Moon water is a sacred liquid that has been used for centuries. It has many healing properties and can help amplify your energy. If you are interested in this mystical liquid, then read on to find out all about it! Here is a guide on how you can make moon water and all of its benefits.
What is moon water?
Moon water is water that has been charged with moonlight. The moonlight energizes the water, making it very powerful.
Humans have shown appreciation for the moon for centuries, and the process of making and using moon water has roots in witchcraft, dating back to the 1800s.
You only want to make the moon water when the full moon is present, but you don’t want it during a lunar eclipse. When eclipses happen, they are dark and show our shadows.
How to make moon water
1. Choose a container, and fill it with water
Get yourself a glass jar to fill with water. It’s best to use fresh rainwater, but any drinking water will work if you do not have access to clean rain.
If you have a specific intention or goal in mind, you can also choose the container that fits your needs. You can use a glass container for protection, a copper vessel to promote healing or even a wooden bowl that is an Earth element.
I like to use a glass jar because I can cover the top with a lid, which keeps the water clean and free from any contaminates.
2. Place the jar outside
It’s essential that you leave the jar of water outside somewhere that is in direct moonlight.
It is best to find a spot that has grass and leave the jar on the ground. This will allow you to connect with nature during this process!
3. Say prayer or affirmation
When you leave the jar outside, say a prayer or affirmation that is directed toward your intention. It would help if you used words that are meaningful to you and something that is going to resonate with you on a spiritual level.
Doing this will help set an intention for the moon water.
4. Breathe
Take three deep breaths while holding your hands above the water. Feel energy radiating from within, just as it does when the moonbeams light down upon the Earth.
Picture your intention or goal, whatever it may be. The idea is to get yourself into the right mindset.
5. Use some crystals
To boost the effects of your moon water, place crystals on top of your jar. The best crystals for making moon water are selenite, clear quartz, and moonstone.
6. Thank the moon
Take a moment to thank the moon for shining down upon our world and giving it its beauty and power. Thank it specifically for helping you make this magical water.
7. Leave overnight
Once you’ve said your prayer and set the intention, let the water sit out overnight.
The following day, take it inside of your home and use it for whatever purpose you choose.

There are so many benefits of using moon water:

How to use moon water
Cleaning your home: Add some moon water to your cleaning solutions to help refresh your home and give it a more spiritual feel.
Watering your plants: Spray your plants and water them with the moon water to revitalize their energy.
Adding to a full moon bath: Add moon water to your bath for an even deeper connection. Full moon baths are a great way to bond with lunar energy.

For cleansing crystals: The full moon can be used to recharge and cleanse your crystals, and so can moon water. Crystals like quartz, amethyst, agate, moonstone, and citrine are all great for absorbing the solar energies of the moon.
FAQs
What do I do with my moon water?
Moon water can be used in a variety of ways. It can be used for personal things, such as drinking it, bathing with it, or using it to clean your crystal collection. You can also use moon water for more practical purposes, such as watering your plants.
Using moon water to water your plants is one of my favorite ways to use it, as the intent behind this action would be to help them flourish.
What color should my moon water be?
The water in the container will appear clear at first, just like regular water, but if left for a long period of time, you’ll notice that it starts turning brown. When the moon water begins to turn brown, throw it away because it’s gone bad and stagnant.
How do you use water in an eclipse?
During an eclipse, you can use a container full of water to help protect yourself. This is because the moon, our source of lunar energy and power, protects you during this time. Just leave the container out in the night sky during the entire eclipse duration so that it receives its maximum potency.
Do you need to use spring water for moon water?
No, you can use any type of clean water. However, it’s best if the container is clear for the moon rays to be transmitted into your water. This helps with the stabilization of its energy and potency.
