Walking the Lunar Path

Tegan, Michele, and Belit introduce themselves and their spiritual/magical practices, and then transition to discussing how the moon plays a role in all of their practices. Michele explains the Jewish calendar is lunisolar, with a strong emphasis on the new moon (Rosh Chodesh) rather than the full moon. She describes the significance of the new moon sighting, the dark moon for spiritual reflection, and the various prayers and blessings associated with the moon phases in Judaism. The group discusses the fascinating similarities they've observed in moon-related practices across different cultures and traditions, despite the diversity of origins. They note the common focus on the full moon, dark moon, and the subtle energetic shifts throughout the waxing and waning phases. Interested in learning more about the moon phases in Judaism?
