Phases of the Moon Art Making and Intuitive Healing
Work with the healing power of the lunar cycles in a creative way!
​
The Moon and You
The moon’s effect can be both physical and spiritual.
Since the beginning of time, the moon has held the mind captive. People throughout the world have revered it as a significant deity, thinking it to have genuine power over their lives and their health.
The Moon exerts a massive gravitational pull that causes the changing seas and tides in our oceans. This gravitational pull is at its strongest during the Full Moon and New Moon. The highest and lowest tides occur at this time. It’s widely thought that people are around 60% water, it’s only inevitable that the Moon has a comparable impact on us.
Our feelings, like the tides, are driven to the surface during the Full Moon and New Moon, which may have an amplifying effect.
