Moonly: Moon Phases & Calendar

Moonly will calculate (in depth) your TRUE zodiac sign based on the modern science of astrology, and I finally feel valid and seen. I’ve been labeled as an Aries my entire life but check absolutely zero boxes of being an Aries. I’ve felt like a Pisces my entire life, as I’ve always checked every single box and attribute of the water sign. Sure enough, modern science backs this up and I have gone from not really believing in astrology to thinking it’s uncanny how spot on my chart is since this app is using actual updated science. You can also google “my true zodiac sign” and you’ll see an article that will tell you your true sign based on modern astrology. Though this app really focuses on your ascendant, either way it curates your mediations and activities to your very specific personality down to time and place of birth. I accidentally paid for a year subscription but it’s not breaking my bank or anything and I’m glad I forgot to cancel the free trial because I’ve been utilizing this app much more and it’s helping me with things I struggle with (motivation, anxiety, etc). There is a chat function you can ask for help/guidance/resources for something you’re struggling with and someone (or AI?) will answer you helpfully and coherently and send you applicable meditations, mantras, activities, etc to help you become your highest self. Much love to this app and highly recommend! One thing is I cannot get my profile picture to change, though it might be because I have an outdated phone. Still trying to figure that out. But that’s a minor detail and is probably something to do on my end. Thank you Moonly!

Let me start off by saying I lovedddd this app when I first got it, and still do! But when I downloaded it, it had most of its features unlocked, especially the meditations, with only around 5 needed to be unlocked through subscription. I had the app before the producers really came out with the birth chart and dream explanations. Even then, I was willing to work with only having a few of the meditations locked and not having the personalized zodiac info, because everything else like the moon calendar, meditations, articles, tarot, runes etc. made it better than all the other apps I’ve gone through. But then they slowly started coming out with more things to pay for, and then I log on to see that seemingly more than half the meditations are locked!! Meditations that I was able to do before which helped me immensely, and wanted to use again, we’re now locked. As well as the articles you can go through! I get the whole process of needing money to fund the app (especially since there are no ads) but it became suddenly excessive with locking so much of the reading and meditation. Very frustrated with this update and it’s caused me to look toward different apps for spiritual info. I think it would be worth taking into account of locking far less of the articles and meditations, because once you lock most of the features, it becomes like the rest of the spiritual apps out there, and doesn’t exactly motivate people to keep it in use.

I usually don’t ever write reviews, but this app has been an amazing tool for my spiritual practice! I’ve used it everyday for the past 3 weeks. Its guided meditations are so good, and it’s made the daily or twice daily practice of meditation so easy, and something I look forward to every morning. I also love the wisdom readings, definitely a great way to get exposed to or reminded of teachings I might not have otherwise. The moon calendar is excellent, I love the daily affirmations, and I make a lot of use of the instrumental and nature sounds of the app. I usually practice tropical astrology but it’s been a treat to take a dive into Vedic astrology and learn more about it. Living in harmony with the moon makes inherent sense to me and this app makes that easy and enjoyable. I love the app’s goal of expanding human consciousness, something which I am also passionate about, and it’s definitely had an impact on my own ability to be present. Plus the illustrations are so beautiful. Well done! I would love it if there was a way to log my menstrual cycle, so I could go back and see how the moon and my cycle are relating, or maybe give custom advice depending on what phase of my cycle I’m in. Overall 10/10 would and have highly recommended this app, definitely worth the comparatively low price for such material.
