Episode 16: Valentines Day, Red Women Moon Cycles and The Click

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to Episode 16, where I will be discussing Valentines Day, Red Women Moon Cycles and The Click.Today is Valentines Day, which seems to represent love, relationship and more in current culture. It was originally a fertility festival in honor of St. Valentine. We just went through the Leo full moon that carried a powerful energy force as it rose above the Sangre De Cristos here in Taos, New Mexico. I remember when I was younger that the full moon had much more charge on my soma, and I would struggle with sleep. Over the years this minimized and seem to be linked with my menses cycles or moon cycles as we like to call them. I learned in my twenties that there is a white moon and red moon pattern. Each pattern had a different emotional and energetic quality to it. White moon represented women who ovulated with the full moon as well as the quality of the maiden in the trinity of maiden, mother and crone. The experience is more around fertility, lightness, youthfulness and beauty. Whereas the red moon meant entering into the bleeding period of the menses cycle. The energy of women in this cycle was more depth, inquiry, emotional and exploring the artistic depths of culture liken to the crone phase. Every woman carries all three cycles of maiden, mother and crone in some form and may experience the different levels of energy within. In the culture I was raised men have lunar cycles too that are over 90 days with similar tidal patterns.
