When I was a little girl, the moon always fascinated me. I remember looking up at it and feeling a deep connection to something ancient and powerful, something that pulled at me in ways I couldn’t yet understand. That same connection to the moon has been a guiding force in my life ever since. Now, as I grow older and work to revive the ancestral knowledge that once guided our ancestors, I find myself returning to the moon for wisdom, for grounding, and for living in harmony with the natural world.
So I created a Full Moon Journal and Reflection Workbook. Let me tell you about it.
This workbook is born out of that deep connection—my lifelong relationship with the moon and the cycles that govern not just the skies but our very existence. For centuries, our ancestors lived by the phases of the moon. They planted their gardens in rhythm with its cycles, relying on the moon’s light and gravitational pull to guide their actions. Whether it was the waxing crescent signaling the perfect time for planting or the Full Moon providing the optimal moment for harvest, these lunar rhythms were an intrinsic part of everyday life.
As I’ve delved deeper into ancestral knowledge and explored how different cultures aligned themselves with the moon, I’ve discovered just how universal this practice was. The ancient Egyptians, for instance, used the moon to determine the timing of religious festivals and agricultural activities. Native American tribes named the moons based on seasonal changes and natural events, from the Wolf Moon in January to the Harvest Moon in September. And even today, many cultures, from the Hindu to the Chinese, observe festivals and rituals based on the lunar calendar.
The moon’s influence doesn’t stop with ancient agriculture or myth—its gravitational pull controls the tides, a powerful reminder of the moon’s connection to the Earth’s rhythms. It’s a force that moves oceans and lakes, that governs the rise and fall of waters, just as it governs the ebb and flow of energy within us. For me, the Full Moon is especially significant. It represents a time of clarity, when the light shines brightest, revealing truths hidden deep within us. It’s a time for reflection, for release, and for embracing the fullness of who we are.
This is where the Full Moon Journal and Reflection Workbook comes in.
It’s not just a workbook—it’s a tool for anyone looking to live in closer alignment with the seasons and with the natural world. It’s an invitation to slow down, to reflect, and to tune into the subtle yet powerful energy of the lunar cycle. Whether you’re new to lunar rituals or have been following the phases of the moon for years, this journal serves as a gentle companion on your journey.
What I love most about the Full Moon is how it holds space for deep reflection and renewal. Each month, when the moon is at its fullest, we are given a beautiful opportunity to let go of what no longer serves us. Think about it: just as the moon completes its cycle and begins to wane, we too can release what weighs us down. It’s a time to reflect on the intentions we’ve set earlier in the lunar cycle and to manifest the personal growth we’ve been nurturing. By aligning ourselves with these phases, especially the Full Moon, we tap into a universal flow that unlocks clarity, healing, and personal empowerment.
The workbook has been lovingly crafted to guide you through each of the twelve full moons of the year. From reflective journal prompts to personalized rituals, the workbook is filled with exercises designed to help you harness the Full Moon’s energy. For those who are just beginning to explore lunar practices, this workbook provides a simple yet profound structure, while for seasoned moon followers, it offers deeper layers of introspection and spiritual growth. It’s a space for you to engage in meaningful rituals, to journal your thoughts and emotions, and to gain clarity on your personal journey.
One of my favorite aspects of this journal is the way it weaves together rituals, reflections, and practical exercises. There’s a whole section dedicated to full moon rituals —like moonlit release ceremonies or crystal charging practices—that are aligned with the lunar energies. The journal also includes tarot spreads designed to offer deeper insights into your life’s journey, helping you uncover truths that might be hiding in plain sight. Each month’s workbook section is like a mini-ritual in itself, guiding you through the process of connecting with the Full Moon and its unique energies.
Another beautiful addition to the workbook is the seasonal recipes, inspired by the energy of the Full Moon. These recipes are not just about feeding your body—they’re about grounding yourself in the present moment, connecting with the natural elements, and nurturing your spirit. Each recipe aligns with the time of year and the Full Moon’s symbolism, offering a delicious way to celebrate your lunar practice. From warming root vegetable soups during the cold winter months to fresh spring salads that symbolize rebirth, these recipes were created to bring the moon’s energy into your kitchen and your life.
But the best part of this workbook is that it encourages you to trust your intuition. The suggestions and prompts are here to inspire, not to dictate. You are free to adapt these practices in a way that feels right for you. After all, the moon’s wisdom is fluid, just like its light, and no two spiritual journeys are the same. By using this journal, you are invited to deepen your connection not just with the moon but with your own inner wisdom.

It’s a sacred space for reflection, for growth, and for embracing the fullness of who we are.
As you embark on this journey with the Full Moon, may you find the clarity, healing, and personal growth you’ve been searching for.
