Besides the northwestern placement, the Moon also influences the bathroom, western windows, the drainage channel, and the sewage system. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to the planning of these areas. The room in the northwestern part of the home should also be bright, and work materials should not be stored in it. A dark and neglected room (in this direction) harms the health of the women living in the home.
One must avoid an entrance in the northwest, because a doorway opening weakens this area and ultimately causes the important energies needed by a person (the energy of the Moon and of the northwest) to flow outward.
A picture or drawing depicting peacocks may be hung in the northwest of the home to add positive energy and joy.
If a person lives alone in a home, the Moon’s influences become stronger.
The Moon changes daily and passes through the same cycle every month anew, and thus its influences also change accordingly. It is recommended to pay attention to the Moon’s changes when working on something.
New Moon – a symbol of new beginnings and a good start for launching a project and advertising new things during this time. At this stage the Moon is still not visible, because it is positioned between the Earth and the Sun.
Waxing Crescent (Birth of the Moon) – a symbol of intention. At this stage the Moon’s light increases, and only a smaller part of the Moon is illuminated. The birth of the Moon carries great meaning for marking festive days in various religions.
First Quarter Moon – a time for making decisions. At this stage one half of the Moon is illuminated, and the other half is in shadow. The Moon can give motivation and the need to achieve something or finish something.
Waxing Gibbous (Almost Full Moon) – a sign of refinement. At this stage the Moon is almost full. This is a good time for discussions, weighing matters, and understanding what to do next.
Full Moon – a sign of release and fulfillment of intentions. At this stage the Moon is again positioned between the Earth and the Sun, and the Sun illuminates it fully. Our intuition becomes sharper at this time; the Moon gives us the ability to see things from a better perspective and to study them. It is a good time to get rid of harmful habits, to heal, to create change, to restart things, and to work in partnership.
Waning Moon – a symbol of gratitude. At this stage the Moon begins to disappear. It is worth reviewing matters during this time. It is a good time for giving thanks.
Last Quarter Moon – a time to let go (this may also be called the third quarter). At this stage the Moon is in the opposite position to the first quarter. It is a good time for calming down and reflecting on new ideas, working on bad habits, letting go of unnecessary things in the home, and ending toxic relationships.
Waning Crescent (Disappearing Moon) – a sign of tranquility. At this stage the Moon is almost invisible. It is a good time for peace, calm, and rest before the beginning of the new month. Therefore, it is not recommended to force oneself to work too hard.
At the next stage, the Moon will begin its journey anew.
