Moon Cycle Wisdom Period Calendar
After using a very basic Google-generated period calendar printed out on my home printer, I realized that this same calendar format would be so much more enjoyable to use if it were beautifully designed.
Apps exist for tracking your menstrual cycle, but I’m fairly certain nobody wants another reason to pick up their phone. While an app relies on data to tell you how you're feeling, moon cycle wisdom is an invitation to notice and understand your unique rhythms on a deeper level.
This annual calendar was created as a way to honor your unique menstrual cycle, all parts of it. The cycles of your body are not an inconvenience. Remember those commercials in the 1990s where women just use a tampon or take an Advil and go play tennis (in a white tennis skirt no less) or ball-bust in the boardroom? It feels tired to portray menstruation as a nuisance to just deal with while you go about your day, as though nothing is happening. Something IS happening, and there are many benefits to practicing self-care specific to each menstrual phase.
Tracking your menstrual cycle alongside the lunar cycle is an ancient practice that grounds you to the rhythms of the natural world. There are four phases of the lunar cycle and four phases of the menstrual cycle that reflect distinct qualities. Over the course of four weeks (on average), our hormones fluctuate with amazing changes that influence everything from energy to work productivity, creativity, metabolism, immune health, mood, and more. Beginning to learn about your unique menstrual relationship to the moon cycle can be as simple as noticing what phase the moon is in during your period.
This calendar was inspired by Anne Kent Rush's book Moon Moon and I created it by using hand-cut lettering, images, and a watercolor-painted chart to bring the moon cycle wisdom to life. It can be started and used at any time of the year and does not need to begin in January.
This makes a wonderful gift for newly menstruating young women and helps initiate them into the realm of womanhood.
