The Beaver Full Moon

Full moon Fun Facts!
And maybe not so fun:)

Full Moons can keep you up at night. The lunar energy is believed to be at a high point during the full moon, which can cause us to feel more energized.
You might be more emotional: the moon is the planet that rules our emotions, feelings and vulnerabilities. Making our emotions intense and even tumultuous.
They can make us more social: Humans are hard wired to take advantage of the extra light from  the full moon, which can lead us to be more social.

Prepare to be illuminated: Full moons are known to illuminate our minds! Get ready for information, ideas, and feelings to bubble up to the surface.

They can help us break bad habits. As the moons begins to wane, get smaller, that is our opportunity to let go of things that are no longer serving us!
I love the moon and all her energies and phases. I hope this information helps you navigate what the moon has in store for you!

The most popular name for November’s Full Moon is the Beaver Moon. Named after the diligent beavers who are eagerly completing their lodges and food stores for the cold Winter season ahead. However, beavers stay active all Winter long even when ice covers the water’s surface

November’s Beaver Moon spiritual meaning symbolizes the beaver’s ability to be the architects and creators of their own life. #reclaimyourwild. This is something we can all endeavor to be! Use the Beaver Moon as a final motivating push before Winter to create action and transformation in your life.
Now is a time to finish the goals and intentions that are most important to you before Winter is officially here. Figure out what dams you need to create to stop draining or negative energy from influencing your physical and spiritual wellbeing.

The November 2021 full moon eclipse is taking place in the sensual sign of Taurus, therefore the spiritual meaning is centred around aligning with our values and finding security in times of chaos.
Symbolically, the lunar eclipse highlights the things we need to feel warm, safe and secure in a time of increasing cold and scarcity. Therefore, it will help us to determine what is truly valuable to us and what is no longer worth our energy.

As this moon comes during the peak fall season, with a nod to the ushering in of winter, you can try rituals that offer something to the spirit of fall.  
Try the cornucopia: the quintessential symbol of Thanksgiving. While the special turkey-stuffed holiday may have already passed, it’s still a wonderful contribution to the fall season. The cornucopia, or Horn of Plenty, has an interesting origin story. Legend has it that the Greek character, Amalthea was caring for baby Zeus who is said to have broken off the she-goat’s horn. The horn then supplied unending nourishment to the growing infant. 
The horn is also connected to the Goddess of Harvest, Demeter, and God of Wine, Dionysus. It’s the perfect representation of bounty, fertility, and good times! Take advantage of everything these symbols have to offer by invoking the cornucopia into your Beaver Moon ritual. 

Try filling one with your favorite crystals and host a full moon ritual. We recommend turning to Moonstone, with its feminine vibrations akin to that of the moon. You can also turn to Selenite, connected to everything related to the moon. After the traditional moon-hued stones, we recommend Black Tourmaline to propel negative vibrations that may be hindering better communication between you and your family. After that, Tiger’s Eye can help motivate you to be the busy-bee you’ve always wanted to be! Just like the beaver, you’ll be putting together amazing projects that leave everyone in awe and earn you more income and more respect. 


Here’s an idea:
​Charge your crystals under the full moon

Grab the crystals we recommend above or any gemstone that is calling your name during this time. You’ll want to leave them under the Full Moon’s rays, ideally the day before. You can cleanse a crystal under the moonlight but the day before the full moon can also cleanse your crystals. If you need to cleanse them now, try using a Palo santo for the smoke method so you have fully cleansed crystals in the next step.
After cleansing, program them with your intention. With a clear head and pure heart, think of your intention. Now transfer that powerful energy to the crystal. The energy will work its magic to help supercharge your crystal. You can leave them outside to charge, ideally in a crystal grid or altar. But anywhere you have on hand will do! You can also leave the offering on the windowsill where it can capture light without being outside.

Essential Oils to Support Your Through this Full Moon

HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS ON THE FULL MOON

• In the bath: add up to four drops of essential oil to one cup of salt (Epsom salts or sea salt). You can use more salt if desired. Dissolve in bath.
• Massage: the full moon is said to be a good time to focus on your heart chakra, and what better way to open up that heart chakra than sharing a massage with a loved one? Add up to 18 drops of essential oil to 1 oz of the carrier oil of your choice.
• Diffusing: diffuse as usual during meditation or whatever magickal things you like to do on the full moon.

Given the nature of full moons, I've tried to highlight oils that are grounding, centring and balancing; that assist in release negative patterns or attachments; that help us to feel calm, safe and at peace; and that are connected with the moon.
This is a good time to use any of your favourite oils with any of those properties (there are lots!), or any oils you feel intuitively drawn to. Here are some options to get you started:

• benzoin - said to be helpful with spiritual transformation, benzoin also lends feelings of calm, safety and peace

• lemongrass - to help you tap into your intuition and true feelings, as well as cleanse and release any negative energies and old belief systems that no longer serve us
• marjoram - in this context, marjoram is useful to help bring about change and growth. It is also said to relax and calm the mind, allowing you to identify the thoughts and emotions that are affecting you at a deeper level.
