Speaker 1 (00:00):
Every July, the full buck moon rises like a call to

reminds you to stand tall, shedwhat's been weighing you down
and walk into your next chapterwith clarity, courage and
self-worth.

(01:06):
That's where the magic lives.
Welcome to Life Points withRhonda, where we talk about the
real stuff relationships,self-growth, healing and
everything in between.
I'm your host, rhonda, andtoday we're tapping into the
bold and empowering energy ofthe full buck moon.
(01:28):
This is the moon of regrowth,realignment and rising into your
strength.
If you've been feeling likesomething's got to shift, this
episode is your sign.
What is the full buck moon.
Every full moon carries its ownpersonality, its own energy and
(01:48):
its own lessons.
But the full buck moon isdifferent.
It doesn't just glow, it growls.
It signals power, progress and,most of all, potential.
Occurring each July, this moongets its name from the time of
year when male deer or bucksbegin to regrow their antlers
after shedding them in thespring.
That image alone is powerfulHorns rising from the head like
(02:13):
a crown, not for decoration, butfor defense, for identity, for
survival.
So what does that mean for you?
It means this moon is aboutrestoring your strength,
especially after a season whenyou might have felt stripped
bare.
Maybe life has challenged you,maybe your confidence took a hit
(02:35):
, maybe you've been walkingaround Spiritually bald,
vulnerable, unsure of who youare.
Now the buck moon says Stand up, reclaim your stance.
Vulnerable, unsure of who youare.
Now the buck moon says stand up, reclaim your stance, let
yourself grow back sharper,wiser and stronger than ever
before.
(02:56):
There's also a practical layerto this moon.
In the sky, this full moonusually falls in Capricorn or
Aquarius, depending on the year.
When it's in Capricorn, iturges us to look at where we
need structure, self-disciplineand responsibility.
Are your goals aligned withyour values?
Are your relationships helpingor hindering your growth?
(03:16):
Capricorn asks you to build asolid foundation, brick by brick
, and if it lands in Aquarius,the vibe shifts to revolution,
freedom and communityconsciousness.
Aquarius wants you to dream big, step outside the box and
contribute something meaningfulto the world.
But no matter the sign, onething remains true the Buck Moon
(03:40):
is about growth after loss.
It's about choosing not to staysmall just because life once
forced you to shrink.
Spiritually, this moon touchesdeep emotional layers.
It's not just about poweringthrough.
It's about aligning your powerwith your purpose.
It asks what have I beenholding on to that no longer
(04:01):
belongs to me?
What parts of myself am I readyto restore?
What do I need in order to moveforward on my terms?
When the buck moon rises, youmay feel a surge of clarity,
even discomfort, that's normal.
Growth always brings friction,but friction is also what
sharpens the blade.
So don't be surprised if thismoon stirs your spirit.
(04:22):
That's the medicine.
Let it remind you that you tooare in a cycle of shedding and
regrowth, and there is nothingsoft about that.
This moon is not here tocomfort you.
It's here to challenge you, toremember your power, the energy
of shedding and strength.
There's a sacred moment innature when something that once
served you begins to fall away,not because it was bad, but
(04:45):
because it's no longer needed.
That's what this moon teachesus.
Like the buck who sheds hisantlers to make room for
stronger ones, you too are beingcalled to release what's
outlived its season.
Let's talk about what thatreally means.
Shedding isn't glamorous.
It's not always peaceful.
Sometimes it's raw, messy anduncomfortable.
Sometimes it looks like youcrying on the floor because a
(05:08):
version of you that once keptyou safe no longer fits.
Sometimes it's breakinggenerational patterns with
trembling hands.
Sometimes it's walking awayfrom something you prayed for
because your spirit evolvedbeyond it.
But here's the truth you cannotcarry what's meant for the next
version of you while draggingthe weight of who you used to be
(05:31):
.
This full-buck moon is callingyou into alignment, into
responsibility for your own soul, into truth, and not just the
truth you tell other people, butthe one you've been avoiding in
the mirror.
This moon asks you what burdensam I still carrying that were
never mine?
What outdated identities am Istill performing to stay
(05:52):
accepted?
Where have I outgrown the room,the role, the routine?
There's a kind of strength thatcomes from knowing your worth
without waiting for others toconfirm it, from releasing
something not because you don'tlove it but because you love
yourself more.
The Buck Moon isn't about thehustle.
It's about the honest work ofletting go, of standing tall
(06:15):
after a season that tried tomake you small, of understanding
that when something falls awayit's not always a loss, it's a
spiritual renovation.
So I want you to ask yourselfwhat are you ready to shed, not
just intellectually, butspiritually, not just talk about
but walk away from and remember.
This process doesn't make youweak, it makes you wild, it
(06:39):
makes you wise, it makes youfree, ancestral healing and
self-worth activation.
There are some weights youcan't see in the mirror, but you
feel them In your chest, inyour tired decisions, in the way
you apologize for taking upspace or shrink your truth to
keep the peace.
These are not just personalhabits.
(07:02):
These are inherited patterns,spiritual muscle memory passed
down through bloodlines.
The full buck moon touches theseinvisible wounds, the ones too
many of us carry silently.
And if you've ever felt likeyou're doing everything right
but still feel stuck, you're notalone.
You're likely moving throughsomething bigger than you,
something ancestral.
(07:23):
Let's call it what it isGenerational survival.
You might not have grown up inliteral chains, but many of us
still move as if we're bound,bound by expectations, by
silence, by cycles of proving,performing and people-pleasing,
bound by shame that wasn't bornin us but lives in our family
(07:43):
story.
That shame says don't be tooloud, don't take too long, don't
dream too big, don't rest untilit hurts.
But under the full buck moon,the ancestors lean in, not to
scold you but to liberate you,because strength isn't just what
you survived.
Strength is what you choose tostop passing down.
Let me say that again Strengthis what you choose to stop
(08:06):
passing down.
This moon is sacred, not becauseit's soft, but because it's
honest.
It demands truth.
It says what do you really wantto release?
What fear has overstayed itswelcome?
What lie have you inheritedthat you're finally ready to
unlearn?
For some of us, that lie is Ihave to struggle to be valuable.
(08:27):
I can't say no or I'll loselove.
My worth is tied to how much Ido for others.
But your ancestors didn't crossoceans, endure loss, survive
bondage or carry faith throughfire, so you could just barely
get by.
They endured so you couldremember your birthright.
That birthright is wholeness,wealth, not just financial, but
(08:51):
emotional and spiritual wellness, joy, a voice that doesn't
tremble, a body that isn'tconstantly braced for impact, a
heart that is free to lovewithout betrayal.
A life that feels like yours.
And let's be clear, this isn'tabout disrespecting your lineage
, it's about elevating it,because when you heal, your
(09:13):
ancestors rise with you.
When you claim your worth, youshift timelines.
When you break patterns, youbecome the answered prayer they
whispered through generations.
So, under this moon, make spacefor a personal reckoning.
Where am I living out trauma,responses and calling them
personality traits?
Who am I without the struggle?
(09:33):
What becomes possible when Ilead with worthiness instead of
fear?
You are not here to survive insilence.
You are here to remember youwere always enough, even when
the world tried to convince youwere always enough, even when
the world tried to convince youotherwise.
Let this be the moment youstart treating yourself like
someone sacred.
Let this be when you say I loveme and I don't need anyone's
(09:55):
permission to grow into thatlove fully.
This moon, it's a return toorigin, but it's also a rebirth,
one where the story ends withfreedom and when the old voices
rise up again, because they willwhisper back.
That doesn't belong to me.
I lay it down with love.
I rise with truth.
This isn't just a lunar moment,it's a soul uprising and you,
(10:19):
beloved, are the revolution.
Your ancestors were waiting forFull moon rituals for
realignment.
The full buck moon isn't justfor reflection, it's for ritual.
This is a moment to pause,reset and realign with the
version of you that's growingbehind the scenes, because
growth isn't just about what yousay, it's about what you do
(10:41):
with intention, and during afull moon, intention becomes
amplified.
So, if you're ready to stepinto your strength, here are
four deeply nourishing ritualsthat speak to your spirit, your
lineage and your future.
One the antler release ritual.
This ritual is for letting goof what's heavy, what's expired
(11:04):
and what's no longer alignedwith who you're becoming.
You'll need a sheet of paper, afire-safe dish, a candle or
lighter, what to do.
Write down everything you areready to release Behaviors,
beliefs, identities, obligationsthat don't feel true anymore.
As you write, breathe deeplyand honor the emotions that rise
(11:26):
.
When you're ready, speak thisaloud I honor what was, but I no
longer carry what's not mine.
I release with love and I growwith grace.
Then burn the paper safely asthe smoke rises.
Visualize your spirit gettinglighter, your energetic antlers
regenerating.
(11:48):
Two Buck Moon Cleansing bath.
This is for washing awayspiritual residue, doubt or
emotional debris.
You'll need Epsom salt or seasalt, dried rosemary, hyssop or
mint, a splash of Florida wateror fresh lemon juice.
Optional seven drops offrankincense or lavender oil.
(12:10):
What to do?
As the bath fills, stir itclockwise and speak life into
the water.
I release confusion.
I call back my clarity.
Soak under the moonlight orimagine her energy above you and
envision anything stagnantmelting off your body.
You are not scrubbing to getclean, you are soaking to
remember who you are.
(12:33):
Three mirror affirmation ritual.
I am my own permission.
Sometimes the ritual isreclaiming your own gaze.
You'll need just a mirror andyour voice.
What to do?
Stand in front of your mirror,look deep into your eyes,
breathe Now say I see you, Ihonor your journey, you are not
(12:54):
too much, you are not behind,you are divine, you are whole
and you are allowed to growbeyond anyone's comfort,
including your own.
Repeat until your voice nolonger shakes.
Then smile, not becauseeverything is perfect, but
because you're real and presentand claiming yourself in full.
(13:15):
Fourth ancestor light andgratitude offering.
This ritual calls in yourlineage for support and wisdom.
You'll need a white candle, aglass of water, a plate with
fruit, bread or something sweet,optional, a printed or
handwritten note that says itends with me.
(13:35):
It begins with me.
What to do?
Set your altar or offeringspace, light the candle and pour
the water slowly, saying tothose who walk before me with
love I thank you.
I carry your courage, but Irelease your pain.
Guide me as I honor you, notthrough suffering, but through
(13:57):
joy, through freedom and throughpeace.
Let the candle burn safely fora while and leave the offering
overnight.
Dispose of it respectfully thenext day.
These rituals are more thanpractices.
They are declarations.
You are telling your spirit Iam no longer surviving, I am
aligning.
I am becoming who I was alwaysmeant to be.
(14:18):
You don't need perfection, youneed presence, you need
permission, and both are alreadyinside you.
Relationship check in under thebuck moon.
Don't confuse connection withalignment.
The buck moon doesn't ask ifyou love them.
It asks if loving them stillhonors the truth of who you're
(14:40):
becoming.
You're becoming the full buck.
Moon doesn't play withillusions, it pierces them.
It shows you what you've beenavoiding, denying or settling
for, and it brings it all to thesurface.
That includes yourrelationships, whether romantic,
platonic or familial.
And I want you to hear meclearly this moon isn't trying
(15:02):
to take anything from you.
It's trying to show you whatyou've outgrown so you can
either rise together or partwith peace.
Let's slow this down.
A lot of people get anxiousduring full moons.
It's not just the energy, it'swhat's being revealed.
Things start to feel unsettled,conversations feel more urgent.
Distance becomes more obvious.
(15:23):
Conversations feel more urgent.
Distance becomes more obvious.
It's not your imagination, it'sthe energy.
The buck moon in particular,carries the frequency of growth
after loss, which means anythingor anyone that's been stunting
your spiritual progress may nowfeel heavy, hard to ignore or
even irritating.
This is not to create fear.
It's to create awareness,because when you start to grow
(15:46):
spiritually, emotionally,energetically, you begin to see
the difference between what'snurturing your future and what's
just tied to your past.
Start with the relationship youhave with yourself.
Before we even talk about them,let's talk about you.
Are you dating, loving orstaying loyal to others at the
(16:07):
expense of your relationshipwith yourself?
Because the truth is, you teachpeople how to love you by how
consistently you honor your ownneeds.
That means, do you respect yourown emotional boundaries or do
you make excuses for beingmistreated?
Do you nourish your body, mindand spirit first?
Or do you keep saying I'mfineish your body, mind and
spirit first?
Or do you keep saying I'm finewhen you're really exhausted and
(16:28):
resentful?
Do you check in with your ownintuition before compromising
for others?
The Buck Moon says come home toyou first, because if you're
emotionally homeless withinyourself, you'll keep trying to
find shelter in others,especially those who feel
familiar to your old wounds.
(16:50):
Here's the spiritual truth.
Sometimes the person who needsto leave your relationship most
is the version of you who keepsallowing what hurts you.
So ask yourself what version ofme has been leading this
relationship and is it time tolet her rest?
If you're currently in arelationship, let's talk
evolution.
Now let's talk about yourpartner.
This moon does not care how longyou've been together.
It's not concerned with howmuch you've invested or what
(17:12):
they used to be.
It cares about one thing Isthis love helping you grow into
your highest self or helping youstay small for the sake of
keeping the peace?
That's the question.
You might feel this shift insubtle ways.
Your conversations feel moresurface level and you crave
depth.
You hesitate to share yourspiritual growth because you're
(17:34):
not sure they'll understand.
You've started tiptoeing aroundthe truth just to avoid another
argument, and for some of youit's even deeper than that.
You've stayed because you feelguilty, because you've already
given so much, because you don'twant to start over.
But the buck moon is here toremind you.
Your spirit didn't come here tosettle.
(17:54):
It came here to evolve.
If your relationship isn'tadapting to who you're becoming,
then it's suffocating the spaceyour destiny is trying to grow
into.
That doesn't always mean it'stime to walk away, but it does
mean it's time to get honest,sit down and ask what do we
actually need to heal?
What roles are we stuck playing?
(18:14):
And are we willing to growthrough the discomfort together?
Because love isn't alwayspretty, but it should always be
safe.
And when it's no longer safe tobe your full self, but it
should always be safe.
And when it's no longer safe tobe your full self, that's not
love, that's emotional arrest.
If you're single, or healing,this is your season of sacred
standards.
Being single during the buckmoon is a powerful place to be,
(18:37):
because you're not just choosingwho to love, you're choosing
what kind of love you'll neveraccept again.
This is a time for cleansingyour heart space, releasing the
soul ties that still lingerthrough text threads, voice
notes or daydreams that keeplooping in your mind.
You know the ones, the what-ifs, the unspoken goodbyes.
(18:57):
The person you stillspiritually check in on, even
though you're physically done,let it go, because every time
you entertain what alreadyproved itself to be misaligned,
you delay the arrival of theperson who's been aligned with
your healed self, not yourhurting one, and I say this with
love.
Your next relationship shouldnot require you to become
(19:20):
someone else to be loved.
Use this moon to raise yourstandards, not just in romance
but in energy.
Stop chasing people who onlycall you when they're bored.
Stop confusing emotional dramawith passion.
Stop calling yourself too muchwhen in truth they just weren't
enough.
Say it with me I will notabandon myself just to be chosen
(19:41):
.
This buck moon, it's for thehealed version of you to step
forward and demand that yournext love speak the language of
consistency, emotional safety,spiritual depth and mutual
growth.
If you're in a gray arearelationship, the time for
clarity is now.
Some of you are in thein-between.
(20:02):
You're not together but you'renot apart.
It's undefined, it's unclearand it's emotionally exhausting.
The Buckmoon energy has nopatience for situationships that
leave you questioning yourworth.
Confusion is not love, silenceis not safety and breadcrumbs
(20:23):
are not a meal.
You deserve a relationship thatshows up in the light, not one
that hides in the shadows ofconvenience.
This moon is a spiritualinvitation to choose clarity
over fantasy.
To say this limbo is drainingme.
My heart deserves full love,not part-time effort.
I refuse to be a placeholderwhile you make up your mind,
(20:44):
because what you entertain upyour mind, because what you
entertain becomes your energeticnorm and you are too sacred to
stay somewhere that's indecisiveabout you.
Journal prompts andaffirmations for relationship
Realignment Write these out.
Reflect with intention, notshrinks me.
(21:20):
I will no longer acceptsurvival-based connections.
When my soul craves divinepartnership, I release all forms
of love that require me tobetray myself.
This isn't about perfection,sis.
This is about presence.
This is about finally listeningto the quiet voice inside that
says you deserve more and it'snot too late to shift, reset or
(21:42):
choose again.
In fact, the full buck moonsays it's right on time.
So if no one's told you lately,you're allowed to change your
mind.
You're allowed to raise yourstandards, you're allowed to
choose peace over patterns andyou're allowed to make space for
the love you prayed for, evenif it means walking away from
the one you settled for.
(22:03):
Finances, purpose and groundedambition Under the Buck Moon.
Money is not just about numbers.
It's about nervous systems,narratives and the story you
tell yourself about what you'reworth.
The full Buck Moon isn't justabout emotional or spiritual
growth.
It's also a mirror reflectingyour relationship with structure
, purpose and financialalignment.
(22:26):
Because, yes, spiritualwellness is beautiful, but if
your bills are late, yourpurpose feels scattered and your
energy is drained fromemotional labor that never fills
you back up.
That's not alignment, that'sburnout dressed in devotion.
This moon brings clarity, andclarity is currency.
Let's start here what are youbuilding and is it sustainable?
(22:49):
Because the buck moon,especially when it touches
Capricorn or Aquarius energydemands a check-in around how
you're working, not just whatyou're working toward.
First, let's talk about yourrelationship with money.
You weren't born with moneyshame, you were taught it.
You were taught to surviveinstead of thrive.
(23:10):
You were taught to feel guiltyfor wanting more, especially if
you came from a background wherejust enough was the norm.
But you know what the buck moonasks.
What would your life look likeif you let go of the belief that
struggle is a rite of passage.
What if budgeting wasn't apunishment but an act of
spiritual maturity?
What if money became a partner,not a predator?
(23:32):
Money is emotional, it'senergetic, it's ancestral and
for many of us, we are breakinggenerational curses with every
dollar we choose to save, invest, tithe or spend with intention.
Ask yourself do I spend moneyto soothe my stress or support
my future?
Do I avoid looking at myaccount because I fear what it
(23:52):
reflects?
Do I believe there's enough forme, or am I still waiting for
the other shoe to drop?
The buck moon doesn't want youto hustle harder.
It wants you to build wiser.
This is your moment to stopasking can I afford it?
And start asking is thisaligned with the life I'm
creating?
Now let's talk about purposerealignment versus reinvention.
(24:17):
Purpose is one of the mostmisused words in the personal
development space.
People talk about it like it'sa career or a platform.
But your purpose isn't justwhat you do.
It's how you move, how you love, how you serve and how you rise
when life tries to knock youdown.
Your purpose doesn't have to beflashy.
(24:39):
It has to be true.
Some of you have been trying toreinvent yourself every time
life shifts.
But the Buck Moon says youdon't need to reinvent.
You need to remember.
What did your childhood selflove to do before the world told
you it didn't make money?
What problems are youpassionate about solving, even
if no one pays you for it yet?
What does your life naturallypull people toward?
(25:00):
Healing, laughter, clarity,creativity.
Your purpose might be loud orit might be quiet, but it will
always be honest.
And if you're confused, here'sthe truth the Buck Moon reminds
us of you won't find yourpurpose in performance.
You'll find it in presence.
Stop chasing trends, stopmimicking what worked for
(25:21):
someone else.
Come home to the thing thatkeeps you up at night with fire
in your chest.
That's the map.
That's the message, thefoundation.
What are you building?
This moon isn't just dreamy,it's disciplined.
It doesn't want you out heremanifesting without a blueprint.
It wants to know Where's yourstructure?
(25:41):
What's your plan?
Are your daily habits alignedwith the future you say you want
?
Let's be real.
Faith without focus is justfantasy.
If your goals don't have legs,they're just vision boards.
If your purpose doesn't havestructure, it becomes a cycle of
burnout.
And if your budget doesn'treflect your priorities, your
(26:02):
peace will always feel fragile.
This is the perfect time to sitdown and ask what are my
financial non-negotiables thisseason?
What am I building toward overthe next six months and how am I
preparing for it today?
What am I doing out of habitthat's draining me financially
or spiritually?
You don't need to do more.
You need to do what mattersmore consistently the Buck Moon
(26:22):
Rewards structure, not stress,guided reflection and journal
prompts.
Grab your journal or sit withthese out loud.
Let the answers come withhonesty.
Where in my life am I mistakingmovement for progress?
What does wealth mean to mebeyond money, and how am I
cultivating it?
If I trusted my purpose wassafe in my hands, what decision
(26:44):
would I make right now?
How can I honor the lessons myancestors taught about survival
while building a legacy rootedin joy and overflow,
affirmations for groundedambition and financial healing
Speak these under the moonlight.
Repeat until they feel likememory.
My finances are a reflection ofmy boundaries, my focus and my
(27:08):
worth.
I build with clarity.
I invest with trust.
I receive with ease.
I am not here to struggle.
I am here to steward.
My purpose makes room for meand I walk in it with humility
and power.
I honor my ancestors bycreating a life of overflow, not
just survival.
(27:29):
This moon doesn't want you toprove your value.
It wants you to embody it,whether you're revising your
business plan, paying off a bill, saying no to underpaid work or
simply believing you deserve toearn with integrity.
This is sacred work, this islegacy work, and you're not
doing it alone.
You're doing it with all theprayers that came before you and
(27:51):
all the future blessings you'reclearing the path for.
So take your time, get honestand remember the buck moon isn't
pushing you to do more.
It's reminding you to buildwhat lasts.
Moon messages and oraclereflection the moon is always
watching, not judging, notrushing, just reflecting, just
(28:11):
reminding you you are becoming,even on the days you feel broken
.
Every full moon has somethingto say, and this one, the buck
moon.
She doesn't whisper, shecommands, not through fear, but
through the sacred stillness ofyour own becoming.
The messages she brings are notfor the faint-hearted.
They're for the soul that'sbeen silently growing even when
(28:34):
no one saw, even when youweren't sure you'd make it this
far.
So I want you to pause rightnow, take a breath and receive
these moon messages channeledfrom the spirit of this sacred
lunar cycle.
Message one you are not behind,you are becoming.
There's a divine intelligencein your delays.
(28:56):
Everything that felt likedetour was actually divine
redirection.
Stop measuring your growth byother people's timelines.
Your path is not supposed tolook like theirs.
You're on ancestral time,sacred time, spirit time, and
nothing that is meant for youwill pass you by if your spirit
(29:17):
remains aligned.
This is your permission to stoprushing.
This is your invitation totrust the tempo of your becoming
.
Message two what you'rereleasing isn't failure, it's
fertilizer, the things you'vewalked away from relationships,
habits, jobs, versions ofyourself.
(29:38):
They weren't losses, they werecompost, and now your roots have
room to breathe, to spread, tostretch toward the life that's
been waiting for your alignment.
Let yourself grieve, yes, butalso let yourself celebrate,
because the very things thatonce broke your heart are now
becoming the soil.
Your new self will rise from.
(29:59):
Message three Stop trying toheal what you need to walk away
from.
Not everything is meant to befixed.
Not every connection needsclosure.
Some ties were meant to endwithout a grand finale, because
your peace is not up fornegotiation.
And every time you re-engagewhat drained you, you tell your
(30:19):
spirit I don't trust you.
Yet this moon says it's time totrust, to choose quiet over
chaos, to choose you Withoutguilt, without apology, without
explanation.
Message four your softness isnot a liability.
In a world that rewardshardness, numbness and
(30:42):
detachment, your tenderness isrevolutionary.
Don't let past pain turn youinto someone you're not.
Let your boundaries be firm,yes, but let your heart stay
open, because the divine doesn'tonly move through power, she
moves through presence, andsoftness is your birthright.
You don't have to harden toprotect yourself anymore.
(31:03):
You get to be safe and soft atthe same time.
Message five your ancestors didnot just suffer.
They dreamt, and you are theanswer to one of those dreams.
They didn't just pray forsurvival.
They prayed for laughter, forland, for love that didn't hurt,
(31:24):
for sleep without fear, for joythat didn't come with
consequence, for legacy beyondtrauma.
And you're the proof that theydidn't suffer in vain.
So take up space, live well,eat well, rest fully, laugh
loudly, dress up for no reason,say yes to pleasure.
You are the return not just oftheir power, but of their peace.
(31:52):
Moonspread, a three-cardreflection you can do tonight If

love others and how I trust thetiming of my life.
Ace, amen.
(32:59):
And so it is Final reflectionand call to action.
The moon will rise whetheryou're ready or not, but the
question is will you rise withher?
You've made it to the end ofthis journey through the Buck
Moon Portal, but this isn'treally the end.
It's the activation.
This moon came to remind you ofwhat's still inside you the
(33:20):
clarity you forgot, the strengthyou buried, the boundaries you
watered down, the dreams youpaused out of fear and now
beloved.
It's time to come back to allof it.
This is your moment to reclaimyour softness as power, your
rest as a sacred birthright,your voice as medicine, your
boundaries as divine alignment,your growth as inevitable.
(33:42):
Let the rituals be yourre-entry, let your journal be
your altar.
Let your decisions this monthspeak for your worth louder than
your words ever could.
And as you go into the rest ofthis lunar cycle, ask yourself
this one question what does itlook like to be deeply loyal to
the version of me I'm becoming?
Answer it in your prayers, inyour actions, in your
(34:06):
relationships, in your bankaccount, in your mirror.
You don't have to be perfect,you just have to be present.
You don't have to have it allfigured out.
You just have to be willing totake one step in alignment and
then another.
And if you need help, you don'thave to do this alone.

self-worth.

(01:06):
That's where the magic lives.
Welcome to Life Points withRhonda, where we talk about the
real stuff relationships,self-growth, healing and
everything in between.
I'm your host, rhonda, andtoday we're tapping into the
bold and empowering energy ofthe full buck moon.
(01:28):
This is the moon of regrowth,realignment and rising into your
strength.
If you've been feeling likesomething's got to shift, this
episode is your sign.
What is the full buck moon.
Every full moon carries its ownpersonality, its own energy and
(01:48):
its own lessons.
But the full buck moon isdifferent.
It doesn't just glow, it growls.
It signals power, progress and,most of all, potential.
Occurring each July, this moongets its name from the time of
year when male deer or bucksbegin to regrow their antlers
after shedding them in thespring.
That image alone is powerfulHorns rising from the head like
(02:13):
a crown, not for decoration, butfor defense, for identity, for
survival.
So what does that mean for you?
It means this moon is aboutrestoring your strength,
especially after a season whenyou might have felt stripped
bare.
Maybe life has challenged you,maybe your confidence took a hit
(02:35):
, maybe you've been walkingaround Spiritually bald,
vulnerable, unsure of who youare.
Now the buck moon says Stand up, reclaim your stance.
Vulnerable, unsure of who youare.
Now the buck moon says stand up, reclaim your stance, let
yourself grow back sharper,wiser and stronger than ever
before.
(02:56):
There's also a practical layerto this moon.
In the sky, this full moonusually falls in Capricorn or
Aquarius, depending on the year.
When it's in Capricorn, iturges us to look at where we
need structure, self-disciplineand responsibility.
Are your goals aligned withyour values?
Are your relationships helpingor hindering your growth?
(03:16):
Capricorn asks you to build asolid foundation, brick by brick
, and if it lands in Aquarius,the vibe shifts to revolution,
freedom and communityconsciousness.
Aquarius wants you to dream big, step outside the box and
contribute something meaningfulto the world.
But no matter the sign, onething remains true the Buck Moon
(03:40):
is about growth after loss.
It's about choosing not to staysmall just because life once
forced you to shrink.
Spiritually, this moon touchesdeep emotional layers.
It's not just about poweringthrough.
It's about aligning your powerwith your purpose.
It asks what have I beenholding on to that no longer
(04:01):
belongs to me?
What parts of myself am I readyto restore?
What do I need in order to moveforward on my terms?
When the buck moon rises, youmay feel a surge of clarity,
even discomfort, that's normal.
Growth always brings friction,but friction is also what
sharpens the blade.
So don't be surprised if thismoon stirs your spirit.
(04:22):
That's the medicine.
Let it remind you that you tooare in a cycle of shedding and
regrowth, and there is nothingsoft about that.
This moon is not here tocomfort you.
It's here to challenge you, toremember your power, the energy
of shedding and strength.
There's a sacred moment innature when something that once
served you begins to fall away,not because it was bad, but
(04:45):
because it's no longer needed.
That's what this moon teachesus.
Like the buck who sheds hisantlers to make room for
stronger ones, you too are beingcalled to release what's
outlived its season.
Let's talk about what thatreally means.
Shedding isn't glamorous.
It's not always peaceful.
Sometimes it's raw, messy anduncomfortable.
Sometimes it looks like youcrying on the floor because a
(05:08):
version of you that once keptyou safe no longer fits.
Sometimes it's breakinggenerational patterns with
trembling hands.
Sometimes it's walking awayfrom something you prayed for
because your spirit evolvedbeyond it.
But here's the truth you cannotcarry what's meant for the next
version of you while draggingthe weight of who you used to be
(05:31):
.
This full-buck moon is callingyou into alignment, into
responsibility for your own soul, into truth, and not just the
truth you tell other people, butthe one you've been avoiding in
the mirror.
This moon asks you what burdensam I still carrying that were
never mine?
What outdated identities am Istill performing to stay
(05:52):
accepted?
Where have I outgrown the room,the role, the routine?
There's a kind of strength thatcomes from knowing your worth
without waiting for others toconfirm it, from releasing
something not because you don'tlove it but because you love
yourself more.
The Buck Moon isn't about thehustle.
It's about the honest work ofletting go, of standing tall
(06:15):
after a season that tried tomake you small, of understanding
that when something falls awayit's not always a loss, it's a
spiritual renovation.
So I want you to ask yourselfwhat are you ready to shed, not
just intellectually, butspiritually, not just talk about
but walk away from and remember.
This process doesn't make youweak, it makes you wild, it
(06:39):
makes you wise, it makes youfree, ancestral healing and
self-worth activation.
There are some weights youcan't see in the mirror, but you
feel them In your chest, inyour tired decisions, in the way
you apologize for taking upspace or shrink your truth to
keep the peace.
These are not just personalhabits.
(07:02):
These are inherited patterns,spiritual muscle memory passed
down through bloodlines.
The full buck moon touches theseinvisible wounds, the ones too
many of us carry silently.
And if you've ever felt likeyou're doing everything right
but still feel stuck, you're notalone.
You're likely moving throughsomething bigger than you,
something ancestral.
(07:23):
Let's call it what it isGenerational survival.
You might not have grown up inliteral chains, but many of us
still move as if we're bound,bound by expectations, by
silence, by cycles of proving,performing and people-pleasing,
bound by shame that wasn't bornin us but lives in our family
(07:43):
story.
That shame says don't be tooloud, don't take too long, don't
dream too big, don't rest untilit hurts.
But under the full buck moon,the ancestors lean in, not to
scold you but to liberate you,because strength isn't just what
you survived.
Strength is what you choose tostop passing down.
Let me say that again Strengthis what you choose to stop
(08:06):
passing down.
This moon is sacred, not becauseit's soft, but because it's
honest.
It demands truth.
It says what do you really wantto release?
What fear has overstayed itswelcome?
What lie have you inheritedthat you're finally ready to
unlearn?
For some of us, that lie is Ihave to struggle to be valuable.
(08:27):
I can't say no or I'll loselove.
My worth is tied to how much Ido for others.
But your ancestors didn't crossoceans, endure loss, survive
bondage or carry faith throughfire, so you could just barely
get by.
They endured so you couldremember your birthright.
That birthright is wholeness,wealth, not just financial, but
(08:51):
emotional and spiritual wellness, joy, a voice that doesn't
tremble, a body that isn'tconstantly braced for impact, a
heart that is free to lovewithout betrayal.
A life that feels like yours.
And let's be clear, this isn'tabout disrespecting your lineage
, it's about elevating it,because when you heal, your
(09:13):
ancestors rise with you.
When you claim your worth, youshift timelines.
When you break patterns, youbecome the answered prayer they
whispered through generations.
So, under this moon, make spacefor a personal reckoning.
Where am I living out trauma,responses and calling them
personality traits?
Who am I without the struggle?
(09:33):
What becomes possible when Ilead with worthiness instead of
fear?
You are not here to survive insilence.
You are here to remember youwere always enough, even when
the world tried to convince youwere always enough, even when
the world tried to convince youotherwise.
Let this be the moment youstart treating yourself like
someone sacred.
Let this be when you say I loveme and I don't need anyone's
(09:55):
permission to grow into thatlove fully.
This moon, it's a return toorigin, but it's also a rebirth,
one where the story ends withfreedom and when the old voices
rise up again, because they willwhisper back.
That doesn't belong to me.
I lay it down with love.
I rise with truth.
This isn't just a lunar moment,it's a soul uprising and you,
(10:19):
beloved, are the revolution.
Your ancestors were waiting forFull moon rituals for
realignment.
The full buck moon isn't justfor reflection, it's for ritual.
This is a moment to pause,reset and realign with the
version of you that's growingbehind the scenes, because
growth isn't just about what yousay, it's about what you do
(10:41):
with intention, and during afull moon, intention becomes
amplified.
So, if you're ready to stepinto your strength, here are
four deeply nourishing ritualsthat speak to your spirit, your
lineage and your future.
One the antler release ritual.
This ritual is for letting goof what's heavy, what's expired
(11:04):
and what's no longer alignedwith who you're becoming.
You'll need a sheet of paper, afire-safe dish, a candle or
lighter, what to do.
Write down everything you areready to release Behaviors,
beliefs, identities, obligationsthat don't feel true anymore.
As you write, breathe deeplyand honor the emotions that rise
(11:26):
.
When you're ready, speak thisaloud I honor what was, but I no
longer carry what's not mine.
I release with love and I growwith grace.
Then burn the paper safely asthe smoke rises.
Visualize your spirit gettinglighter, your energetic antlers
regenerating.
(11:48):
Two Buck Moon Cleansing bath.
This is for washing awayspiritual residue, doubt or
emotional debris.
You'll need Epsom salt or seasalt, dried rosemary, hyssop or
mint, a splash of Florida wateror fresh lemon juice.
Optional seven drops offrankincense or lavender oil.
(12:10):
What to do?
As the bath fills, stir itclockwise and speak life into
the water.
I release confusion.
I call back my clarity.
Soak under the moonlight orimagine her energy above you and
envision anything stagnantmelting off your body.
You are not scrubbing to getclean, you are soaking to
remember who you are.
(12:33):
Three mirror affirmation ritual.
I am my own permission.
Sometimes the ritual isreclaiming your own gaze.
You'll need just a mirror andyour voice.
What to do?
Stand in front of your mirror,look deep into your eyes,
breathe Now say I see you, Ihonor your journey, you are not
(12:54):
too much, you are not behind,you are divine, you are whole
and you are allowed to growbeyond anyone's comfort,
including your own.
Repeat until your voice nolonger shakes.
Then smile, not becauseeverything is perfect, but
because you're real and presentand claiming yourself in full.
(13:15):
Fourth ancestor light andgratitude offering.
This ritual calls in yourlineage for support and wisdom.
You'll need a white candle, aglass of water, a plate with
fruit, bread or something sweet,optional, a printed or
handwritten note that says itends with me.
(13:35):
It begins with me.
What to do?
Set your altar or offeringspace, light the candle and pour
the water slowly, saying tothose who walk before me with
love I thank you.
I carry your courage, but Irelease your pain.
Guide me as I honor you, notthrough suffering, but through
(13:57):
joy, through freedom and throughpeace.
Let the candle burn safely fora while and leave the offering
overnight.
Dispose of it respectfully thenext day.
These rituals are more thanpractices.
They are declarations.
You are telling your spirit Iam no longer surviving, I am
aligning.
I am becoming who I was alwaysmeant to be.
(14:18):
You don't need perfection, youneed presence, you need
permission, and both are alreadyinside you.
Relationship check in under thebuck moon.
Don't confuse connection withalignment.
The buck moon doesn't ask ifyou love them.
It asks if loving them stillhonors the truth of who you're
(14:40):
becoming.
You're becoming the full buck.
Moon doesn't play withillusions, it pierces them.
It shows you what you've beenavoiding, denying or settling
for, and it brings it all to thesurface.
That includes yourrelationships, whether romantic,
platonic or familial.
And I want you to hear meclearly this moon isn't trying
(15:02):
to take anything from you.
It's trying to show you whatyou've outgrown so you can
either rise together or partwith peace.
Let's slow this down.
A lot of people get anxiousduring full moons.
It's not just the energy, it'swhat's being revealed.
Things start to feel unsettled,conversations feel more urgent.
Distance becomes more obvious.
(15:23):
Conversations feel more urgent.
Distance becomes more obvious.
It's not your imagination, it'sthe energy.
The buck moon in particular,carries the frequency of growth
after loss, which means anythingor anyone that's been stunting
your spiritual progress may nowfeel heavy, hard to ignore or
even irritating.
This is not to create fear.
It's to create awareness,because when you start to grow
(15:46):
spiritually, emotionally,energetically, you begin to see
the difference between what'snurturing your future and what's
just tied to your past.
Start with the relationship youhave with yourself.
Before we even talk about them,let's talk about you.
Are you dating, loving orstaying loyal to others at the
(16:07):
expense of your relationshipwith yourself?
Because the truth is, you teachpeople how to love you by how
consistently you honor your ownneeds.
That means, do you respect yourown emotional boundaries or do
you make excuses for beingmistreated?
Do you nourish your body, mindand spirit first?
Or do you keep saying I'mfineish your body, mind and
spirit first?
Or do you keep saying I'm finewhen you're really exhausted and
(16:28):
resentful?
Do you check in with your ownintuition before compromising
for others?
The Buck Moon says come home toyou first, because if you're
emotionally homeless withinyourself, you'll keep trying to
find shelter in others,especially those who feel
familiar to your old wounds.
(16:50):
Here's the spiritual truth.
Sometimes the person who needsto leave your relationship most
is the version of you who keepsallowing what hurts you.
So ask yourself what version ofme has been leading this
relationship and is it time tolet her rest?
If you're currently in arelationship, let's talk
evolution.
Now let's talk about yourpartner.
This moon does not care how longyou've been together.
It's not concerned with howmuch you've invested or what
(17:12):
they used to be.
It cares about one thing Isthis love helping you grow into
your highest self or helping youstay small for the sake of
keeping the peace?
That's the question.
You might feel this shift insubtle ways.
Your conversations feel moresurface level and you crave
depth.
You hesitate to share yourspiritual growth because you're
(17:34):
not sure they'll understand.
You've started tiptoeing aroundthe truth just to avoid another
argument, and for some of youit's even deeper than that.
You've stayed because you feelguilty, because you've already
given so much, because you don'twant to start over.
But the buck moon is here toremind you.
Your spirit didn't come here tosettle.
(17:54):
It came here to evolve.
If your relationship isn'tadapting to who you're becoming,
then it's suffocating the spaceyour destiny is trying to grow
into.
That doesn't always mean it'stime to walk away, but it does
mean it's time to get honest,sit down and ask what do we
actually need to heal?
What roles are we stuck playing?
(18:14):
And are we willing to growthrough the discomfort together?
Because love isn't alwayspretty, but it should always be
safe.
And when it's no longer safe tobe your full self, but it
should always be safe.
And when it's no longer safe tobe your full self, that's not
love, that's emotional arrest.
If you're single, or healing,this is your season of sacred
standards.
Being single during the buckmoon is a powerful place to be,
(18:37):
because you're not just choosingwho to love, you're choosing
what kind of love you'll neveraccept again.
This is a time for cleansingyour heart space, releasing the
soul ties that still lingerthrough text threads, voice
notes or daydreams that keeplooping in your mind.
You know the ones, the what-ifs, the unspoken goodbyes.
(18:57):
The person you stillspiritually check in on, even
though you're physically done,let it go, because every time
you entertain what alreadyproved itself to be misaligned,
you delay the arrival of theperson who's been aligned with
your healed self, not yourhurting one, and I say this with
love.
Your next relationship shouldnot require you to become
(19:20):
someone else to be loved.
Use this moon to raise yourstandards, not just in romance
but in energy.
Stop chasing people who onlycall you when they're bored.
Stop confusing emotional dramawith passion.
Stop calling yourself too muchwhen in truth they just weren't
enough.
Say it with me I will notabandon myself just to be chosen
(19:41):
.
This buck moon, it's for thehealed version of you to step
forward and demand that yournext love speak the language of
consistency, emotional safety,spiritual depth and mutual
growth.
If you're in a gray arearelationship, the time for
clarity is now.
Some of you are in thein-between.
(20:02):
You're not together but you'renot apart.
It's undefined, it's unclearand it's emotionally exhausting.
The Buckmoon energy has nopatience for situationships that
leave you questioning yourworth.
Confusion is not love, silenceis not safety and breadcrumbs
(20:23):
are not a meal.
You deserve a relationship thatshows up in the light, not one
that hides in the shadows ofconvenience.
This moon is a spiritualinvitation to choose clarity
over fantasy.
To say this limbo is drainingme.
My heart deserves full love,not part-time effort.
I refuse to be a placeholderwhile you make up your mind,
(20:44):
because what you entertain upyour mind, because what you
entertain becomes your energeticnorm and you are too sacred to
stay somewhere that's indecisiveabout you.
Journal prompts andaffirmations for relationship
Realignment Write these out.
Reflect with intention, notshrinks me.
(21:20):
I will no longer acceptsurvival-based connections.
When my soul craves divinepartnership, I release all forms
of love that require me tobetray myself.
This isn't about perfection,sis.
This is about presence.
This is about finally listeningto the quiet voice inside that
says you deserve more and it'snot too late to shift, reset or
(21:42):
choose again.
In fact, the full buck moonsays it's right on time.
So if no one's told you lately,you're allowed to change your
mind.
You're allowed to raise yourstandards, you're allowed to
choose peace over patterns andyou're allowed to make space for
the love you prayed for, evenif it means walking away from
the one you settled for.
(22:03):
Finances, purpose and groundedambition Under the Buck Moon.
Money is not just about numbers.
It's about nervous systems,narratives and the story you
tell yourself about what you'reworth.
The full Buck Moon isn't justabout emotional or spiritual
growth.
It's also a mirror reflectingyour relationship with structure
, purpose and financialalignment.
(22:26):
Because, yes, spiritualwellness is beautiful, but if
your bills are late, yourpurpose feels scattered and your
energy is drained fromemotional labor that never fills
you back up.
That's not alignment, that'sburnout dressed in devotion.
This moon brings clarity, andclarity is currency.
Let's start here what are youbuilding and is it sustainable?
(22:49):
Because the buck moon,especially when it touches
Capricorn or Aquarius energydemands a check-in around how
you're working, not just whatyou're working toward.
First, let's talk about yourrelationship with money.
You weren't born with moneyshame, you were taught it.
You were taught to surviveinstead of thrive.
(23:10):
You were taught to feel guiltyfor wanting more, especially if
you came from a background wherejust enough was the norm.
But you know what the buck moonasks.
What would your life look likeif you let go of the belief that
struggle is a rite of passage.
What if budgeting wasn't apunishment but an act of
spiritual maturity?
What if money became a partner,not a predator?
(23:32):
Money is emotional, it'senergetic, it's ancestral and
for many of us, we are breakinggenerational curses with every
dollar we choose to save, invest, tithe or spend with intention.
Ask yourself do I spend moneyto soothe my stress or support
my future?
Do I avoid looking at myaccount because I fear what it
(23:52):
reflects?
Do I believe there's enough forme, or am I still waiting for
the other shoe to drop?
The buck moon doesn't want youto hustle harder.
It wants you to build wiser.
This is your moment to stopasking can I afford it?
And start asking is thisaligned with the life I'm
creating?
Now let's talk about purposerealignment versus reinvention.
(24:17):
Purpose is one of the mostmisused words in the personal
development space.
People talk about it like it'sa career or a platform.
But your purpose isn't justwhat you do.
It's how you move, how you love, how you serve and how you rise
when life tries to knock youdown.
Your purpose doesn't have to beflashy.
(24:39):
It has to be true.
Some of you have been trying toreinvent yourself every time
life shifts.
But the Buck Moon says youdon't need to reinvent.
You need to remember.
What did your childhood selflove to do before the world told
you it didn't make money?
What problems are youpassionate about solving, even
if no one pays you for it yet?
What does your life naturallypull people toward?
(25:00):
Healing, laughter, clarity,creativity.
Your purpose might be loud orit might be quiet, but it will
always be honest.
And if you're confused, here'sthe truth the Buck Moon reminds
us of you won't find yourpurpose in performance.
You'll find it in presence.
Stop chasing trends, stopmimicking what worked for
(25:21):
someone else.
Come home to the thing thatkeeps you up at night with fire
in your chest.
That's the map.
That's the message, thefoundation.
What are you building?
This moon isn't just dreamy,it's disciplined.
It doesn't want you out heremanifesting without a blueprint.
It wants to know Where's yourstructure?
(25:41):
What's your plan?
Are your daily habits alignedwith the future you say you want
?
Let's be real.
Faith without focus is justfantasy.
If your goals don't have legs,they're just vision boards.
If your purpose doesn't havestructure, it becomes a cycle of
burnout.
And if your budget doesn'treflect your priorities, your
(26:02):
peace will always feel fragile.
This is the perfect time to sitdown and ask what are my
financial non-negotiables thisseason?
What am I building toward overthe next six months and how am I
preparing for it today?
What am I doing out of habitthat's draining me financially
or spiritually?
You don't need to do more.
You need to do what mattersmore consistently the Buck Moon
(26:22):
Rewards structure, not stress,guided reflection and journal
prompts.
Grab your journal or sit withthese out loud.
Let the answers come withhonesty.
Where in my life am I mistakingmovement for progress?
What does wealth mean to mebeyond money, and how am I
cultivating it?
If I trusted my purpose wassafe in my hands, what decision
(26:44):
would I make right now?
How can I honor the lessons myancestors taught about survival
while building a legacy rootedin joy and overflow,
affirmations for groundedambition and financial healing
Speak these under the moonlight.
Repeat until they feel likememory.
My finances are a reflection ofmy boundaries, my focus and my
(27:08):
worth.
I build with clarity.
I invest with trust.
I receive with ease.
I am not here to struggle.
I am here to steward.
My purpose makes room for meand I walk in it with humility
and power.
I honor my ancestors bycreating a life of overflow, not
just survival.
(27:29):
This moon doesn't want you toprove your value.
It wants you to embody it,whether you're revising your
business plan, paying off a bill, saying no to underpaid work or
simply believing you deserve toearn with integrity.
This is sacred work, this islegacy work, and you're not
doing it alone.
You're doing it with all theprayers that came before you and
(27:51):
all the future blessings you'reclearing the path for.
So take your time, get honestand remember the buck moon isn't
pushing you to do more.
It's reminding you to buildwhat lasts.
Moon messages and oraclereflection the moon is always
watching, not judging, notrushing, just reflecting, just
(28:11):
reminding you you are becoming,even on the days you feel broken
.
Every full moon has somethingto say, and this one, the buck
moon.
She doesn't whisper, shecommands, not through fear, but
through the sacred stillness ofyour own becoming.
The messages she brings are notfor the faint-hearted.
They're for the soul that'sbeen silently growing even when
(28:34):
no one saw, even when youweren't sure you'd make it this
far.
So I want you to pause rightnow, take a breath and receive
these moon messages channeledfrom the spirit of this sacred
lunar cycle.
Message one you are not behind,you are becoming.
There's a divine intelligencein your delays.
(28:56):
Everything that felt likedetour was actually divine
redirection.
Stop measuring your growth byother people's timelines.
Your path is not supposed tolook like theirs.
You're on ancestral time,sacred time, spirit time, and
nothing that is meant for youwill pass you by if your spirit
(29:17):
remains aligned.
This is your permission to stoprushing.
This is your invitation totrust the tempo of your becoming
.
Message two what you'rereleasing isn't failure, it's
fertilizer, the things you'vewalked away from relationships,
habits, jobs, versions ofyourself.
(29:38):
They weren't losses, they werecompost, and now your roots have
room to breathe, to spread, tostretch toward the life that's
been waiting for your alignment.
Let yourself grieve, yes, butalso let yourself celebrate,
because the very things thatonce broke your heart are now
becoming the soil.
Your new self will rise from.
(29:59):
Message three Stop trying toheal what you need to walk away
from.
Not everything is meant to befixed.
Not every connection needsclosure.
Some ties were meant to endwithout a grand finale, because
your peace is not up fornegotiation.
And every time you re-engagewhat drained you, you tell your
(30:19):
spirit I don't trust you.
Yet this moon says it's time totrust, to choose quiet over
chaos, to choose you Withoutguilt, without apology, without
explanation.
Message four your softness isnot a liability.
In a world that rewardshardness, numbness and
(30:42):
detachment, your tenderness isrevolutionary.
Don't let past pain turn youinto someone you're not.
Let your boundaries be firm,yes, but let your heart stay
open, because the divine doesn'tonly move through power, she
moves through presence, andsoftness is your birthright.
You don't have to harden toprotect yourself anymore.
(31:03):
You get to be safe and soft atthe same time.
Message five your ancestors didnot just suffer.
They dreamt, and you are theanswer to one of those dreams.
They didn't just pray forsurvival.
They prayed for laughter, forland, for love that didn't hurt,
(31:24):
for sleep without fear, for joythat didn't come with
consequence, for legacy beyondtrauma.
And you're the proof that theydidn't suffer in vain.
So take up space, live well,eat well, rest fully, laugh
loudly, dress up for no reason,say yes to pleasure.
You are the return not just oftheir power, but of their peace.
(31:52):
Moonspread, a three-cardreflection you can do tonight If
you pull tarot or oracle cards.
Try this spread under themoonlight, or simply ask
yourself these questions in yourjournal One what am I being
called to?
Release with gratitude?
This card will show you theexpired energy, mindset or soul
tie that's ready to be returnedto source.

(32:14):
This is the reminder that, evenif no one sees it yet, you are
evolving in ways that matter.
Three what divine support orunseen blessing is trying to
reach me now?
This final card brings comfort,reassurance and alignment with
your next season.
Closing prayer.
Moon of strength, buck of growth, spirit of grace, guide me into
(32:38):
alignment with all that is mine.
May I release what is not myweight.
May I rise with dignity.
May my healing ripple forwardseven generations.
May I honor the divine throughhow I care for myself, how I
love others and how I trust thetiming of my life.
Ace, amen.
(32:59):
And so it is Final reflectionand call to action.
The moon will rise whetheryou're ready or not, but the
question is will you rise withher?
You've made it to the end ofthis journey through the Buck
Moon Portal, but this isn'treally the end.
It's the activation.
This moon came to remind you ofwhat's still inside you the
(33:20):
clarity you forgot, the strengthyou buried, the boundaries you
watered down, the dreams youpaused out of fear and now
beloved.
It's time to come back to allof it.
This is your moment to reclaimyour softness as power, your
rest as a sacred birthright,your voice as medicine, your
boundaries as divine alignment,your growth as inevitable.
(33:42):
Let the rituals be yourre-entry, let your journal be
your altar.
Let your decisions this monthspeak for your worth louder than
your words ever could.
And as you go into the rest ofthis lunar cycle, ask yourself
this one question what does itlook like to be deeply loyal to
the version of me I'm becoming?
Answer it in your prayers, inyour actions, in your
(34:06):
relationships, in your bankaccount, in your mirror.
You don't have to be perfect,you just have to be present.
You don't have to have it allfigured out.
You just have to be willing totake one step in alignment and
then another.
And if you need help, you don'thave to do this alone.
