If somebody sold Moon Water in my town, sales would be brisk. Ashland Oregon is abundant with individuals who genuinely revere the Divine Feminine and believe in the powers of subtle energies. And while quite a few of us actually dance under the Full Moon, many more of us, unfortunately, simply dance with the idea of doing it, and most months, we’re even too busy for that. Hence: the attractiveness of purchasing Moon Water.
Imagine, having Moon Water in an elegant yet handy spray bottle, so that throughout the day, you could mist your feet, hands, face, and heart with the healing touch of the Moon. At night you could mist your pillow to attract soothing, illuminating dreams. With Moon Water you could charge your crystals. You could brew psychic teas. You could revive ailing pets and house plants.
But alas, Moon Water has not yet hit our shelves. So it is only during those months when you’re so fully in tune with the Feminine that you can use the exquisite opportunity each Full Moon brings, not only to charge a jar of spring water, but also to enchant yourself. While making time to do this is difficult, the procedure itself is simple.
Pour purified water into a glass jar. Place it outside in the moonlight. Stand there awhile. Feel into the moonlight. Close your eyes. Imagine that the Moon is descending and has become a glowing orb just inches above the crown of your head. Feel how the Moon’s light now enters your body, nourishing each of your chakras, filling your cells.
Once you’re filled with the sense of the Moon, open your eyes. Slowly and lovingly circle your right hand in a clockwise direction over the water, nine times. Then do the same with your left hand, counter-clockwise, nine times. After that, over the jar, form a triangle with the index fingers and thumbs of both hands. Into the center of the triangle, pour your gratitude for the gift the Moon is bringing you.
Then wait a minute or two. You may or may not receive a message, perhaps an image, a word, or a sensation. After you feel complete, rub your hands together and shake them out. Leave the bottled water out all night, but retrieve it early in the morning, before it’s touched by the Sun’s rays.
Make 2023 the year of archetypal vibrance. Enjoy imagination and support with my monthly Moon workshop .

beautiful, I am a cancer, I will do the Cancer Full Moon ritual to bring with me into the New Year. The water seems the winning element for a Cancer full moon.
How can one soak up the full moon rays & benefits when living in an area that is rainy & cloud-covered?
Well, you can wait for a full moon night that is clear–making such a night all the more special. But know that the value is not just in the moonlight–the full moon is in the air all around–tune in. Then, the real magic happens inside the ritual and the intention you bring to it. The moon will reach your water if your intention is strong.
