A perspective of Moon as teacher, reconnecting us to a world without patriarchal, industrialized control over our cycles, instincts, and true selves; inviting us to return to intuition and wildness.. A perspective of Moon as life goals, leading by example with her boundaries and honesty.. A perspective of Moon as mystic, "orbiting around a language beyond a language," casting her luminous spell over us each night in myriad ways. In her beautifully poetic yet forthright way, Gottesdiener guides us through the cycles of the moon as a creative process: from the somber dreams and seedling spells of the new moon, to the glowing transformation of the full. This book is a beacon of healing, illuminating our inner realms through ritual, introspection, and more. For someone who recognizes how challenging it is to encapsulate the wonder, sacredness, and spiralic nature of moon magick into words, Gottesdiener has certainly done a magnificent job of doing so."--Chelsea Wolfe, musician, witch "I''ve been a follower and fan of Sarah''s work for years.
