The full moon has long had an aura of mystery and magic about it. It is tied to the ebbs and flows of the tide, as well as the cycle of women’s bodies....the Waxing moon as the Maiden/Warrior (aka new moon, no moon which grows to the full moon), the Full moon as the Mother, and the Waning Moon as the Crone (this is the time when the moon fades away - from full moon to the new moon, no moon). Full moon mysteries cross and are found in every culture and continent, and not to mention, celebrations and rituals involving the full moon go back beyond recorded time. Wiccan/Pagan people still celebrate the moon.
In many cultures, the full moons each month are named, and the names often correspond to important events. On May 17, we see the rising of the Scorpio Moon. When the moon is in Scorpio, this is the time to work spells/prayers or rituals involving sexual matters, psychic growth, power, and transformation. Healing rituals for the sexual and reproductive organs, and spells for fertility are also appropriate.
This full moon is also an opportune time of the month for purging things that are creating a barrier. The light the full moon offers and illuminates those things that are interfering with our spiritual development. Once we have become aware of the things that are blocking us, the easier it is to let go of them. This full moon is ideal for rituals/prayers releasing or purging the things in our lives that no longer serve us, such as addictions to food, drugs, or sex, for relinquishing the pain of a hurtful or ended relationship, and for discharging physical and emotional pain.
