Worm Full Moon
The March Worm Moon is here to help you release everything that no longer defines you and guide you toward making better decisions that serve your future path.
A new chapter is coming
The March full moon is known as the Worm Moon, signaling warmer soil, where worms re-emerge and attract migrating birds to feed. Native Americans named this last full moon of Winter the Worm Moon after the worm trails that would appear in the newly thawed ground. Other names for this moon include the Chaste Moon, Death Moon, Crust Moon, and Sap Moon—so named for the tapping of maple trees. Here in the northern regions, we can also begin tapping birch trees.
March’s full moon is the first full moon of the astrological year—a release of the past 12-month cycle and a time to begin anew.
During this Worm Moon, your new chapter is closer than you realize. Doing your inner "housekeeping" now will set you up for the path ahead. The Worm Moon is here to support you in taking a leap of faith.
The Power Pratice of Forgiveness and Letting Go
Letting go is not as easy as it sounds. It takes courage to un-own false truths. The March full moon is here as your sacred companion, helping you embrace the power of release.
A big part of letting go is learning to forgive. Forgiveness is a powerful force that dissolves resentment, bitterness, and the sense of lost opportunities or wasted time. It is about minimizing the space you hold for past hurts and violations. More importantly, it is about forgiving yourself for past choices and broken dreams—choosing instead to practice gratitude for the lessons they carried.
Forgiveness is about reframing events and emotions within your inner world. Consider the things that harmed you as something that was never truly yours to begin with—burdens offered by someone else or shaped by the outside world, but not a reflection of who you are.
Whatever emotions or memories arise during this full moon, trust that they are surfacing to be seen, reframed, and perhaps even transformed. Self-forgiveness allows you to release the weight of past choices and move forward with clarity.
Remember, you (and others) have mostly acted with the best intentions and the resources available at the time. But we are all human. Just as you carry wounds, so do others—but they also carry hopes and dreams, just like you.
Life is about learning. As you forgive yourself and others, you create space for new opportunities. Often, we hold onto the past not because it defines who we are now, but because it feels familiar, even when it no longer serves us. You may have already changed more than you realize. Now is the time to trust the wiser, more experienced version of yourself. It is time to shift your gaze forward, toward where you will apply the lessons you have learned.
If you still find (self-)forgiveness difficult, remember this: When we forgive, it is not just for the other person—it is for ourselves. Letting go of resentment frees our energy, restores our joy, and opens our eyes to the opportunities that exist in the present moment. With that in mind, perhaps forgiveness feels a little easier now?
Embracing Change: The Eclipse Gateway of the Spring Season
This March Full Moon also opens the Spring Season’s eclipse chapter, a time of heightened transformation and cosmic realignment. Eclipses act as catalysts for change, revealing hidden truths and accelerating shifts that have been building beneath the surface. As the light and shadow dance in the sky, they mirror the inner work we are called to do—releasing outdated patterns, embracing new perspectives, and stepping into a more authentic version of ourselves. This is a powerful period for reflection and intention-setting, as the universe clears paths that may have once seemed blocked. Trust the process, even if it feels uncertain—eclipses have a way of guiding us exactly where we are meant to be.
For the next few weeks, trust your teachings and trust your intuition when you know something is right—or wrong. Trust that you are in the midst of creating a better life, right now, in this very moment.
Believe in your own power to influence and create by letting go of the past and stepping into a new space—blank and pristine—ready for you to paint with all your beautiful colors.
The world is waiting for your beauty to unfold.
🌝 Full Moon Blessings,
