The night sky is set to grace us with a rare celestial event to celebrate the last full moon of summer – a Blue Supermoon. This rare event holds both spiritual and astrological significance that resonates deeply with those attuned to the energies of the universe. In this blog post, we delve into the magic and meaning behind the upcoming Blue Supermoon, inviting you to embrace its unique influence.
Understanding the Blue Supermoon:
A Blue Supermoon occurs when two phenomena meet – a Blue Moon and a Supermoon. A Blue Moon is the second full moon in a calendar month, an infrequent event that lends itself to the phrase "once in a blue moon." A Supermoon, on the other hand, takes place when the moon is at its closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit, resulting in a larger and more luminous appearance in the night sky. The last Blue Supermoon was December 2009, and if you miss this years', you'll have to wait another 9 years for the next one in 2032!
Astrological Meaning:
Astrologically, this merging creates a potent energy vortex that affects our emotional and spiritual lives. As the moon's gravitational pull on Earth intensifies, so do our intuitive senses and emotional sensitivities. The Blue Supermoon is a time of heightened emotions, a call to navigate the tides of our inner worlds with awareness and compassion.
Spiritual Significance:
From a spiritual perspective, the Blue Supermoon is a doorway to deeper soul observation and transformation. Its energy encourages us to release what no longer serves us, making space for renewal and growth. Just as the moon goes through phases, so do our lives. This lunar event invites us to embrace change and adapt to the cycles of life, much like the moon waxes and wanes in the night sky.
Harnessing the Energy:
During this time, meditation and mindfulness become valuable tools. The amplified energies of the Blue Supermoon make it an ideal moment to set intentions, meditate, and engage in rituals that align with personal growth and spiritual connection. Whether you choose to meditate under its radiant glow or charge your crystals, this event is an opportunity to harness the cosmic energy and direct it towards your spiritual journey.
Rituals and Practices:
1. Cleansing: Cleanse your space and yourself
with sage or palo santo, letting go of any energy
that doesn't support your highest self, and inviting positive energy into your environment.
2. Journaling: Reflect on your intentions, desires, and dreams. Write them down and release them into the universe, allowing the energy of the Blue Supermoon to amplify your manifestations.
3. Meditation: Practice meditation under the moonlight to enhance your connection with your inner self and the universe.
4. Crystals: Charge your crystals under the Blue Supermoon to infuse them with potent energy. I've been feeling particularly resonated with herkimer diamond lately, which we will exclusively have available on our Instagram live sale. Follow us to stay updated:

In Conclusion:
The Blue Supermoon is a celestial gift, an opportunity to attune ourselves to the universe and the rethink the cycles in our lives. As the night sky ignites with its radiant presence, let us remember that we are connected to the cosmos in ways that are beyond the material world. Embrace the energy, and let the Blue Supermoon be your guide on a spiritual journey towards self-discovery, growth, and transformation.
