The Blood Moon and What It Teaches About Letting Go
The crimson mirror in the sky
Every Blood Moon stirs something ancient in us—the pull to release what’s old, to make peace with what we’ve buried.
At Shadowlark, our upcoming Under the Blood Moon circle honors that pull through ritual, reflection, and collective reading.
What the Blood Moon represents
Spiritually, the Blood Moon marks endings that lead to beginnings. It asks:
What have you been carrying that’s ready to dissolve?
Which version of yourself is no longer needed?
Can you allow closure without bitterness?
How to work with its energy
Even if you don’t attend a circle, you can honor the Blood Moon at home:
Light a single candle and name what you’re releasing.
Write it on paper and safely burn or bury it.
Speak gratitude for what that chapter taught you.
Closing reflection
The Blood Moon reminds us that letting go isn’t loss—it’s sacred compost. What falls away nourishes what’s next.
