Full Moon in Pisces Spell

The upcoming full moon on the 10th of September falls in the intuitive zodiac sign: Pisces. When the moon is full, it’s providing BIG energy which is perfect for achieving high impact results.

This is an especially sensitive time and you may find yourself feeling a lil' overwhelmed under the energy of this water sign in combination with the full moon phase. Take this as an opportunity to give yourself some extra care and love with this relaxing self-love spell.

Please note this self-love spell can be done at any time, it is just amplified under the power of the full moon.  

The Altar

The Ritual

  1. Cleanse yourself, altar and space by ringing your altar bell or burning your Cedar Smoke Cleansing Stick. Envision any malicious energies leaving.
  2. Hold each herb in your hands one at a time, close your eyes and meditate on the property of the herb. Either aloud or in your mind, ask the Dried Eucalyptus Leaves for assistance with healing and promoting health, Lavender for healing and improving mental health, Thyme for boosting courage, healing and strength, and Valerian Root for help with calming your emotions. Drop the herbs in your cauldron or mixing bowl.
  3. Mix all the ingredients together with your hands and envision the properties of the herbs working to achieve what you wish.
  4. Once you feel you have charged the herbs with your intent, lightly dress a blue candle with some of the herbs you have mixed (this step is optional but useful for boosting the spell OR if you do not have a bathtub, you can do a candle spell instead).
  5. Proceed to the bathtub and fill with warm water.
  6. Add the ingredients you mixed earlier into the bath and place the dressed candle along or beside your bathtub.
  7. Light the candle.
  8. Sit in the bath and get the infused water all over your body, including your hair.
  9. Lay in the bath until it gets cold and the candle has burned all the way down.
  10. Now, you can get out of the bath. If possible, it is best to air dry and not shower/bathe for the next 12-24 hours to allow the spell to keep working and achieve its maximum effect.
