Lunar Calendar: How the Moon Affects Us Overall
The lunar calendar will tell you when not to wash your hair, fast, or water your flowers. Live in the rhythm of the Moon – with humor and perspective!
The Lunar Calendar in Everyday Life (and Hilarious Stories from My Watering Routine)
We all have our own rituals. For example, I only water my flowers when the Moon is in a water sign, that's how it's supposed to be 😉 And do I wash my hair? Not by chance, if the Moon is in Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces!. Water for flowers yes, but definitely NOT for my head! And without the lunar calendar Beautiful lady not a step!
The Moon: Our Celestial Coach and Ruler of the Phases
Have you ever wondered why you sometimes feel energized and other times you just want to crawl under the covers? Maybe it's because of Month! No, this is not a lunar conspiracy, but a lunar calendar and its four main phases, which, whether you believe in astrology or not, beautifully show us how nature and ourselves change. And don't worry, even though the Moon seems like a silent companion to the Earth, it can give us a real workout!
Moon phases and what to do with them
New Moon: A Factory for Personalities and New Beginnings (but you won't see the Moon!)
Imagine this: The Moon and the Sun are on a date, so close that they completely hide from our view. We call this new moon (or new moon). And what does that mean? The Moon is currently invisible to us, which is quite ironic, since it is at this time, according to astrologers, that the the strongest and most prominent personalitieswho have their emotions under control and their heads in the right place. So if your grandma told you that you were born on a new moon, you're in luck!
But the new moon isn't just about super people. It's also the perfect time for new beginnings. Do you want to start a new project, find a new job, or finally embark on a cleansing regimen? Everything that is “new” has the green light! So, no excuses, the Moon is giving you the signal!
What to do:
- Go on a diet or fast – your body gets rid of toxins faster. Plus, you finally have an excuse not to have a company lunch with Karl from accounting.
- Drink tea and eat healthy – the body absorbs vitamins better. So yes, that expensive organic quinoa finally makes sense.
- Get rid of bad habits – the perfect time to stop watching TikTok at two in the morning.
- Don't bet anything – the soil is resting, as is your motivation to garden.
- Make a wish – when the first crescent appears, formulate a wish. Note that “to cancel Monday” does not count.
The Waxing Crescent and the First Quarter: The Time When Everything Gets Started (and Muscles Grow!)
After the Moon "disappears" during the new moon, it begins to slowly, inconspicuously return. At first, as a thin crescent, which is increasing day by day. And in about a week we will have first quarterwhen the Moon looks like the letter "D".
This period is like the Moon saying, "Okay, now get to it!" It's the perfect time for making everything new happen, whether it's about love, starting a family, or just feeling full of energy. Even your body is better off – they say better absorbs vitamins and mineralsJust be careful, if you've had surgery, the healing process isn't very good right now, so don't plan any extreme sports!
What to do:
- Learn to manage energy – which sounds better than “stop being tired all the time.”
- You'll tear yourself apart in the garden – it's time for planting, transplanting, vaccinating. Basically, everything you've been putting off all winter.
Full Moon: A Dramatic Disco Ball with Magical Power (and the Occasional Insomnia)
When the Moon turns into a round, glowing disco ball in the sky, we have full moon. This handsome guy appears about 14-15 days after the new moon and can be seen in all its glory. And while it looks romantic, be prepared for drama! Full Moon strongly affects our emotionsPeople born under a full moon are said to be sensitive artists with clairvoyant tendencies, but they can also be prone to emotional imbalance. So if you meet a super sensitive artist, ask when they were born!
The full moon is said to be ideal for important decisions and declarations of love – simply the most romantic time of the cycle. But on the other hand, some people react to it with anxiety, nervousness, and poor sleep. So if you're tossing and turning at night, you know who to blame.

And now the best part: magic under the full moon! It is a time for forgiveness, letting go of the old and inviting prosperity, goodness and love. Witchcraft is in full swing, but beware! All spells should be done with caution and without fear, as they could come back to haunt you, and multiply. So no black magic attempts on your boss unless you want it to come back to haunt you with interest! The full moon is also great for charging precious stones and divination tools. Simply expose them to moonlight and let them gain energy.
- Lighten your diet – while your neighbor yells at the cat, you meditate over a salad. Perfect for fasting!
- Let your intuition flow freely. – which could mean anything from buying a plant that you'll kill within a month to sending an emotional message to your ex.
- Relive forgotten dreams – it's time to pull out that unused Spanish course or finally start writing that novel.
The Waning Moon and Last Quarter: A Time to Harvest and Detoxify the Body (and Rest)
After that spectacular full moon show, the Moon will begin to back up, which means it gradually gets smaller. About 22 days after the new moon, it gets to last quarterThis phase is ideal for presentation of results your hard work. And that's great, because at this time you have the greatest support from those around you!
Moreover, it is a period when they best eliminate toxic substances from the body. So if you've been working hard, now's the time to detox! And for farmers, it's also said to be time suitable for harvesting.
What to do:
- Lose weight and detoxify – finally a reason why that green smoothie makes sense.
- Prune trees – they don't get the sap flowing, unlike you when you look at the bills.
- Start composting – nothing is more poetic than the decomposition of organic matter according to the phases of the moon.
Gardening by the Elements: Science or Magic?
The moon travels through the zodiac signs like an influencer through Instagram locations, and each sign has its own element:
- Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): Supports leaves. Perfect for those lucky enough to have a cactus that survives.
- Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): Flower season. Your garden will look like something out of Pinterest.
- Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): Fruits and seeds. Finally, those tomatoes that will make the whole neighborhood jealous.
- Country (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): Roots. For those who want to wait six months for something they can't see.
The Golden Rule of Lunar Life
Waning Moon = time for everything that puts a strain on the body (surgery, vaccinations, watching the news) Waxing Moon = time for everything that strengthens the body (vitamins, exercise, positive thinking)
It's simple - when the Moon waxes, so do you. When it waxes, let go of all the bad. If that doesn't seem scientifically sound, remember that the Moon affects the oceans, so why not your schedule?
Editor's note: This article does not take responsibility for any failures in following the lunar calendar. If your lettuce doesn't grow on the new moon, it could be because you planted it in sand.
