Honoring Women’s Cycles Through the Wisdom of the Moon

As women, our bodies are deeply attuned to rhythms and cycles. Just as the moon shifts from new to full, waning and waxing with a steady rhythm, so too does our reproductive health follow a sacred pattern. When we begin to notice the way our bodies align with these natural women's moon cycles, we step into a deeper relationship with our own wisdom, intuition, and wellness.

For centuries, women lived by the moon. Our ancestors planted, harvested, and rested according to her phases, and many noticed that their menstrual cycles often mirrored the moon's timing. Some bled with the new moon (often called a “white moon cycle”), while others flowed with the full moon (a “red moon cycle”). Both, and the phases in between, carry different energetic gifts of inner renewal, nurturing, or outward creativity, each cycle offering its own medicine.

In our current patriarchal society it's easy to see why many women feel disconnected—from their natural rhythms, from their reproductive health, and from the power that comes from living in harmony with the moon and nature itself. Our LED lights and screens throw off our circadian rhythm. The average woman spends only between 20 minutes to an hour outside each day. We are expected to show up the same every day throughout the month despite the significant hormonal and energetic shifts. This disconnection often shows up as stress, illness, irregular cycles, fatigue, or simply feeling out of sync with life.

In last week's blog article, you may have read a bit about my own healing journey with my moon cycle- an ongoing process of discovery and self-exploration. Since motherhood it has felt that each and every cycle teaches me something more about my physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. And if I don't listen... I sure feel it!

The beautiful truth is that your cycle is not something to fight against. It is natural, and when understood fully, it is a source of strength. By syncing with the moon’s rhythm, you can support your hormones, calm your nervous system, and awaken a deeper connection to your inner voice.

• Imagine knowing exactly when your body needs rest, when to plan your most creative projects, and when to lean into your natural energy.

• Imagine feeling less stress about your cycle and more reverence for it.

• Imagine teaching your daughters (and reminding yourself) that your body is not a burden but a wise inner guide.

This is the gift of syncing your cycle with the moon.
