For magical purposes, the full moon is 3 days: the day before, the day of, and the day after, so tonight is the last night of the Sturgeon Full Moon, a full moon also being attributed to being “super” and “blue.”
This unique alignment offers an opportunity to dive deep into our spiritual practices, aligning with the natural rhythms of both the earth and the cosmos.
The Sturgeon Moon—traditionally named by the Algonquin tribes—arrives during a time of abundance, reflecting the season when sturgeon fish were most readily caught. This moon symbolizes prosperity, growth, and the harvest of our efforts. It invites us to honor the fruits of our labor and to set intentions for continued abundance.
The Super Seasonal Blue Moon—occurring when the third full moon appears in a season with four full moons—adds an extra layer of magic. It’s a rare event that amplifies the moon’s energy, making it an ideal time for manifesting long-term goals, releasing deep-seated blocks, and embracing unexpected opportunities.
Together, these two lunar forces create a powerful moment for transformation. Here’s how you can harness this combined energy in a ritual designed to release, renew, and manifest.
Supply List:
Candle (choose a color that resonates with your intentions: gold, green, white, blue, purple, or silver)
Dried herbs (such as rosemary or sage) for cleansing
A piece of paper and a pen (for writing reflections and intentions)
A bowl of water or saltwater (for cleansing and release)
A piece of fish or shellfish (optional, as a symbolic offering; I actually used a piece of sea shell)
A crystal (such as citrine, green aventurine, or moss agate; I used amethyst for calming the mind, reducing stress, and curbing unhealthy habits)
Matches or a lighter (to light the candle and herbs)
Step 1: Creating Your Sacred Space
Start by setting up a quiet, comfortable space where you can perform your ritual. If possible, do this outside under the moonlight to fully connect with the lunar energy. Begin by lighting a candle, choosing a color that resonates with your intentions:
Gold or Green: Represents abundance, growth, and prosperity, aligning perfectly with the Sturgeon Moon’s energy.
White: Symbolizes purity, clarity, and protection, ideal for cleansing and starting anew.
Blue: Enhances communication, calm, and emotional healing, which can be particularly powerful under a blue moon.
Purple: Associated with spiritual growth, intuition, and transformation, making it a great choice for connecting with the higher vibrations of the Super Seasonal Blue Moon.
Silver: Reflects the moon’s own energy, amplifying its light and connecting you to the divine feminine.
After lighting your candle, burn some dried herbs like rosemary or sage to cleanse your space. As you prepare, take a moment to acknowledge the dual energies of the Sturgeon Moon and the Super Seasonal Blue Moon. Recognize this as a unique opportunity to work with both earthly and cosmic forces to bring your intentions to life.
Step 2: Grounding and Reflection
Sit comfortably and close your eyes, taking several deep breaths to ground yourself. Visualize roots extending from your body into the earth, drawing up the ancient wisdom of the land.
Reflect on the themes of the Sturgeon Moon—abundance, harvest, and prosperity. What have you accomplished in recent months? What seeds have you planted that are now beginning to bear fruit? On one side of a piece of paper, write down your achievements and the progress you’ve made. Celebrate these victories, however small they may seem.
Next, consider the opportunity presented by the Super Seasonal Blue Moon. This is the time to bring forth long-term goals and aspirations that might seem distant or challenging. On the other side of your paper, write down anything that feels like it’s holding you back—whether it’s fear, doubt, or old habits. Prepare to release these under the powerful light of tonight’s moon.
Step 3: Release and Cleanse
With the supermoon’s amplified energy, this is the perfect time to let go of what no longer serves you. Hold your paper over a bowl of water or saltwater, symbolizing the cleansing energy of the moon. As you tear the paper, visualize the burdens you’ve written down being washed away, leaving you lighter and more open to positive energy.
If you have a piece of fish or shellfish as an offering, this is an ideal time to present it, honoring the Sturgeon Moon and its connection to abundance and the natural cycles of the earth.
Step 4: Setting Intentions for Abundance and Transformation
Now, turn your focus to the future. What do you want to manifest in the coming months? The Sturgeon Moon’s energy supports intentions related to prosperity and growth, while the Super Seasonal Blue Moon encourages bold, ambitious goals.
Write down your intentions on a new piece of paper. Focus on goals that align with both the harvest theme of the Sturgeon Moon and the transformative potential of the Blue Moon. These might be intentions for financial growth, personal development, or even rare opportunities that you’ve been hesitant to pursue.
Step 5: Meditate Under the Moon’s Light
If possible, spend a few moments under the moonlight. Hold a crystal—such as citrine, green aventurine, or moss agate—that resonates with your intentions. As you meditate, imagine the combined energy of the Sturgeon Moon and the Super Seasonal Blue Moon surrounding you, filling you with clarity and strength. Visualize your intentions being amplified by this rare and powerful lunar energy, reaching out into the universe with a force that’s both grounded and cosmic.
Step 6: Gratitude and Closing
End your ritual by expressing gratitude—not only for the usual blessings in your life but also for the rare and powerful opportunities this night brings. Pour the charged water onto the earth, or leave your offering in a natural space, as a final act of honoring both the moon’s energy and the earth’s abundance.
Thank the Sturgeon Moon for its connection to prosperity and the Super Seasonal Blue Moon for its transformative power. Trust that the intentions you’ve set tonight are being carried out into the universe, ready to manifest in ways that align with your highest good.
This special night, where the energies of the Sturgeon Moon and the Super Seasonal Blue Moon combine, is a time for profound transformation and manifestation. By engaging in this ritual, you’re tapping into a unique moment of alignment between the earthly and the cosmic. Embrace the magic of this night, and let it guide you toward the abundance and transformation you seek.
