Because the moon always changes through its cycles, like someone might change their mind.

"the inconstant moon, that monthly changes in her circle orb, lest that thy love prove likewise variable."

What does Juliet ask Romeo NOT to swear his love by and what is her reason?

I think this is referring to this bit of dialogue: Romeo: Lady, by yonder blessed moon I swear... Juliet: O, swear not by the moon [ ... ] lest thy love prove likewise variable. In other words, she's not telling him not to swear his love, she's telling him "Don't swear on the moon. It changes. I don't want a love that waxes and wanes." If you meant something else, please be more specific.
