Welcome to the show.

Kyra Howearth 3:05
Hey, do you have it, it’s so great to be here today.

Gianna Diggs 3:08
So I’m so excited about our talk today, because what you’re going to talk about is something that I have started to do. And I’m excited to share with our audience. And we’re going to talk about Manifesting with the Moon. And like I said, I’ve I’ve kind of started working with the moon a little bit more in my life and my business. So I’m anxious to hear what you’re gonna talk about. So my first question to you is on what is Moon manifesting? And like, explain how does it work?

Kyra Howearth 3:36
Yeah, okay, so moon manifesting, I define as manifesting your goals, like really bringing your goals into reality by using the moon cycle as your guide. So how it works. I’ve written a whole book about Moon manifesting, which really goes into detail about how to really harness the energy of the moon. But in a nutshell, it’s always starting at the new moon, setting your intention, setting your goals at the new moon, and then following a process to bring those goals and intentions into your life into your reality. So it’s a very sort of magical way, I guess, of goal setting and getting what you want in life.

Gianna Diggs 4:24
Oh, I love that. Because I think a lot of times with goal setting, it’s always very masculine. And I feel like when you bring the moon in it, you bring the feminine into it. And so I love you know, you started with the new moon and you kind of move into the cycle. So, so that’s kind of cool. So let’s talk about some pitfalls, right? When you’re starting to manifest with the moon, but what are some common mistakes that someone could make, like when they’re trying to get started or even once they start, like, what mistakes can people make when they’re Manifesting with the Moon?

Kyra Howearth 4:57
Yeah, so the biggest mistake that I see people make when they start to manifest with the moon. And I definitely made the same mistake when I started is that we tend to kind of set our intentions on the new moon and expect for them to magically manifest. But the reality is that it’s not just going to magically manifest for you, you’ve got to do the work. And so yeah, that’s probably the biggest mistake like setting those intentions and then forgetting about them and just waiting for them to manifest. Yeah, there’s, there’s work involved. And that’s where the moon cycle can be a really helpful guide, because when you’re working with those different phases after the new moon, it guides you through the process of those things that you should be doing, so that you can bring those intentions into your life. So yeah, that’s probably the biggest mistake I see. Is that, yeah, that people feel like yeah, it’s just gonna manifest really magically. But yeah, there’s that work involved. The other thing that I see is that sometimes we can get really sort of caught up in like, I guess expecting things to flow a certain way. So we might feel, okay, I’m going to set my intentions on this new moon is going to manifest by the full moon, that sort of thing, I’m going to do all this work, and it’s going to happen. But sometimes the universe has a bigger plan for us. And I think sometimes we can, like, you know, get really depressed or whatever. Because, you know, our goals aren’t manifesting. And, yeah, that’s, that’s probably one of the other biggest mistakes I see people make is like, oh, you know, it didn’t work. I mean, manifesting doesn’t work. But sometimes we just have to take a step back and kind of look at the bigger picture and maybe realize that, you know, this wasn’t the right timing for that thing to manifest in your life. And, yeah, just trust that the universe has a better plan for us.

Gianna Diggs 6:59
I think it’s because we, uh, we live in a like, instant gratification society. And so, you know, people, they want it now. But I think the first thought of someone who, you know, I’m not as great as you are, but someone who tries to work with the moon is just thinking of it in terms of six months, right? Because you have like, the new moon, and then the full moon of the same sign is usually what, like six months later, right. So maybe, like, that’s the first thing that came to my mind when you said it. I was like, Oh, well, you know, it’s because we want it now. But realistically speaking, on each one of your manifestations, you know, it doesn’t have to take that long, but that cycle is usually what, like six months, right?

Kyra Howearth 7:39
Yeah. And I’m glad that you brought that up. Because, yeah, sometimes like something that I do see with people when they start Moon manifesting is that they’ll set their intentions on the new moon and expect for them to manifest by the full moon that falls only two weeks later after that new moon. But like you said, like we have, like the new moon in, you know, whatever sign it is, like, we’ve just had the New Moon in Libra recently. And so the intentions that you set at that new moon, they may not manifest until the Full Moon in Libra six months later. And with that, that longer term sort of Outlook, it can really make it easier for those things to manifest rather than like that instant gratification, like what we’re all so used to in this day and age,

Gianna Diggs 8:26
right? Yeah, I’m glad you said that. Because we, it’s so hard to just like, Okay, I want this thing. And then you’re like, what, where’s this thing? Okay, universe, you know, maxi for this thing, and you still don’t receive it. So, I love the idea of, you know, knowing that, okay, we know there’s going to be a full moon and a new moon in the same sign at some point. We use that six months to really, that’s when you can kind of see the combination of the work that you that you brought up earlier that you’re doing. Yeah, so now how could you use Moon manifesting in your business?

Kyra Howearth 9:01
Oh, my goodness, I I’m like really obsessed with using rain manifesting in my business. So apart from like, what I do is like, you know, Moon manifesting work, but I’m also a business astrologer. So I’m like, it’s so focused on business all the time. So whenever I’m like setting my new moon intentions, you can be sure without a doubt, there’s something in there about my business. So I remember last year, something quite specific that I manifested with the moon. I had a podcast and I was like using a really dodgy microphone setup. And it just annoyed me so much. And I was like, Okay, I’m gonna manifest a new microphone for my podcast. So that was like, literally what I did. I sat down the new mean, I was like, okay, my intentions are to manifest a new microphone. And yeah, like I manifested that with them being and Joby to walk you through exactly what I did with that, because that might be helpful. Yes, yes, go ahead. Yesterday, I think like, yeah, this story is going to show you like exactly how many manifesting can work like without, like, you know, waiting for things to just magically manifest. So I set those intentions. And then the next step is during the waxing crescent phase is to plan like, you know, do some research or, like, look into what it is that you’re going to manifest. So I did some research into the different podcast microphones, like what was recommended, read some reviews, looked at prices and stuff. And so I figured out, okay, I need to manifest this much money, so I can buy this microphone that I want. And then I figured out, okay, this is how I can make this much money, whatever. And then the first quarter moon, which is the next phase is all about taking action. And so the most obvious action step was for me to just buy this microphone. I by that stage, I had the money right there in my account, and I was like, Okay, I’m just gonna buy this microphone. And so I pretty much had it by the full moon, like from the from the new moon, like, you know, setting those intentions. Two weeks later, I literally had this microphone. And it was through setting us through like, yeah, Manifesting with the Moon. Even though I went out and bought it, I wouldn’t have done that, if I hadn’t have, you know, sat down and set those intentions and went through this process of researching and everything. So yeah, like, that’s a really practical way of how I use Moon manifesting in my business, like I think about, like the things I want in my business, like if there’s a certain income level I want to reach or if there’s new equipment I need, or a certain number of clients or whatever it might be, I’ll set those intentions on the new moon and follow that process through so that I can get on track to manifesting that.

Gianna Diggs 11:52
I love that example. Because it’s very practical. And the whole time we were talking, I was thinking of how in trying to look at Moon manifesting and maybe learn it from a few different people. And think of like these huge big things, and just the combination of how you use the phase of like, okay, this is what I want, okay, this is how I’m using this place this space to plan it. And, you know, go through all the motions, and now I actually have it by the full moon. And that was, that’s practical. And I love practical examples, because I feel like, you know, people, there’s a lot of people out there that use astrology use Moon magic in their business. And at times, I feel like they give all the examples, but it’s not practical. So I’m very glad that you gave a very practical example. I was thinking, Are there any other examples that you can use that you can give us like success stories, maybe maybe planning a program or something a little more? You know, of course, your podcast is a part of your business with something else, like a program or a launch or something similar to that?

Kyra Howearth 13:00
Yeah. Oh, well, I yeah, I’ve really lost track of like, all of the different things I’ve manifested. But one of the things that really stands out in my life was probably one of the first things that I manifested with the moon. And this was going back about six years ago now. And I was pregnant with my fourth baby. And as you know, like when you have kids, you need to get a bigger car, the bigger your family gets. And so I was driving like a little skyline, like a really tiny little five seater. And I was like, Okay, I’m definitely not gonna fit on my kids in this car, I need to upgrade to a seven seater. And so I set that intention on the new moon. And yeah, just you know, pretty much forgot about it went about my life. And I think later that week, I was driving along the main road to my town, and there was this car for sale. It was a seven seater. It was exactly what I needed. And it was so cheap. And so I called my husband I was like, Oh, come have a look at this car. Whenever you drive past. See what you think. I didn’t like I wasn’t like 100% Sure. That was the car I needed. Anyway, so I went back home. That afternoon, my husband drives home in this car, he had literally just gone out and bought it. And it was just like, Wow, thanks universe, like, it was just like, literally, like right there. Like, as I was driving passes exactly what I’d asked for and, and then yeah, the universe just delivered. And so that was probably like the turning point in my life where I was like, you know, there’s something in this moon manifesting when you ask for something. When you ask for what you want, then the universe will, you know, put it in your life somewhere and make it accessible for you?

Gianna Diggs 14:49
Yeah, I think the first thought was like the belief. The belief and also surrender is what two words came to mind when you were speaking. Yeah, because I I think that a lot of people, if they’re not seeing it, it’s like, Oh, it doesn’t work. And it’s because one, they’re not surrendering to the universe to say, You know what, this is what I want, and I and I know you’re going to deliver it, so I’m going to just let it be. So they’re either not doing that, or they’re just like, you know, they can’t, again, let it go and just let let it flow in. They’re thinking about it. 24/7. And it’s like, on their mind, they’re like, when is it gonna happen and being crazy about it, as opposed to just relaxing in their intention that they said that the universe is gonna deliver? Because I’m just like, wow, okay, you. You wanted a new car, you needed a bigger car. And in the end, it came. And I think, you know, with manifesting in general, people are so what’s the word? I’m trying to say? People can doubt it, because they’re, they’re not realizing that their energy isn’t aligning with what they want. Yeah, if that makes sense, right? Because it’s like, because they want it so bad that they think oh, because I want it so bad that they’re gonna get it. But they’re not surrendering to just let it happen. They’re putting too much any energy into like forcing it to happen instead of just letting it be

Kyra Howearth 16:13
absolute. So lightly.

Gianna Diggs 16:17
So I think that that’s important that you said, you just you said it and you forgot about it. I think that’s the key. The key takeaway in that story?

Kyra Howearth 16:24
Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, surrendering and letting go is such an important part of the process. Because like you said, sometimes we get so caught up, and it’s like, Oh, my God, I want this, I want this. Now, why isn’t it here. And sometimes that missing part is just being able to let go and just be open to receiving in divine time. So

Gianna Diggs 16:43
let’s, let’s take it to that mompreneur, who, you know, she wants to get into manifesting. But maybe she feels a little overwhelmed about how to use it. Because you know, there’s 50 million things out there about Moon manifesting, you type it in Amazon, you’re going to pull up a bunch of books, you type it in on Google, you’re going to get a bunch of different, you know, results coming back, I think we’re moving in as a society into more spiritual energetic practices, and at times, that can be very overwhelming. So what advice or tips would you give her for just how to take that first step? How to get started?

Kyra Howearth 17:22
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. So like, I feel like Moon manifesting, it can be like, so complex, there can be so many layers for it. But for the absolute beginner, it’s just as simple as finding out when it’s a new moon, or you know, a day or two, either side is fine, it doesn’t have to be exact, and setting your intentions or setting your goals on the new moon. And just like really feeling into your heart space, like what it is that you truly desire, rather than coming from, like your head from your ego, or like anywhere else, just really tuning in, like meditating can be really helpful, because you can just really tune into yourself. And yeah, write out your intentions in a journal, write out your goals. And that’s really, that’s where I started when I began so many years ago, and that’s it, something magical just happened from that simple process of just taking out some time. Like, I put the kids to bed at night, and I just created some space for myself for a little ritual. And that was simply it, like just writing out what it was that I truly desired. And, you know, you just kind of sending out a wish to the universe. And yeah, it just starts from there. It doesn’t have to be overly complex. Yeah, it’s just as simple as setting your intentions. Okay, I

Gianna Diggs 18:45
love that simplicity is is key. So this question I just just came to me, is that on the list of questions that I sent you, but it’s more, I think it’s more for me, or anyone who kind of has started using the moon, but maybe they’re not seeing the results exactly as they want. So usually, I try to set the intention around, maybe the area that the moon is activating. Do you do that? Or are you a little bit more free?

Kyra Howearth 19:13
Yes. So I absolutely take into account like the zodiac sign that the moon is in as well as what house that’s falling in on my chart. So yeah, if you do know a bit more about astrology, then of course, you can bring some of those elements into setting your intentions. So for example, I’ll use the last New Moon as an example the new moon and Libra that, you know, I tuned into the Libra energy which, you know, some of those themes are like relationships and support. So I was thinking about okay, intentions to do with that. And because this new moon fell in my 12th house, the 12th house in astrology is about like taking time off Off resting, connecting with your deeper purpose. And so yeah, I was setting intentions about that too. So I was really using those astrological energies as a guide. But at the same time, like, you know, feeling into your heart, like regardless of what’s going on, I feel like that’s, that can be way more powerful rather than being like, okay, the moon is in this sign. So I’ve got to set my intentions about this. Like, if it doesn’t feel aligned to you don’t let that roll how you’re setting your intentions, like tune in to what you what you really want to use this new moon energy for. Absolutely.

Gianna Diggs 20:36
Okay, great. I’m glad. I’m glad you kind of said that. Because like I said, you know, as someone who’s who’s done it before, I’m kind of like, you know, I’ve had things come true, but also like, that daunting thing of like, okay, it’s in this area, but like, I don’t know if I if I need any help in this area right now. So I’m glad you said just feel into it. And if it feels good, then then move on with it. Yeah, absolutely. So before we wrap up, can you tell us where we can find you online?

Kyra Howearth 21:06
Yes, so you can find me on my website that’s at Kira, how with.com.au. Gianna, um, I’m sure that you’ll have that in the show notes for people who don’t know how to spell my name. Yes. You can also find me on Instagram and Facebook at Kira, how with a dot official. I’m also on YouTube. And I also have my own podcast, the moon manifesting podcast. And yeah, you’ll probably find me in other places online too. But those are probably the main places I hang out. And I Yeah, on my website, you’ll find links to my books, Moon manifesting, which is a guide to using like, the new moon energy, all those other phases as well as the Zodiac energies. And there’s so much more squeezed into that book. It’s really insightful if you’re interested in working with the moon, and then moving into 2023. I have the 2023 moon manifesting at Planet available. And so that’s a really practical way to find out you know how to use the moon in a practical way in your life on a daily basis. You know, it has astrological transits daily Moon signs and phases, as well as Yeah, heaps of other stuff to help you plan your life in alignment with the stars and the moon. Well,

Gianna Diggs 22:33
