Create a Sacred Space

Since this is your full moon ritual, it’s important that your ritual space feels personal to you. Find a place either outside under the light of the moon or near a window where you can set up pillows, blankets, candles, incense, crystals, and anything else that brings you comfort. The goal is to create a space where you feel comfy, safe, and connected to your authentic self. Just taking the time to create and bask in a space like this will help you align with your Higher Self, raise your vibrations, and attract luck into your life.

You can visualize that the moonlight is illuminating an obvious path for you to walk toward your desires. This path is your luck. Imagine that by following this path, you can’t fail. Everything you want is obviously laid out in front of you. At the end of your meditation, remember to thank the moon for lending its energy to providing you with good luck.

Full Moon Bath

Water is a powerful way to ground our bodies with the Earth. As you are communing with the ethereal moon, consider drawing a relaxing bath. You will become optimally balanced between your earthly body, and your spiritual essence. Plus, since the moon can directly influence water, you will be sitting in moon water embued with lunar energy. You can add essential oils, palo santo, or flower petals. As you soak, visualize the moon’s energy cleansing your aura and attracting positive energy and good luck.

Set Intentions

Write your intentions for good luck and new beginnings on a piece of paper. What areas of your life are you hoping to become luckier in? What would that feel like? Place your intentions on a window sill under the light of the full moon to charge it with lunar energy overnight.

Full Moon Circle

Gather with friends or a spiritual group and form a full moon circle. Hold hands, breathe together, and bask in the collective energy field.

Shadow Work

The full moon is an ideal time for shadow work, exploring and releasing negative energy or bad luck from your life. During the full moon, you may feel your emotions more deeply. Use this intensity to clarify what negative feelings or thought patterns are holding you back from getting what you want and feeling lucky. You can journal about it if that’s helpful. Burn the habits you’re ready to let go of and leave the list of new, or better habits you want to embody under the moonlight to charge overnight. You can also burn bay leaves, sage, or palo santo to cleanse your energy field.

Moongazing

Simply spending time gazing at the full moon’s surface and appreciating its beauty can be a powerful symbolic act of release. The moon is perfectly suspended in space at a distance that allows us to see it and ogle at it, but not worry that it will come crashing into our planet. The moon is an incredible example of a delicate balance. Allow this marvel of the moon’s perfect energy wash over you and inspire you to feel grateful for the world we live in. Gratitude and wonder are excellent gateways to opening yourself up to new experiences and good fortune.

Final thoughts

The full moon has been revered for its spiritual energy and great influence for as long as humans have been roaming the earth. By engaging in full moon rituals and tapping into the lunar energy, you can harness this powerful time for manifesting good luck, new beginnings, and positive changes in your life. Ultimately, good luck will come when you align your thoughts, actions, and self-care rituals with your fullest potential and the rhythms of the natural world.
