A Full Moon is a magical, mystical period that helps you uncover hidden emotions and understand your deepest desires. This mystical energy is a gift we receive each month as the Moon ends her lunar cycle, and each time this transit reflects the energy of the zodiac sign that the Full Moon falls under.
While the New Moon represents a new start, the Full Moon represents the end of a particular lunar cycle, giving you the opportunity to let go of feelings, emotions, situations, relationships, and behaviors that no longer serve you.
The Full Moon is a time of illumination and release – the time of the month when hidden information and emotions are revealed and the time when you feel the need to eliminate these things from your life.
While the energy of the next Full Moon occurs on February 5th, 2023, you can actually sense the energy of this transit for about 48 hours before to 48 hours after the actual transit occurs.
That means you have plenty of time to benefit from this transit!
These are practices that can help you take advantage of this Full Moon and any Full Moon in the future.
You need to be in relationships and situations that celebrate your unique personality, and the Full Moon can amplify this need. It’s important to spend your time with those that deliberately make you feel better.
This is the perfect time to dig deep and re-evaluate the relationships in your life. Consider: which ones are no longer serving you?

The Universe will always create new opportunities for you, especially when you believe that the Universe has good things in store for you.
Like doing yoga outdoors if you can, grounding exercises are a wonderful way to get in touch with Mother Nature. Not able to go outside? Try practicing yoga surrounded by plants or near a window in the Sun.
There are calmness and peace that the Full Moon brings. Aim to take time to thrive in the stillness of the moment.
Writing down your thoughts is also an excellent method of manifestation.
Grab your favorite notebook and write down anything that comes to your mind during this time – the release of these emotions is more powerful than you know.
Contemplation and quiet may not feel like you are accomplishing anything at first, especially if you are new to this practice. When you are done, you will feel better, more refreshed, and even invigorated. If you practice meditation, you will feel better and find yourself more informed because you will receive clarity and information that you can use in your daily life.
Meditation can feel difficult when your thoughts are loud, but surprisingly, meditation can actually help your thoughts calm down. Meditation is one of those practices that don’t necessarily feel good at the time, but it brings more calm and centered energy than just about any other method.
Your Tarot cards and pendulums also benefit from cleansing and charging in the Full Moon. Often people who practice divination will place these elements in the direct moonlight to give them an extra boost.
