The full moon on October 1st is known as the Harvest Moon. This moon takes on this title instead of a traditional name it may have been given because it is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox. The Harvest moon is the most culturally celebrated moon throughout ancient history. Before there was electricity, farmers depended on the bright light of this moon to harvest their crops late into the night.
Harvest symbolizes the provisions that are made for us and the blessings we can be to others because of it. The harvest is the result of previous actions taken in a process or event. What have you been navigating since 2008? The answer to this question could potentially have huge meaning for you now. Although we only celebrate harvest once a year, our experience of God's provision and the spirit of harvest last year round. 

FULL MOON RITUAL: WISH GRANTED (detailed meaning and symbolism)

In the full moon ritual that was posted to Instagram you start off by gathering oak tree leaves that have fallen to the ground. The lesson of the oak tree is knowing that powerful things come from small beginnings. You may be close to giving up on a long cherished goal because things have seem to have become too hard, too boring or no tangible results have been seen. The message is to never give up. In this ritual you are drawing on the strength of the oak tree's energy, which is resilient, to push you forward and continue your work.

1. Gather some oak leaves from beneath its tree. Clean them and place them in a bowl. Add water with a couple of drops of lavender oil. Wash your hands in the bowl of water. Imagine that you are drawing divine strength, protection and huge amounts of luck to you from the oak leaves. Visualize yourself succeeding and imagine that your efforts will be richly rewarded very soon.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. Dry your hands with a white paper towel. Now light your white candle and recite this imagination prayer: Where there’s no vision, the people perish. My vision is that I desire to know more of God and the way he works. My vision is for perfect health, harmony, and peace. My vision is the inner faith that infinite Spirit leads and guides me now in all ways. I know and believe that the God power within me answers my prayer; this is a deep conviction within me. I know that the mental picture to which I remain faithful will be developed in my subconscious mind and come forth on the screen of space. I make it my daily practice to imagine only for myself and others that which is noble, wonderful, and godlike. I now imagine that I am doing the thing I long to do; I imagine that I now possess the thing I long to possess; I imagine I am what I long to be. To make it real, I feel the reality of it; I know that it is so. Thank you, Father.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. Take a green apple, a permanent green marker and draw a labyrinth on to the apple.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. Place the green apple and lit white candle on your alter.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You typically have three days before or after the full moon (new moon) to utilize the energy of the moons placement.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To find a detailed explanation of the symbolism and meaning of this ritual, check out the Blog I’ll be posting tomorrow evening on my website; Wednesday September 30th.

  • The lavender essential oil is use for cleansing, protection and blessings.
  • Water symbolizes life because it is a major part of all living things and has the ability to nourish them.
  • The act of washing the hands takes on the form of "water as spirit" symbolizing a spiritual cleansing in preparation for the work that is still left to do and the need for clean, pure, and honest action.
  • The white paper towel symbolizes hope, love and your commitment to clear yourself of past mistakes. It represents a blank slate towards your future. You have the ability to create whatever you focus on now.
  • The white candle repels negativity. It is use to bring peace, spiritual strength, truth, and purity. It heals emotions and provides protection.
  • The flame symbolizes cleansing and purification, yet also the word of God in action. Fire purifies man and manifests itself as man's eternal life.
  • The green apple symbolizes spiritual knowledge and the expression of a harmonious organic life.
  • The green pen symbolizes growth, renewal and rebirth.
  • The labyrinth is symbolic of endurance and strength as we journey through the mysteries of life.
