How to Make Moon Water

Few divine forces are as powerful and essential to witchcraft as the moon; moon water is a vital extension of that.

Selene.

Luna.

Call her what you will, but the moon’s energy is responsible for measurable influences on our life. Scientific evidence suggests that the moon’s impact on our planet’s tides made the development of biological life possible. Without our moon, we likely wouldn’t exist.

So it stands to reason that magical practice benefits greatly from lunar energy. Many witches consider the lunar phase when planning to cast spells. A full moon, in particular, enhances the efficacy of magic.

But the moon’s energy can be infused into all objects and ingredients. Water- the source of life and an element of great power in witchcraft- can be imbued with the moon’s ability to aid mental and emotional healing.

What is moon water?

But, it’s water that the moon’s power has charged. Any water can serve as a base, though freshwater is best. Depending upon your intended use, the base water should also be safe to drink.

It requires you to set a specific intention to welcome positive energy into your life and banish negative energy.

How to Make Moon Water?

Making moon water is extremely easy, and your process can be modified to fit any need.

Step One:

First, you need to choose a vessel. Moon water can be made in sacred objects, like a chalice, a delicate silver dish, or a glass potion bottle. But it can also be made in the mason jar you already have stashed in your cupboards.

If the vessel can hold water and is associated with positive energy, it can make moon water.

Step Two:

The next step is choosing the kind of water you plan to energize.

While you can make moon water with salt water, its uses are limited. It can be used to bless spaces and be added to baths, but it cannot be ingested or used to water plants.

Choosing freshwater gives you the most versatility.

If you plan to drink it, use safe, potable water or filter your tap water first. The moon can be powerful and cleansing but can’t filter bacteria and heavy metals.

Step Three:

Next, you should consider what stage of the lunar cycle you want to use for energizing. We’ll go into more depth about picking the perfect time for your needs but keep in mind that different lunar phases will have other effects.

Step Four:

This is also a great time to consider any additional items or crystals you may want to use in conjunction with the moon to energize your water. Stones like selenite, moonstone, clear quartz, and labradorite are all deeply connected to the moon. Be sure to cleanse any crystals of negative energy before setting them along your vessel.

Step Five:

Once you’ve chosen your vessel, base water, preferred lunar phase, and accessory items, it’s time to energize.

Find the room in your house that gets the most moonlight. If your home doesn’t have an ideal window, you can make it outside, provided you can keep the jar safe from bugs and contaminants.

Fill your vessel with the water you’ve chosen and set your intention. These intentions will largely depend on your moon water’s purpose. But a reliable, primary intention setting for it would look something like this:

“Let the moon’s energy cleanse and energize this water.”

Set the vessel on your window sill, a table beneath your window, or outside beneath the moon and leave overnight. The longer the water spends on the moon, the more energized it will become. Ideally, you should retrieve your moon water before it receives too much sunlight.

Final Step:

You’re all set if you plan to use the moon water immediately!

But if you’ve prepared this moon water before using it, you should keep it in a clean, sealed container that you store in a dark space.

How to Use Moon Water

Ultimately, you can use moon water the same way you would use regular water. But energetically speaking, moon water will help you manifest your goals more quickly.

Drinking

You can drink moon water straight up if you like. It might be a bit wasteful to drink it all in one go–sprinkling a few drops of it into your water bottle will go a long way in cleansing and energizing you.

You can also use it to brew tea. Most common tea-making methods require water, but specific herbal blends pair well with moon water. Green and white teas complement its cleansing, energizing power. Try using lunar-charged water to brew an iced green tea with a bit of lemongrass for a refreshing way to hydrate.

Beauty Routine

Few sources of light are as soothing as moonlight. Moon water added to your beauty routine will bring that same calming energy, especially to skincare needs.

Add a few drops of lavender oil and witch hazel to your moon water. Keep the mixture in a spray bottle to spritz whenever you like. The result is a beautiful, hydrating toner that will energize your skin.

Ritual Bathing

Moon water can be added alongside your favorite bath bombs, Epsom salts, and essential oils to create an incredible moon bath. You might need to prepare a little more moon water if you plan to use it for a bath. But you do not have to fill a tub to benefit from it.

(If you do, let us know if you feel like the moon goddess herself.)

Watering Plants

If your plants look down or you’ve forgotten to water them regularly, moon water is a fantastic way to keep them hydrated and boost them.

Some rare plants and flowers only bloom in the light of the moon. Moon water is the perfect treat if you keep any of these plants.

You can even keep moon water in a spray bottle for misting succulents and air plants that don’t require full watering.

Be sure to water according to appropriate plant care instructions.

Blessing Spaces

Like all mineral spirits in the practice of magic, moon water can bless or cleanse a space. Use it to edit a spell circle or bless an altar.

Many crystals can be cleansed, but be very careful–water can damage or erode some. Be sure to research specific crystals before sprinkling or soaking them in water.

How to Choose a Full or New Moon to Charge Your Water Under

The moon can charge with its energy any and every night. However, certain phases of the moon and certain celestial conditions will have different effects.

Full Moon

Charge your water under the full moonlight if you’re most interested in powerful energy. The moon is most influential when it’s the biggest and brightest in the sky. If you want that will energize and empower your goals, charge under full direct moonlight.

There are typically twelve full moons in a given year. Each one bestows different blessings, so you can also consider that. Charging water under autumn’s Full Corn will fill it with the energy to harvest benefits from all your hard work.

New Moon

Charge your water under a new moon if you’re most interested in cleansing energy. The new moon is called such because it’s marked as the restarting point of each lunar cycle. The moon appears to have disappeared from the sky, but it’s there.

Under this moon, your water will have added cleansing properties and endow your ventures with new potential.
