“Salt is the earth’s quiet fire — it absorbs what weighs you down and leaves only clarity for the moonlight to touch.” — Alia Marino 🌙✨
🌕 Why Salt?
Salt has been honored in nearly every tradition as a purifier. It absorbs stagnant energy, neutralizes heaviness, and seals your space with clarity. Before a karmic Full Moon — when emotions peak and patterns surface — salt becomes a simple yet powerful ally.
🔮 Step-by-Step Ritual
Choose your salt — Sea salt or Himalayan salt work beautifully.
Set your intention — Whisper what you wish to release (fear, doubt, old cycles).
Create your circle — Sprinkle salt around your sacred space, or place a small bowl at your altar.
Light a candle — Imagine its flame igniting fresh energy.
Breathe deeply — Visualize the salt absorbing what no longer serves you.
🌌 Why Before the Full Moon?
The days leading up to a karmic Full Moon amplify old stories and emotions. By cleansing with salt beforehand, you make space for revelations instead of overwhelm. It’s like opening the window before a storm — letting the winds pass through without shaking the foundation.
🌑 Enhance the Salt Ritual
Place a crystal (clear quartz or amethyst work beautifully) near the bowl of salt to amplify clarity and protection.
Before you begin, take three deep breaths — in through the nose, hold for a count of three, then release slowly through the mouth. With each exhale, imagine heavy energy leaving your body.
As you sprinkle or circle the salt, whisper an intention: “I release the weight of the past and step into karmic balance.”
This Full Moon isn’t only about endings — it’s about stepping into clearer alignment with your path. Salt simply prepares the ground for the light to do its work.
