Floral moon water – a seasonal twist on the classic moon water.

This gentle elixir blends the soothing, mystical energy of the moon with the fresh, vibrant magic of spring or summer flowers. Think of it as the moon’s older, more sophisticated cousin – perfect for boosting your beauty rituals, glamour magick, and self-love practices.

Floral moon water is surprisingly simple to make, and it’s a lovely practice for staying attuned to the seasonal blooms in your area and aligning with the magick inherent in the world around you.

Let’s begin…

The gentle magick behind floral moon water

Moon water, in its most basic form, is water charged under the full or waxing moon, soaking up all that celestial energy. When you infuse that water with the essence of flowers, you’re layering your intention with an extra burst of floral frequency.

Every flower has its own personality and energy, and when the moon’s energy meets the flowers’ properties, you get a unique elixir full of power and purpose.

What makes floral moon water extra special is that it doesn’t only contain lunar energy. It carries the magick of about the season – the lushness of spring, when the flowers are blooming and everything feels alive.

The moon and the flowers work together, creating an elixir that’s as much about natural magick as it is about self-care.

How to create your floral moon water

Before you begin, take a moment to connect with your flowers and the moon’s energy.

Remember, thorough research on the plant materials is essential to ensure they’re safe and appropriate for your intended use.

The moon and the blossoms will amplify the energy you bring to the process.

What you’ll need:

• A glass jar or bottle (clear or coloured)
• Spring water (filtered or purified is best)
• Fresh or dried flowers of your choice (more on that below)
• A strainer
• A dark glass bottle for storing your floral moon water

1 Pick your flowers

Choose flowers that match the magick you want to manifest.

Each bloom has its own special power.

Take your time with this step—really feel the energy of the flowers. Are you looking for love, abundance, or a little clarity? The flowers will guide you. You can use a single flower or a mix of different blossoms, depending on what feels right.

2. Fill your jar with water

Pour spring water into your glass jar. Leave some space at the top so the flowers can float and move within the water. 

3. Add your flowers

Gently place your flowers into the water. Fresh or dried, either works, but fresh flowers will give off a stronger and more vibrant energy. As you add them, focus on the energy each flower carries. Visualize your intention coming to life with each petal you add to the jar.

4. Set under the moon

Now, the fun begins! Place your jar outside (or on a windowsill where the moonlight can reach it) under the full or waxing moon. The moon will infuse the flowers and water with its magical energy overnight. This is the time for the moon to do its work—trust that it will.

5. Strain and store

Before the sun rises, bring your jar inside. Strain the flowers out of the water.

Store your finished floral moon water in a dark glass bottle to preserve its potency and energy. Keep it cool and out of direct sunlight for maximum power.

6. Use and enjoy

Now, your elixir is ready to be used! Floral moon water is perfect for anointing your body, using in spells, beauty rituals, and glamour magick or simply keeping on your altar as a reminder of the power of the moon and the earth.

** A word of caution – if you plan to drink it or use it in food, make sure the flowers you choose are safe for consumption.
