How long does the Full Moon last?
While the Full Moon has a specific date and time, its powers are said to extend over several days. Thus, its effects were felt two or three days before and two or three days after. While from an astronomical perspective, the Full Moon simply indicates the moment when the entire star is illuminated by the Sun (hence its round and complete shape), for witches and astrology enthusiasts, this lunar phase is the moment when the Moon’s powers are most intensely felt. Hence the fact that rituals and celebrations take place on Full Moon nights.
What are the powers of the Full Moon?
The Full Moon is a magical night; it is the moment when the Moon’s energies culminate. During this lunar phase, everything becomes clearer, everything becomes achievable, more intense, and more brilliant. According to some beliefs, during a Full Moon, the veil separating our world (the tangible world) from the invisible world becomes thinner and disappears. Cosmic energies are therefore intensified, allowing everyone to practice magic. For witches, the Full Moon invites us to celebrate life. And, since the Moon is the star that governs our emotions, our sensitivity is heightened. In all its radiance, the Full Moon is a time of forgiveness. It’s the moment when we free ourselves from negative energies and everything we don’t want to carry around or no longer want to carry around. Even more, it’s a time to become aware of our own power. We release our emotions, we thank the Moon for its help, for its strength. The Full Moon therefore coincides with the moment when our dearest wishes come true.
