Want to grow your spiritual business with more flow and ease? Then do as the ancients did–select key business dates (i.e. launch dates, webinars, live events, courses, retreats etc) that align with the cycles of the moon. 

In this post, we’ll teach you how to plan out your business launch calendar for optimal success, according to the moon cycles. 

Why Is the Moon Powerful?

Lunar energy creates more flow and ease, which means your business can go from striving to thriving. 

Each month (which comes from the word moon by the way) has its unique flow, its own astrology, and its own business benefits. You can either go with the “flow” or swim “against” the tides.

Speaking of tides, fishermen have always known that during the full moon and new moon, they’ll have the biggest catch. This is called ‘moon-phase fishing’ due to the moon’s effect on the tides and aquatic life, allowing the fish to see better and to feed nocturnally. 

This is the same for spiritual entrepreneurs who are soulfully “fishing” for success, whether it be for likes, views, clients, prospects, or new leads.

To create an abundant and profitable business, every smart spiritual entrepreneur will want to utilize the power of the moon’s cycles. 

What Is the Lunar Cycle?

A full lunar cycle happens for 29.5 days and as the moon happens in 8 phases, 4 are “yin” and 4 are “yang.” 

Yin phases or “active” moons are connected with the feminine energy which are great for “feeling into things” so you can reflect and restore; while Yang phases or “receptive” moons are connected with masculine energy which is good for taking action and getting things done.

Moon Phases for Business

New Moon (New Beginnings) “Yang”

• Keep manifestations in your mind or write them in a journal or using a new moon manifestation worksheet (click here to download our free Moonifestation Playsheet PDF).

Even if there are 8 moon phases, focus on the 4 main phases.

• New Moon
• First Quarter
• Full Moon
• Last Quarter

As root chakra deals with our foundation of existence and how we see the world, it greatly impacts our relationships. Therefore, Twin Flames must ground this foundation first in order to heal trust issues, and open the upper chakras necessary for a full-pledged Twin Flame Connection. 

Twin Flame love is like a rose–the heart cannot ground in a swampy root!

Unfortunately most people today are dealing with some serious self-love and self-esteem issues. For instance, in a recent study by Dove, they found that only 4% of women see themselves as beautiful. 

Self-love and Twin Flame energies start at the root, and we must heal all the chakras. So, it’s important to start your healing journey at the foundation: the root chakra. 

What exactly is the root chakra?

The root chakra is our connection to Gaia, aka Mother Earth and her energies that empower our bodies and beings. It allows us to stay grounded so we feel safe, secure, centered, and happy in our bodies. It also connects us with our ancestors, the ones who have gone before us. 

The root chakra is connected to our survival energies, to abundance, to finances, and if we have unhealthy root chakras we are in lack, poverty, and survival mode. Many Twin Flames are healers who were taught to take vows of poverty, where money was “the root of all evil.” Such Twin Flames must clear their root chakras and their belief systems around money in order to create a strong foundation for their lives and Twin Flame Unions. 

What is the root chakra symbol?

The symbol of the root chakra is composed of a four-petaled lotus flower, often stylized as a circle with four petals with a downward-pointing triangle.

What are the signs you have an unhealthy root chakra?

How to heal your root chakra

The root chakra is the bridge between your soul and body, where the energy you supply to your body makes your body whole. If you have an unhealthy body and soul, your root chakra is suffering. 

You’ll want to heal yourself with these methods…

• Have an affirmation – Light an incense stick, be on a calm and comforting side of your house and meditate while chanting your affirmations.

(insert affirmation here)

• You and the environment – Enjoy the outside, be open with your surroundings, and be barefoot on the land if you want. Breathe in and out, connect with the ground and you’ll feel recharged.

• Have a warm bath – Select your favorite grounding organic essential oils (such as patchouli, cedarwood, sandalwood, thieves, grounding, and frankincense), adding a few drops into your bath water within a base oil such as organic coconut oil; add sea salt or epsom salt to ease and detox your body. Just unwind. Breathe in the grounding from the essential oils, and breathe out the negativity you’re done with.

• Exercise – Do yoga, walk, dance, or whatever you want to perspire and ground. Be happy being active. Enjoy the freedom of moving your body, be carefree and just enjoy what you’re doing!

• Journalize – List all your fears and whatever makes you worry. Once you’ve accepted that you’re vulnerable and flawed (you’re human!), you can tap into love, and then your fears will lessen.

• Eat healthy “root” or “grounding” foods – Vegetables (especially root veggies like potatoes, yams, radishes, turnips, carrots) and fruits that come from the ground will increase your root chakra and feminine Yin energies. So enjoy baked veggies, green smoothie with kale, avocado, and banana, and enjoy every bite or sip, thanking Mama Earth for the bounty you’ve received.

• Have “red” stones or crystals – As red is the color associated with root chakra, it is advised to place red root chakra stones and crystals around your house. Jasper, agate, garnet, red carnelian. Bloodstones, hematite or any stones that are color red will help you (and thus your Twin Flame Union) to ground.

• Red, red, and red – Red clothing, red accessories, red flowers, or anything red that can be near you if possible can heal your root chakra. Twin Flames will want to buy themselves red roses at some point if they find themselves single and ready to find true love!

• Let go and move forward – Declutter – remove anything negative it may be things or even people who are toxic. Understand that you can be happy without negativity coming from anything or anyone. Let go of negativity and breathe in positivity.

• Have intimacy – Surround yourself with people you can trust. Go slowly into relationships, and seek counseling, meditation, and journal when you realize that you have walls up. Engage in intimacy, don’t hold back in sharing your true feelings; when you feel safe, let another person touch you intimately and surrender all fears. Don’t worry about rejection–ask for what you need and desire. Just enjoy the feeling and release the stress! That is the foundation of a Twin Flame relationship.

What is the effect of the root chakra on Twin Flames?

As root chakra deals with your foundation of existence, how you see yourself and others, which affects your relationships. 

If this foundation is lacking in trust and love, then you’ll be dealing with self-love and self-esteem issues in your Twin Flame partnership. If someone’s sense of belonging is weak, that’s why they don’t believe that they’re capable of loving another person or being loved. 

Single and struggling? Spend the time working on your Twin Flame root chakra!

Try to open yourself to other people, unwind, make friends, and eventually have an understanding of having a Twin Flame Love to be with you always. As your Twin Flame will also understand you and be open to your flaws then you should also be accepting. 

Ditch the fear of rejection, lose the fear of uncertainty, and just accept your beautiful loving heart. A love that is true and unconditional, that’s what everyone needs, and so do you.

In summary, if your root chakra is blocked and unhealthy, you’ll feel it and have many of the signs above. But once that blockage are gone and released, all the love, acceptance, and compassion will flow through you and then to you. You’ll have a broader understanding of people, of partnership, and most of all of yourself. 

You’ll eventually accept that you can’t handle or control everything, and with that realization you’ll live feeling both secure and carefree, and will attract deep love to you from a solid grounding.

What was once a man’s world…

Even feminist women feel feel like they can’t escape the subconscious programs running in their minds telling them they can’t achieve anything in life they don’t go into agreement with the values and expectations of the old “masculine world.” 

Even the most sensitive men are expected to be strong and taught to ignore their emotional sides. They don’t know how to approach women without seeming sleazy, and gender roles are blurry. 

In order to create healthy, happy communities and relationships (especially the highest vibrational “Twin Flame relationship”), feminine and masculine energy must work together as a whole. 

Stating that one energy is stronger or better than the other is wrong; both male and female energy are necessary for balance. It’s important to understand what feminine energy is, so we can build it and balance it with the masculine.

Ten Ways to Boost Your Feminine Energy

Feminine energy is a powerful healing energy that allows us to open to receiving. Feminine, referred to as yin energy in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is an energy that tends to be more calm, compassionate, and caring.

Without the feminine, we’re in trouble…

Everyone–both men and women–have masculine or feminine energy, and that these energies must be balanced.  Many people, even women, are lacking feminine energy (or are hiding their feminine side) in the overly-masculine world. 

In the modern world, women are expected to be more nurturing, soft, and beautiful while being successful and sexy. We’re expected to be mothers and CEO, romantics and leaders. The past history where women were once suppressed is crumbling as women quickly break the chains. We are calling out old behaviors, creating #metoomovements, and are stepping away from the patriarchy.

Truly, the feminine is rising.

Where do I find feminine energy?

We can find feminine energy in the Earth, especially in water sources such as lakes, springs, oceans, rivers, wells, and streams. Drinking crystalline water or meditating by bodies of water instantly boosts our feminine energy.

Feminine energy is an internal “yin” energy, thus we can find it in stillness. During deep thought and meditation we can embrace, boost our feminine energy to radiate confidence. 

Feminine energy is the love that the Universe has blessed you with, and as a daughter (or son) of Mama Gaia (Mother Earth), we are all abundant in Her medicine. Mother Earth is very loving, nourishing, and yet powerful, as is feminine energy. 

Feminine energy is healing

With our own individual and unique feminine energy intact, we can heal from insecurity, self-doubt, low self-worth, and past traumas. 

Many girls and women are being called to enhance their feminine energy at this time because the majority of females have struggled with self-worth issues at some point in their lives.

Clinical psychologist Robin F. Goodman of New York University states: 

“A girl’s self-esteem peaks when she is 9 years old, and then takes a nosedive afterwards.”

We can more quickly heal from self-esteem issues by boosting our feminine energy. The feminine energy can heal internal and generational wounds so we can embody the goddess within.

Tips to Boost Your Feminine Energy

In summary, embracing your feminine energy is not only important for balance in your life, but also in creating balance in the world. Take your time with it, enjoy it, indulge a little. Finding your Yin Yang is an art, definitely worth finding and once you’ve started understanding that you are on your way to transition, you’ll love the feeling of self-confidence and beauty from within.
