Full Wolf Moon
Friday 6th January 2023
Happy first Full Moon of 2023 & it is a micro moon! A micro moon is basically the opposite to a Super Moon, which means the moon is at it’s furthest point away from Earth.
According to the Old Farmers Almanac, this Full Moon is known as the “Wolf Moon”. Allegedly because this is the time of year when wolves would be howling at the moon, because they were getting hungry in the winter
Just a quick note, Mercury is in retrograde until January 18th, so now is probably not a good time to be doing anything majorly techy or making any big travel plans. It’s also worth noting, that now is a good time to check & triple check your facts as rumours will be swirling round, and really try to listen to what someone has to say before you react.
So this Full Moon is the perfect time to start the year with a clean slate. Use it as a way to transform your 2023, let go of things that don’t serve you, cut ties and resist the temptation to reconnect with people who don’t make you feel good. Make space for fresh moments for yourself.
Let go of gossip, stress, burdens and emotions you have been holding on to. Let them all go!
Full Moon Rituals
Get comfy – snuggle up on the sofa under a blanket and read your favourite book. This Full Moon is in Cancer, a nurturing Zodiac sign which wants you to feel safe & secure
Check in on yourself – how is your emotional state? Practice self-compassion, journal & reflect on how this Full Moon affects you
Meditate – what do you want to let go of? Use visualisation as a way of seeing yourself releasing what has been weighing you down emotionally
Cleanse your space – get rid of negative energy by cleansing your space with ethically sourced Palo Santo or a cleansing mist
Use a mantra – “I release….and welcome in…”
Manifest – write down everything you want this year, place them in a special jar or box and let them soak in the moonlight overnight. Bring them back in in the morning, and keep them somewhere where you can see them daily
Get cosy, focus on what you want to let go and make plenty of space for allllll the good stuff coming your way in 2023.
Happy Full Moon
