INSIDE: An incredible relationship exists between the moon and all of the water here on earth, whether it's in the ocean or in our bodies. Let's discover what there is to know about moon-charged water and its many benefits and uses.

The command and effects of a full moon on earth have been common knowledge for as long as we can remember. It's far away, but still applies an extremely powerful control over our lives.

The ebb and flow of the oceans tides are affected by the phases of the moon. Its influence on gravity makes what we call a “tidal” energy. But high and low tides aren’t the only visible influence of the moon on earth.

The moon also has other important and unknown secret effects on our lives and actions. Those that came before us knew that no man or woman here on earth is untouched by the moon and its otherworldly powers.

Let's discover how to use water to capture that immense power and put it to good use in moon-charged water...

What is Moon-Charged Water? 

Water is very versatile; it changes according to different types of energy and takes various forms due to extreme temperature changes. Charging water with moonlight gives it an entirely new set of beneficial traits.

Moon-charged water is water that has been super-charged with the energies of the previous night's full Moon. It is commonly made under the light of a full moon, but can be made with the new moon or any other important lunar occurrence, whether the moon is fully visible or not.

The moon’s healing energy is ever present, even when it isn’t fully visible. Just think about the moon’s constant effect on the rising and lowering tides of the ocean, even during times when it can’t be seen.

The strength of your moon-charged water will be wholly dependent on the phase and also the sign of the Moon at the time of charging. Since a full moon brings the most powerful energy for manifestation, that's widely considered the best time for charging.

What Are the Benefits of Moon-Charged Water?

There are many benefits of moon-charged water and it doesn't have to involve drinking it. It can be used in other ways as well, such as a room spray or even a facial cleanser. Read on for various ways to make use of this special lunar water.

Benefits for Women

One of the most common ways moon-charged water can be utilized by women is to help get their menstrual cycle back in sync and on track. According to Ayurveda, the complete 28-day cycle of the earth’s moon and a woman’s natural 28-day full cycle are very closely related for good reason.

For those women attempting to regulate their cycles who’d rather not use medications with too many known and unknown side effects, using the power of the moon is a more holistic and natural way to aid in these efforts.

Drinking moon-charged water first thing in the morning on an empty stomach can have many relaxing and calming attributes that help to balance our internal elements. This makes it beneficial for women when it comes to correcting hormonal imbalances, such as PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome).

Emotional Balance

We have all heard the stories about how emotions run high and out of control during the full moon. It turns out that there is more truth to this myth that fiction. That's because our mental health and moods are directly related to the lunar cycles.

A 15-year study was done in Florida to track and analyze the effects of a full moon on violent crimes, and it was found that there was always a sharp increase in violence during the full moon.

A related study done in New York found that the highest instances of assault, robbery, suicides and car theft were on nights with a full moon.

Even though the full moon is usually connected to violent or angry behavior, the truth is that the full moon only enhances whatever emotions are already present. If there was a similar study to track the occurrences of passionate and loving acts during full moons, there’s no doubt they would also peak during the full moon.

The effects of the full moon aren’t nearly all negative. Moon-charged water has calming properties that work hand in hand with meditation and intention. Focusing on introspection, re-evaluation and self-examination with your moon-charged water during this time can utilize the power of the full moon for fully positive purposes, rather than negative.

Other Uses for Moon-Charged Water

As we mentioned earlier, drinking it isn’t the only way to utilize the power of moon-charged water.

Water charged by the light of the moon is thought to increase the skin’s glow when used as part of a daily facial treatment routine. The moon-charged water is said to enhance the glow of the skin in the same way that the moonlight glows.

Cleansing your crystals is also an excellent way to take advantage of some extra water that you may have left over. You can also use it to stimulate growth and protect all of your house plants. 

Steps for Charging Water With Moonlight

Moon-charged water can be made at any time of the month. It doesn’t necessarily have to be at the full moon, but it is highly recommended to use the power of a full moon to charge your water.

The only time this water shouldn’t be made is during an eclipse. You want to utilize the lunar energy of the moon for your water, not eclipse energy.

To make moon water, the moon actually doesn’t even have to be fully visible and it's okay if it is obstructed by clouds. Water is energetically receptive, meaning it can absorb the energy of whatever it is instilled with. Water will act like an antenna to receive the moon’s healing energy just by being outside or on a window sill, the same way it does with the ocean.

Charging water with moonlight is fairly easy to do. All you need is a jar or large bowl and purified mineral water. Every Full Moon night, pour the mineral water into the jar. Inform the water with your positive intentions (what you want to accomplish and see changed), then place the jar under the rays of the Moon for a few hours.

You can add crystals, seashells, or even sea salt to the water in order to fill it with the energies.

Just remember, it's important to bring in your moon-charged water before the morning sun rises. To be fully charged, the water must not see the sun’s rays.
