What Happens If You Put Water Under Tonight's Blue Super Moon And Drink It?

Tonight's full moon isn't just any ordinary full moon; it's a Super Blue Moon. This moon carries an incredible blend of cosmic energy that is setting the scene to shake things up.

What is the blue moon and why should I care?

"Once in a blue moon." This is where the saying comes from. And this one is like good luck on steroids.

When the moon's orbit takes it closer to Earth, it appears larger and brighter than a regular full moon. This is known as a supermoon. When there are four full moons in a season, the third is called the blue moon. The moon won't actually be blue; it'll be red. This starts us on a confusing path, which ends with us putting water and crystals out on the lawn. Stick with me here!

If you've been feeling extra tension, excitement, anxiety, or just a general "low buzzing" feeling in your bones, this is no coincidence. This supermoon is the center of the celestial dance that is bringing every sign of the zodiac into a period of deep transformation that we are witnessing in August. Your conduct, spiritual health, and emotions will all benefit from this experience.

Typically, there are just three full moons in any season of the year. However, as there are full moons every 29.5 days, there may occasionally be four full moons in a season. A blue moon is the extra-full moon of the season. On average, there is a blue moon every 2.7 years. That's why you hear "once in a blue moon."

The moon tonight, taking place in the rebellious sign of Aquarius, promises a period of abundance, personal growth, revelations, and new direction. The catch? You have to clear out all the junk energy and emotion you're holding on to, taking up space. The tension between the sun and the moon during a full moon always feels a bit intense (ask a police officer or ER nurse what it's like to work a full moon), but this tension under Aquarius can feel like a breaking point. Emotions will run high, and things you've been letting simmer can come to a head.

This is where moon water comes in.

Moon water is used to cleanse the body or surroundings energetically, to impart insight and heighten intuition, to illuminate and clear hidden emotions and beliefs, and to bestow upon oneself great gifts. Herbal teas, vibrational essences, and other elixirs can be made using it.

Instead of using plants for their medicinal qualities, you can call upon them for their magical and spiritual qualities for moon water; Dandelion, clover, and cinnamon are herbs that help with manifestation. Chickweed, marshmallow, and passionflower are herbs connected to the moon. Clary sage, cinnamon, and gotu kola are herbs that can improve intuition. Rose, mugwort, and jasmine are among the herbs that might enhance prophetic dreams.

Get a big ol' glass jar and fill it up with water. Take that bad boy outside after the sun sets. While you're doing this, think about what you want to let go of from the past to make room for all this good luck and abundance to move into your life. Be very specific about what you want to let go of, what no longer serves you, and what you want to welcome in its place.

Put a glass lid or fine cheesecloth on it to keep the critters out. Leave it out overnight in the moonlight; let the Super Blue Moon do its magic. In the morning, strain your herbs if you have any, bring it in and take a big drink or a little drink, share them with family, water your pets or plants with them, and just USE IT. It's your moon water; use it and watch all that goodness roll in.

While you're at it, don't forget, if you have crystals in the house, to bring them outside and set them in the moonlight to cleanse and recharge them.
