SAGITTARIUS FULL MOON CEREMONY: Divine Insight
Excerpt from The Book of Ceremonies
This ceremony uses the art of divination with an oracle or tarot deck alongside a Full Moon shower to wash away unwanted energy. This ceremony will powerfully close out anything that prevents you from living purposefully. You can also do this ceremony at the end of a year to seal the year’s lessons, when you’re finalizing a business deal, or finding completion in a relationship. When we mindfully work to bring closure to any aspect of our life, we simultaneously prepare sacred space for something new to richly grow.
We offer ideas for ceremonies based on what we like to do, but the beauty of creating your own ceremony is that you get to intuitively make the rules. There is no right or wrong. Your motive, intentions, and humble connection to Spirit is what matters most.
Step One: Selecting Tools
Set up a Full Moon wishing area in a quiet space without distractions. Ideally you can do this outdoors, but a private space inside works too.
Incorporating all of the elements:
We suggest using one or more items of your choice from each element when designing your ceremony—you can use as many or as few as you like.
SAGITTARIUS FIRE items: Candles + Smoke
- Royal blue or purple candles – wisdom
- Luxurious and enriching scented candles, herbal bundles, or incense:
- Sage – clearing
- Peppermint – focus
- Lavender – peace
SAGITTARIUS EARTH items: Crystals + Stones
- Lepidolite – descriptions
- Peacock Ore – alignment
- Fire Agate – passion
SAGITTARIUS AIR items: Intentions + Mantras
- Any personal wishes you want to make in the areas Sagittarius governs + the High Vibe Aspects of Sagittarius
- Sagittarius Full Moon Intention
- Sagittarius Full Moon Healing Invocation
SAGITTARIUS WATER items: Essential Oils + Flower Essences
- Tea Tree – descriptions
- Lavender – peace
- Eucalyptus – trust
JOURNAL – Any notebook or piece of paper will work to write your intentions and responses to the journal prompts.
Step Two: Conscious Connection
Find a comfortable place to sit. Open the essential oil(s), and deeply breathe them in to center and ground yourself. Imagine that you have roots in your feet that are shooting down to the center of the Earth. Visualize a beautiful, pure, smoky quartz crystal at the Earth’s core. Envision your roots wrapping around that crystal and simultaneously offering and receiving the energy and infinite intelligence of the crystal that represents the Living Core Knowledge of the Earth.
Create some fire with your breath by simply breathing in and out in rapid intervals—with your mouth open in an “o” shape. Imagine that you are giving Fire to the Earth with each exhale and purifying your body, mind and spirit with the Fire you draw back up from the Earth. After twelve breath cycles:
Say: The flame of divine intelligence is ignited within me.
When you are ready, light the candle. Leave it burning for the next steps.
Step Three: Creating Magic
Shuffle the card deck several times, then cut the deck in half. Place it in front of you, both sides facing down. Place crystals on or around the deck.
Say: This deck is clear. And so it is.
Step Four: Fire gazing
Gaze into the flame of the candle. Breathe in and out of your nose for three cycles. Shuffle the deck again. As you shuffle,
Say: Show me what needs to come to a close in this Sagittarius Full Moon energy.
If this is a personal deck that you are familiar with, you can create any spread you like. If you are new to playing with oracle decks, we suggest a simple three-card spread that indicates: what happened in the past, what is happening now, what will happen in the future if nothing else changes.
Step Five: Divination
Write any insights and wisdom you received from the card reading. Review the Sagittarius Full Moon intention and suggested writing prompts. Get clear on what cycle is ending for you personally. Get curious about the relationship between your personal cycles and the universal cycles. Are there any similarities between the cycles in the world and your personal cycles?
Settle into a space where you can write up to ten intentions. We suggest writing intentions at the time the Full Moon is exact or within a few hours following.
Sample Wishes for the Full Moon in Sagittarius:
– I easily overcome procrastination; I have the energy, decisions, and drive to propel my life forward.
– I no longer overcommit myself; I retain my life force energy for myself and most important project.s
– I look forward to my graduation from the Master’s program in health next year.
Sagittarius Full Moon Intention:
I am willing to let go of unnecessary excess and overcompensation to create space for pure motivation, consistency, and whole-hearted effort. My heart is joyful.
Sagittarius Full Moon Healing Invocation:
I evoke the balance of sophistication and playfulness in order to find meaning and substance.
Step Six: Cleansing and Clearing
Take a purifying shower to rinse off. After showering, scrub your body from head to toe with epsom or Himalayan sea salt.
Say: I am cleansing and clearing out all lower vibrational energies that do not serve my highest good. Any thoughts, feelings, or energy that is not mine are offered back to the Earth to be transmuted into pure, positive light. All aspects of me are here now. I am pure, healthy, and vibrant.
Step Seven: Grounding
Once you have toweled off, use your essential oil by dabbing them behind your neck and ears, along your spine and on the soles of your feet. Stand still like a mountain. Breathe.
Repeat the imagination exercise from the beginning (while standing), imagining that roots are shooting down into the ground. Breathe in and out imagining the breath of fire as you are one with the Earth. Wrap your roots around the Earth’s wise central crystal.
Step Eight: Activate Intentions
Once you find a sense of completion, fold the paper with your intentions on it and hide them in a secret place for three nights. On the third day, read your intentions out loud, burn them carefully over your kitchen sink so the ashes land in a bowl. Then pour water over the ashes. Offer the watery ashes to any healthy plant that is growing in or near your home.
Step Nine: Closing Sacred Space
After the ceremony is complete, bring your palms together in front of your heart or your forehead (third eye). Close your eyes and take three breaths, breathing in and out through your nose.
Visualize a channel of white liquid light flowing through the crown of your head, down through your spine, and then down into the Earth to clear your physical, emotional, and spiritual body. Visualize this light becoming fluorescent in cleansing your DNA and the cells of your body, and then shining it’s unique rays out from your heart into the world.
Say: I honor myself, this sacred space, and the divine intelligence guiding my life. I trust my Higher Power to overlight my intentions and to align my heart with the highest good of the collective. This ceremony is whole and complete. I give thanks, it is done, and so it is. Namaste.
With hands in prayer, bow to your inner divinity’s own sacred heart, honoring your highest self. Remember God with gratitude.

An excerpt from The Book of Ceremonies:
When the New Moon falls in the Water sign of Cancer, you can expect emotional intelligence to reign supreme. Cancer is the Moon’s home sign, and Luna is quite comfortable here. You may feel like nesting and finding comfort in home-cooked meals, keeping the home fires burning. If you notice controlling behaviors and obsessive-compulsive patterns, that’s part of the bad behaviors of this Moon sign— consider where you can let someone off the hook. This is the perfect Moon to initiate a new project for your home, conduct a house blessing, or change your address numerology. This is the Moon of the Mother archetype as well as the Intuitive Counselor. There is a yearning to nurture and be nurtured. It’s time to bang the drum of self-care and healthy relationships.
CANCER NEW MOON CEREMONY: Home Sweet Home
This ceremony teaches you how to use address numerology to shift the vibe of your home or work environment. This is a powerful way to align the energies of your space with your goals and dreams, using number codes to support the manifestation of intentions. The Cancer New Moon is ideal timing for this ceremony, but you can do it on any New Moon, at the beginning of the new year, on the first of the month, and for moving into a new home.
Step One: Selecting Tools
Set up a New Moon wishing area in a quiet space without distractions. Ideally you can do this outdoors, but a private space inside works too.
Incorporating all of the elements:
We suggest using one or more items of your choice from each element when designing your ceremony—you can use as many or as few as you like.
CANCER FIRE items: Candles + Smoke
- Candles (white or off-white) – calming
- Natural scented candles, herbal bundles, or incense:
- Cedar incense – connection
- Sage – clearing
CANCER EARTH items: Crystals + Stones
- Rose Quartz – unconditional love
- Rhodonite – compassion
- Moonstone – intuition
- Pink or Watermelon Tourmaline – emotional clarity
CANCER AIR items: Intentions + Mantras
- Any personal wishes you want to make in the areas Cancer governs + the High Vibe Aspects of Cancer
- Cancer New Moon Intention
- Cancer New Moon Healing Invocation
CANCER WATER items: Essential Oils + Flower Essences
- Rosemary – passion
- Fennel – cleansing
- Cinnamon – heart health
- Juniper – healing
JOURNAL – Any notebook or piece of paper will work to write your intentions and responses to the journal prompts.
POST-IT NOTE – Or you may use a small piece of paper that can be taped to your wall.
SAGE WAND – Optional for a house blessing.
Step Two: Determine Your Address Numerology
Address Numerology is the art of using the numbers in your address to understand and shift the feeling you get when you’re in that particular space.
First, determine the current energy in your home by calculating your address numerology.
Add up the numbers of your address, then reduce it all to a single digit.
Example: 2705 Canyon Drive
Add or sum up the numbers:
2 + 7 + 0 + 5 = 14
Reduce it: 1 + 4 = 5
For this address, the vibration is a 5.
Step Three: Feeling at Home
Next, you will need to determine what energy you’re wanting to feel in your home life. This is no small thing—it requires discernment of your goals and desires.
Here is a quick review of the vibes behind each number:
1 = Individuality
2 = Partnership
3 = Creativity
4 = Process and analysis
5 = Adventure
6 = Nurturing
7 = Wisdom seeking
8 = Value and abundance
9 = Integrity
Step Four: Easy Math
Once you’ve determined what number you want “more” of in your home, take the vibe number of your current address and figure out what number you would need to add to it so that the sum would reduce down or sum up to the number you want. Let’s continue with the following example.
Say for instance your current address vibration is a 5 (adventure) and you want your address to have the vibe of a 2 (partnership).
So, what do you add to 5 to equal 2?
No, this isn’t a trick question.
The answer is 6 (It’s a base 9 system! For non-math people, a clock is a base 12 system that you use every day.)
5 + 6 = 11
1 + 1 = 2
Let’s do one more example with your address as a 5.
Perhaps you want your address to be a 9 (integrity).
What do you add to 5 to equal 9?
The answer is 4.
5 + 4 = 9
Step Five: Meditate
Light a candle. Dab a few drops of essential oil(s) on your left index finger. Rub this on the back of your neck, your throat, and the base of your spine. This will activate the root (home, safety, security) and throat (clear communication) chakras.
Breathe in for three seconds.
Hold your breath for three seconds.
Breathe out for three seconds.
Hold your breath for three seconds.
Repeat this three times.
Say: It is my intention that this home will embody the essence and highest vibrations of the number __________. (Now state some of the energies and trait words associated with that number that you want to call into your home to support your goals, dreams, and wishes at this time.)
Step Six: Set Intentions
Pull inspiration and insights from the properties of Cancer (as listed above in the areas Cancer governs + the High Vibe Aspects of Cancer) to write up to ten intentions in your journal. This is also an ideal time to write the New Moon Intention and the Healing Invocation. Reminder: the most potent time for wish-making is within eight hours of the New Moon.
Sample Wishes for the New Moon in Cancer
– I easily allow myself to feel nurtured by others.
– I’m comfortable in my home, and in my own skin.
– I embrace a total healing in the area of chest and lungs.
Cancer New Moon Intention
I openly discover parts of myself that are genuine, kind, and compassionate and find opportunities to unconditionally share them with others. I am courageously open, honest, and true.
Cancer New Moon Healing Invocation
I invoke sacred healing space for the processes of my body and the optimal biological and physiological function of my digestive system. I breathe expansively into my chest, expanding my ribcage and filling my lungs with rich, healthy oxygen. Healing flows to and through me.
Invitation: Write one strong intention for your home.
Step Seven: Post-it Note
As calculated above (for example), you wanted to add a 6 to your 5 (adventure)-address to bring more vibes of 2 (partnership) into your home. All you need to do is get a post-it note and write the number 6 on it.
Note: Do not simply write the number that you’re wanting more of (in this instance, the number 2 for partnership). You will unintentionally affect the numerology in a completely different way than you are intending to change. Instead, be sure you write the number that actually changes the energy of your home to the energy of partnership, which in this instance is the number 6.
Write your intention for your home, or your favorite New Moon wish, on the backside of the post-it note. Write the number needed to add to your current number on the front side, then stick it to the inside of the doorframe of your front door within the first eight hours of the New Moon in Cancer. This is the most potent portal of the year to change the way your home feels.
Yes, that’s all you have to do! Trust us, it works. The energy field of your home is now changing. Give it a week or two (sometimes it can be sooner) and you will begin to notice a difference in the energy of your home. Put your intentions to work and trust the process. Prepare to be amazed.
Note: If you’re interested in learning more about the basics of numerology and address numerology, check out our sister book in this series: Numerology For Your Home, by Amanda Rieger Green, MPH.
*Option: Sage your house. After you place the post-it on the door, you can sage the house and say a blessing. See our home blessing ceremony (found on page xxx) for invocations to bless the new energy of your home.
Step Seven: Closing Sacred Space
After the ceremony is complete, bring your palms together in front of your heart or your forehead (third eye). Close your eyes and take three breaths, breathing in and out through your nose.
Visualize a channel of white liquid light flowing through the crown of your head, down through your spine, and then down into the Earth to clear your physical, emotional, and spiritual body. Visualize this light becoming fluorescent in cleansing your DNA and the cells of your body, and then shining it’s unique rays out from your heart into the world.
Say: I honor myself, this sacred space, and the divine intelligence guiding my life. I trust my Higher Power to overlight my intentions and to align my heart with the highest good of the collective. This ceremony is whole and complete. I give thanks, it is done, and so it is. Namaste.
With hands in prayer, bow to the inner divinity of your own sacred heart, honoring your highest self. Remember God with gratitude.
