Full Moon in Sagittarius
By: Sophie Wingert, Holistic Practitioner
WHAT DOES A FULL MOON REPRESENT?
On June 14th, the moon will be completely illuminated by the sun, making her as round and bright as can be. The full moon takes place once the intentions that were set during the new moon phase come into fruition — representing completion, fertility, abundance, and transformation.
The energy this full moon presents is talkative, loud, and even pretentious.
ATTRIBUTES OF SAGITTARIUS
Above all else, a Sagittarius values independence and the ability to do things on their own terms. They are adventure seekers, risk-takers, and have a sharp business mentality.
Sagittarius natives are known for their emotional intelligence and their ability to easily connect with others.
The element of Sagittarius is fire, which is evident in this zodiac’s active and outwardly expressive personality.
WHAT DOES THE FULL MOON IN SAGITTARIUS MEAN?
As the Moon approaches fullness, you may notice that your ability to receive insights is especially heightened. This awareness can provide you with clarity on what might be currently happening in your life.
Those born under this ninth zodiac sign may become weepy and emotional during the Full Moon, but once they regain their vision, they will often plan something tremendous for their future.
The low back, thighs, and hips are the main organs physically affected by this full moon.
WAYS TO CONNECT AND HARNESS THE ENERGY OF THE SAGITTARIUS FULL MOON
1) JOURNAL:
What risks have you taken so far this year (small or large), and what have you learned from them?
Write a rough draft of your personal mission statement.
2) MOVE:
The low back, thighs, and hips are the main organs physically affected by this full moon. Therefore, hip opening work such as hip circles, deep tissue massage, or hip opening yoga practice would be very beneficial. We offer private yoga sessions to harness the energy of the particular season and moon phase.
3) INVEST IN SELF CARE:
The chakra associated with Sagittarius is the sacral chakra. This is what gives the passionate and optimistic energy of the zodiac. Crystals to help activate this energy center include carnelian and citrine. Grab your favorite crystals, light the fireplace or your favorite candles, and allow yourself some time to journal and reflect during this full moon season.
Massage Therapy: Deep tissue massage, specifically, is a type of bodywork aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and connective tissue. By applying pressure to areas that carry chronic tension like the neck, shoulders, lower back tension is released and muscles are able to relax.
During the Full Moon we recommend a Deep Tissue Massage or Thai Body Massage to support Hip Opening and deep relaxation.
4) BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF:
Tonight is probably not the best night for a political debate or a serious relationship talk as you may speak impulsively or say something that you might later regret. Instead, have lighthearted conversation with loved ones or spend a cozy night in with a hot bath and a good book.
At Saffron & Sage we carry a special herbal tea blend for each Full Moon. Freedom is a blend that nourishes and relaxes with chamomile, peppermint, oat straw, red rose petals, lavender. Partake in this lunar blend to help cast full light on that which would otherwise remain unseen, revealing that which is hidden in the shadows and must be released.
