The Capricorn Full Moon was exact on June 24 at 11:40am PDT.
This marks the end of Solstice Portal and first half of the year. It is thus a time of great release… as from here we enter the waning half of the year (northern hemisphere). It is potent Full Moon to release outdated beliefs, patterns and structures held within your DNA, blood and bones as Venus resides at the Root Chakra.
This powerful Full Moon glow also amplifies your capacity to experience joy, pleasure and love in your body as sacred medicine. You are being invited now to do what makes you feel good without shame or guilt. The moon's energy supports you to shed self-imposed limitations and unleash your inner wild self! It's time to celebrate! The earthy power of Capricorn magnetizes your creative passion and welcomes you to delight in the pleasures of all your senses!
This Capricorn Moon portal reflects to us the need to make important choices in our lives in order to bring deep dreams and desires forward (for the benefit of our own lives, and for the planet). If you have been on the fence about something, this moon can bring clarity. Your body holds the wisdom and guidance for all your answers. Listen within and move in the direction that feels good in your heart, wombspace and intuition. Remember, the universe always rewards you for trusting your gut!
(This Moon is also known as the Honey Moon, Mead Moon, Mermaid Moon and the Full Rose Moon)

Ritual Suggestions
Sacred Desires & Sacred Release Journaling: & Embodiment: What sacred desires of yours are being illuminated? What opens up pleasure, passion and joy in your life? What is standing between you and and that (patterns, thought forms, behaviors, limiting beliefs beliefs)? Burn this paper now for sacred release in a fire or with candles outside in the full moon light. You can Dance / speak / move ! After this and you feel more space within you, write down and speak aloud to the moon how you now choose to commit and devote yourself to your dreams. How can you take action to receive support? And can you and trust in the divine timing of your dreams?
Honey Medicine: Eat a spoonful of honey in the moonlight, taste the sweetness of all of your life's blessings and recent accomplishments while feeling into trust, that all be provided for, for your life's dreams.
Passionate Heart: How does your heart want to be expressed/nurtured at this time? What would feel inspiring and delicious right now? Dance, yoga, cooking, sex? What can bring you out of your mind and into your body? Do that! And try it in the moonlight! When done with the intention, this celebration supports the magnification of your dreams.
Elemental Nourishment: Capricorn Moon is an ideal time for you to get in the Natural World and the Elements of Earth. Visit your favorite tree, park, river, ocean or lake etc... Let the wild and sacred medicine of nature seep into your body and your breath. Let the mind go and rest into Earth and practice the art of spaciousness by simply Being.
Remember: Put out your gem stones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal and activation. Place an apple and glass of water in the moonlight and have it for a 'Moon Wisdom' breakfast the next morning.
Commune: Gather in an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now can be a powerful time to be with the energy of the collective.
Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this wondrous and magical time.
Wild Moon Love, Achintya
