A3 books In the light of the moon The Moon tugs at the waters of seas, oceans, people, animals, and plants. Even mountains rise a few millimeters when the Moon is above their peaks. Its phases represent the eternal cycle of life: creation, growth, decay, death, and rebirth. It inspires artists, tugs at the hearts of loved ones, and connects us with our subconscious through dreams, emotions, and feelings.
In this book, Petra Stam and Marja de Zeeuw show you how to reflect on the power of the moon in your own way. They show you how to consciously incorporate this power into your life, connecting you to your feelings, intuition, and subconscious processes, thus empowering and influencing the goals within your own cycle. To incorporate the lunar cycles within the solar cycle, they've placed thirteen full moons within the calendar year. Each full moon has its own chapter, covering themes, history, astrology, tarot, mythology, symbolism, rituals, annual festivals, trees, and the elements. Each chapter also includes many practical suggestions, the lunar calendar, and recipes for tea and incense.
This manual doesn't tell you what to do or not to do, but encourages you to consciously reflect on the themes that play out in nature each full moon, to gather your own experiences, to feel responsible for your decisions and actions, and thus to become self-aware. In short: it encourages you to search for your own truth.
