How to Make Moon Juice

What is Moon Juice? It is water charged by the energy of the moon and is also referred to as Lunar Water. The full moon provides the most powerful and potent energy to create it and is when it is easiest to connect to our intuition. The other phase that lunar water can be made is during the gibbous moon phase, when the moon is nearing fullness. If the full moon is being eclipsed, do not create moon juice at this time since the eclipse energy, which is dark, toxic and about shadows, overpowers the lunar energy.

The zodiac sign that the moon is in will also affect the energy of the water. For October 9, 2022 Full Moon, it is in Aries, which is known for aggressive ambition and action. This may be the most emotional full moon of 2022 because it is joining forces with Chiron, which is related to deep-seated insecurities and unhealed wounds. The best way to heal yourself when Chiron is involved is to heal others. Therefore it is a great time to forgive someone else so that we may also begin forgiving ourselves.

This Full Moon in Aries is said to affect some signs more than others with Capricorn being one of them. With my rising sign in Capricorn, the horoscope for this full moon states: Bringing your focus to your fourth house of family and lineage, the full moon in Aries wants you to understand that you had no control over where you come from or who you’re related to. And although you might feel bogged down by pressure at home, you have the power to build your own idea of home, no matter where that may be. If you aren’t happy with your address or you and your parents aren’t getting along, this full moon will inspire you to start doing something about it (one way or the other). The intentions I plan to work on during this full moon on October 9, 2022 will be focused on this recommendation.

Here are the directions on how to create moon juice:
1. Find a glass bottle or jar with a lid to keep debris out of it if placing outdoors.
2. Fill it with water, preferably spring, filtered or distilled.
3. Set your intentions by writing it on a piece of paper that may be taped to the side of the jar or placed underneath it.
4. Set the bottle out overnight during your chosen moon phase. If setting it outside is not feasible, it may be placed on a window sill that will receive the moon’s light.
5. Place crystals on top of the jar for an extra boost. Selenite, clear quartz and moonstone can be used to clear energy and increase intuition.
6. Retrieve it in the morning.

Uses for moon juice include:
1. Using the water to make tea to drink.
2. Filling a diffuser used with essential oils that can be run during meditation.
3. Clean your home by adding some moon water to cleaning solutions.
4. Water or spritz plants to revitalize them.
5. Add some to your bath water.
