All the anxiety about hitting points on a timeline, rigidly focusing so much on the tangible thing you want; it’s all ignoring the purpose of self-care in the first place. With intentions, it’s different. There is no roadmap, no sense of failure to be had. Only growth, no matter what. Instead of action, it is the art of inaction, of mindfulness. We set intentions as meaningful commitments, to live our lives as better versions of ourselves. There is no incarnation of material objects. Our hearts and minds are the navigation to finding something within us and sharing it with the world.

Every new moon, we take a moment to consider how we live, and what we can intentionally do to live it better. Over the course of the twenty nine-and-a-half day lunar cycle, you’ll use mindfulness techniques, utilize the art of self-care, and commit to living out your chosen intention. The full moon marks the culmination of your chosen affirmation and is as crucial to intention setting as the new moon. Hence the name, Lunarly.

Intention setting is choosing an intention to carry with you every day. The new moon is the ideal time to start this process, as the lunar cycle will energize your intention over the month.

During the new moon, water is said to be pulled the surface to nourish the roots of the plant. Not that much different from us utilizing mindfulness and manifesting growth. We can see that reflected in our new plant when we incorporate it into our intention setting. It’s just so satisfying to watch our new plant thrive alongside us.

We follow west coast time to make sure everyone gets their Lunarly box in time for the new moon. It’s all good, follow the new moon in your region-- we’re just trying to get everyone their stuff on time for intention-setting.

Like we mentioned, many of the moon names vary depending on what part of the world you might be in. Even here in the U.S., there are variations dependent on where you are in the country, and traditionally, come from Native tribes. For example, the Zuni tribe of New Mexico called April’s moon “the Great Sandstorm moon”, while the Apache tribe of the southern Plains referred to the same moon as “the Moon of Big Leaves”. Both reflect the conditions of their respective regions for the same lunar cycle. [1]

Before we had calendars, most of the world relied on the moon to tell what time of the month it was. The names of the moons are highly regional in nature, and super-dependent on things like agriculture, climate, or religious beliefs.

For the same reason the moon is important! New moon, new you, new, clean state.

Since the beginning of time, humanity’s fascination with the moon has led to innovations in science, spirituality, and so much more. The tides of our ocean are controlled by the moon. Many believe the full moon is connected to weird happenings and strange behaviors. For centuries-- and even today-- farmers sowed their crops using lunar planting guides.

As cool as all these things are, we care about the moon in a different way. We like to use the phases of the moon to guide us in our intention setting practice. Much like our own lives, the moon waxes and wanes. Using the moon as a compass of sorts, we set a path of persistent self-reflection. When we set intentions with the moon, we align with nature-- and all of its peaks and valleys. That’s a good thing.

And that’s why we think you should care about the moon, too.

The candles are 100% vegan. We only use soy wax and none of the fragrances were tested on animals. However, we are not certified vegan even though we do not use any type of animal byproduct because we have not gone through the official process.

Please note that despite our candles being 100% vegan and non-toxic, we do recommend that the candles are kept away from pets so they are not ingested.

We hand pour each candle, using materials 100% made in the USA. These specialty candles are hand poured in Massachusetts.

No! We are proud to create these candles with only the finest materials, natural soy wax that is domestically sourced and high-quality cotton wicks free from any lead or plastics. The candles are paraben, petroleum and phthalate free. Even the glass container is 100% food grade quality and can be repurposed after a thorough wash.

The candles are generally safe for most individuals suffering from allergies. The candles burn clean and the fragrance does not irritate most allergies. As with all candles, the product is not meant to be used outside of its intended purpose, meaning: don’t eat it! Even though they may cause immediate hunger.

Each lovely plant included in your Lunarly box will have a plant care card with care tips, including water, soil, toxicity and light recommendations. 

Check the plant care card first. Any questions? Reach out to us at hello@lunarly.com!

The plant will form new leaves that grow parallel to the light source (not curled). Leaves will be the right size and dark green in color. The plant doesn’t stretch.

Leaves will be small, thin and pale. Stems stretch, causing plant growth to be tall and leggy. The plant will also grow towards the light source available.

Leaves will curl, blister, look yellowish in color (called sun scorching), have brown edges, and will die and fall off. Damage is more severe when combined with lack of water and high temperatures.
