What's The Difference Between Full Moon And New Moon Energy?
By ANNA DENSON
The moon is a powerful force that influences who you are, and your moon sign represents your inner self and is tied to your intuition and subconscious. You’ll have certain emotions during a new moon versus a full moon, and you may feel a strong lunar influence on your life during one of these endpoints.
A new moon represents fresh beginnings, so this is the perfect time to self-reflect and plant new seeds, whether it’s a new relationship or a new habit. In astrology, the sun and moon are in conjunction during a new moon, which unifies and intensifies each of their influences, so use this powerful momentum to set new goals, meditate for inspiration, and journal.
A full moon represents completion, fulfillment, and closure, and astrologer Jasmin Alejandrez-Prasad says, “This is a time of releasing, welcoming closure and allowing things to complete.” A full moon welcomes strange occurrences and heightened emotional activity which can help you understand what is causing disruptions in your life.
