Healing Her Story with Riva Jean-Paul
Moon Phases & Feminine Power: Your Weekly Cycle Sync | Full Moon in Leo: Your Creative & Menstrual Cycle Peak — Here's How to Work With It
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week's Healing Her Story episode tunes into the energy of the full moon in Leo -- and the timing could not be more perfect.
The sun just entered Leo. The full moon is at its peak. And as we have been exploring this cycle, this is exactly the moment where everything shifts from intention into expression.
But this carries profound wisdom about what the full moon is actually asking of you creatively.
If you have been following along since the new moon, you planted a seed. You chose a project, an intention, a creative focus. This is the week it starts to take form.
In this episode Riva explores the culminating energy of the full moon and what it means for your creative practice and menstrual cycle. This is no longer about dreaming or planning. This is about showing up and doing your part.
She covers:
Why the full moon is where the rubber meets the road and how to channel the amplified energy into pure expression
How to pick one thread that runs through everything when you have too many creative desires to choose from
Sharing and being seen -- why the full moon is an invitation to put what you have been creating out into the world
What happened in Dr. Tavina's writing circle and why writing with no agenda for 20 minutes can be surprisingly nourishing and freeing
A special invitation for women local to Sacramento — Riva's women's circle is welcoming three new members and the next meeting is Friday August 14th
If something has been building in you this cycle, this is your sign to let it move.
