🌕 Pendulum and the Moon Phases – When to Use It

The Moon has a powerful influence on our emotions, energy levels, and intuition. Just like the tides, our spiritual energy moves in cycles, and aligning your pendulum practice with the lunar phases can make your sessions more insightful and effective.

Let’s explore how the Moon’s rhythm can guide your pendulum work.


🌑 New Moon – Planting Seeds

The New Moon is a time for beginnings, intentions, and fresh energy. It’s the best moment to use your pendulum to ask:

  • “What should I focus on this month?”

  • “What new direction should I explore?”

  • “What’s holding me back from starting fresh?”

Use this phase to set goals, open up to new possibilities, and allow your pendulum to guide your first steps.


🌓 First Quarter – Taking Action

This is a phase of growth and decision-making. Use your pendulum to clarify which actions are aligned with your goals:

  • “Is this the right project to pursue now?”

  • “Should I speak up in this situation?”

Let the pendulum help you overcome hesitation and move forward with confidence.


🌕 Full Moon – Illumination and Release

The Full Moon is the most powerful time for clarity, truth, and letting go. Your pendulum can help you reflect on what’s no longer serving you:

  • “Is it time to release this belief/person/habit?”

  • “What truth am I avoiding?”

You can also use it to perform energy clearing or cord-cutting rituals.


🌗 Last Quarter – Reflection and Integration

The waning moon is a time to pause, reflect, and rest. This is when your pendulum can support inner healing, shadow work, and closure:

  • “What did I learn from this cycle?”

  • “What do I need to forgive?”

Pendulum practice during this phase can feel more subtle, but deeply transformative.


🌙 Final Thoughts

Aligning your pendulum work with the Moon's phases allows you to flow with nature instead of pushing against it. Try journaling your pendulum responses at each moon phase — you might start to notice patterns, synchronicities, or emotional cycles that help you grow spiritually.


📸 Visualization Tip:

Observe a picture of a pendulum being used by moonlight near a window.
Imagine yourself there — calm, focused, connected to the sky.
Your answers don’t always come fast, but when they do, they feel like moonlight: soft, quiet, and honest.
