Moon rituals are definitely one of my favourite ways to manifest – they help me to feel more connected and they make use of the moon’s powerful energies to supercharge my manifestations.
A full moon ritual in particular is the perfect time to welcome in any manifestations that you opened with your new moon ritual.
That’s because the full moon is the time when the moon’s energy is most potent.
By creating your own unique full moon ritual for manifestation, you can make use of these potent energies in a way that works for you and helps you to connect on a personal level.

When to do a full moon ritual
A question that comes up often is when to do a full moon ritual.
For example, do you have to do it at night when you can physically see the full moon? Or can you also do it during the day?
My simple answer is to do it as close to the time the moon enters full as possible. (You can find specific moon times for your location here)
In some cases, this will actually be during the day, and just because you cannot see the moon in her fullness, that does not mean that the energies are not there.
I personally do like to do all of my moon rituals in the evening/at night though, especially my full moon ritual.
That’s because I feel like being able to see the moon helps me to connect more, which will in turn make my manifestations stronger.
Certain parts of my ritual are also dependent on the moon’s light, such as charging my crystals or making full moon water.
But, if you’re somebody who doesn’t like staying up late, or you feel most connected in the mornings, then you can absolutely do your full moon ritual at another time.
I always say that the best time to do any ritual is the time that works for you. It is pointless forcing yourself to do your rituals at certain times if you do not feel like you’re in the right energy.
So listen to your energy and do your own full moon ritual when it feels right.

Can you do a full moon ritual the next day or the day before?
Yes, absolutely!
It doesn’t really matter what date the full moon falls on, because it’s more about timings and practicing as close to the full moon as possible.
For instance, if the full moon is at 1am on Monday 2nd, it would probably make more sense to perform your full moon ritual on the evening of Sunday 1st than it would to wait until you wake up on Monday 2nd to perform it.
As a rule of thumb, you should aim to practice your full moon ritual within 12 hours either side of the full moon.
So with the example above, you would carry out your ritual at a time that suits you between 1pm on Sunday 1st and 1pm on Monday 2nd.
That’s because this is the window when the energy of the full moon is most potent.
However, you can extend this to 24hr either side if that works better for you, and you will still be able to harness the energy of the full moon.
