333
lunar eclipse notes
Another blood moon is expected this Tuesday. Yes, the 3rd installment of lunar eclipses in Virgo lands on 3/3, at 3:33AM… delusions activate!
In addition, my life numbers are 33/3, so I’ll be extra delusional on this full moon when it comes to self-care, manifesting, and dreaming big ;) BUT as full moons go, the theme is release; especially centering old habits, stale relationships/family ties, & self-sabotaging habits.
This lunation asks you to ditch perfectionism and face your inner critic head-on (tell it to GTFO!).
This being the 3rd installment of an ongoing eclipse season during the Pisces/Virgo eclipse season, expect acceleration of major changes. If you haven’t done shadow work or focused on grounding, this shake-up can feel turbulent, but if you’re prepared, things should go smoothly. Smooth” being taken with a grain of salt, considering mercury is in retrograde (tech/communication delays).
Rituals for this lunation:
declutter your life (physically or figuratively)
drop perfectionism and just have fun. (this one is huge for me as a creator) try a messy sketch, or a silly doodle. the idea is to just be and enjoy yourself.
take a nature walk
talk to the moon
be silly/less serious
REST
keep it simple, cozy and comfy.
If you have pets, hold them close for all the cuddles.
pay attention to what’s shifting in your personal life
shadow work journaling.
Dos & Don’ts:
don’t take yourself too seriously
don’t try to make too much sense of the emotions that arise within these next few days
but do allow yourself to feel freely <3
don’t make major decisions until after 3/3 (probably even 3/4 tbh).
do give yourself grace and extra time to get places/get tasks done
do double/triple check your work.
do relax and lay low
don’t say yes, when you really mean no
DO protect your energy!
Journal Prompts:
doodle/color freely for 5 minutes
Write down 3 things in your life that are going well right now (gratitude!)
Note what is making you feel drained: how can you alter or fully release that habit?
Where in your life have you been over-committing? Simplify, set clear boundaries, and step away from dynamics that aren’t yours to manage.
Use this Virgo energy to be selective with your time & attention.
I know I will be.
As for me…
I’ve been weighing options in my personal and creative life for sure. And some heavy topics are on the table, but the Universe knows I’m strong enough to do the heavy lifting. I’ll be waiting and taking my time with these subjects, though, and seeing how the dust settles around this eclipse.
My time and energy are the priority!
I won’t be doing any book events this month. Instead, I am resting, focusing on writing and nurturing my personal life. You can still support this author by subscribing to this blog, and purchasing my books here.
some goals for me personally:
-finalizing this draft for book two
-sharing information on this super fun short story I wrote
-full moon bubble bath
-preparing my mind & spirit for the spring solstice
-trusting the Universe to guide me
-homecooked, comforting meals
What’s your favorite full moon ritual?
