New Moon Medley

Many ancient traditions and modern practices recognize and tap into the power of the moon’s cycles. Daoism, as a tradition that follows nature, follows the lunar cycle. Special meditations are practiced, incense is burned, the beginning of a new cycle is honored.

Wild Peace Studio co-hosts with Jane Henley a monthly new moon gathering. A medley of Qigong, Meditation, journaling, reading and discussion are planned. Because the new moon falls on different days of the week, please note that the TIME for the gatherings vary month-to-month depending on the day of the week.

May 25th – Lunar 5/1 Honoring the Pomegranate Moon

Night Mooring on Jiande River – Meng Haoran (689-740)

I moor my wayward boat in the isle mist.
As the sun sets, my sadness starts anew.
Earth is vast, heaven descends to the trees.
In the clear river, how close the moon seems.
