It’s that time of the month again !! …… A new fresh moon cycle. ♡
Another 28 days has past since the last new moon and it’s time for a fresh, clean slate. (Sometimes I feel I need one of those too often..lol) This is by far my favorite time to make moon water. Of course you can make moon water during any period of the moon’s beautiful cycle, but me personally…. Something about the new moon energy just feels refreshing, pure, calm, and peaceful. It’s like you get to shake off the chaos, stress, thoughts, and things you said you would do last month but failed to and start all over again !
In all seriousness though… we know that the new moon is all about beginnings, fresh starts, setting our intentions, and a great time to start new things. Take advantage of it ! The moon is now located between the earth and the sun. The energy of the new moon is good for three days before and after the actual lunification; fun fact… the moon is technically only “new” for a moment; when the sun and moon are directly aligned. Don’t be mistaken though ! Just because when it’s a new moon..there’s no moon, doesn’t mean the lunar energies aren’t beneficial and strong! (remember everythings about intention) It may not look as fasinating as the full moon does, illuminating and brightening up the night sky… but this beautiful lunar phase is just as important and should be embraced. Afterall, the moon’s not actually gone when it’s in this phase… it’s just invisble to us because the side of the moon that is being illumnated by that beauitful, and bright sun is facing away from us here on earth :).
Ahhh don’t you just love big luna? It’s amazing how she works ♡ Now let’s get into how to make moon water! I actually made a short minute video on this on my instagram page under the highlight section labled ”𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃” check it out if you’re interested ! https://www.instagram.com/simple.evolution/
New Moon - Moon Water 101.
1. Get a Jar. Any will do… plastic, glass… anything with a lid really ! Especially if you’re going to place yours outside.
(Which I reccomend)
2. Fill your jar with water. It can be tap water, filtered water, bottled water… whatever. Just keep in mind what techniques and things you’ll be using your moon water for. Just in case you want to do something like add it in your tea and you don’t want to drink tap water !
3. Get clear and think about what your intentions/manifestations are for this new moon cycle (month). It doesn’t need to be anything fancy. Just one or a few things like “Self love”, “Confidence”, “Positivity”, etc.. *Tip* try to have your intentions match the energy of the new moon. For instance… it would be better to save intentions like “release”, “harvest”, or “collect” for the full moon. Since those keywords correlate more with the full moon energy rather than the new moon energy.
4. Write your intentions/manifestations down on a piece of paper. Don’t just write it mindlessly… add some emotion to it and really feel the energy behind your intentions. ✨
5. Tape/stick your paper onto your jar. The bottom, the side… doesn’t matter ☺︎
6. Speak your intentions into the water. Yes actually speak to your water ! No you are not crazy! It has been proven that when you intentionally focus a thought, emotion, or word/phase towards water.. it changes it’s molecular structure. So make sure you do this when your energy/mood is good, and you’re able to radiate a positive tone/vibration. ☼
7. Close the lid of your jar and wait until dark/night. ☽
8. Once the night has approached, place your jar outside under the moon. ✨ You can always just place it on a window still or some place where the lunar energy is able to reach your jar; but like I said earlier… I personally feel outside is best !
9. Pick your jar up before dawn breaks or first thing in the morning ! Once the sun touches your jar… you’re now incorporting yang energy into your moon water instead of pure yin. Which isn’t necessarily bad but the point of moon water is to capture pure yin energy. (You can use the yin/yang energy to your advantage further on in your moon water making journey) but for now… try to stick with just yin !
10. Tada !! Congratulations !! You made moon water ! Now store it away in a dark place after each use. (Perserve the yin) Yes it seems so simple, and that’s because it is. It’s meant to be simple. ☺︎ Just remember it’s all about intention and the energy you put into it… that’s where the magick lies !
Things to Do With Your Moon Water !
Use it in your essenital oil diffuser. This is always my go to and probably what I use my moon water for the most ! I always like to make sure to add in a nice oil with it too that will only enhance the energy of the moon water. Like ”detox”, “passion”, “de-stress”, or things like “buisness” oil !
Use it to make yourself some tea ! ☕︎
Use it in your bath water ! This is another one where you can then add some essenital oils in your bath water or surround your tub with candles of intent to only enhance the energy even more !
You can even give it to your pets to drink ! Haha or you yourself. Drink it plain like some cold water! Just make sure to keep speaking positively to it ! your words and tone matter.
Cleanse your room/home with it.
Water your plants with it!
Get as creative as you would like, there are no rules or limitations! Just as long as you keep speaking positively to your water and focus on your intent ! Haha. Seriously tho, that’s the only rule. Have fun and get to manifesting/creating 🌚
Seeya the next trip around the moon 🌚
