Moon and ritual

The moon keeps a steady rhythm, and borrowing it is one of the kindest ways to give your weeks a shape. Here you will find the full moon calendar with every date and the old names, rituals for the new and the waning moon that do not ask you to buy anything, and spreads for the turning points of the year.

None of it needs candles in a particular color or a perfect altar. A quiet ten minutes and an honest question are enough, and each ritual ends with one small step you can take the next morning.
