Over The Moon Definition

It is an expression that means excessively happy or joyous. The idea is that the person is "high" - they feel very "up". Since the moon is high up in the sky, if they are "over the moon", they are even higher than that.

What a wonderful question. Religion is, of course, the form that one's worship takes. Thus there are thousands of forms. Religion includes a system of religious beliefs and practices. The object of the religion may be false gods or the true God. Hence, there is false religion and there is true. Religion can get very fancy or remain simple. In the former case, such as it is today. In the latter case, such as it was in the Garden of Eden. What then is worship to me? How do I worship? To worship means to obey. And to obey means to worship. The two are intimately connected; indeed, they are coterminous and cannot be separated. Specifically, to obey the Sovereign Lord God Jehovah of Armies is to worship Him. I do my imperfect best in this regard. I fall on my face and get back up to try and try again. In the Garden of Eden, so long as they obeyed Jehovah, Adam and Eve were worshiping him. No temple, no Mosaic Law, no meetings. Simply leave the tree of the knowledge of good and bad alone. Simple. The minute they disobeyed, they stopped worshiping Jehovah. Same with the nation of Israel. The minute they attempted to practice a syncretistic religion they stopped worshiping Jehovah. The minute they made the golden calf, they stopped. And on and on. To worship is to obey. To obey is to worship. Hannah J Paul

It means you are extremely happy.
Here is one of the earliest versions of its usage:
Haliburton - The Clockmaker, 1840 "Ready to jump over the moon for delight."

extremely happy,euphoric
Some simlar phrases
to be on cloud nine ,in the seventh heaven
They all convey higher level of happiness as it may be clear that these phrases are hyperbole.
