Dear scribblers + speakers,
On the Hebrew calendar, during the New Moon, women have a special affinity with Rosh Chodesh ("Head of the Month")—the month being the feminine aspect of the Jewish calendar.
We live our lives with the moon because we wish to harness the distinct qualities of lunar energy: its communion + creativity, its capacity for renaissance + rebirth. The moon's movement affects not only the movement of water upon the earth but also these earthen vessels. Like the tides, we ebb + flow. Ase' + Amen.
Let’s lean in as we notice + nurture + embody our waning with the New Moon. This New Moon is a holy witness to remind us that in the darkness there's a creative, generative space in which light interacts and rest is optimized. Like the temporal darkness of the New Moon, let's embrace your/our temporal New Moon phases of the dark unknown until again we arrive at the luminescent fullness of our inner + outer Full Moon.
Invite a suitable contemplative spiritual/creative practice, which compliments a waning vibe, a quieter movement that'll introduce you to new parts of yourself whether in scribbling, speaking prayers or affirmations, silence, eating, a sound bath therapy, etc.
Watch the visual meditation.
The embodied question is: "What New Moon ritual(s) will root you in your holy humanity?" (don't overthink this, we all have rituals—we simply don't name them as such.)
Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): Take the Rest Assessment - Go from routine to ritual as you Notice + Nurture + Embody your cyclical rhythms. You'll receive your ritual-specific, personalized recommendation, which will help you tune into your body's wisdom to optimize tending to your rhythmic soul care.
