Full Moon Dates 2023
In astronomy, a lunar cycle is approximately 29.5 days (28 days sidereal)—the time it takes to go from one new moon to the next new moon. There are 12 lunations in a given calendar year. However, approximately every 2.5 years, there are 13 lunations. So one month will have two full moons; the second full moon is called a blue moon.

What Does the Full Moon Represent Spiritually + Symbolically?
As you know, the moon waxes and wanes through its cycle. The cycle starts with the new moon (day 0), waxes to the full moon (day 14.81), and wanes back to the new moon (day 29.5), completing a full lunation.
Lunar cycles remind us that life is cyclical and continuous. There are phases, seasons, natural progressions, and regressions to everything, giving existence its natural rhythm and flow.
New moons represent new beginnings and fresh starts.

Conversely, full moons symbolize culmination, fruition, and illumination. The moon reaches its peak and receives full power and light from the sun.
Moreover, the full moon’s energy illuminates and enhances your qualities. So, for example, if you are angry, the full moon will exaggerate this quality. Or if you are happy, meditative, or depressed, the full moon will also exaggerate these qualities.
Full moons are a supportive time to tune in, observe your limiting beliefs and moods, and practice affirmations. Additionally, since full moons signify fruition, this is an optimal time to practice gratitude for the current manifestations.
Below are some other rituals you may want to try, along with affirmations.
Full Moon Practice Examples to Add to Your Moon Rituals
- Review and refresh your manifestations
- Journal thoughts and feelings
- Gratitude practice
- Prayers
- Meditation
- Moon bathe
- Visualize your dreams
The best days to harness the full moon’s energy are three days leading up to the full moon and three days after.
What are Affirmations?
Affirmations are phrases or mantras you repeatedly say aloud or write to overcome a limiting belief and practice positive self-talk. They allow you to control and direct your thoughts towards more empowering and positive vibrations.
According to stem cell biologist Dr. Bruce H. Lipton, we spend 95% of our time in our subconscious mind and 5% in our conscious mind. Our subconscious mind stores our programs, memories, habits, and beliefs.
When you practice affirmations, you are essentially reprogramming your subconscious mind. Each time you say the affirmation, your brain fires new neuropathways and rewires. Over time you begin to think, feel, and therefore act differently.

How to Use Full Moon Affirmations
The three most popular and effective ways to practice affirmations:
- Repeating affirmations aloud in the mirror
- Write affirmations in your journal
- Repeating affirmations in your head
Choose 3 to 5 affirmations below and repeat or write them out ten times each. Be sure to feel the energy of the affirmation. Feeling the emotion of the affirmation is an essential part of doing affirmations. The subconscious is connected to your emotional body, so to reprogram the subconscious, you have to associate the affirmation with positive feelings.
Feel free to change the affirmations to suit your situation. Also, try writing your own affirmations. Writing your own affirmations will make it more personal to you.
