    • Wearing black or other dark colors will have the opposite effect on the Moon’s energy, so stick to whites and brights when you’re planning your outfits. [4]
    • Transparent, bluish-white represents the planet Venus. Wear really solid whites, like clouds or snow, to make sure you’re channeling the Moon specifically.

    Fast on the Moon’s day, Monday, for good luck, especially if there will be a full moon that night. Only eat at nighttime or in the early morning before the sun rises, and drink lots of water to stay hydrated throughout the day. Break the fast by eating a white dish like kheer (a type of pudding made from milk, rice, and sugar). [10]
    • If you have to eat something during the daytime, make sure it is a white food (but no salt).
    • Ask your doctor or a healthcare professional about fasting if you’re worried it will negatively impact your health.

    • Meditate in silence, or try chanting a Moon Mantra or prayer to Lord Shiva for the strongest connection to the Moon.
    • Reflect on your emotional needs while you meditate as a form of self-care. The Moon controls your inner emotions and will help you find balance and solutions to any inner turmoil. [13]

    Treat your mother with respect and follow her wishes and advice if you feel symptoms of a weak Moon. Disobeying or arguing with her will cause more bad luck. Show the Moon your good relationship by sitting with your mother during purnamasi (a full moon) and chanting a Moon Mantra or a prayer to Shiva together. [14]
    • If you’re dining with your mother, eat with your own hands. Bad luck will follow if you let your mother feed you instead of accepting the Moon’s nourishing food directly.

    Offer prayers to Lord Shiva, especially in direct moonlight or during a full moon, to earn both his and the Moon’s blessings. For help overcoming specific obstacles in your life, recite the Shiv Chalisa (a hymn dedicated to Shiva) while focusing on the problem you want to solve. [15]
    • To strengthen your Shiv Chalisa, look at a picture of Shiva while you speak and try to be as focused and sincere as possible.
    Donna Cunningham, Astrologer

    The Moon governs our emotions, intuition, and inner life. To improve the effects of your natal Moon in astrology, nurture self-care rituals that align with the Moon's cycles. Keep a dream journal, spend time in nature, and process your feelings through creative outlets. When the Moon is full, set clear intentions. By understanding and working in sync with lunar energy, you can achieve deep emotional balance.
