No, it’s probably not the reason of your Excel nightmare last night. However, in astrology, the Full Moon poses a surge of energy, loosens creativity, and much more.
Since the urge to dream probably makes up the remaining 30% of our bodies, the Full Moon is just a sign of imagination at its peak, of uncontrolled creativity. That’s why it’s so usual in horoscopes, especially lunar horoscopes. Here’s an explanation.
When is the Full Moon?
The lunar cycle lasts about 28 days. During this time, the moon will appear to disappear in the sky before gradually growing into the shape of a quarter, crescent, and finally full circle. To determine the dates of this unusual occurrence, check a lunar calendar. They are typically represented by a white circle. After this lunar phase has gone, the moon will gradually fade and disappear. This means the moon cycle has concluded and a new one is about to begin.
How long does the full moon last?
Although the Full Moon has a set day and hour, its powers are thought to last several days. As a result, its effects were felt two to three days before and two to three days after. While from an astronomical standpoint, the Full Moon simply represents the moment when the Sun illuminates the entire celestial body (hence its round and complete shape), witches and astrology enthusiasts believe that this lunar phase is when the Moon’s powers are strongest. Consequently, ceremonies and festivities frequently take place on Full Moon nights.
What are the powers of the Full Moon?
Some believe that during the Full Moon, the veil between our world (the tangible world) and the invisible world thins and dissolves. Cosmic energies intensify, allowing anyone to practice magic. For witches, the Full Moon is an invitation to celebrate life. Furthermore, now is the time to become aware of our own power. We let go of our feelings, praising the Moon for her support and power. As a result, the Full Moon corresponds with the fulfillment of our deepest desires.
However, the Full Moon’s effects are not always beneficial. This moon phase is known for producing insomnia and is considered to have the ability to awaken feelings we have been avoiding. Be wary of episodes of tension, worry, or anger. On these nights, the Moon does not disregard any sensitivity. For some people, the Full Moon represents a watershed time when everything gets so powerful that it is difficult to remain calm.
How to harness the energy of the Full Moon?
To work with the energy of the night star, focus on the Full Moon’s location. It will have varying affects depending on its astrological sign. It’s similar to how the astrological seasons work: each moon has its own name and thus its own energy.

What ritual should you perform during the Full Moon?
As already explained, the Full Moon is the perfect time to act rituals and, therefore, to practice magic. We take advantage of its positive vibrations to restore our stones, burn sage, and eliminate negativity. It is customary to get ready with lunar water, read cards, make a list of gratitude to the Moon, your loved ones, yourself, the goddesses you love… The choice is yours.
