Why Does the Moon Matter So Much?

Take a moment to consider this. There is a 14.6 million square mile ball of light and matter floating in space, shining down on us night after night. It’s scientifically proven that this mysterious object has a powerful effect on us and our planet. The tides rise and fall with the moon. Women’s menstrual cycles coincide with its phases. And it plays a part in fertility and birth. 

The moon is kind of a big deal. And lately it’s been getting a lot more attention with dedicated reports and coverage of the blood moon, supermoon, and full moon over the past few years. We’re all feeling intrigued by the power and pull of our lunar cycle. Something that has become even more evident in the passing of recent moon eclipses–some of them were harsh!

In parallel to this “moon rising” is something really beautiful: the rising of the feminine. More woman than ever are being activated and inspired to create and become leaders. We’re graduating with college degrees and attending graduate schools at incredible rates. We’re starting businesses that lead with heart and make a difference in the world. And we’re climbing the ranks in male dominated fields to set a new tone for business. 

While success and abundance have held a masculine edge for decades, women are being called to reconnect with their feminine energy and use it in a powerful way. We’re being called to tune into their intuitions, find flow within the rhythm of our lives, and begin living in sync with the cycle of the moon. 

We’re at a point in time on this planet, and as a species, where things really have to change. The world needs healing. And there is a deep need for all of us to cultivate the feminine attributes within us: compassion, nurturing, connection, and community, and blend them with intuitive action. Making moves in the direction of what feels right and is right. 

The moon can be our guide. It can be the first step to reviving the connection us as women are meant to have with the natural cycles of this Universe. It can teach us so much about our bodies, our minds, and our desires, and it can help us powerfully create what we want in our lives. 

Simply put, the moon amplifies our manifestation power. Yes, we can harness the energy of the moon to create and realize our dreams. I know this because since 2001, I’ve experienced the awesome results of being connected to the lunar cycles. I manifested a trip around the world, multiple international adventures, the love of my life who I’m married to, great financial success in my business and beyond, not to mention, emotional balance. I now have access to resilience, happiness, peace, gratitude, and groundedness–more than ever before. 

The moon has played an enormous role in all of this.
