DAILY WITCH TIPS

You can also consider surrounding the outside your container with crystals or herbs.

After your Moon Water is charged you can make tea with it and imagine that restorative energy flowing into your body.

If you’re using a Mason jar or similar container just flip it upside down so the lid is on the bottom. Then the Moon energy can shine in through the glass!

If you added crystals the Moon Water might not be safe for consumption. Do your research before adding any crystal to water! Some crystals (Selenite, Malachite, Lapis Lazuli, Fluorite, Calcite, or Labradorite) can dissolve or be damaged by water.
