September Harvest Moon [Friday the 13th] 🎃🍂

Many cultures believe the number 13 to be unlucky, which dates back to the middle ages, in which individuals associated the number 13 with the idea that, at the “Last Supper,” Judas, the disciple who betrayed Jesus, was the 13th to sit at the table. Aside from that, it is said that there were 13 individuals present (Jesus, included) at the Last Supper which took place the day before “Good Friday,” or the day that Jesus was crucified. Other biblical references cite Friday as being unlucky because Friday was the day Jesus was crucified, Friday was the day Eve gave Adam a poisoned apple, and Friday was the day that Cain slew his brother, Able. 

In other lore, a similar story occurs in Norse mythology where Loki interrupts a dinner at Valhalla that was comprised of 12 Gods, Loki being the 13th God to arrive. 

Succinctly, the number 12 is seen as a number of completion, and the number 13 in succession is a number of chaos, imbalance, and irregularity. 

In modern day mysticism, the number 13 actually has some positive attributes. 

In numerology, the number 13 is equal to the number 4 (1 + 3 = 4) which is associated with independence, freedom, pragmatism, creativity, and a firm foundation for the future. 

In terms of tarot cards, the 13th card in the Major Arcana is the Death card, which signifies transformation, metamorphosis, change, rebirth, and renewal, despite the unnerving first impressions that the Death card may give. 

According to the I Ching (an ancient Chinese divinatory text), the number 13 represents unity and bonding with mankind. 

So, what is significant about this particular full moon occuring on Friday the 13th? 

This particular moon is called the “Harvest Moon” which is the name of the full moon occuring closest to the Autumn or Fall equinox. 

It also happens to coincide with the moon’s apogee, meaning it is at its greatest distance from the Earth. 

This full moon can be considered a “micro moon” - because of its distance from the Earth, it will appear to be about 14% smaller to the naked eye. 

There will not be another full moon that takes place on Friday the 13th until August 13th, 2049.

With all that being said, what does this moon mean for your magickal and spiritual practice? 

Micromoons are good for works having to do with extreme focus and productivity. 

Full moons are associated with power, cleansing, charging, healing, divination, emotions, psychic awareness, enlightenment, and banishing.

The Harvest Moon can be associated with reaping what you have sown this past year - this includes collecting debts and embracing the fruits of your labor in order to create a clean slate for the rest of the year. 

This moon is also going to be in the sign of Pisces - in general, a full moon in Pisces is associated with all things emotional, creative, and psychic. 

Friday is the day of Venus, which is associated with cooperation, unity, companionship, and creativity. 

As I mentioned above, the number 13 in modern day mysticism is associated with independence, freedom, pragmatism, creativity, unity, transformation, and rebirth. 

In short, this Full Moon in Pisces on Friday the 13th can be quite useful in terms of harnessing one’s creative potential, being in tune with one’s emotions, tapping into one’s psychic abilities, preparing for a grand personal transformation, recognizing one’s hard work and effort, and acknowledging the connection between oneself and the rest of mankind.

Shadow Work.

Shadow work is the proccess of transmuting ones suppressed aspects of ones self. Unconscious habits or some buried thought patterns inside it. 

When someone is not getting their shadow integrated they tend to be naive and is not their whole self anymore, thus, not being the best version of themselves.

Integration of the shadow could be a dangerous process. What’s even more dangerous is having an unintegrated shadow. This is a lifetime process and should be studied carefully. There’s no going back after you’ve started it.

Fundamentals of Integrating the Shadow Self

The first and most important step is admitting that you have a shadow self: stop being unreal and all fluffy living inside a rainbow and admit that there’s a dark part of yourself that needs to be balanced with your light self (lets assume).

To proceed, the next step is to look for triggers: anything that triggers negative emotions or makes you feel uncomfortable. This could be anything and it could be  thoughts and actions of your own, or someone elses. Look for similarities and start connecting the dots.

Then, you need to ask yourself questions: why am I responding this way? and where has this way came from? this is to know the root cause of that thought pattern, and it is very powerful and necessary in order to move into the next step.

Last but not least, Be the destroyer and the healer: Take the limiting beliefs and start asking: what is this belief causing me? is it serving me or not? then destroy it. Destroying a belief has multiple ways, but for me the most powerful way is to say: I reject that thought. you could say it out loud (and it’s more powerful) or you could say it in your head. Be attentive and creative about it.
