NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

“[The lunar cycle is] about a month. Some cycles are 29 days, some are 30 days. There’s 12 cycles in a year, except every about three years there’s 13. So, there’s almost something that is asking us, like we were talking about, that deprogramming and relearning this way to be in relationship with time that is not as precise as we might like it to be.”

“So, the moon gives us this framework to work within. So that the first quarter is like making a choice to say yes to this particular project, or this intention, whatever it might be. Then coming up to the full moon, it can be really [about] what’s being illuminated? What is the moon shedding light onto? What can I see more clearly now that in the Dark of the Moon maybe I couldn’t see?”

“I really want to draw this correlation between when we lose track of the moon, we’re also losing track of ourselves. So, if we can keep track of the moon and pace with the moon, we can do that with ourselves.”

“Having that new moon where you can’t see. It’s not a visible thing. The full moon is the visible part, the visible connection of the sky. The New Moon brings us into a space of trust. With business too, it’s like, what if I can’t see the thing yet that I’m trying to create? How do I actually have trust? And the moon teaches another lesson of that teaching of trust. The moon just disappears for three days and then it comes back. And I can trust the things that I can’t see yet.”
