With a new year comes a whole new set of new possibilities and opportunities to practice self-improvement. We suggest devoting some time during a full moon event to really dig deep within as you move through 2023. A full moon typically marks peak time to manifest, release, reflect and practice gratitude — though this can hold different meanings for each of the astrological signs. If you are feeling reflective post-new year and are ready to look to the stars and moon to guide you toward a fresh start, take note of all the full moons occurring in 2023.

What moon phase was I born under?
Though you could become a professional astrologer and calculate the moon phase when you were born, there are tons of online tools that do the work for you.
How do moon phases affect my mood?
The impact of the moon on mental health and mood is not heavily researched, so we can’t say for sure that the two are directly correlated.
Can moon phases affect sleep?
It’s said that the moon can affect certain biological cycles, such as your menstrual cycle. This impact definitely includes your circadian rhythm. Because our bodies are approximately 60% water, and the gravitational pull from the moon is strong enough to control ocean tides, it’s speculated that the moon can affect sleep in humans.
