What phases of the moon should I collect moon water and what do they mean?

There are four principal lunar phases and 2 lesser ones and we will elaborate on when it is said you should collect water in each one.

New Moon Phase

The new moon phase is when the moon is not visible to the naked eye. This means that no matter where you look, there isn't any moonlight present in the sky at this time. Drinking water during this phase of the moon is said to increase personal strength and improve overall health.

Waxing Moon Phase

The waxing moon phase can also be called the first quarter phase too. This moon phase is when the moon starts to become visible in the sky. You can most easily see moonlight in this phase during twilight, just after the sun goes down. This moon water is said to increase personal strength and improve overall health.

Full Moon Phase

This moon phase is when the moon appears full in the sky. This moon water can be used for good luck, love, protection against evil forces and to improve health.

Waning Moon Phase

The waning moon phase can also be called the third-quarter moon phase too. This moon phase occurs after the moon is full in the sky. In this moon phase, moonlight appears to fade and is not as bright when compared to the full moon phase. This moon water is said to bring good luck, love, protection against evil forces, and improve health.

Moon water ritual

There are many ways to use moon water. One way is to create a moon water ritual. Halley shares one option below.

Supplies

jar or bottle

crystals and other sacred items

pen and paper

incense or smudge stick

singing bowl or bell (optional)

Steps

Gather supplies, like your jar, crystals, sacred items, and pen and paper.

Cleanse the space with incense, sage, singing bowls, or a bell.

Fill your jar with water, preferably distilled or spring.

Place your jar in a safe location where it will get direct moonlight.

Arrange crystals and sacred items around your jar.

Speak your intention for your water out loud.

Write down your intention for your water and place it under the jar.

Cover the jar and leave overnight.

Cleansing the space before you begin will clear unwanted energies from your surroundings and prevent your water from absorbing them, 

Placing crystals and sacred objects can help you tune into spiritual energies.

If you aren’t intending on drinking the water, you can place the crystals in the jug,

Some crystals are highly toxic when immersed in water. Never drink crystal-infused water without doing your research first to ensure the crystals you’re using are safe to drink.

Then, set your intention.

It can be as simple as “This water cleanses and purifies all it touches” or it can be as complicated as you wish, but it’s important to set an intention here for the water you are creating

After speaking and writing down your intention, place the paper under the jar. Cover it with a cloth and leave it for the night.

In the morning, your moon water is ready to use.

I suggest using it straight from the jar or pouring it into smaller bottles for later use. You can use spray bottles, roller bottles, or small jars.

EARS While the superstition of burning ears dates back years, there is no real indication of where it came from.

If your left ear itches, someone is speaking ill of you. Pinch your ear, and the person talking of you will bite his own tongue.
