Full Harvest Moon September 20, 2021 and the Autumnal Equinox

September 12, 2021 2 Comments

Time to say goodbye to Summer and welcome the arrival of Autumn which will be heralded by a Harvest Moon on Sept. 20 in Pisces.  In traditional Skylore, the Harvest Moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox, which will take place on Sept. 22.  There’s more power around this full Moon vent any of the others this past year because of it coming right next to the Fall Equinox.  

Fall is my absolute favorite time of the year.  I just love the feeling that’s in the air and visible through the changing of the leaves.

We certainly need some changes with all that we have been through the past two years.  You have to admit this has been the strangest time ever.  This September Full Moon is bringing us personal freedom.  Good luck seems to be migrating around this Full Moon.  After so much darkness this past year it’s like a light is coming on and shining down on us in a positive manner.  So the spiritual meaning of full moon September 2021 is related to optimism, generosity, good fortune, and good news.

In olden days the farmers would use the full Harvest Moon to bring in their crops, because it stayed light so long on this night, and maybe that is the message that is here for us.  The Harvest Moon puts the focus on the harvest in our lives, whether it is the literal harvest with crops from your garden, or the energy around you that you are harvesting, this is a really important time to know where you stand and how you are finishing out your year.

Being as this full Moon is in the sign of Pisces it will bring a calming water affect, which will bring about an attunement for your emotions.  So any feelings that come your way doing this time be gentle with yourself and know that you are being reconditioned and recharged by this healing water of Pisces.

Keywords for this Pisces Full Moon are: sensitivity, intuition, music, dreams, escapes, addiction, the ocean, creativity, dance, nature, forgiveness and compassion.

Unlike other Full Moons, this one is specifically related to the Autumn (Northern Hemisphere) or Spring (Southern Hemisphere) Equinoxes on 22 September. It is a time where everything is illuminated in order to gather the harvest. The Full Moon sheds its brilliant light, making everything easy to see and gather.

The veils between the worlds are thinnest around a full moon, so be careful what you invite in. It is best used to purge things out, and banish the negative energies back to the underworld from where they came. Make sure you close the door firmly afterwards! This is a good time for learning and practicing the White Light Protection of God.

Now more than ever we need to keep our spiritual and physical selves protected with the wonderful power of God’s White Light.

Archangel Asariel is busy working with us during the Harvest Moon.  As this archangel is associated with Pisces he comes in strong to guide us through these difficult waters.  Ask and he will help guide your spirit. Asariel watches over your emotions and the ebb and flow of life, encouraging creativity and teaching through dreams and inner wisdom.

It is perfectly fine to have big visions and to strive to live our dreams however, under this energy, we need to bring our focus and attention to how we are actually spending the minutes of our day.

It’s what we do day in and day out that creates our life, so think about your daily routine and how you can tidy things up and schedule more time for the things you really want to do.

This month is also great for getting organized, for clearing out the clutter from your home or your mind, and for making sure your routine leaves time for self- care.

If you have felt sluggish, unmotivated or if things have been moving too slow for your liking, September may bring the push you have been looking for. If there is something you’ve been meaning to do, or something you wish to cross off your to-do list, take action this full Moon, as you may just find things get done much quicker than expected!

The beginning of September turns our thoughts to fresh starts, busy school years, and heightened activity in preparation for winter. Use the attributes of the season to create your own fresh start.  Use this clean slate as a vision board for the next month.

What You Need for Your Vision Board

Purchase a small chalkboard, a few sticks of chalk, and an eraser.

On the board, write all the things you want to change in your life.

Read the list out loud three times.

• Take a deep breath.
• Then take the eraser and wipe your slate clean.
• Now write an affirmation on the board.

Keep it in a prominent place, speaking the affirmation at least three times a day for thirty days.

Use the chalkboard to remind you that you can “wipe away” what is outmoded in your life and replace it with something positive

It is time for us to spiritually shed the dead parts from our souls, just like the trees are letting go of the leaves, and make way for the new growth that is being released at this sacred time. This is your opportunity to advance your soul growth. Do not let this moment pass you by. 

This is a wonderful time to do a Full Moon Release Ceremony.

• Write down all of the things that you would like to release on a piece of paper.
• Go outside and read your releases out loud
• Use a barbecue, fireplace, or a pot to burn the paper.
• Thank the Moon, God, and all that is Divine and put out the fire.

While September proves to be a generous month, we must be ever conscious of the path ahead, the needs that may arise and that life is always a maze of shifts, twists and turns.

Uncover and understand what came before and what lies ahead in the spiritual harvest of September’s gratitude and grace.  All Full Moons offer the opportunity to let go – and here, the door is open.

This is the harvest time, where all the hard work and effort we have put into things in the past, so tirelessly, is about to be rewarded. We will start to reap what we have sewn.

Things have definitely not been easy this year and you may be feeling tired like you have been working so hard for little reward, but do not give up even though you are tired. Do not quit so close to the finish line as you are nearly there and with the energy that is coming through you will be able to reach your goals.

What are you harvesting now?  Take advantage of a Full Moon Reading which will give you guidance on your path. This is a special time of year to direct how your year ends. I have designed a reading that will be perfect to harness the energy of what is occurring now in your life!

Full Moon Blessings and a Happy Fall,
Cherokee Billie
