my black fae full moon ritual celebrating Sankofa solstice!
🕑 Added 2021-08-23 19:15:56 +0000 UTChas life been chaotic, unpredictable, and just plain overwhelming for anyone else???? well it sure in the hell has been for me! SO, I love using the full moon to celebrate, release, restart, and manifest.
The full moon tends to mark a big build-up of energy, and because I'm also celebrating Sankofa solstice this month, I wanted to use the energy of this full moon to celebrate the beauty of black women.
what is Sankofa solstice?
Sankofa solstice is a black fae day community celebration celebrating black people in fantasy. through original stories, art, poetry, makeup, cosplay, and other creative mediums! the celebration will conclude on September 25th, 2021. also known as "the great procession by the BFD community.
this full moon ritual helps me harness the power of the full moon in my own black fae way. it's definitely a therapeutic practice to get back on track!
step one! clean up your space
I can't relax and really take up the power of the full moon when my room is a mess! so I take about 20 minutes to clean up my sanctuary. it's my own personal way of cleansing negative, chaotic energy.
get organized!
I make sure to get everything I need to help me harness the full moon's power. I just like to feel extremely relaxed and comfortable so I won't have to worry about anything during my ritual.
my materials
- my moon journal
- pens, pencils
- candles
- lighter
- water
- wine/ a blunt (optional ofc)
Meditate
meditating during a full moon Is an amazing experience. I have a perfect view of the moon from my desk. so it's always refreshing to take some time away from reality and be able to look up at the moon and realize, my problems don't feel so overwhelming compared to the cosmos.
so I take about 15 minutes to meditate. the full moon always reminds me how small I and my current problems are in the universe. so, I take some time to relax my mind and embrace any negative emotions that are holding me back, then release them to the moon.
what do I want to focus on this full moon?
like I said in the beginning, I wanted to use this full moon to celebrate the beauty of black women. personally, the black woman I'm becoming. I wanted to celebrate myself, my black skin, and my culture.
so I spend about 10 minutes writing 7-10 affirmations in my full moon journal
here are my 6 black women affirmations to say during a full moon
- I have the power to create anything
- I am in love with the skin I'm in
- I will not let society dictate who I am.
- I am a beautiful powerful, black woman. nothing can get in my way
- I am dedicated to achieving my goals
- I. Am. Enough
and the final step, RELAX!
After cleansing yourself physically and mentally, take some time to just sit and relax! indulge in your favorite hobbies,Watch a movie, sing, dance, and just simply enjoy the full moon đ
