DIY Moon Water & 15+ Uses With Essential Oils

Sharing is caring!

Moon Water is water that has been exposed to moonlight, and charged with intention. This is a fantastic way to intensify the moon cycles, along with their energies into your monthly routines.

Benefits of Moon Water

When you charge your water under the energy of the moon, whether full or new (or anywhere between), you enhance and intensify your relationship with the moon, along with all its subtle and not so subtle energy influence.

• Using Moon Water helps you adapt to the changing seasons
• Use diminishing moon and New Moon charged water to help you release all that no longer serves you
• Use the increasing moon and Full Moon charged water gaining mental clarity, expanding potential, and putting your intentions into action
• Moon Water helps you intensify your manifestation and lunar cycle routines
• Moon Water helps to cleanse and recharge your mind, body, soul, and home

How to make Moon Water

To make moon water, simply fill a glass container or bowl with filtered or drinking water, leave it outside overnight in the moonlight with a closed lid (so critters don’t get in there), and done! 

We personally choose to use large mason jars, which is what we also generally drink out of.

The moon can actually be in any phase, but each phase will give moon water different energetic properties.

How to store your Moon Water

I highly recommend using glass to store your moon water. This helps to ensure you don't have to worry about any chemicals in plastic or coating metal leaching into your water.

Personally, we use Lifefactory glass water bottles for drinking, and mason jars for storing. Mason jars work especially well if you're adding in crystals too.
