Theme: "Sacred Balance: Healing, Harmony & Heart Truth"
How Soulful Sundays Works
Every fortnight, Soulful Sundays offers a steady rhythm—a chance to pause, reflect, and move in step with the moon. Each guide is intuitively designed to help you align with the energy of the new and full moons, through intentional practices that unfold over several days.
These rituals encourage clarity, calm, and emotional resilience. And when combined with ceremonial cacao, they become something deeper—opening the heart, anchoring your awareness, and transforming simple moments into sacred ones.
This isn’t just about ritual—it’s a gentle return to your natural rhythm.
Aligning with the Libra Full Moon
On Sunday, 13 April 2025, at 10:22 AM AEST, we welcome the Full Moon in Libra, a lunation that illuminates the delicate dance between self and other, independence and connection. This Full Moon is particularly potent, as it coincides with Venus, Libra’s ruling planet, stationing direct, and forms aspects with Chiron, the wounded healer, and Mars, the planet of action.
Libra, the sign of balance, beauty, and relationships, invites us to reflect on our partnerships, our sense of fairness, and the harmony within our lives. With the Sun in Aries opposing the Libra Moon, we’re called to find equilibrium between our personal desires and our relationships with others. This Full Moon offers an opportunity to heal relational wounds, release patterns that no longer serve us, and step into a more authentic expression of love and connection.
Themes of the Libra Full Moon:
Healing Relationships: Address and mend emotional wounds, fostering deeper connections.
Restoring Balance: Evaluate areas of imbalance in your life and take steps toward equilibrium.
Embracing Authenticity: Align your actions with your true self, especially within partnerships.
Cultivating Inner Peace: Engage in practices that promote serenity and self-love.

Libra Full Moon Ritual: Harmony & Healing
This ritual is best performed on the evening of Saturday, 12 April or the morning of Sunday, 13 April, when the moon’s light is full and its energy most magnetic. Let it be a moment of deep presence—where the mind settles, the heart opens, and clarity can gently rise to the surface.
Ritual Steps
1. Prepare Your Space
• Light a white candle to invite clarity and balance
• Set out your journal, a pen, and a warm cup of Tsokolate Regulate
• Find a quiet, comfortable place to sit and reflect
2. Ground & Centre
• Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths
• Visualise roots growing from your body into the earth, anchoring you in calm and steadiness
• Place one hand on your heart and say:
“I return to my centre. I release what is not mine to carry.”
3. Reflect & Release
• In your journal, write down any relational patterns, emotional loops, or imbalances you’re ready to let go of—this could be over-giving, people-pleasing, unspoken resentment, or unmet needs
• Gently acknowledge what these patterns taught you, and express gratitude for the growth they’ve invited
4. Cacao Integration
• Hold your cacao with intention—breathe in its aroma, and feel its warmth in your hands
• As you sip, visualise the soothing properties of Tsokolate Regulate softening tension, calming the heart, and steadying your inner world
• Let the cacao support you in integrating your reflections and settling into a more harmonious state
5. Symbolic Release
• Tear or burn your written reflection (safely), seeing the energy of those patterns being released
• If outdoors, you may wish to return the ashes to the earth, symbolising the clearing of old dynamics and the planting of new intentions
6. Close with Gratitude
• Take a final sip of your cacao and sit in stillness for a few moments
• Thank yourself for showing up, for being honest, and for choosing balance
• Extinguish the candle, knowing that the shift has already begun
Reflection Prompts After the Eclipse
Take some time in the days following the Full Moon to sit with these questions. Let your answers rise intuitively—no pressure, no perfection, just presence. This is a moment to listen deeply, reconnect with your centre, and gently restore your sense of balance.
What insights emerged about my relationships during this Full Moon?
How can I maintain balance between my needs and those of others?
Bringing It All Together
This Libra Full Moon brings with it a breath of recalibration—a chance to pause and feel into the truth of who you are, how you love, and what you’re ready to shift. In a world that moves fast, this moment is your reminder that balance isn’t static—it’s a practice. One that begins inside.
Through these gentle rituals, reflections, and the heart-opening support of ceremonial cacao, may you find peace in the process, clarity in the contrast, and connection in the quiet spaces in between.
Your ritual awaits. 🌕
