Living in Rhythm with the Moon: A Beginner’s Guide

We’ve all heard that the moon affects tides… but did you know it also affects you? If you’ve ever felt emotionally charged around the full moon or extra sleepy during the waning phase—guess what? You’re already in tune.

Working with the moon isn’t just for witches (though we proudly wave that wand around here). It’s for anyone looking to live more intentionally, creatively, and intuitively.

Here’s a quick guide to the 4 main phases:

🌑 New Moon – Time to set intentions, rest, and plant spiritual seeds
🌓 First Quarter – Take inspired action, break through resistance
🌕 Full Moon – Celebrate wins, release what no longer serves
🌗 Last Quarter – Reflect, clear, prepare to reset

Each phase supports a different type of energy—and when you align with it, your life flows more naturally. No more paddling upstream.

Want to go deeper? Try journaling with the moon, syncing your self-care with the phases, or joining a moon circle. And if you’re feeling called to start your own lunar ritual—well, you already have everything you need inside you. (But we also have a few magical tools in the boutique if you’d like some backup.)
