Each full moon of the year has a name (actually, many names based on different traditions), as well as a specific energy that makes it suitable for different types of work. Below is a list detailing some of the full moon names and their energies.
Each year (in general) has one Blue Moon. This occurs when one month has two full moons. The first full moon of the month would be the regular full moon as listed above. The second full moon is the Blue Moon, which is suitable for setting long-term goals, prophesying, divination, and past-life regression.

I'm a mom, wife, needleworker, knitter, wannabe writer, and most of all a spiritual seeker. I'm not sure yet what I believe, but I sure as heck know what I don't believe.
