  • Shedding Our Skins: Moon Rituals & Sacred Stories
    Nov 15 2024

    In this intimate episode of Coffee Date With Spirit, Kristen and Amy explore the power of moon rituals and sacred feminine wisdom through their own personal experiences. Beginning with a grounding meditation, they share their evolving relationships with full moon practices - from simple crystal cleansing to profound moonlit ceremonies.

    The conversation weaves through their shared interest in moon energy, with Amy recounting sacred skinny dipping with soul sisters, and Kristen sharing her family's tradition of full moon gelato, watching the moonrise over the ocean. They discuss how moon rituals can be both structured (crystal cleansing, intention setting, prayer writing) and spontaneous (naked moon-bathing, beach ceremonies), emphasizing that there's no "right way" to connect with lunar energy.

    A “focus” card reading from an Angels Oracle deck brings the message to "think about what you want, not what you don't want," perfectly complementing their discussion about moon rituals as opportunities for both release and manifestation. The episode closes with a beautiful shared meditation and prayer for transformation.

    Whether you're curious about starting your own moon practice or looking to deepen your existing ritual work, this conversation offers practical suggestions while honoring the sacred mystery of working with lunar cycles. Join us for an authentic discussion about making magic accessible in everyday life.

    ✨ Featured in this episode: moon rituals, focus card reading, grounding meditation, and a transformational prayer.
