🌙 Moon & Tarot practice
Instead of treating lunar phases as guarantees, use them as a recurring journaling structure:
- New Moon: What intention deserves attention?
- Waxing: What am I developing?
- Full Moon: What has become clearer?
- Waning: What can I release, simplify or stop feeding?
Pair each phase with one card and compare your notes later. The value is in the review, not in assuming the phase causes a particular outcome.
