It is known that in our Solar system the only source of its own light is the Sun. All other celestial bodies in our system are powered by solar energy, remaining in their position around the Sun and reflecting its light. The satellite of our Earth, the Moon, directing the light of the Sun towards our planet, is a kind of mirror for the Earth. The movement of the Moon around the Earth and its specific position relative to the Sun are usually divided into four phases of the Moon.
There are four main phases of the lunar month:
- (1 - Moon phase)
- (2 - moon phase)
- (3 - moon phase)
- (4 - moon phase)
Being in its movement around the Earth in the shadow of our planet, it reflects sunlight from one or the other half of the disk. On an energetic level, the Moon phases represent different types of transmission of solar energy that affect all species and forms of life on our planet.
Each phase of the lunar cycle affects everything on earth in its own way, which is associated, first of all, with the degree of distance of the Moon from the Sun. Dramatic changes occur twice a month: when the lunar crescent either grows until it turns into a full disk, or decreases until it disappears completely. Not only our general well-being, but also the nature of various life situations depends on the influence of the moon phase.
The waxing phase of the Moon is the period that runs from the new moon to the full moon.
The waning phase of the moon is the period following the full moon.
INFLUENCE OF THE WALKING PHASE OF THE MOON
During this time, we react more emotionally to situations and phenomena in the world around us. During this period, energy accumulates, and therefore any kind of planning is favorable. From the new moon to the full moon it is good to start new things, make important decisions, conduct important negotiations, etc.
INFLUENCE OF THE WANING PHASE OF THE MOON
On the contrary, emotions are inhibited, we have reduced sensitivity and receptivity. At this time, it is favorable to properly spend accumulated energy, and therefore it is good to continue what you started, to complete things. Both phases of the waxing and waning moon are further divided into two parts, with each of the four periods lasting about a week.
Features of each phase of the moon separately:
NEW MOON
- this is a phase period during which the moon is not visible at all in the sky due to the fact that it is in line with the Earth and the Sun. At this time, the moon “shows” us its dark side, which is not illuminated by the Sun. The new moon can affect a person for several days. During this period, a person feels depressed, exhausted, and is often accompanied by headaches. At the same time, fluid removal from the body and metabolism accelerates. During the new moon, many people experience mental disorders, phobias and manias appear. It is very undesirable at this time to start developing something new and meeting suspicious people.
When the phases of the moon change, it affects a person in the same way as the changing cycles of the sun. Many astrologers are confident that there are points of contact between these two planets. The moon also has four phases. They are called quarters.
The first phase of the Moon is associated with the element EARTH
It begins with the appearance of the month in the sky and lasts exactly half the period from the new moon to the full moon, that is, 1-7 days of the lunar month, and ends in the first quarter. corresponds to spring according to the solar calendar, that is, it means the beginning of everything. During this phase, a person's brain is very active. If you make plans during this period, they will be extremely clear and understandable and will certainly bring good luck. The overall activity and desire to create increases. But you shouldn’t rush too much either; it’s better to think through everything, calculate it and, slowly, start implementing the plan.
During this period, treatment of the eyes and head will be effective. This period is also favorable for agriculture. All plants planted during this lunar phase will grow well and produce a wonderful harvest.
It is characterized by gaining emotional balance. During this period, great potential opportunities open up before us, which must be used to achieve our goal.
Second phase (First quarter) of the Moon, associated with the element of WATER
Duration: time from the first quarter to the full moon, which corresponds to from the 8th to the 15th.
At this time we will see half of the lunar disk in the sky. According to the solar cycle, this is summer. The most productive period, the period of filling with energy. This is the best time to change jobs, travel, and public appearances.
This phase of the moon is well suited for the treatment of the gastric bladder, liver, and large intestine.
It is advised to plant and replant plants and root cuttings during this period.
This is a period of strong emotional stress. At this time, more than ever, we need spiritual comfort, and therefore we perceive indifference and alienation very painfully. This phase of the Moon is suitable for effectively resolving conflicts, solving pressing problems and overcoming discontent, conducting difficult negotiations and obviously unpleasant meetings, and the correct conduct of negotiations will certainly give a good result.
Full moon
At this time we see the Moon in full in all its glory. Moonlight, in this phase of the Moon, can affect people in different ways. Moreover, during this period the body furiously uses up its accumulated strength. Insomnia, increased irritability and emotionality may occur.
Drinking alcohol can be dangerous. At this time, the largest number of road accidents, man-made accidents and disasters occurs.
It is better not to undergo surgery at this time.
Also, there is no need to replant the plants; it would be much better to start weeding them and loosening the soil.
Third phase of the moon, associated with the elements AIR
It comes into effect after the Full Moon, when the Lunar disk begins to decrease. Its duration is from the 16th to the 22nd Lunar day. Autumn arrives according to the solar cycle. The period is characterized by balanced activity and maturity.
This phase is very suitable for completing your affairs.
At this time, energy is better spent and appetite decreases. That is why many nutritionists recommend starting the fight against excess weight and cellulite at this time.
It is advisable to plant root crops and bulbous crops during this phase.
At this time, we are most open to communication, openly express our feelings and make social contacts. During this period, we can easily overestimate our strengths, so we should not sort things out or raise children in a strong-willed way. There may be an effect of an overabundance of feelings for the most insignificant reasons, an inadequate perception of reality, when small things seem important and significant.
Fourth phase of the moon associated with the element of FIRE
comes into effect from the second week after the Full Moon, and lasts until the next new moon from 23 - 30
Let's say that all your nervous outbursts are caused precisely by the fact that you believe too much in the power of the night star and inspire yourself with inspiration, insomnia, and malaise. But why then do small children, who still know nothing about the movement of all sorts of stars (and especially about the influence of the phases of the moon on earthly events), wake up more often on moonlit nights and cry more than usual on a new moon?
In this light
The phases of the moon especially strongly influence people with a subtle psyche. “The relatives of patients complain,” says psychiatrist Nadezhda Gudkova, “that strictly on the eve of the full moon, my patients deteriorate. That’s why family members keep extra doses of medicine on hand.”
It is possible that medieval legends about werewolves going berserk under the full moon are rooted in completely medical history. Maniacs become aggravated and go hunting. It’s just that the concept of “maniac” did not yet exist, and the strange aggression of seemingly normal (in daylight) people needed to be explained somehow.
In more ancient times, during the era of paganism, not only ominous properties were attributed to the pale luminary, but also quite positive ones: for example, it was believed that the new moon is a time of male activity, and the full moon is most favorable for women. This is probably where the idea originates that fortune telling “for love” is best during this period. In addition, many still believe that nourishing masks and aromatic oils have the greatest effect during the full moon.
Hair removal and cosmetic cleansing are best done when the moon is waning. If you pluck your hair during a young month, the effect will be short-lived: new hairs will increase in growth along with the night light. And the sebaceous glands will work more actively, and the pores will clog faster.
You should cut your hair like this: if you want your hairstyle to retain its shape longer, cut your hair after the full moon. And if you need your hair to grow back faster, then on the waxing moon. If you have planned to radically change your image, then it is best to go to the stylist during the full moon: it’s not so much about your hair, but about the creative abilities of the stylist - they are activated during the full moon phase.
Stylist Irina Baranova admits: “I don’t have a scientific explanation, but, indeed, many clients of the salon make appointments with hairdressers only on the full moon. I didn’t notice how effective it was. I believe that each master has his own biofield: if you cut your hair with one, the hair grows slowly, and with another, it grows quickly.”
Healthy nutrition experts treat the mysterious luminary rationally: “There is a belief that you need to lose weight on the waning moon,” says nutritionist Marina Trifonova. — If this is an additional incentive for you, good. You need to change your lifestyle and diet with firm confidence in success. Just don’t use the lunar phases as an excuse: “I’ll wait until the waning moon, then vacation, then Monday... Oh, the moon is already waxing again.” Try to eat less, exercise and lead a healthy lifestyle, regardless of the moon, sun and other celestial bodies.”
And the Buddhist monk Konchok Chinla, a specialist at the Naran Tibetan medicine clinic, told us that it is best to go on a diet three days before the full moon or new moon: “You will easily endure dietary restrictions, and the cleansing and weight loss effect will be greater.” However, we were not talking about long-term weight loss programs, but specifically about express diets and cleansing fasting.
Force of gravity
Summer residents still prefer to plant, weed and collect in accordance with lunar cycles. These prejudices (or scientific and practical research) help achieve good harvests. Previously, in the village economy, almost any business was associated with a certain lunar phase.
For example, it was believed that it was better to ferment cabbage during the new month. There is a logic to this: all microorganisms (that is, lactic acid bacteria in this case) multiply at double the speed, as a result, the cabbage ferments faster. But if it was necessary to “roll up” the product for long-term storage (for the winter), then, on the contrary, they salted it on the waning moon. Then it slowly soured and remained crisp until spring. Yeast dough rises faster when the moon is waxing - I personally tested it. It was categorically not recommended to do any housework during the full moon: the result could be unpredictable.
In Russian villages it was not forbidden to go to the bathhouse even every day. But they told fortunes and treated people there only during the full moon.
The swimming season was also opened under the full moon: it was believed that in its cleansing light no fever would stick to the body, even if the water was not warm enough.
Staff at Bradford Royal Institution have calculated that dogs are more likely to bite people during a full moon. And the police in the British city of Brighton decided to increase patrols on the days of full moons and paydays - this is when the largest number of incidents occur.
“Among all the planets, the Moon has the most noticeable impact on human life and health,” confirmed to us the chief physician of the Cosmonautics Federation, the wife of the famous cosmonaut Lyudmila Grechko. — Since the time of Ptolemy, writings have documented the dependence of fluids in the body (lymph, blood, etc.) on the lunar phases. In its orbit around the Earth, its satellite causes a tidal wave of several meters. Such a powerful attraction has a strong effect on a person, on all living things - both on the physical and energetic levels. If you learn to listen to your body and make your own plans in accordance with the lunar cycle, you can prevent many problems. The growth period is a time of increased biological activity; on a waning luminary, our vitality noticeably decreases. Peak points are the days of the new moon and full moon. The authors of various studies believe that the closer to the full moon, the more feelings, strength and energy in the body turn into excitement and nervousness. This is the time of transition from accumulating strength to actively spending it. At this turning point, unspent energy tears us apart, emotions become uncontrollable. Some people experience insomnia. Be careful during the full moon. Don't let it affect you negatively. Perhaps the following techniques will help you:
- try to speak slowly, without raising your voice (for self-control, try pausing for 2 seconds every two words);
- go on a diet or just give yourself a fasting day on the eve of the full moon;
- Do a quiet, monotonous activity, such as knitting or embroidery.
These simple exercises will prevent an explosion of emotions and will prevent you from making a mess.”
Cult item
Homeopathic doctor Irina Demidova advises not to look at the moon for a long time, since some people have increased sensitivity to its light: a feeling of sadness and even depression may occur. However, the doctor was stingy with recommendations, saying that the full moon is too serious a topic to give general advice to everyone: “Each person must be approached individually, taking into account his personal biorhythms. We can only recommend everyone to be more attentive to themselves during full moons. This is especially important for those who have endocrine problems: it is this area that the luminary affects most.”
Religious people take the moon seriously. Most rituals and practices are in one way or another connected with the lunar phases: Christians link the celebration of their main holiday, Easter, with the full moon after the spring equinox, the Orthodox fasts - Petrov and Great - are also calculated in accordance with the lunar calendar. Buddhist Ekadadasa fasts are counted strictly from new and full moons.
“The full moon certainly affects physical and mental health,” confirmed Konchok Chinla. “It’s not for nothing that in all the faiths of the world all important events took place on the full moon. The resurrection of Jesus Christ, the birth, enlightenment and passage into nirvana of Buddha, the birth and death of the prophet Muhammad. Everything you do on a full moon is multiplied many times over: the orgasm will be the most voluptuous, and smoking and alcohol will cause much more harm than on other days.”
Representatives of traditional medicine are usually quite unanimous and agree that:
- on the eve of the full moon it is good to start a course of treatment: the result will appear faster and stronger, but remember that the side effects of the drugs will be more pronounced;
- on the waning moon it is better to do preventive vaccinations: their effect will be delayed in time, but the body will be easier to cope with the by-products of the vaccine;
- tests taken during the full moon will be as reliable as possible;
- but it is better to postpone the operations to another day: the surgeon is also a person, in the light of the full moon it is more difficult for him to show composure and concentration;
- The most important health procedures on a full moon are sea bathing or at least salt baths: they relieve lunar nervousness and nourish the skin with minerals more intensely than on any other day. Logically, mud wraps should have the same beneficial effect.

It shines on our planet with reflected sunlight. Everything hidden, secret, hidden somewhere deep in the subconscious is associated with the Moon. It does not simply and not only revolve around our planet. Both on the physical and on the esoteric, and on the influence of the Moon on a person specifically and on the Earth as a whole. It affects the intuition, psyche, soul, subconscious and mood of a person, his nervous system. Karmic rhythms are also associated with it. Knowledge of lunar cycles can help in solving problems that have accumulated and hidden in the subconscious, protect yourself from unconscious actions, and show an adequate reaction to what is happening.
Orientation in the processes that occur during one lunar month will help you understand why and why various, and sometimes mysterious, events occur in human life. The lunar calendar can explain everything. It is in it that the rhythms of the Moon are recorded. Processes that contribute to the development of the world are repeated every month. Every month, the person who is in the flow can be filled with energy, connect to sources of information and draw from them exactly what he is able to perceive.
He knows the lunar calendar, is well oriented in life and lives calmly, without struggle and tension. The influence of the Moon on a person is manifested in such a way that when a person lives in its rhythms, everything turns out the way he needs, as if by itself, he floats with the flow, and does not resist it. Each lunar day is a hint: what you can cleanse yourself of, what is best to do, and what to take a break from. Having a powerful effect on the human body, the Moon influences its organs and systems at the best time, thereby helping to restore their functioning. After all, even food taken at a certain time serves not only as food, but also as treatment.
The lunar month consists of thirty days. Its beginning is considered to be the new moon, when the Moon begins to move away from the Sun (as seen by an observer from Earth). If this happens at night or in the morning, then the first day of the Moon will be very short, but the lunar month will consist of a full thirty days. If the moment of the new moon falls in the evening or day, then there will be 29 lunar days in the lunar month.
On the first and second lunar days, as well as on the last two days, the Moon comes so close to the Sun that it cannot be seen due to its rays. The influence of the Moon on a person in these dark days is manifested by the emergence of inexplicable fears and self-absorption. People particularly susceptible to this impact should not be left without support. The influence of the Moon on a person on the penultimate and last days of the lunar month also does not bring anything good. On the 28th or 29th lunar day it is easy to become dependent, and the 29th and 30th lunar days, as a rule, bring internal contradictions and suffering due to them. The new moon often threatens loneliness and pessimism. On the second day of the Moon, manifestations of fanaticism are possible, taking any word on faith, there is a danger of suggestion.
The four phases of the lunar month depend on the position of the Moon relative to the Sun. Each of them lasts approximately a week. When the Moon and the Sun are combined, it is a new moon, and when they are opposite, it is a full moon. There are also two more forms of influence of this planet - growing and
The effect on humans has been proven by numerous experiments. So, during the new moon, the metabolic rate in the body increases, and by the full moon it noticeably decreases.
These same days, as well as “satanic” days, are marked by various mental disorders and their consequences.
Another characteristic influence of the Moon on a person is characteristic. It is known that during the full moon and new moon the water level in the world's oceans rises. It turns out that the same effect extends to a person consisting of 70% water.
Living in accordance with lunar rhythms is living in complete harmony and synchronicity with the world.
The waning moon is a special period that can be used to your advantage. How a person reacts to this lunar phase and what is best to do during this period, you will learn from our article.
Our ancestors also noticed that the Moon influences all processes on our planet. Gardeners use the lunar calendar, since the harvest depends on the phase in which our natural satellite is located. The gardener's lunar calendar helps them with this. The water in the oceans and seas of the Earth also depends on the Moon: it literally controls the ebb and flow of the tides. It also affects the condition of people. The waning moon turns out to be one of the calmest phases, and the reasons for this are known. They lie in the state of human energy during this period of the month.
How does the waning moon affect human energy?
Observations by astrologers show that during the waning of the Moon, human energy is gradually depleted and decreases to its lowest level by the New Moon. In nature, for example, the smallest tides are also observed. It would seem that this time should be unfavorable if a person gradually wastes his strength. But in fact, the period of the waning moon is complicated because it also carries positive aspects.
The waning moon is the best time to cleanse, not only your body, but also your spirit. During this period, it is best to analyze your own actions and work on yourself. Rituals for cleansing from magical influences, for example, spells or damage, work well. Esotericists highly recommend carrying out a general cleaning of the home during this period: this also helps to get rid of evil spirits in the house and has a positive effect on a person’s energy. Indeed, in this case, the impact of negative energy on people is reduced.
Human health and the waning moon
The waning phase of the moon also affects human health. First of all, as energy levels decrease, a person becomes more vulnerable to diseases. Heavy physical activity is contraindicated, as it can very easily wear out the body. On the other hand, this time is suitable for all kinds of surgical operations, since less blood will be lost and the body will experience less stress. Moreover, after, when the growth phase of the Moon begins, wounds heal faster.
During this period, you can simply and easily get rid of bad habits. It has also been noticed that hair and nails grow more slowly if they are cut during the waning moon. You can choose the right day for a manicure or get a successful haircut thanks to the lunar calendar. In general, the following rule applies: the more economically you spend your energy, the better.
The emotional state of a person during the waning moon
People become calmer, which helps avoid conflicts. Emotions are quite stable, and there are no strong mood swings. Usually, during the waning phase of the Moon, people become more immersed in themselves, analyzing situations that concern them, and are in search of answers to questions that are important to them. Emotionality may decrease significantly, but this does not mean that a person becomes callous and unresponsive. He just begins to worry more inside himself.
Astrologers recommend engaging in self-knowledge during this period and, if necessary, increasing self-esteem. Often during this period there is a desire to be alone with oneself, and this desire should be succumbed to. It is easy to restore contact within the family, so use the periods of the waning Moon to establish communication with your children.
Also, during the waning moon, money rituals are performed, which really help maintain wealth. Best wishes, and don't forget to press the buttons and

Human energy can be in different states, but any of them affects health and...
The influence of the Moon on humans is not just mysterious myths invented by the people. In our material you will learn how and why the Moon affects a person, and you will also understand at what period you need to pay attention to your health. Let us remind you that we previously wrote about, which may be useful to you.
Why does the Moon affect a person?
There is a lot about how the Moon affects a person. But one thing is certain - depending on the lunar cycle and the lunar phase, our well-being and even health conditions can change. The fact is that the Moon is in constant motion around our planet, it regularly reflects sunlight from different sides of its surface, and this affects human life on planet Earth. Moreover, the Moon has a direct influence on the tides of water - its gravitational field attracts large masses of water, which causes their level to rise.
But let’s return to the issues of the Moon’s influence on humans. The well-being of earth's inhabitants often depends on what phase the Moon is currently in. Therefore, we will talk about this in more detail.
The influence of the moon phases on humans: new moon
The influence of the Moon on a person during the new moon period is expressed in the fact that human energy resources at this time are at a minimum level. Therefore, people may feel lack of strength, weakness and the need for rest. Some people develop unexpected fears and obsessions. Interestingly, men are more susceptible to the influence of the new moon, so during this period they can be irritable and harsh towards those around them.
And if we talk about how the Moon affects a woman on a new moon, then it is worth noting the lethargy and exhaustion in her well-being. Nothing bad happens to her body, but during this period it is better to reduce physical activity and not overdo it. But the new moon is perfect for cleansing the body, so at this time you can start or go on a light diet.

How the phases of the moon affect a person: full moon
The effect of the Moon on a person during the full moon is expressed in the fact that we become more emotional and sensitive. During this period, many suffer from insomnia and increased activity, often feeling that it is difficult for them to sit in one place, especially during a long working day. If men react predominantly to the full moon, then the full moon affects women more, since they are more often guided by their emotions.
During the full moon, chronic diseases often worsen, so every person needs to monitor their health, paying attention to any ailments. There is a widespread belief, which has no scientific evidence, that it is better not to perform any operations during the full moon. They say that blood clotting is worse at this time, so surgical interventions, even minor ones, should be postponed to another time.
They have been trying to study the influence of the phases of the Moon on humans for decades, discovering new interesting facts about how we depend on the Earth’s satellite. In the meantime, scientists are trying to explain many anomalies, we will tell you on a subconscious level.
