Summer Survey

Inspired by the opening lines of the Moon Inside You I’ve created a (short!) Summer Survey and I invite you to take a moment to share what’s on your mind and in your heart around your experience with menstruation – no matter what your gender, anatomy, or stage of life! I would be delighted to read your responses to questions such as: “When you hear the word menstruation, what comes to mind?” “What do you know now about menstruation, natural cycles, the moon, fertility, and reproductive health that you wish you had known earlier in life?” “What [...read more...]

"Loving Your Lady Parts as a Path to Success, Power & Global Change"

So, the other day as I so often do, I decided to soak up some inspiration from TED* while I attended to some other work. In scrolling through the suggested videos I did a double take when I saw this title pop up, ”Loving Your Lady Parts as a Path to Success, Power & Global Change”. Really?!? I’m all for this concept… and stated so boldly? Well, I couldn’t resist – I wouldn’t even want to! A couple minutes into this talk I had to stop what I was working on and focus all my attention on [...read more...]

What Does Menstruation Mean To Us?

This question is so big that I have been putting off writing about it for fear of not fitting everything I want into a single post. Volumes upon volumes of poetry and prose have sought to explain it. Artists in every medium and scientists of every persuasion have sought to reveal it. How could I possibly sum it up succinctly? The realization finally came that of course I don’t need to get it all in here! I’ll be writing about this for years to come – so I’m releasing my unnecessary fear, comfortable knowing I [...read more...]

Moontime is Rising

Why does the moon matter? Why does menstruation really matter? How does the way we perceive time influence our experience of each moment, and our conception of which moments matter? How are people individually and collectively influenced by the cycles of nature? How can we integrate this knowledge to grow as individuals, and come together as a society? These are some of the questions that fascinate me. In 2005, I conceived of the Moon Cycle Timepiece, a timekeeping tool that anyone could use to connect with the vital forces of the moon, menstruation, and a [...read more...]
