Thus the energy of the full moon will show you its bright side and bring with it peace and calmness for your soul. Often this exact day is the day of a Supermoon. If this is the case be extra attentive to the atmosphere at home; guard it with your inner intention and you quiet interactions with your family.

Housework on the Moon in Cancer:

The Moon is in Cancer, Water element is active. On these days it is good to vacuum, mop, change the bathroom fixtures and for house cleaning in general. You could and should wipe light bulbs and chandeliers or generally bring new lighting to dark spaces. It is also desirable to declutter. In this period it is reasonable to wash almost all the dishes in the house, because grease and dirt will come off more easily. The same goes for laundry, especially the stubbornest stains will wash easy and you will use less soap, particularly if the Cancer Moon is waning. On water days you shouldn't put away clothes, for they are sure to get damp. It is inadvisable to air out the living space. If you decide to clean your mattress also pay attention to Earth's satellite; during the waxing Moon in water signs it's not the best idea. Moisture will be drawn to the mattress and sleeping will become uncomfortable. However, if the Moon is waning hardwood floors will take well to mopping: you may mop with an extra wet rag moistened in freezing cold water with a 1:10 mixture of glycerin. Don't do that on a waxing Moon though, as it may cause mold and warping; in this case use as little water as possible and give preference to a vacuum or broom. These days are bad for painting, but good for watering house plants or freezing vegetables. Better to leave baking for another day.
Waning Moon

Housework on the Waning Moon:

The time of the Waning Moon is the best period for all kinds of housework. Woolen clothes will wash easily even without chemicals. It is preferable to bring things which are made of sensitive materials such as  fur, leather or silk to the dry cleaners –  this way the fabrics will stay bright and longwearing. It is also suggested to do any repairs like plastering and painting walls. For painting use days when the Waning Moon is passing Air signs; if you have to deal with wet plastered walls better give preference to Leo days. For cleaning projects choose days of Gemini, Libra or Aquarius. Consequently you will notice that work itself goes way easier than usual and the results of this cleaning will last longer. Everything will get dry faster even if you used a lot of water. Use days of Water signs for laundry or other washing projects. The Waning Moon in Aquarius is perfect for transplanting house flowers. Also these days are suggested for installing new windows or another kinds of work with glass. Laying  flooring can be favorable as well, but better avoid doing that on Water days. Сalcareous coating on a kettle, iron or hard-to-get places in the shower cabin will come out easily on these days. Try to put preserving food on your to-do-list for days when the Waning Moon in Sagittarius, Cancer, Virgo or Pisces. Take care of wooden items on days of Capricorn, Sagittarius, Leo and Cancer. Add more yeast to your pastries when the Moon is Waning.
