A full moon represents cycles of completion, illumination, and release. It’s a beautiful time to slow down and turn inward with gratitude and self-reflection.

Journaling during the full moon is a powerful practice to process emotions, acknowledge growth, and set intentions.

Whether you want to release old patterns, give thanks, create vision boards, or manifest dreams, full moon journaling can help you reflect, dig deeper, and find clarity.

For a more guided experience, I’ve put together a list of 100 full moon journal prompts for you to explore.

Why Should You Journal During the Full Moon?

The full moon is often seen as a time of heightened emotion and energy, making it an excellent opportunity to channel those feelings.

Journaling during the full moon allows you to:

Look back on your growth and progress
Release what no longer serves you
Gain clarity on your emotions
Set intentions for the coming lunar cycle
Deepen your connection to yourself and the universe

How to Use These Full Moon Journal Prompts

You don’t have to use all 100 prompts. Pick one or two that speak to you. You don’t need to answer them all during the same full moon.

Set a calming atmosphere—light a candle, dim the lights, and sit somewhere comfortable where you won’t be disturbed. Write freely without overthinking or worrying about grammar. If you get stuck on a prompt, move on and come back later. Use this as a guided meditation and answer from the heart.

You can also repeat prompts month after month to track how your answers evolve. Keep your full moon journal entries in a binder or folder, and over time you’ll have a powerful record of your growth and transformation.

Closing Thoughts

Journaling on the full moon is a beautiful way to honor the moon’s magic, reflect on your journey, and set intentions for the cycles ahead.

The full moon reminds us that life is not about rushing to a destination but honoring the process and the cycles we move through. Every phase of the moon teaches us something about release, illumination, and new beginnings.

Save the pin for later
