Full Pink Moon
The ritual of spring cleaning is a time when we go through what has accumulated over the winter months and decide what to throw away and what to keep. There is an intention to do a full clearing of clutter to clear any stale energy from our homes.
The things that haven’t been used in a while are noticed and we have the choice on whether it’s time to let them go. This can be a difficult process for some things because they hold sentimental value.
Attachment can cause a great struggle in letting go.
One idea that has always helped me when decluttering is: If you haven’t needed it in a year, chances are you will not need it now. It is liberating to let go of things, especially those with stale or bad energy. Energy shifts when old or unused items are removed. We make room for newness to enter our lives.
Some years are easier to clear clutter than others. Others can be a struggle to find the time to do a deep cleaning. This is a time to recognize any blocks that may arise when it comes to clearing clutter. Allow yourself to take some time to reflect on what the block may be.
Here are a few questions you can ask yourself:
- Do I really like where everything is in my home right now?
- Am I afraid of what may happen if I get rid of something? If so, what am I afraid of?
- Do I welcome change?
- Am I trying to manifest things too quickly and getting impatient with the process?
- What am I attached/holding on to?
If you find yourself wavering on the thin line of attachment remember that growth comes after the release. It is easy to fall into attachment when hard work bears fruit. But, there is always room for growth!
If you are craving growth and feel slight discomfort from waiting or haven’t seen change in a while, harness the powerful energy of the full moon to notice if any of these areas are highlighted.
The full moon is a time when what needs to be let go of is highlighted and draws our attention to it so we can release it.
Start by making a list of where you would like to see growth in your life. Then break your list down into categories and list how you would like to grow in each area
- Relationship
- Career
- Health
- Education/Growth
- Community
- Family
Then, next to each item, list an action you can take to create the change you desire. Notice where you need to let go and clear clutter in each area. This can be a physical object or an emotion.
Clutter is energetic and has a low vibrational energy.
The things that are no longer serving you hold energy where growth is ready to bloom. Clearing out clutter brings new and lovely things. This takes practice, so be gentle with yourself. Letting go is hard. Even though you may not know what is on the horizon, trust that universe hears your deepest desires. Making your list is manifestation in action.
Pink Moon Meditation:
I am ready to let go of what no longer serves me.
I release my grasp on the things I have been holding onto.
I am ready for growth.
I notice the beauty that is taking place.
