I’m a few days ‘late’ but also of course in perfect timing. This was such a beautiful post to receive and has helped me remember her magic after losing my connection to the moon over the last few months as I’m cocooning in postpartum. I feel like this new moon has reignited something in me. I also birthed my new website and my intention is to integrate and land with that new space over this next lunar phase. Xx

Firstly, congratulations on becoming a Mumma - whether for the first, second, or many times over. A sacred initiation has occurred in your being. Postpartum...a deep cocooning in ALL aspects of the Goddess.

Secondly, A new WEBSITE!!! That is very exciting! May the Moon's energy bless your website in prosperous, magical, empowering ways.

Finally, Welcome to your Little One.

Welcome to Gaia.

May your journey here be gentle and wholesome,

May your friendships and relationships be real and true,

May your heart be filled with many beautiful things;

and when the clouds come over,

as they do in life,

may you have the deep support you need to heal, be held and be loved.

What a beautiful post, and I love how you described the New Moon and its energy. I have been deeply connecting with the moon over the past few months, and last night as I went to look into the sky before bed I remembered she wouldn't be shining back, and it made me a bit sad for a moment. But, it is such a great time to turn inward and really think about the energy I have been bringing forward this last cycle into the next. Thank you for your magical words.

Bless you! Thank you so much for reading my words and for sharing what they meant for you.

Working with the Moon for me helps me slow down, helps me understand why I sometimes have more energy, and at other times have less. It helps me to live a more conscious life, a slower life even, and yet a deeper richer life.

Thank you for sharing how it felt for you to look up and not see the Moon in the sky. I too have felt something similar at times.

In honour of your next Moon Cycle. May it gift you many beautiful blessings.

The dark moon was very strong for me yesterday and, in fact, I felt unwell physically. My body made it clear that it was a day for rest and not-doing. Even after all my experiences, I sometimes still forget to trust in the cycle. Thank you for this beautiful reminder!

Sometimes we forget, yet our body REMEMBERS for us. I am sorry you felt physically unwell during the Dark Moon. May in resting and not-doing you were gifted with something special.

I am happy to know that my post was a beautiful reminder for you. Thank you for reading.

Thank you for your reflections and poetry!

I am really feeling the new moon today in many ways. The quiet still darkness outside this early morning, the beginning of a new cycle as I get ready for my new moon ritual, this is the first new moon of the 19 month Venus cycle as she starts to descend like Innana into the underworld, and it is my birthday!

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! May your year ahead be filled with so many magical moments and may your heart be filled with love, happiness and joy.

I am glad you enjoyed reading my reflections and poetry.

AND THANK YOU for sharing about Venus. I was unaware of that. Do you have anymore information on Venus' cycle? Thank you.

Thanks for the birthday blessings! Went to the beach with my husband, was beautiful day that followed with an awesome sunset!

Re Venus...Maya Luna is someone that I work with, here is a video link where she is talking about the Venus cycle. It really is sooo fascinating. The planet Venus and the ancient Sumerian Goddess Innana and the Venus and Innana story/myth are one of the same. Enjoy
