ALL ABOUT THE MOON

Greeting Card by Lynne Dee for Spiral Happy

     In honor of the SUPER MOON that occurred on Saturday, March 19^th, 2011, it is a good time to reflect upon what the phases of the moon can mean to us here on Earth. The following information is just an overview. I suggest, for those interested in knowing more, to do some research on their own. Over the years I have kept a journal to include topics I have an interest in and have often included what other people have written as well. The following is from my journal.

The FULL MOON enhances intuition and psychic vision. It is a time of revelation. It is known as the best time for Divination, 3 days before (waxing) and 3 days after (waning) for a total of 7 days. This is a good time to ask about family, love, motivation of others, competition, money, fitness and health, decisions, and self-improvement. Issues are often clear at this time, sometimes painfully so. Dreams of a prophetic nature tend to occur here.

The WAXING MOON is on its way to FULL from NEW MOON. Energy & Strength increase.

The WANING MOON is on its way from FULL MOON to NEW MOON. It starts the 4^th day after the Full Moon and continues for 7 days. It is not the best time for divination.

The NEW MOON is also a good time for divination, 3 days before and 3 days after, for a total of 7 days. It is considered the beginning of a new cycle. It is a good time to begin new endeavors or make changes to existing ones. Questions about relationships or projects recently started or just ending are perfect subjects to bring up at this time. Questions focused on health, beauty, creative endeavors, money, legal matters, jobs, love and romance can be raised at this time. Analyze the significance of certain dreams you have at this time as well. Feel free to read an earlier post entitled “WHY WRITE DOWN YOUR DREAMS?” for some guidance on dreams.

In ending, I want to leave you with this last thought.

Many religions have used the phases of the Moon to determine a “holy day” aka holiday. 

Can you name any?
