As a Virgo, this Full Moon calls to me with greater urgency. Can you hear Her as well? I hear a clock's tick; precise, Virgoan. I hear Her call to be of service, to heal, guide, mentor ~ all Virgoan qualities. Plus, let's not forget Her quirk of humour, like a glint of sun in the eye signaling fairy dust. In a Virgo time, we tidy up, we re-purpose, we organize, we de-clutter.
In a Full Moon Time, we acknowledge all that we've accomplished since the New Moon when we set our intentions for the month ahead.
Virgo is not a flashy sign, so do take advantage of this energy to make a plan and a list.
List 1: Your New Moon intentions.
List 2: All that you've accomplished since the last New Moon.
List 3: What you must release beginning Mar. 20 at the Waning Moon to make way for the upcoming New Moon.
List 4: Spring Intention List with plans for the entire year. *More about how to make this powerful in a special SPRING email.
Full Moon Lefty Oracle of the Month Card: Song
Song from the Lefty Oracle Deck by Kathy Crabbe (Full Moon in Virgo altar)
Song's Mantra: I contemplate.
Affirmation: I sing a song of joy.
Element: Earth
Song
I call to me a flower,
this poem,
this life,
this magic,
where gentleness and god/dess preside.
I pluck a song
of forgetfulness
and gently,
so gently,
move on.
When this card appears in a reading it's time to kick back and enjoy life for a while. Relax. Sing. Play. Chill. What restores peace to your soul? Do it. If you can't find peace then find quiet. Give yourself permissions to let your hair down, kick off your shoes and be yourself.
In my own life I see grounding and peace in nature, in painting and in meditationl. These feed me, so I make sure to include at least one of them in my day and hopefully all three.
