March Full Moon.

Full moons tend to bring feedback from the universe to provide the clarity we need to move forward towards our goals and dreams. Unlike a new moon, which marks a time for initiation, full moons are all about reflection. Under a full moon, it’s almost as if nothing can hide—even the difficult things you’ve been avoiding. Full moons are considered a time of culmination and release, encouraging us to let go of burdens.

Each full moon is said to take on the flavor of the sign it falls in. March’s full moon — nicknamed the Worm Moon, referring to the earthworms that emerge in spring — falls in the earth sign of Virgo, known for its penchant for organization, details and perfectionism. You will notice more of an emphasis on efficiency and attention to detail — which are essential parts of turning your dreams into a reality. Your dream isn’t far-fetched, it just may need a more concise plan. The possibilities of what you can manifest are endless, but they must be paired with a strong, reliable work ethic. Now it’s the time for action.

This lunation is also a chance to revamp your routine, to be productive and break free from what's weighing you down. The easiest place to start is in your closet! A refreshed wardrobe and a goodwill run will give you a boost to start the spring cleaning in other parts of your life.

With the full moon in Virgo, we’re given the chance to take a deep look at the emotional energy dedicated to our work, our health, and our daily routines and habits. This feels even more potent as the world starts to come alive again. It’s time for us to take a hard look at our daily routines and observe what’s helping or hindering us from our goals. Maybe some of our lockdown / working from home habits aren’t serving us anymore.

The full moon energy will urge you to break free from old stuff in life that’s dragging you down and focus on being the most authentic version of yourself. That includes everything from nourishing your body in a way that feels good to how you approach creating fulfilling relationships. Like, if you feel like you’re not staying true to you while including someone else in your life, this is never going to work.

Self-inquiry through meditation and journalling:

I invite you to take a comfortable seat with a straight spine. Close your eyes…

• Take a deep inhale and exhale fully a few times.

• Connect to your breath — observe it, no need to fix it; breathing in, breathing out.

• If a thought or emotion comes, invite it in. Don’t engage with it, don’t judge it either. Always go back to your anchor — your breath.

• Once you feel grounded, open your eyes and from this place of sight, grab a pen and start journalling.

The full moon is asking that you pair your optimism with efficiency, so start by writing out a list of things you may need to do in order to accomplish your aspiration.

• Do you have the necessary resources to make your dreams a reality?

• If not, how can you go about obtaining them? What do you have to learn?

Consider overhauling systems that no longer serve you.

• How can you honor your progress and release habits and plans that no longer serve you?

• Are you applying an appropriate amount of pressure on yourself and those around?

• How can you adjust your daily routines to accommodate the changes in the world while still honoring your own needs? 

Finally, when in Virgo, the moon pushes us towards a desire to serve others, often in ways that reflect how we wish we were cared for. Pay attention to the love you give to and receive from those closest to you.

• Is it possible that you or your loved ones are telepathically communicating an unmet need? If so, try to figure out what it is and how to meet it.

• Show yourself and others compassion, and accept that there is no need to rush an answer to that “How are you?”.

When you’re done, read through what you wrote — with no judging. Take the insights you need at this time.

Reflecting on these questions are doubly important for everyone as we approach the spring equinox on March 20. The spring equinox marks not only the official start to spring but also the start of a new astrological year. This full moon in Virgo provides the perfect opportunity for some spring cleaning before the sun begins to shine full time again. It’s time to release what’s holding you back from your dreams. Take a cleansing bath, smudge your space, and burn a white candle with the intention to start the new year fresh. ✨

Namaste.
