A rare blue moon invites deep emotional healing, forgiveness, and renewal. Join Sunday Times best-selling author and Moonology founder Yasmin Boland for a powerful weekend of moonology, astrology, chanting, community, and sacred ritual.

Using Yasmin's formula for forgiveness, you learn how to release the past, let go of old stories, and open your heart to new beginnings. Through astrology teachings, journaling, oracle guidance, and a powerful outdoor blue moon fire ceremony, you experience the power of release and the freedom that follows.

As Yasmin writes in her Moonology Diary, "Use the Blue Moon energy around now to achieve that one thing you thought you never would. Better yet, use it to forgive that one person you never thought you could." With Mercury aligned with Chiron, heartfelt communication and reconciliation flow more easily. When you forgive and move on, you open new pathways for your future to unfold.

No prior experience in astrology or Moonology is required, only an open heart and a willingness to release, renew, and begin again. This retreat is for anyone ready to release the past and step into a lighter, freer future. It's ideal for spiritual seekers, astrology lovers, and those who wish to experience forgiveness as a pathway to personal transformation.

This program begins Friday at 7:00 p.m. and ends Sunday at noon.

Meals and rest periods are built into the weekend, allowing time for reflection and connection.

Daily Overview

Friday, May 29 – Arrival & Opening
Arrive between 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. to settle in and connect with the group before the opening circle. The evening sets the tone for the weekend with a chakra-clearing chant, an introduction to the blue moon's energy, and Yasmin's teaching on the formula for forgiveness as a tool for karmic release.

Explore where this blue moon falls in your personal chart, journal through Yasmin's Three Things to Forgive exercise, and share oracle messages in pairs. The evening closes with the chant Om Namo Narayani, sealing your intention to release and renew.

Saturday, May 30 – Rituals & Radical Release
Begin with morning chanting and meditation to align with the blue moon energy. Through the day, you explore lunar teachings, guided astrology work, and group rituals designed to help you clear old energy and step into freedom. Sessions include the Power of the Blue Moon, your personal chart focus, the 12 Moon Angels and Goddesses, and creation of moon water and crystals for intention-setting.

In the afternoon, apply Yasmin's formula for forgiveness through journaling and partner sharing, supported by the healing Mercury–Chiron alignment. The day culminates in a powerful Blue Moon fire ceremony with chanting, cord-cutting, and burning of forgiveness letters beneath the night sky.

Sunday, May 31 – Integration & Renewal
Morning begins by gathering moon-charged water and crystals and offering a gratitude chant. Yasmin guides reflections on what has been released and how to maintain the forgiveness practice beyond the retreat. You learn simple ways to continue honoring the moon throughout the year, explore where the next new moon will fall in your chart, and journal about gratitude and new intentions. 

The retreat concludes with a closing circle, oracle reflections, the chant Om Namo Narayani, and the affirmation "I forgive. I release. I am free."

The above schedule is subject to change at the discretion of the faculty.

Please bring a journal and pen for writing exercises and reflections, a jar for making moon water together, crystals if you love them, and a shawl or blanket for comfort during meditation and outdoor rituals.
