sun’s warm and life giving
energy.

Happy Summer Solstice ☀️

In Celtic cultures…
The young maiden was seen as
the flower; the mother, the fruit;
the elder woman, the seed.

The seed is the part that contains the
knowledge and potential of all the
other parts within it.

You have a unique body and mind,
with a particular history and conditioning.

No one can offer you a formula
for navigating all situations and
all states of mind.

Only by listening inwardly in a fresh
and open way will you discern at
any given time what most serves
your healing and freedom.

The menstrual cycle is the most basic, earthy cycle we have.
Our blood is our connection to the archetypal feminine.
The macrocosmic cycles of nature,
the waxing and waning,
the ebb and flow of the tides
and the changes of the seasons,
are reflected on a smaller scale
in the menstrual cycle of the individual female body.

It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about realizing your wholeness.

By understanding your own
monthly cycle you can tap
into your own true potential.
Knowing which part of the
month you’ll be at your
strongest, sociable, fragile
or tired is so helpful.
Planning in advance how to
utilize these phases each month
can be incredible powerful.

~ Embrace your phase.

The most fundamental and
radical of these changes is
learning how to love and
accept your precious body
right now.
It is, after all, the temple
that houses your soul.

The great mother whom we call
Innana gave a gift to women that
is not known among men, and this
is the secret of blood.
The flow at the dark of the moon,
the healing blood of the moon’s birth
- to men, this is flux and distemper,
bother and pain.
They imagine we suffer and consider themselves lucky.

In the red tent, the truth is known.
In the red tent, where days pass like
a gentle stream, as the gift of Innana
courses through us, cleansing the body
of last month’s death, preparing the body
to receive the new month’s life,
women give thanks — for repose and restoration, for the knowledge that
life comes from between our legs,
and that life costs blood.

Passage from ‘The red tent.’

A healthy cycle should be
around 28 days with fresh
red blood.

Don’t panic if you have a
different cycle but the colour
of your blood and how we
feel says a lot about our
health, emotions or stress
we deal with etc..

For example heavy cramps,
brown blood, cloths, long
cycles are a sign of stagnation.

When you start tuning into your
cycle and listening to the
rhythm of your body there’s
a great chance your symptoms
might disappear.

Allow your body to take rest in
times it’s asking for rest.
Even if it’s just 5 minutes extra.
Planning your month with taking
notice of the phases you go
through can help a lot.

Acupuncture can also focus on
balancing the hormones,
improving blood circulation and
promoting ovulation.
