Understanding Full Moon Affirmations

What is a Full Moon Affirmation?

A full moon affirmation is a positive statement that you repeat to yourself during the full moon. It is a way to set intentions, release negative energy, and attract positive energy into your life. Full moon affirmations are often used in conjunction with moon rituals, which can include setting intentions, meditating, and performing other practices to connect with the energy of the moon.

How do Full Moon Affirmations Work?

Full moon affirmations work by tapping into the power of the lunar cycle. The full moon is a time of culmination and illumination, making it an ideal time to release what no longer serves you and attract what you desire. By repeating positive affirmations during the full moon phase, you are sending a clear message to the universe about what you want to manifest in your life. Using affirmations is a way to help program your subconscious mind to look for things that align with your desires.

The Power of Full Moon Affirmations

The power of full moon affirmations lies in their ability to shift your mindset and your vibe. By focusing on positive statements and releasing negative thoughts and emotions, you are raising your vibration and attracting aligned opportunities into your life.

Full moon affirmations can also help you overcome limiting beliefs, fears, and doubts, and tap into your intuition and inner strength.

To make the most of full moon affirmations, it is important to approach them with an open mind and heart, and to trust in the power of the universe to bring you what you need. You can enhance the power of your affirmations by incorporating other practices such as meditation, gratitude, and visualization.

There are many different ways to use affirmations and I always say the best way to use them is the way that feels best to you and also inspires you to actually use and embody them.

Repeating them to yourself in your head anytime you need to refocus

Find a quiet and comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed
Light candles or use other sources of soft, calming light
Play healing frequency music or nature sounds
Use crystals or other grounding objects to help you feel connected to the earth

Setting intentions is a powerful way to bring focus and clarity to your full moon affirmations. Consider the following when setting your intentions:

Be specific and clear about what you want to manifest or release
Use positive affirmations that focus on growth, balance, truth, blessings, compassion, prosperity, mindfulness, self-worth, and other positive qualities
Let go of any self-sabotaging habits or limiting beliefs
