🕯️ Scorpio Full Moon Ritual: Reclaim Your Energy
You’ll need:
Journal + pen
Small piece of paper
Candle
Fireproof dish or bowl
Optional: obsidian or black tourmaline for protection
Step 1: Set the Space
Dim the lights. Light your candle and take 5 deep breaths.
Say aloud:
“I call all of my energy back to me — whole, clean, and unburdened.”
Step 2: Truth Writing
In your journal, write down what you now see clearly — patterns, pain, or people that have kept you stuck. Be brutally honest.
Then, on a separate piece of paper, write what you are ready to release. This might include:
A repeating emotional wound
An attachment or entanglement
A belief that no longer serves you
Step 3: Burn + Let Go
Fold the paper outward, away from you.
Place it in the fireproof dish and burn it safely, watching the smoke rise.
Say:
“I release this now. I reclaim my energy. I honour the wisdom gained.”
Step 4: Ground Yourself
Hold your grounding crystal (if using), or place both hands over your lower belly. Breathe in and out slowly for 2 minutes to anchor your energy.

What truth have I been avoiding that now needs to be acknowledged?
Where am I ready to reclaim my power and rewrite the story?
🦂 Final Reflection
Scorpio teaches us that release is a sacred act.
Letting go isn’t weakness — it’s alchemy.
You are not the pain that happened to you.
You are the woman rising from the ashes of it — wiser, braver, more whole than before.
