The Moon does not rush her becoming—

she waxes and wanes,

grows bright and disappears,

and in each form, she is whole.

These rites are a remembrance of that truth within you—

that growth and rest, creation and release,

are not opposites,

but partners in our sacred rhythm.


Purpose: to align your inner life with the rhythm of the Moon—honoring the cycles of intention, creation, reflection, and renewal.

Use: to create monthly rituals of presence and alignment. You may practice one rite each phase or simply visit the one that calls to you most in this season.


New Moon - The Rite of Planting

Reflection: In darkness, the seed begins.

Action: Write a single intention on paper. Hold it to your heart and whisper:

“May what begins in darkness grow in grace.”

Bury or place he paper somewhere she until the Full Moon.


First Quarter - The Rite of Courage

Reflection: The sprout breaks through the soil—it meets resistance and light.

Action: Take one bold step toward your intention, no matter how small.

As you act, say:

“I write with courage. I meet what comes.”


Full Moon - The Rite of Illumination

Reflection: All is seen in this light—what has grown true, and what has grown wild.

Action: Under the moonlight (or candlelight), hold your hands open and whisper:

“I stand in my fullness. I bless what is revealed.”

Breathe deeply, letting the light cleanse and charge your spirit.


Last Quarter - The Rite of Release

Reflection: What once bloomed now returns to earth.

Action: Write down what you are ready to release. Burn, tear, or bury it, saying:

“I let go with love. I make space for rest.”


Condensed Version:

May what begins in darkness grow in grace.

I rise with courage.

I stand in my fullness.

I let go with love.
