    ABOUT THE JOURNAL

    THE MOON IS MY CALENDAR was born in the nest of the new moon gatherings that began in 2008 during the early days of each of our journeys with motherhood. The seeds of this practice came from the desire to connect more deeply with inner and outer cycles, to know ourselves in relationship with the earth and the cosmos, and to feel supported during the subtle and substantial shifts in our lives.

    It soon became clear that the benefits of this tool and practice were meant to reach far beyond their living rooms, and so THE MOON IS MY CALENDAR was born.

Attune with the Moon

These tools and creative practices are designed to help you discover how the rhythm of the moon can guide you to see old habits and patterns more clearly.

The moon is a brilliant teacher who reminds us that each stage of the process of unfolding is necessary and has value. When you bring your awareness to natural cycles and those of your own body, you begin to see connections, patterns, and potential.

This awareness supports shifts away from burn-out and reactivity, towards radiance and authentic self-expression to live with more ease and joy.
