Magical Waters

Moon Water

Creating Moon Water: Put clean water into a clear container like a mason jar, but even a plastic bottle with the label removed will work, then seal the container so no contaminant and/or bugs get in it. Charge the water under the moon by leaving it outside, or at least in a place where it will get direct moonlight. Retrieve the water the next day. Doing so before the sun touches it is most optimal. We’re not making Sun Water.  Incorporating ritual important to your path is perfectly acceptable.

Uses for Moon Water: ritual cleansing and spell work, particularly involving magic and occult knowledge, dream work, and astral travel.

Sun Water

Creating Sun Water: Follow the directions for Moon Water but instead charge in sun light by placing outside when the sun rises and retrieving before the sun sets, making sure to place the container where it will be under direct sunlight for the entirety of the day.

Uses for Sun Water: Ritual cleansing and spell work, particularly involving self esteem, social anxieties, truth and revealing of lies, and enlightenment

Ocean Water

Creating Ocean Water: Collect ocean water. You can create your own ocean water by using tap water (the calcium deposits in tap water are important in recreating Ocean Water. Then add sand and sea salt. Mix the water in a mason jar or other clear container that has a lid. Shake the water and place it outside in the evening. Leave it where it will catch both direct moon and sun light. Shake the mason jar every morning and every evening and leave it outside for an entire moon phase. For many, they might find recreated Ocean Water to be less powerful/charged than the real thing but for some they might find this an adequate replacement, allowing them to utilize a material they don’t have ready access to.

Uses for Ocean Water: Spell work, particularly involving Healing, Psychic Work, and adapting to changes. 

Shadow Water

Creating Shadow Water: Place water in a container that is not clear, such as metal reusable water bottles. Then place the water in a dark area such as the back of a closet, perhaps even buried. Leave the water for about a week (or perhaps a number important to you in your path) but more than one day is important.

Uses for Shadow Water: Spell work including strengthening of lies, encouraging believability,  protection via the hiding of location, and general shrouding. These spells are often conducted in the dark.

Gutter Water

Creating Gutter Water: Not created but gathered. Collect dirty water from the street. I suppose you could create Gutter Water by placing water in a container and mixing in dirt, oil, hair, flakes of skin, tire tread, pebbles…various other nasties. You might wish to wear gloves while procuring Gutter Water.

Uses for Gutter Water: Curses. Also for before and after type spells by using the gutter water to represent current state and clean water to represent intended future state.

How to Make and Use Moon Water

 natural-magics

Moon water is water that has been cleansed in moonlight and charged with the moon’s energy. Making moon water is simple. Full moons and super moons are considered by many to be excellent times to make moon water, though the phases of the moon have different magical and spiritual associations and you may want to consider this when making it.

How to Make Moon Water:

  • fill a clear container with water – spring water is ideal, tap is okay
  • seal the container
  • place it outside or on a windowsill where moonlight will shine on it
  • (optional) recite a chant over the water to bless it and/or dedicate it to a specific purpose
  • leave the container out from just after sunset to just before sunrise
  • you’ve made moon water!

Optional Ingredients:

  • crystals, such as clear quartz or rose quartz 
  • sea salt
  • a few drops of essential oil
  • herbs and flowers (chamomile, lavender, mint, etc)
  • rain water or melted snow can be put out in moonlight (making the water better suited for storm witchcraft or winter witchcraft, should you practice these things) – I suggest straining it and not ingesting it

Some Uses for Moon Water:

  • cleanse your hands with it before spells and rituals
  • cleanse/purify ritual tools, crystals and other items
  • fill a spray bottle with it for cleansing spray
  • consume it for energy
  • use it in cooking and making teas
  • consume it prior to divination, to enhance your intuition
  • use it to add a kick to spells, charms or witchy brews/drinks/foods
  • sprinkle it around the perimeter of your home and/or altar space for cleansing and purification
  • use it to represent water (the element) on your altar and/or on a shrine for a lunar/or water associated deity
  • wash your hair with it
  • water your plants with it 
  • fill a vial with moon water and wear it for protection/energy/intuition/etc
  • use it in any spell that calls for water and/or has lunar associations (if you’re not sure how to implement it into a spell, just keep a bowl of it nearby to benefit from its presence)
  • combine it with herbs and/or essential oils for a cleansing bath or charm
  • whatever you can think of, really, just be smart and safe with it

If you plan to consume your moon water and you want to add crystals to it, ALWAYS use tumbled stones. Raw/rough stones may leave behind shards or toxic debris that can cause harm if taken internally. It’s important to know the chemical composition of the crystal(s) you’d like to use as even some tumbled stones should not be used, such as malachite or fluorite (the resulting water would be toxic). Here is a list of such minerals

Crystals can be placed on top of the container while it’s in the moonlight. You can also tie symbolic things to the bottle with ribbon or twine, such as charms (pentacle, triskele, moons, etc), flowers, etc.

If you happen to feel more called to the sun than the moon in your practice, all you have to do is put the water out in daylight for about 30 minute
