We have talked a great deal about releasing at the Full Moon. It's natural that we would want to release anything that isn't for our highest good and the Full Moon is a great time to do this.
The Full Moon is the peak of the Lunar cycle. It's the time when the seeds of intention that you planted at the New Moon have the maximum potential to come to fruition. This is what we call manifestation and it happens far more efficiently and readily when you make a definite space for it to enter into our life.
When you cleanse and clear away what is no longer needed in your life, you create a space/void of potential that allows room for your manifestations to appear/be born/appear in your life as if by magic!
We have focused mainly on releasing old mental patterns from the past as the mind has a tendency to regurgitate and replay entrenched beliefs that are found in your conscious and subconscious mind, at any opportunity. The mind is only one of 4 aspects that make up each of us.
The others are the emotions, physical body and spirit. These are all vital components that make up the whole, but they all have distinctly different jobs to do. They do however have an interesting relationship with each other and the mind can use its energy to powerfully affect the other 3 in either positive or negative ways. So let's take a look at this in more detail.
The Mind
Releasing and relieving yourself of repetitive thoughts and patterns that hinder you/slow you down/stop you/keep you entrenched in the same old same old allows for the most potent transformation. If you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always got, right?!
What you are doing at the Full Moon is cleansing and clearing your mind, as the mind is super powerful and the creator of your reality. You want it to do the best job possible in creating your highest life and if you don't clear out the old ways of thinking there is no space or opportunity for new and higher ways.
Neurons in the human brain love creating connecting pathways and they do this very effectively with your repeated/habitual thought patterns. What you have to do to change old thought patterns is to stop thinking the way you have been as then the pathways lose their power, disintegrate and fall away. Now these will be thoughts that you have been having throughout your lives so it takes awareness, practice and perseverance to do this. I am not for one minute saying it is an easy task, but it is probably one of the most important ones for us to work on consistently.
You need to bring your consciousness and awareness to your thoughts and this is a practice called mindfulness. When you find yourself thinking a thought you would choose not to have anymore, you just need to repeat 'cancel clear delete' 3 times or 'delete delete delete' 3 times whichever is preferred. This prevents the energy of the old thought pattern from going out into the Universe.
As the old thought patterns are collapsing you can consciously choose an upgraded and positive thought instead. By doing this you create new/better/positive/abundant/different neural pathways. Affirmations and mantras are really helpful here to keep your focus. The subconscious mind also loves ritual and repetition, so when you find ones that resonate with you then you need to keep repeating them as often as possible.
Action:
Use crystals that connect with the mind such as Amethyst, Blue Apatite, Sodalite, Lapis Lazuli, Azurite, Charoite, and Fluorite. These will help to cleanse the mind and support positive thought processes.
Affirmation:
I completely cleanse, clear and calm my mind.
The Mind and Emotions
The relationship between the mind and emotions is intimate. How you feel in any moment determines your thoughts. your thoughts can then subsequently determine how you feel. I feel a vicious cycle coming on!
Most of us are not taught to work with and process our emotions. As one of the key aspects that makes you human, getting to grips with your emotional nature is very necessary.
Action:
Use crystals that connect with the emotions such as Rose Quartz, Amazonite, Lepidolite, Kunzite, Green Aventurine, Pink Tourmaline, Chrysocolla and Aquamarine. Diffusing essential oils will also help cleanse and heal emotions.
Affirmation:
I welcome and work with my wonderful emotions.
The Mind and Physical Body
You could call this relationship the 'mind body' because the mind has such influence that it literally shapes and moulds the physical body.
Learning to love, respect and purify the body that you are equipped with in this lifetime makes it far easier to stay in it and raise its frequency, which is essential for progress.
Action:
Use crystals that connect with the physical body such as Smoky Quartz, Garnet, Black Tourmaline, Hematite, Black Obsidian, Ruby, Bloodstone, Petrified Wood, Amber and Shungite. Upgrading food and drink choices, detoxification, salt baths and salt scrubs will all cleanse and heal the physical body. We can also cleanse and clear our home and any environment that we spend time in.
Affirmation:
I am in my body, deeply grounded and connected to Mother Earth.
The Mind and Spirit
The lower mind that you have been taught to identify with from an early age speaks loudly and rarely stops until you do something to make it! Spirit on the other hand whispers its wisdom and guidance. The challenge is to discipline and quiet the lower mind so spirit can be accessed and heard.
Action:
Use crystals that connect to spirit such as Clear Quartz, Labradorite, Tektite, Angel Aura Quartz, Blue Kyanite, Celestite, Selenite, Apophyllite, Faden Quartz and Diamond Quartz. When we meditate, get out in nature and journal we always create a stronger connection with spirit.
Affirmation:
I am completely and expansively connected to the Cosmos.
So when you choose to cleanse your mind, you can support this action by cleansing, clearing and purifying all other aspects of self as well! This is a really powerful action to take!
Always remember to take one step at a time. Start with whatever you are drawn to most and gradually incorporate other aspects of cleansing. No need for overwhelm!
Love and Full Moon cleansing and clearing blessings,
