Moon Circles

MOON CIRCLES
The Moon affects us all the time whether or not we are conscious of her influence. As mother of the water element here on Earth, the Moon governs all that flows, from tides to emotions to monthly cycles. She is a great teacher offering us wisdom about our bodies, feelings, instincts and intuition. Consciously engaging with the changing phases of the Moon helps us live in alignment and connection with nature. In these Moon Circles we will energetically and creatively connect with the moon through sound, vibration, astrology, astronomy, myth and meditation. 
    New Moon Circle: The dark phase of the Moon is a time for going inwards, returning to our core, resting in our deepest selves and preparing for another cycle. From the darkness we emerge renewed, ready for the next phase of growth. The New Moon is a time for new beginnings, an opportunity each month to set the tone for the coming cycle and listen deeply for the themes being presented to us. It is an optimal time to set intentions, make wishes and ignite growth. From the New Moon we enter into the waxing phase where the energy that was initiated expands and grows.
    Full Moon Circle: The Moon and Sun are in intimate relationship. Throughout her cycle the Moon reflects varying amounts of the Sun's light, outwardly revealing and expressing more or less of herself at different phases. The time of the Full Moon is when she is fully illuminated by the light of the Sun. It is a time for celebrating this sacred union and all relationships that teach us about ourselves. The Full Moon is the time of greatest visibility. It is a time to shine, be seen, stand proud in who we are and express our most radiant selves. Themes that are initiated at the New Moon reach their peak at the Full Moon. From the Full Moon we enter into the waning phase, where we integrate and assimilate all that we have learned before beginning the next cycle.
