The Spring Session 2026
Wild hearts, creatives & lovers of the living world,
this course is designed for you.
For a complete lunar year — comprised of 13 new moons — consciously journey through the seasons, creating and collecting medicine through reflection, writing, ritual, wandering and connecting.
This is a synchronous online course.
Women have been gathering in circles under the moon for millennia. Gathering in circles is woven into our DNA. We gather for healing. For sharing stories, tears and laughter. For singing songs to la luna, the mother. We gather to honor the sacred, wisdom and power of the feminine at each phase of our living. It is in the gathering that the alchemical fire of belonging to heaven and earth - to Self, other and the sacred mystery - is stoked and tended lovingly.
Women are governed by blood, by cycles and by the tides of contraction and expansion.
Join me and a community of kindreds to make the journey from the dark tomb of winter, the most yin season, to the windy fields of spring’s return. Our monthly gatherings will include poetry, reflection, connecting, setting and sharing new moon intentions in small groups and teachings from a 5 Element Chinese Medical perspective. Woven throughout the session I’ll share reflections on how to align with the Cycles of 7 that govern the unfolding of female bodies.
Mother Moon is the quintessential yin or feminine archetype. She governs the river of our unfolding from maiden to crone. She schools us on how to bow and flow with the inevitable rising and falling of life. She governs the tides that traverse tour blood, bones and wild-hearts.
Moon as maiden. As matriarch. As mirror. As crone. As flesh, blood and body. Feeling. Sensing Emoting. Queen of night and empress of the yellow-eyed nocturnals. Moon as medicine. As magic. As mentor. As guide for all who wish to inhabit our most sovereign, potent and creative Selves in each phase of life.
Participants will be invited to intentionally cultivate and harness an intuitive connection to what you truly need - moment to moment - as you move through the cycles inherit in life.
Participants will learn/receive:
Introduction to the Cycles of 7 in Chinese cosmology and how to align with them
The seasonal & astrological significance of each new moon
The astrological themes (invitation) of each new moon and how to work with them
Practices to calm the nervous system so you may rest deeply

MOON School is divided into four distinct sessions (seasons).
Each session includes:
Three virtual gatherings with teachings specific to the three new moons of that season
Space for connecting, setting and sharing new moon intentions in small groups
Teachings on the ways in which the moon exerts her quiet, powerful influence upon us
Dietary guidance based on the annual season, lunar phase and season of one’s life
Between classes, participants are encouraged to perform rituals — from fire ceremony to creating sacred space to holy wandering in nature — as a way of connecting more deeply with Self, Nature & sacred others.
