Why the Full Moon Is the Ideal Time for Cleansing

✨ Full Moon Cleansing Ritual with Selenite and Sage

The full moon is a radiant invitation to release, renew, and reconnect with your inner light. When combined with the high-frequency clarity of selenite and the ancient wisdom of sage, this lunar moment becomes a powerful cleansing rite.

The full moon marks the peak of the lunar cycle — a time of heightened energy, spiritual awareness, and illumination. Spiritually, it’s the perfect moment to release emotional burdens, stagnant energy, or old habits.

🔮 How to Perform the Ritual

What You’ll Need:

  • A piece of selenite (wand, slab, or tower)
  • A bundle of sage (white sage or another cleansing herb)
  • A fireproof dish or shell
  • A lighter or matches
  • A glass of water
  • Optional: a journal, full moon water, crystals to charge
  1. Create Sacred Space – Choose a quiet place indoors or under the moonlight. Take a few deep breaths to center yourself.
  2. Light the Sage – Gently light your sage bundle, allowing it to smolder. Waft the smoke around your body and space.
  3. Cleanse Your Space – Move through your space, saying: “I release all that no longer serves. I welcome light, love, and clarity.”
  4. Activate the Selenite – Hold it over your heart or third eye. Visualize white light flowing through you.
  5. Seal with Water and Gratitude – Anoint yourself with water and offer thanks to the moon and your tools.
  6. Optional: Write and Release – Burn or bury what you've written to symbolically release it.

🌙 A Final Reflection

Cleansing rituals during the full moon are not just about removing what’s heavy — they’re about returning to your essence. Let the full moon remind you that just as she wanes and waxes, so too can you release and begin again.
