5 Things to do during the Full Moon

The Full Moon can bring out the worst in us. For some, it might stir up severe anger, rage, irritability, or stress. For others, they might experience fatigue or other physical issues. Perhaps you've noticed some serious chaos going on in your life.

So how do we harmonize with the energy of the Full Moon?

 

Many Great Teachers recognize the Full Moon as a time of conflict OR opportunity. For the person who meditates and is on a spiritual path, it's used as an opportunity. At this time we can harness the energy reflecting from our Sun and use it for healing, spiritual development, and most importantly to bless our Earth and all those in need. The energy coming down towards Earth at this time is very strong. It's natural for it to stir up our emotional nature. We just need to recognize it and calm those waves down.

**Please note: The energy for the Full Moon goes on for 5 days. 2 days before, 2 days after, and day of.

Here are a few great, easy, and highly effective tips to get you started:

 

1. Get Clean! Energetically that is . . . Take a Salt Bath. 

Salt is an excellent way to cleanse negative energy out of our system. In fact, Pranic Healers take salt baths not only to help the body heal faster but also to help prevent any physical or psychological issues from developing. In general, we use straight-up table salt. It's cheap, it's super effective and has green energy in it which is excellent at breaking up negative energy. But by all means, if you want to get fancy, feel free to use Sea Salt, Himalayan Salt, etc. Just avoid Epsom Salts. They're great, but have a completely different purpose than what we're after here.

Fill the tub, and add anywhere from 2 cups to 2 pounds of salt. Soak for no longer than 20 minutes. Rinse off and relax.

Don't have a bathtub? Add the table salt to your shower gel and let it sit on the body for a few minutes before you rinse it off in the shower.

Feel free to take as many salt baths as you need. Cleansing before meditation will allow your system to absorb more energy.

2. Get your friends together, throw a Full Moon Celebration!

Did you know that when we meditate in a group of 7, it's the equivalent to 100 people or more meditating at the same time? That's a lot of energy! So grab your friends and let it pour. 

No one around to celebrate with? Tune in online! Pranic Healing centers all over the world offer on-line Full Moon Meditations for planetary peace.

3. Tip: Organize your Projects, Goals, and Prayer Lists before meditating.

Full Moon meditations are very powerful. However, we can only absorb so much energy at one time. Eventually, our system gets full. The rest of the energy sits in the aura and disperses as time goes on. So why not make good use of that excess energy? Here are a few ideas:

Is there anything going on in the world that could use some TLC? People, places, political turmoil, natural disasters etc...

What about your family, partner, friends, and associates . . . how are they doing?

Next, finances, goals, and projects . . . All these things need energy to materialize and be successful.

To release the excess energy after you meditate, simply bring your hands up to chest level, palms facing outwards. Focus on your breath. As we receive these blessings freely - we share these blessings freely. Now go through your list of things to direct this excess energy too. If you're blessing people, only focus on them for a few moments at a time. Sometimes the energy is very strong - and you don't want to overwhelm them.

Blessing is very effective and not to be underestimated. The key is to do is consistently over a period of time.

4. Check-in with yourself. How are YOU doing?

The Full Moon does a great job of shedding light into the darker aspects of our personality. What came up for you during this time? Take note. We all have our stuff to work on. Use this period as a time of as an opportunity for your own growth and development. If you need extra support or a healing session feel free to reach out.

5. Treat yourself like the Queen or King that you are.

For our system to handle intense meditations we need a strong healthy body. This is often overlooked. Your body is the current house for your spiritual development. Treat it with care.

Are you getting enough sleep? Make the effort. This is when your body has a chance to heal and restore itself.

How's your diet? Any adjustments to be made? All of us are unique and need different things. Try to eat food that's fresh. That way there is still some prana (life force) in it.

Exercise. No matter what type of meditation we do, we need to be exercising. Ideally, it's good to have a routine throughout the week. Once again, whatever is best for your personality and body type is great. Make sure you’re taking care of #1.

Enjoy the Full Moon! Let it be a time of opportunity and make sure to use the energy to improve the quality of your life and others.
