Now's the time to get yourself together and prepared, because winter is around the corner.
Emotionally and physically clear out your baggage and clutter, to start the winter in clear mind. Make sure you also get those summer health issues dealt with now, before those winter bugs raise their heads, so you are in good health through the winter months.
This full Moon is all about balance and settling down to a slower rhythm, so also spend time preparing your environment.
Look at your goals surrounding your home and those within and if you don’t already have one, perhaps set up a kitchen or hearth altar for cooking up a brew during the winter.
It is a good time for deep reflection and gratitude before manifesting or performing any rituals, and look at yourself spiritually gaining a new insight into your psychic awareness, which should be made a lot easier if you have cleared out your clutter.
Get yourself outside if you can to celebrate this wonderful Moon, or bring the outside in, filling your house with beautiful seasonal flowers, fruits and vegetables. Gather energy by dancing around your garden or kitchen to the music you enjoy, and get your creative head on to give you inspiration during this time.
Make yourself some Moon water to use the kitchen, clean your tools or drop into your bath.
Building your Harvest altars can be fun! Pick up some autumn leaves and decorate them, and add some seasonal fruits or/and a pumpkin (maybe a bit early, but there are some already in the shops). Scatter some grains of wheat, seeds or nuts. Use autumnal colours such as burnt oranges, browns, reds, ambers, green and earthy colours. Adorn your altar with some citrine, peridot, amber or some tiger's eye.
These are just some ideas, it is your altar, so go with what you feel and make it your own and special.
