October's Super Full Moon - Magic of Rituals, Manifestation and Affirmations

The Super Full Moon of October is a highly charged Moon that keeps the potential to transform us on many different levels, in many different ways.

Moon is in the gravitational field of the Earth. And therefore, La Luna deeply affects us, especially on the illuminating Full Moon nights. We all are aware of the phases of the Moon. When the Moon is at its fullest, it is called a Full Moon. The Full Moon night of October on the 16th -17th (depending upon which part of the World you are in!) is one of the most potent in nature as it is said that the divine nectar showers on this auspicious night. The energy is so powerful and potent that it can heal just about anything and anyone. The Full Moon energy is a purifying one and one of the best to heal and recharge. In India, it is called "Sharad Poornima" when the moon showers nectar "amrut varsha" on this divine night. In the Western parts of the World, October's Super Moon is known as "Hunter's Moon" which supports harvest and hunting in preparation of the upcoming cold winter weather.

One can harness the power of the Moon through various activities and rituals performed during the time. Moon is connected with fertility and so it is one of the best time-periods to grow seeds of anything you want to bring to fruition. It can be a plant or a project. You can start sowing seeds in your garden. You can start creative innovative ways to develop your project. You can set intention to manifest your desires in life. You can develop a vision-board.

It is also important to note that Full-Moon energy can be very overwhelming for many of us so it is advised to stay as grounded as possible. Keep your vata-pitta-kapha in balance. Eat light. Have enough water. Do not do anything in excess. Avoid over-doing anything and steadily progress with the day. Traditionally, many people have found diseases like epilepsy triggering at this point. Full Moon can potentially trigger anything that is unhealed within us and that is why Full Moon has been connected wit releasing and purging so that one can be cleansed, purified and finally healed in the potent healing energy of the Full Moon.

Full Moon Manifestation

Sit down comfortably. Do breathing exercise for a few minutes. Make yourself grounded. Now visualise everything that you wish to manifest in your life in the near future.

Now, take a piece of paper. Start with writing gratitude to the Moon. Now, write down everything that you wish to manifest in your life. Keep this paper under your pillow or under the moon-light while you sleep. Plant this paper the following day or you can keep it somewhere as per your convenience.

On another piece of paper, or in your diary if you maintain one, set a time-table that you can follow to achieve the things you wish to manifest.
