With the moon coming into its fullness in the sign of Scorpio on April 23, 2024, we will feel its sting go straight to our self-image. Don’t judge Scorpio, she is a healer and she didn’t put those dark thoughts in our heads, she’s just reminding us that they are still there. It’s our choice to deny them or do something positive with them. Our candle ritual for this full moon is all about changing the old destructive narratives plaguing our minds so we can grow.
Both the New and Full moons this month harness the power of spiritual deep cleaning and transformation. The secret to your metamorphosis will be turning your pain into strength. Storm Cestavani points out that the Sun, Moon, and our friend Chiron will align to open the door to personal insights that could lead your soul to liberation, and closer to reaching your potential. Chiron is a minor planet in the outer solar system and called the wounded healer. Its placement in your astrology chart alerts you to what your inner traumas are and how to overcome them.
This month, the Full Moon is in the sign of Libra on March 25, 2024. Since there is also a lunar eclipse, Storm cautions us against doing any aggressive magic. Instead, he recommends we focus on protection spells. Libra is one of the signs that governs legal matters which makes this an auspicious time for resolving legal hassles. If that is not possible, boost your fortress of protection with this candle ritual to make sure your possessions don’t go wandering off.
New moons always represent new beginnings, even if it is starting the next chapter in a book or turning over a new leaf. To make it even more exciting, this month the new moon is in the sign of Pisces. That means the veil between you and inspiration is thinner which makes it so much easier to listen to your muse.
