Do you know that quite often Women's cycles follow the moon?
There are two distinct patterns that women can emulate as they move through the two archetypes at different stages in their life.
❤ Mother / White Moon ❤
The first cycle pattern is the Mother cycle. This is characterised by women who ovulate with the full moon and bleed with the new moon. Those in the mother cycle are in touch with their nurturing, growing side and the full moon can assist with conception if that is what the woman wishes. The Mother is feminine, flowing, radiant, pouring out her energy to nourish the earth. The new moon brings introspection and rest. Being a Mother cycle woman does not necessarily mean that you are a mother, but that you are creating things, looking after important people or animals.

🌛 Wise Woman / Red Moon 🌜
The second cycle pattern is the Wise Woman cycle. This is characterised by women who ovulate with the new moon and bleed with the full moon. Those in the wise woman cycle are involved in their spiritual pursuits and inner growth. She may be a midwife or medicine woman - the idea being as women frequently give birth with the full moon she is bleeding, harnessing the power of her cycle to really be "with woman" at this time. Your creative time is in the dark of the moon as you make magic. Wise women are focussed on their journey and learning and using their gifts to support other women.
