Moon Phases & Helpful

Tips🌚📝♓︎

𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕸𝖔𝖔𝖓 𝕮𝖞𝖈𝖑𝖊𝖘:

𝙽𝚎𝚠 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌕

Keywords: New Beginnings, Dreaming, Setting Intentions, Journaling, Fresh Starts.

Zodiac: Aries ♈︎, Sagittarius ♐︎

What Google Says: Since new moons happen once a month and signify the beginning of a cycle, you can think of them as a cosmic reset. The new moon is an ideal time to set intentions and goals that you'll develop as the moon waxes toward fullness. Connecting to these lunar energies can provide grounding and a sense of direction. If you performed a full moon ceremony, your heart chakra is aligned and open for a new beginning. From a spiritual standpoint, the new moon is the perfect time to start a new project. Your energy from the last lunar cycle has been cleansed, giving you a spiritually clean slate. This low-light phase can manifest as low energy for us. We may feel tired, introspective, and ready to indulge in some much-needed introvert time.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The new moon marks the beginning of a cycle. It’s a quiet time for introspection and looking deep within yourself to learn what you want to focus on and manifest for the duration of the cycle. This is known as setting your intention.

On the new moon, find a quiet space to sit in silence and connect with yourself. Focus in on what your desiring at this moment and ponder what will help you achieve or fulfill that desire.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

What will bring me more joy, love, and happiness in my life?

What can I change or commit to in order to bring it into fruition?

My intention for this cycle is:

𝚆𝚊𝚡𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙲𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚎𝚗𝚝 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌖

Keywords: Planning, Taking Action, Practical Steps Towards Goals, Manifestation, Hustle.

Zodiac: Taurus ♉︎, Capricorn ♑︎

What Google Says: The waxing crescent moon encourages positivity and faith, so even the most steadfast pessimists may be more likely to leap without a net during this phase. Of course, the moon shouldn't take the blame for completely reckless behavior. The Waxing Crescent moon phase is when we first see the new moon illuminated by the sun. This is a clear example of a shift and change, and this moon phase also presents us with an opportunity to create change in our own lives. 'Waxing' means that the illuminated portion of the Moon is increasing. In the waxing crescent phase, only a crescent-shaped sliver is visible to us. After relaxing, recharging, and reflecting in the New Moon, you're ready to go forth with new light and added energy.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The waxing crescent phase can be seen in the night sky as a small sliver of light. This is a time of fresh energy as we begin to water the seeds of our intentions that we planted during the new moon!

Begin thinking about the path towards fulfilling your intention. Declare to yourself that what you desire is already on its way to you. Be with these thoughts. Feel them deep inside your body.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

Get excited! How does it feel to imagine receiving what you’re desiring?

How can you incorporate those feelings into your daily practice?

What fresh new ideas and energy do you want to incorporate this cycle?

𝙵𝚒𝚛𝚜𝚝 𝚀𝚞𝚊𝚛𝚝𝚎𝚛 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌗

Keywords: Perseverance, Energy Boost, Take Action, Difficulty Concentrating, Solving Problems, Tough Decisions, Handling Crisis, Mending, Fixing Mistakes.

Zodiac: Gemini ♊︎, Aquarius ♒︎

What Google Says: It is determined to get from where it is now to where it finally wants to be - the full moon. Hence, many people see it as a good time to think about becoming stronger and more adept in the tasks that they need to perform to succeed. In the first quarter, we see what appears to be the right half of the Moon. This balance of light and shadow reflects the obstacles you'll start to encounter as you bring your intentions to life. Go with the flow of life – embrace the yeses and takes the no's as a signal for redirection. The first quarter moon phase is an opportune time to check in on yourself and the progress you have made. This is the phase in which your intentions will begin to establish themselves. Before performing any ritual, it's a good idea to clean and neaten the space you plan to perform it in.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The moon has reached its first quarter of the way around the Earth. It is half illuminated and half shadowed. This is a time of strength, dedication, and unwavering energy.

Get clear on the objectives that honor your intention and prioritize them. Take time to look closely at the challenges you face. Use discernment to understand which of these obstacles you need to avoid or push straight through.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

What inspired actions related to your intention are you ready to take?

What challenges are blocking your path towards fulfilling your intention?

How will you discern between what is hard and what doesn’t serve you?

𝚆𝚊𝚡𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙶𝚒𝚋𝚋𝚘𝚞�� 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌘

Keywords: Reflection, Rewriting, Editing, Grounding, Balance, Contemplate, Solitude, Endurance.

Zodiac: Leo ♌︎

What Google Says: The waxing gibbous phase signals redirection, adjustment, and flexibility. Your plans are being challenged, and your patience is being tested. The waxing gibbous moon, therefore, is the phase that immediately precedes the full moon - a time of abundance, completion, fertility and transformation. It's the run-up to everything that you hope to achieve and accomplish in your life. It is the sprouting growth of the seeds you planted during the new moon as you clarify and breathe life into the intentions you named. The waxing moon is a good time to get motivated, commit to what you are building, and put your intentions into action.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The waxing gibbous is the final phase leading up to the peak of the full moon. It offers us a few final chances to take action towards our intention.

Things should start to feel like they’re aligning and coming into form. Though it can also be a time of uncertainty and doubt. If that’s the case, trust in your intention and follow what feels good. Your patience and persistence will take you exactly where you need to go. Even if it's not where you expected.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

What final actions or communications feel exciting to take?

Where do you feel uncertainty and doubt coming up in your life?

How can you release control over a specific outcome and trust the process?

𝙵𝚞𝚕𝚕 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌑

Keywords: Releasing Project, Illuminate, Reveal, Truth, Celebration, Gratitude, Be Present, Completion.

Zodiac: Cancer ♋︎, Pisces ♓︎

What Google Says: The Moon represents the physical as well as the emotional body. The full Moon is a time to be receptive, to take the light and awareness of spirit into your emotional and physical body. Spiritually speaking, that opposition — between yin and yang, light and dark — makes for a potent time for surrender and a heightened sense of emotionality. As such, full moons are synonymous with closure and endings; of cycles, habits, relationships. There does seem to be a link between the phases of the moon and changes in symptoms of bipolar disorder. There's also some evidence that a full moon can lead to less deep sleep and a delay in entering into REM sleep. In addition, some studies have shown a slight change in cardiovascular conditions during a full moon.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The moon has reached its peak illumination as a big, bright, beautiful orb in the sky. This is the most exciting and energetically packed phase of the cycle!

Take time to celebrate yourself and your hard work thus far. Keep in mind, everything is amplified during the full moon. You may feel extra emotional or have peak creative breakthroughs. Whatever the case is, be gentle on yourself and embrace the feelings that come through with gratitude.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

List all the magical ways you can celebrate your progress:

What emotions or creative breakthroughs are coming up? [just acknowledge]

What is no longer serving you? How can you thank & release them?

𝚆𝚊𝚗𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙶𝚒𝚋𝚋𝚘𝚞𝚜 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌒

Keywords: Helping/ Supporting Others, Reflecting, Sharing Ideas/Advice, Gratitude, Heart Opening, Creativity.

Zodiac: Virgo ♍︎

What Google Says: It's at this point that the moon is more than one half illuminated but not fully and is constantly decreasing. Spiritually, it is time to get rid of some of those bad habits, stresses, and any negative thinking that you have been experiencing. Waning refers to the decreasing of the moon's light, inviting us to surrender and soften. The waning moon is a time to renew, withdraw, and rest. You may lean into this phase intuitively, or you may have to consciously carve out the time to pause if you tend to be constantly on the go. The Waning Gibbous Moon sees the Moon decreasing in illumination once more and signifies gratitude. Themes of gratitude, enthusiasm, and sharing are strong. This phase is open yourself to feelings of love and abundance as you see the outcomes of your previously set goals and intentions.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The moon now begins its descent in this Waning Gibbous phase. Give yourself a chance to rest after the intense emotions a full moon can bring up.

This phase is all about opening up and receiving with immense gratitude. Take note of the opportunities that present themselves. Even if they’re not directly related to your intention, notice what is surrounding you. This is also a great time to share your progress with trusted loved ones.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

Which opportunities have been presented to you (related to your intention or not)?

What are you grateful for today? Expand that gratitude throughout your entire body.

Who can you reflect with? How does it feel to share what you learned?

𝚃𝚑𝚒𝚛𝚍 𝚀𝚞𝚊𝚛𝚝𝚎𝚛 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌓

Keywords: Reconnecting With Spirit, Consciousness, Source Energy, Grounding, Letting Go, Release, Low Energy, Recuperate, Solitude, Reflection, Meditate, Set Boundaries.

Zodiac: Libra ♎︎

What Google Says: Exactly half of the Moon is illuminated and the other half is shadowed. We will see the opposite side than the First Quarter Moon. This moon phase signifies forgiveness. The Third Quarter moon is the final stage of the lunar cycle. Your New Moon intentions are completing their journey. After the peak energy of the Full Moon, the Moon is losing light and waning in energy. It is a time to empty yourself, release and allow the universe to take over and reflect back on what you have learned from your experience in the lunar cycle.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

This marks the last quarter, where the moon is half lit on the left side. Now that we’ve spent time receiving with an open heart, this phase invites us to acknowledge all the help and support we’ve recieved along our journey.

But don’t let this feel like work - it should be joyful and nourishing! Find your unique expression of giving back, whatever it looks like for you. This is also a good time for deepening your awareness and daily reflection on your journey.

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

What receiving techniques from the last phase were most impactful for you?

Who were the people who helped and supported you this cycle?

How can you give back in a way that feels joyful and authentic?

𝚆𝚊𝚗𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙲𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚎𝚗𝚝 𝙼𝚘𝚘𝚗 🌙

Keywords: Resting, Dreaming, Spiritual, Nourishment, Intuition, Instincts, Senses, Rituals, Recharge, Self-Care.

Zodiac: Scorpio ♏︎

What Google Says: The half moon, or sickle of the moon, also waning and waxing moon, is a sign of fertility, related to life and death, and thus a popular symbol in many religions. It pinpoints changing seasons, ebb and tide (and related inundations as harbingers of fertility), and the feminine menstrual cycle. Specifically, a crescent moon was known to symbolize womanhood, intuitiveness, psyche, and empowerment. Maybe all the things that the goddess Selene might have wished for us. The things that would inspire us each day to live our best lives. In the waning crescent phase, we see only a sliver of the illuminated Moon. The light is almost gone and you're ready for rest and recuperation. Surrender to the universe and take some time to align yourself with the energy of calm.

𝙼𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝙸𝚗𝚏𝚘:

The moon is shining its last sliver of light during this Waning Crescent phase. This is a perfect time to reflect on the whole lunar cycle and restore your energy.

Reread the intention you set during the New Moon. Sit with it during a peaceful meditation. Think about everything that’s come through for you and how you’ve grown. Allow your body, mind, and soul to rest and restore it’s energy in preparation for the next cycle to come!

𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚊𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐:

What did this practice teach you about yourself and your connection to the moon?

What were the range of feelings you felt during the entirety of the moon cycle?

What are you feeling drawn to focus on for the upcoming moon cycle?
