Tears of the Moon
FULL MOON RITUAL
Tears of the Moon, Marcella Lobos
For this ritual you need a small bowl with water, sea salt and essential oil.
Find a moment to create your sacred space.
Summon the protection and blessings from the four directions and also from Heaven and Earth.
Listen to nature and the birds or play music that can help you relax.
Light a candle to honor the full moon and offer it some incense or fragrant smoke.
Take a teaspoon of salt and mix it with the water. While stirring, repeat these words:
"Holy waters from the Great Mother
Sublimate my vision and my intention
Sacred waters from the seas Cleanse my fears and my sorrows
Blessed tears of my body
Purify my illnesses and afflictions"
Adapt these words in any way it feels most helpful and authentic.
Then consecrate the water with a few drops of an essential oil (it can be lang ylang, roses, lavender, etc)
Finally, dip your ring and middle fingers in the water and anoint yourself in the third eye, temples, heart, belly and anywhere else your intuition tells you.
Take a moment to feel and contemplate. Pray with your intentions for the days and weeks coming up.
Leave the water under the light of the moon and anoint anyone else who is willing to receive this blessings within the next three days.
Add gentle prayers to your offerings
