Moon Rituals and Meditations: New Moon, Full Moon, and Eclipses

Moon rituals and meditations for each month, including timing, correspondences, and suggested ideas to make a full moon, new moon, or eclipse extra meaningful to you.

In the Spring of 2008, I began sharing my meditations at each full moon and eclipse, as well as occasional new moons.

This page lists each of those past meditations, which you may still wish to use for future meditations and moon rituals--perhaps not word for word or idea for idea but as a basis for jump-starting your own imagination.

Each meditation provides the basic info of the timing, astrological correspondences, and a short meditation.

I share this unraveling of images I have just before a new moon, full moon, and/or eclipse and you’re welcome to use what makes sense to you. You are welcome to use whatever you wish here in your work with this particular special time of connection with the universe around us.

For most of last year, I’ve been following this “story” of a river of emotions connected with Moon phases–everything from bridges over rivers to the structure that holds the river in its banks, to surfing the river, to becoming the river, to rising above the river in a parasail…all taking me “around the riverbend” to a beautiful new vista that is lush and green. For those of you who know me personally, you’ve watched in amazement and then horror at how some of these influences have played out in my life and how I’ve been healing from some heartbreaks and reached a place of happiness again.

Thus far, the past year’s meditations have included Bridges, Riverbanks/Structures, Surfing/Sailing, Parasailing, Becoming the River, Rocks, Rebuilding the Riverbanks, Covered in Healing Mud, Washing off the Mud and Dancing Naked in the Sunlight, Beginning to Play in the River Again, Full-on Splashing in the River, Speeding around in Fun but Directionless Circles in my little boat, Picking up a Passenger or two as we zip forward, Deciding to Go Ashore, Discovering that my Sword of Truth (speaking it) unlocked a special enchanted forest ahead.

Feel free to start at the beginning to read my story or choose just one to launch your own moon rituals.
