Take a moment to marvel The lunar cycle is a reminder that, even in the darkest of times, light will return, and beauty is always there if we look for it. In the days leading up to the full moon, make sure to go outside, look up at the night sky and take a moment to feel hopeful – visualising moonlight flowing into every cell of your body. Focus on harnessing the moon’s energy Everything is easier when the cosmic tides are with us.

The moon is full – and at the peak of its energy – for around three days each lunar month. As the moon’s crescent waxes and her light increases, we reach the peak of our emotional and spiritual powers. This is the time to bring projects to fruition and share any significant ideas you may have.

If you’re looking for a glimpse into your future, consider reading the tarot, too; intuition is particularly strong at this point in the month. Practise some moon-inspired manifestation Is there something you want to manifest over the next lunar month? Write it down in the simplest terms possible, then fill a bowl with water and place it somewhere where the light of the moon falls on its surface. (If the weather isn’t cooperating, look for a lighter patch in the clouds that will reveal where the moon is hidden and visualise moonlight falling onto the water.

) Gaze into the bowl and hold the phrase you’ve written in your mind before going to bed. In the morning, use your moon water to bathe your face and commit to taking some positive steps towa.
