October’s Full Moon continues
the Harvest Moon cycle, this one being known as the Hunter’s Moon or Blood
Moon, which is pretty self-explanatory. Since the bright moon rises shortly
after sunset and remains visible pretty much all night on this night in the
Northern Hemisphere, it assisted nocturnal hunters in finding prey. Sacrifices
of thanks for the growing season were not uncommon. It is also traditionally a time of feasting
and bonfires.....
.. ..
Because of the Bonfires and
Campfires connection with this full moon, energies of the element of fire
abound – which of course is the Southern realm of Satan himself. Remember to
honor Satan and his attributes of Lust, Truth, the fire of Lifeforce and
Inspiration.....
.. ..
Other ways of enhancing your
ceremony this time around is the Feasting, the abundance of Autumn’s offerings
– pumpkin pie immediately comes to mind, as does corn on the cob, apples (maybe sliced and served with caramel
dip) and cider, or cakes or cupcakes made with a cinnamon-y Spice flavor. ....

For 2009, this Full Moon is Sunday,
Oct. 4.
