1. Determine your moon phases.

Use a lunar calculator to determine the moon phases you and your potential soulmate were born under. You’ll need to know your date, time, and place of birth for the most accurate results.

2. Find an image of the moon phases.

Once you have your moon phases, find and screenshot a photo of each phase. 

3. Compare your moon phases.

Using a photo editor, layer the images of the two moon phases. If the two phases together create a Full Moon, you are indeed soulmates (at least according to TikTok).
