Full Moon Esbats
« on: July 10, 2011, 07:40:03 pm »
So the Full moon is coming and I'm wondering what to do for this Esbat. :confused:
I've done some research, like correspondences; Moon is in Capricorn, falling on a Friday, and this full moon is often called the 'Blessing moon'. :)
I'd like to do some magic work during my Esbat Ritual, but am unsure of what to do this month.
I am wondering what others are doing during their Esbats and what they do during the Full moon, Routines, traditions and such...

What needs doing in your life?

I use the sign the moon's in, and the name of the moon (because there are tons of different geographic and cultural names for each moon!) as inspirations, not dictates. If I have something else that needs doing instead, I'll do that instead (though often, I'll adapt *how* I do it if I can see a way where it'll particularly fit.

This month, I'm preparing to move across country, so the sensible working would either be something related to letting go of connections and ties here (which I'm not *quite* ready to do energy-wise, as it's another 2.5 weeks before I actually leave), or preparing something for a safe travel and move (a bit more likely: I could, for example, charge a blend of herbs for that purpose, or as a way to bring a particularly energy to my new home..) or something else related.

Which one I'm going to pick, I'm not sure yet: things are changing so rapidly for me in terms of getting things settled that new opportunities for inspiration are happening all the time, so I'll probably wait a few more days to see what seems to be most important. And then look for "How can I do that given things on hand" (since getting more stuff is probably not sensible.) and "What do I really feel called to do, and how do I want to do that".

I tend to focus more on dark moon esbats, but as for the July full moon, I've seen it associated with weather lore and fertility.

Perhaps, considering the Capricorn element, some magic involving long-term career goals would be appropriate. I know I'll be focusing on my dad's business situation, angling for a position that, preferably, won't require us to move house at least for another year.
