Moon Blood Ritual

Last updated on March 23, 2018 By Vild P. 2 Comments

My moon blood is here. It’s different from last time, quiet and painless. As I sip my morning coffee I am listening to what my body and spirit is telling me I need. The house is quiet, and I am looking at the sky, the clouds and the birds. This is a tranquil time.

I become aware of feeling open, impressionable and vulnerable. And it feels positive and honest. This position of weakness feels like a position of immense strength. As I communicate with myself I become aware of different voices answering. These voices represent different aspects of myself. I lean back in my chair and try to discern if all my aspects are represented.

I draw my breath and prepare for the next few days. I can feel there is something there in my psyche that needs to be healed, but I cannot yet tell what it is.

So I remain in my chair, looking at the sky, giving myself the safe environment to let the issue surface. This may take some time, and I know it’s not worth pushing it. I am feeling calm, safe and rested now. I also sense tearfulness, a desire to let go and fragility vaguely present at the same time.

It is now evening, and I feel that the time is right and that I am ready. This time, I brew myself a very large mug of red tea. I am making a strong hibiscus-infusion today, and sweeten it. This is a magical ritual for me, connecting the redness, the heat and the sweetness inside and outside myself.

I also put on a garnet necklace – I feel that it grounds me and connects me to the Earth and to Gaia.

Sitting in my chair I allow myself to become completely still. Drinking tea and watching the sky and the clouds are not trivial activities, they are sacred rituals to be performed with grace.

I place my hands on my abdomen and breathe out deeply through my mouth. I let go of the hardships of the past month as I breathe. Gone is the fatigue I felt last week. Gone is the pressure connected with work and deadlines. Gone is annoyance and irritation.

As I continue to breathe deeply, I feel a timelessness washing over me. I am Everywoman now, and all that exists is love and compassion.

I breathe with my hands on my abdomen and a sense of peace unfolds within me. As I reach for my cup of tea I can feel my eyes filling with tears. The tears fall silently and liberatingly. Once they stop, it feels as if I have been bathed in bliss. I have been blessed, and cleansed…

    Your incredible website coming through the incredible you, has empowered me so much in one visit, that the full moon today beckoned me in, as I desired. It was much needed. Thank you Jin. We have ‘Rakshabandhan’ today, in India, where we pray to the protective forces, and ritualise it by tying ‘rakhi’ on our brothers’ wrists. I tie this sacred thread of love to all our sisters all over the planet, and pray for abundance and peace in all our lives.

      Thank you so much Shweta! I feel the the sacred thread of love on my wrist and in my heart! The super moon last night was incredibly beautiful. I was visiting in Vancouver. Seeing the magnificent moon after dinner inspired me to talk for an hour across the town to the beach… Sitting down, admiring the beauty of the moon, and praying for abundance and peace to all of my sisters and brothers in the world. And I felt your prayer too, dear sister! Lots of love to you…
