August’s Sturgeon Moon: Heal and Appreciate Growth and Nature! 

Tonight is super special because I’m zooming off on my Full Moon Flight to catch a glimpse of the Sturgeon Moon! Did you know August’s full moon is called the Sturgeon Moon? Native American tribes named it that because they used to catch lots of sturgeon fish in the northeast of the U.S. during August. It's also called the Red Moon because it sometimes looks reddish around this time.

The Sturgeon Moon is like the grand finale of summer! It's like nature's way of saying, "Get ready, fall is on the way!" Full moons are amazing times to let go of any negative feelings and become an even better, happier you. Just like the sturgeon fish, which have been around for ages, we might feel old stuff coming up to the surface. But that's okay! We can listen to our hearts and trust our feelings to guide us through.

Before I take off on my broom, I sprinkle it with Purple Magic Moondust on my broom. When past emotions rise to the surface, not all of them are positive emotions, but that is okay! This purple moondust helps heal these feelings. The Purple Flower Power is a special moondust that represents growth. We may need a little extra power when we feel down, and this flower power will do the trick! 

This full moon is the perfect time to practice magical rose breathing. This is when we release everything we don’t need and embrace all the things we love and are passionate about. We breathe in the beautiful scent of the rose, and also inhale joy, love, and peace, and exhale all negativity. 

When the Sturgeon Moon shines bright, it reminds us to enjoy nature's strength and to take care of our feelings. 

Crystals for August’s Sturgeon Full Moon

Amethyst Crystal:

My Amethyst Aura Crystal represents peace, playfulness and healing. This crystal charges by the healing energy I have within, which helps me with emotions that rise to the surface. The deep peace I have inside myself, helps me see my true fate. I carry this crystal in my pocket to stay peaceful, playful and heal myself and others. I can also use my healing heart, which is also an amethyst crystal. It does the same thing as my amethyst crystal, but it is in the shape of a heart, which reminds me to pay attention to my own heart. If I follow what my heart tells me to do, it will led me on the right path.

My Favorite Hat for August’s Sturgeon Full Moon

I love rocking my “Dorothy Good” light pink witch hat! It's all about being playful and full of life, just like Dorothy Good herself. She was only four years old when people thought she was a witch!
