Effects of Moon Phases on Emotions



Can we actually be affected by the moon🤔? According to Vedic astrology, the moon has a significant influence on our emotions. In this article, we discuss the moon's phases and how closely they relate to our emotions.

Have you ever felt restless and anxious on days when the moon is full? Or perhaps a sense of hopelessness with the new moon? Even though they are temporary, such effects may be miniature representations of the moon's impact on our bodies and minds.


It is well known that the Moon has an impact on water bodies, creating tides of varying strengths. And because 70% of human bodies are made up of water, the moon's gravitational pull also has an impact on how much water is in each of our bodies. Our body's water balance is off, which causes confusion and emotional inactivity in our minds.


Astrologers believe that the Moon governs our thoughts and emotions, hence it has an impact on our emotions. It establishes our psychological capacity and capacity to manage our sensations and emotions. It represents our most fundamental desires, routines, and responses and regulates both our subconscious and conscious minds.


So, What moods can you expect from the moon?🙆


There are 8 stages to the moon cycle, and they are all contained inside the 29.5 days that make up the full moon cycle. New moon, waxing crescent, first-quarter moon, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, third-quarter moon, and waning crescent are the eight phases or stages of the moon.


Due to the moon role in your horoscope, we often hold certain emotions and secret feelings to ourselves rather than expressing them. We do, however, experience it deeply and soulfully. Your natural attributes and inner requirements are determined by your moon sign, which is the position of the moon in the zodiac sign at the time of your birth. However, you are regularly impacted more directly and significantly by the Moon's changing phases.


  • The moon's prospects for growth increase your patience and natural sensibility while bringing about the positive signals of happiness, mental calmness, and sympathy.

  • Anxiety and unwanted worry are more likely to occur when the Moon is in a negative sign. It may cause anxiety, depression, and even suicidal thoughts.

  • The Moon also has a feminine aspect that brings out your maternal instincts and connects your feelings to your memory.

  • The Moon is loved and worshipped in order for it to properly direct our subconscious, paying attention to pleasant feelings and emotions.

  • In order for the Moon to correctly guide our subconscious, paying attention to pleasurable experiences and emotions, it is adored and revered.

  • Our conscious, unconscious, and subconscious minds all store their memories, experiences, thoughts, and thought patterns under the influence of the Moon. As a result, there is a buildup of resentment, annoyance, rage, and frequently a condition of mindlessness.

When there is a full moon, the Moon is at its most powerful. We often experience increased anxiety toward life and everything around us when our energies are at extremely high levels.

The lunar calendar, sometimes referred to as the Panchanga, is used by Hindus. The Panchang details both lucky and unlucky days, as well as all current dates and events. This lunar calendar, which adjusts for the moon cycle, serves as the foundation for all Hindu holidays.

The Moon's cycle and its effect on our emotional well-being:


🌙New Moon

The New Moon is frequently a blank slate and denotes a new beginning. It is ideal for new beginnings, whether it be learning a new skill, establishing a new job, or even making a new decision. The Sun and Moon are both on one side of the earth (0 to 45° from the Sun) when the new moon occurs. Darkness is the key term here because this is the time of day when the Moon does not reflect any light. Our other senses are expanded by this darkness, and the range of possibilities increases.


This inspiring energy that the New Moon gives upon us lasts for roughly 14 days, or until the Moon reaches its fullest brightness. The Sun and Moon are not in opposition at this moment, thus there are no conflicts between the two bodies. You get a new beginning and feel calm and motivated throughout the new moon cycle. 


🌒Waxing Crescent (typically lasts 7 days)

The first quarter of the Moon occurs after the New Moon phase, when it is 45° to 90° from the Sun. It is the first phase leading up to the Full Moon. Our senses are all more acute despite the fact that it is still dark, which helps us finish the good work we had already begun. The greatest time to organise and start your work for the future is now. You will deliver your work on time, be motivated and enthusiastic, and fulfil your goals and intents.


🌓First-Quarter Moon

When the Moon is between 90° and 135° from the Sun, it is at its first quarter. You may feel impulsive, impatient, and highly busy during this lunar phase. Your ambitions and desires could encounter opposition and discouragement, especially if they haven't materialised yet. This is a season of activation, but it's also a time when you need to master your passions, assume responsibility, and be in charge. It's time to evaluate your development and clearly state your ambitions.


🌖Waxing Gibbous (typically lasts 5 days)

The Moon is between 135° and 180° from the Sun at this time. A broader perspective and knowledge are possible at this moment. This is the time for planning, preparation, and effective execution based on your intuition and insight. We need to be more adaptable because the waxing Gibbous Moon may cause a temporary setback in our forward motion. We must make extremely careful adjustments in order to renew and reorganize our goals.


🌕Full Moon

When the Moon is between 180° and 225° from the Sun, it is said to be full. As they are on opposite sides, the Sun and Moon are putting immense pressure on each other. The emotions are at their highest right now. During this period, you are prone to feeling stressed and overwhelmed. You could also come out as irritated and snappy. Additionally, the full moon can occasionally alter your sleeping habits. Our egos and emotional states are at their height. To get through this emotional outburst, it is necessary to let go of any hatred or anxiety and cultivate patience and calmness.


🌖Waning Gibbous (typically lasts 5 days)

The Moon's distance from the Sun ranges from 225° to 270° while it is in the waning Gibbous phase. It represents introspection and rebirth. You will develop a strong sense of self at this time, which will serve as the foundation for your personal development. It's up to you how you want to use this energy, although you'll probably want to change for the better and have room to expand. It's also time to break poor habits and stop thinking negatively while you attempt to achieve your objectives and successes.


🌗Third-Quarter Moon

The Moon will be between 270° and 315° from the Sun at this time. The moon cycle is currently in its final quarter. The moon appears like a half circle and is lighted. Now is the time to make your dreams come true. It expresses your goals and serves as an internal reflection to help you reach your maximum potential. You will be prepared to set aside all of your bad feelings and desire to rid your life of negativity.


🌘Waning crescent moon (7 days)

The Moon will be at a distance of 315° to 360° from the Sun during this final part of the lunar cycle. You'll experience stability and peace thanks to the Sun and Moon's combined powers. You'll develop thoughtfulness and a growth mindset. You will need to accept these emotions as a time for self-reflection because every lunar cycle offers an opportunity to evolve. The moon is once again rejuvenated as it nears the end of its cycle.


Therefore, each of us is impacted by these 8 lunar phases and their unique spheres of influence. Through the highs and lows of life, we are sustained by the energy that the Moon reflects.
