Luckily, we can tell you what full moon water is, how to make it and how to use it in your spiritualism routine.
Those who shape their lives around the moon and its phases will know how important its control over us is. Many people believe that it can affect how will feel, tell us things about our future and even define us. So, it’s not surprising that there’s a want to get as much of its effects as possible. A great way to get the most out of it is through full moon water.
What Is Full Moon Water?
Moon water is water that has been left out in the moonlight to charge in its energy. This is typically done during a full moon when its energy and power are at its peak, however, it can be done when the moon is almost full.
A big no-no of creating moon water is doing it during a lunar eclipse. This is power the energy of an eclipse overpowers that of the full moon and can have a negative impact on the water. The moon already has a connection to water through its impact on the tides, yet this can be amplified.
How To Make It
If you’ve been inspired by the January wolf moon and want to prepare for the next full moon, then here is how to make moon water.
First, you need to decide what you intend to use the water for. Essentially, if it’s to consume then make sure that it is drinking water.
Your moon water can be as complicated as you want it to be. It’s recommended that use youse some cleansing herbs and essential oils. Lavender, mugwort and rosemary are great options due to their connection to the moon and the positive, relaxed energy they give off. Others also use crystals when making their moon water, but this is optional.
Once you’ve gathered your ingredients, you’ll want to cleanse the jar/bottle you’ll be storing the water. You can do this by using smoke from burning your herbs, coating the inside in essential oils, or just rubbing the leaves of the herbs on the inside. Now your container is prepared, you can add your water. It would also be at this point that you would add any herbs or oils that you want to marinate in the water.
Importantly, you have to leave your water outside to bask in the full moonlight. You’ll want to do this when its light is the brightest and most powerful. However, even if you can’t see the moon then its energy will still be present and the water will charge.
Once the water has bathed in the moon’s energy, you can collect it.
How Do You Use Moon Water?
There is no strict way to use full moon water, as long as you incorporate it into your spiritual routine.
People believe that the moon’s power is associated with renewal, cleansing and intention. So, use your moon water where you need more of this energy in your life. If it’s within yourself, then you can drink or bathe in it. It could be for your house or the people in it. In that case, you can spray it around your home. If your intentions are more nature-focused, then use it to water your plants or in a vase.
It’s all about your intentions and where you want to focus it’s energy. There is no wrong answer, as long as you feel as if you are putting it to good use and benefiting from its effects.
Next time there is a full moon, use it to your advantage and harness the energy you believe it. Remember, it will only work if you believe and have intention.
