A peak under the sky

What does the full moon mean?

The full moon is the moment when Sun and Moon stand opposite each other relative to Earth — your Sun-driven daytime life and Moon-driven emotional life face each other in a mirror. What you’ve quietly grown since the new moon now stands in full light. Being seen. Culmination. Release the old to make room for what comes next.

Family-friendly full-moon rituals

1. Letter burning (symbolic) — write one thing you want to release, then (safely) burn or shred the paper.
2. Evening walk — go outside with family to look at the moon. Quietly name what you remember from this cycle, and give thanks.
3. Water ritual — leave water in the window under moonlight, use it in the morning for plants or to wash your face.
4. Gratitude dinner — each person at the table names one thing they’re grateful for from this month.
