Intentions from grace

On the last full moon of last year, I crossed paths with someone who hated me and they went out of their way to display their bitterness and resentment towards me. After I'd processed the initial shock and hurt of that scene, I was filled with compassion and concern for them. I realized that they were still very much sad, scared and alone. I know that bullies are always broken-hearted. Because I'd already forgiven them and myself for our mistakes, all that was left in me for them was grace.
That night, I wrote down what I wanted to say to that person and now these are my favorite full moon intentions.
Feel free to play with the wording. Maybe you’ve like to change the pronouns. Whatever works. I hope they serve you well.

May this moon illuminate what is right and true within you.
May you remember that you are pure light and be reminded of your inherent beauty and intrinsic value.
You are deserving of love, joy and peace.
May you realize, accept and believe in your worthiness and purpose.
May you give yourself permission to experience and embody unconditional love.
May you be freed from all the things that occult your truth.
May you release all the attachments that hinder your self-expression.

May you stop being afraid.
May you find comfort and safe spaces to heal from all the things that keep you from yourself.
May you understand that you are not your mistakes, misfortune or failures.
I want you to know that you are not your trauma, shame or fear. You are not your ego.
May you discover radical acceptance and may you start with self.
I pray you find the courage to surrender.
I hope you reconnect with your inner child and commit to loving her, fiercely.
I hope you quickly learn that you are enough and have always been.

May your suffering end.
May you be freed from the cycles of fear, lack and pain. I am so sorry for the ways I've hurt you.
May you be healed from the trauma myself and others may have caused or triggered. You never deserved to be hurt by those you loved.
May you be blessed with an abundance of every good thing.
May you be gently guided to the truth that you are not all the things you were taught to endure.
You are so much more than this small, shallow life they've forced you to shrink into- more than your depression, anxiety and illness.
You are more and you are worthy.

I love you.
