The first Full Moon of the year is here, and it illuminates the constellation of Leo, linked to expression, creativity and fertility. The night of January 25 (and all Full Moon nights, in fact) is perfect for looking up at the sky, letting yourself be flooded by its beauty, and closing cycles, marking culminations or major turning points. This is the meaning of the Full Moon: something is completed to make way for something new. It's time, then, to reap what we have sown and let a new cycle begin.
Because the Moon will shine in all its splendor in Leo, a loving and fiery sign by nature, this is the time to pay attention to what you're passionate about, listen to your heart and follow it. Basically, the question is: what makes your soul shine? And believe.
In tune with the moon, in seven steps
When the moon is full, it's time to celebrate. It could be anything: a relationship, success at work, the motivation to take care of yourself. But this day deserves to be marked on the calendar because it really is perfect for giving thanks, celebrating the wonders of life, and of course, taking care of yourself with a self-care ritual that will make you shine, from the inside out, and in tune with the moon.
Take advantage of the energy of this moon phase to recharge your batteries, take care of yourself and manifest your deepest dreams. Take a look at the ritual we've prepared to navigate this Full Moon and let yourself be flooded by its beauty and magnetism.
You'll need:
- A candle
- A small box
- Flower petals
- A small sheet of paper
- A pen
- Jasmine cleansing oil
- Honey and Acai Luminous Mask
- Ilumina Facial Serum
1. Put on a super-comfortable outfit, or if you prefer, go naked.
2. Light your candle to begin the ritual. If you don't know it yet, you can try the Sea candlewith notes of passion fruit and coconut.
3. Cleanse your face with our Jasmine cleansing oilwhich tones and balances the skin for a deep, gentle cleanse. For an even more delightful effect, wipe your face gently with a 100% cotton towel dampened in warm water.
This cleansing oil helps to reduce excess oil, removes dead cells and restores the skin's pH, leaving it clean, moisturized and healthy.
4. After cleansing your skin, apply the Luminous Mask with Honey and Açaí. Formulated with natural antioxidant and moisturizing ingredients, it gently exfoliates while deeply nourishing the skin, restoring elasticity and radiance.
5. The moment of intention has arrived. While you let the mask take effect (for 10 minutes, before rinsing off with warm water), place your hand over your heart and root yourself in the present moment. Repeat to yourself: "I am here", and "I am listening". Let your wish or intention manifest in your mind. Write this intention on the piece of paper and draw any symbols on the paper that have a special meaning.
6. Fold the paper in three, facing you, and kiss the paper to seal the intention. Keep it in the box and sprinkle some petals on top. Place the box and the lit candle in a prominent place, like an altar. Honor this place and scatter some petals around the candle and the box.
7. Remove the mask and end your Full Moon ritual with the prodigious Illuminate: Facial Serum. Light, silky and easily absorbed, it contains prickly pear oil, rich in vitamin E and antioxidants, seaweed extract, for a vitamin boost for the skin, and argan oil, for deep hydration. Put two or three drops on the skin and massage the face, always in upward movements, or with the help of a dermaroller. Let the candle burn for at least an hour.
After this wonderful ritual, you'll feel in harmony with yourself and the world around you. Embrace the good things in life and let a new cycle begin, inspired by the Full Moon, with a new glow!
