Why Following The Moon Changed My Life
Attract magic & start living in effortless flow
Are you feeling disconnected from yourself and the natural rhythm of life?
Do you sometimes feel like swimming upstream and pushing against your natural energy? Do you feel like you’re working so hard and frustratingly little comes from it?
Before I started working with the moon I was definitely feeling this. In our culture of 9-5 jobs we are taught that we’re supposed to be equally productive every day. But living like this actually leaves you feeling exhausted and drained... have you experienced this?
When I learned to follow the lunar cycle I became more aware of the rhythms of nature and that there is a right timing for everything. There are times to initiate and there are times to rest. Instead of swimming against the natural flow we can learn to move with it in an intelligent way to feel more nourished.
How to invite more ease and flow into your life
Like the tides of the oceans we experience a natural rise and fall of energy each month as the moon waxes and wanes.
Everything in nature follows a continuous rhythm of expansion and contraction. Everything grows, reaches a peak and then dissolves again.
Each cycle has a beginning, middle and end – before it starts all over again.
Think about your breath, the tides of the ocean, the seasons of the year, the cycle of the day, a woman’s period, the cycle of our lives.
The main phases of the lunar cycle
The name month actually stems from the 29.5-day cycle of the moon, also known as a lunation.
Waxing phase: two weeks in which the moon grows to fullness
New Moon: the beginning of the cycle
First Quarter: half moon in the waxing phase
Full Moon: the peak of the cycle
Waning phase: two weeks in which the moon dissolves back into emptiness
Last Quarter: half moon in the waning phase
Dark Moon: the ending of the cycle
Align yourself to feel in harmony with your body and nature
When we become more aware of the natural rise and fall of energy each month we can live more intelligently and in tune. Instead of pushing ourselves all the time we can learn to flow with our fluctuating energy levels.
Nature doesn’t move in a linear way - by learning to slow down and nourish ourselves when the natural energy is low at the end of the cycle we will actually speed up afterwards. Instead of feeling depleted we can then get more done in less time.
The secret is that when you align your life with the natural waves of energy you will create way more, way faster – and with less effort.
