You are warmly invited to gather under the Full Moon in Virgo: a moon of discernment, integration, grounding and gentle recalibration. This is not a loud moon. It doesn’t roar.
It clears. (It also has a way of lovingly pointing out where things are… a bit messy. Ask me how I know. Pisces Sun, Virgo Moon over here 🙋‍♀️)
Virgo energy brings us back to the body, the breath and the basics. It asks us to notice what’s actually working, what’s quietly draining us and what needs tending. Not with judgement, but with care. This lunation invites us to release perfectionism, self-criticism and the endless mental loops of “I should be doing more / better / differently”.
Under this Full Moon, clarity comes not from pushing harder, but from simplifying:
🧹 from clearing the clutter physically, emotionally, energetically.
🧹 from listening to the nervous system and honouring what it’s asking for.
This lunar moment asks:
🌿 What is ready to be refined or released?
🌿 Where have you been over-functioning or overthinking?
🌿 What would it feel like to offer yourself the same compassion you give everyone else?
Instead of analysing it to death (because Virgo 😅), we drum it out.
We let rhythm settle the mind. We let repetition soothe the nervous system. We return to the body, the breath and the quiet wisdom that lives there.
This Full Moon reminds us that healing doesn’t have to be dramatic. Sometimes it’s subtle. Sometimes it’s practical. Sometimes it’s simply coming back into alignment one beat at a time.
Full Moon drumming is time out for you.
Yes, there’s intention, release and a little magic.
And yes, there’s drumming… or rattling, chanting, humming, laughing or sitting quietly in grounded contemplation — whatever your system needs on the night.
What to bring:
– A drum, rattle, voice or heartbeat (hands and hearts absolutely count)
– A blanket or chair and layers (the lake can get cool at night)
– Nibbles if you need sustenance (vino optional, Virgo won’t judge 😉 Pisces will 🤣)
– Something you’re ready to release
– And a simple, grounded intention you’re ready to embody
This is a free, inclusive, family-friendly event.
All beings. All ages. All energy levels welcome.
Come as you are: organised or chaotic, calm or frazzled, quiet or curious. You belong here.
Parking is limited, so please carpool if you can.
Let’s gather by the lake under the Full Moon in Virgo, and let rhythm, breath and community gently bring us back into balance... not by fixing ourselves, but by remembering we were never broken.
