, Wild Orange, Frankincense, Sandalwood, Vetiver, Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Geranium and Cedarwood.
Directions:
1.) Begin your ritual by cleansing your space and your aura
using the smudging tool of your choice. For this ritual, I recommend using
sage. You can also cleanse the crystals you are going to use in your ritual. As
you cleanse, recite the following mantra or feel free to write your own-
“I cleanse this space with
light and loving energy. I cleanse myself with light and loving energy. I call
upon my guardian angels and spirit guides of the highest light to be with me
during this ritual. I call my Divine team to me so they can help me to
surrender and accept all of myself and all of my life. I wish to release all
that is blocking and holding me back from loving myself and accepting what has
transpired in my life. I want to surrender, I want to feel free and light with
whatever has come my way. I want to feel free in myself and free to be myself.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
2.) Now, light your incense or put your diffuser on with essential oils. This is
just to create a nice ambience for your ritual. You can also light a candle and
put on some relaxing music too if you wish. Have your crystals (or flowers if
using) nearby.
3.) Next, take your pen
and paper and write at the top of your page- “My
greatest fears are….”
Before you start writing. Take a moment to jump up and down and
move your body. This helps you to get out of your head and gets the energy
flowing so you can release better. After a few minutes of physical movement,
begin writing whatever comes to your mind. Really try to dig deep and to get it
all out. Write down every fear that comes to your mind, big or small. Release
it all out onto the paper.
4.) Take some deep breaths and just take a moment to check in
with yourself and the thoughts or feelings that may be stirring. Be gentle with
yourself and allow yourself to sit in whatever has come up for you. Be ok with
any thoughts and feelings that have arisen.
5.) Now, lay down on the floor or on your bed in a comfortable
position. Take your crystals one at a time and gently rub them to with your
hands to generate some heat and energy. Place the first crystal on your heart
center. Place the second crystal just below your belly button. Place the third
crystal over your third eye (middle of forehead). Take the remaining two
crystals and hold them in your hands.
Note: when
choosing the crystals to work with, follow your own intuition and guidance.
While rubbing the crystal notice any feelings or intuitions about where the crystal
is best placed. You can place the crystals anywhere you feel, and you can also
use more than 5 if you wish. Feel free to adapt the ritual to suit you!
6.) Now close your eyes and take 11 deep breaths to help settle
your mind. Now bring your awareness to each of the crystals one by one. Feel
the crystal, see the crystal’s energy in your minds eye and thank the crystal
for being part of your healing. Take your time to soak up and feel each of the
crystals opening and healing.
7.) Take your attention to the crystal on your third eye and
gently repeat to yourself (feel free to write your own or to just follow your
intuition in the moment)-
“I am opening. I am
surrendering. I am accepting the flow of my life. I know I am always Divinely
supported. I know I carry the wisdom inside. I know that I am always guided by
myself and by the world around me. I am on the right track. I am on the right
track. Everything is working out perfectly.”
8.) Now take your awareness to the crystal on your heart center
and gently repeat to yourself-
“I surrender, I will no longer
fight the change or circumstances of my life. I will accept wholeheartedly my
life and all that makes me happy and uncomfortable and everything in between. I
surrender to all of it and know that I am loved. I love myself. I love my
life. I love the opportunities I have been given to transform.”
9.) Now take your awareness to the crystal on your stomach and
repeat to yourself-
“I love myself, I love myself.
I know I am strong. I know I can get through anything. I no longer have to
pressure myself. I no longer have to be perfect for I am perfect just the way I
am. I forgive myself. I accept myself just as I am and I know that I always
have the power to create what I desire.”
10.) Rest in this position for a moment and allow yourself to
soak up any thoughts or feelings or healing vibrations that you feel. Now, when
ready, open your eyes and take your pen and paper.
11.) At the top of the
page, write down- “My Third Eye Crystal wants me to know
this…..” Begin writing whatever thoughts, feelings or inspirations
come to your mind. Tap into that energy center and see what inspiration comes.
It may be a simple word, or it may be more, just allow yourself to be guided.
12.) Repeat this same process for the Heart and Solar Plexus
crystals also. You can also reflect on what you have written and see where the
Universe is guiding you or what messages you are being given.
13.) Take the piece of paper that you wrote your fears down on.
Look back over what you wrote and see if any new thoughts and feelings have
come up for you. Now, rip the paper as a way of releasing your fears. You can
even recite a mantra or affirmation such as-
“I am now free. I now surrender
to all and know that I am Divinely protected and guided. I am never alone. I am
safe and I am loved.”
14.) To close out the ritual, discard the ripped paper. You can
then keep the “crystal message” papers somewhere safe and keep your crystals by
your bed or on you for support throughout the week. You may also want to jump
up and down and smudge yourself one more time if the energy has been intense.
Happy Scorpio Full Moon!
