Cycles Of The Moon
Women Are Cyclical Creatures
Make Menopause An Adventure ……
Menopause brings freedom from the emotional ups and downs that accompany the moon cycles of menstruation. Women have the freedom to feel radiantly well, with a zest for life, and completely ignore the menopausal horror stories from the past. The second big initiation arrives, and the third and most exciting stage of life begins.
Nobody prepares you for menopause – nor does anybody explain waking at night and feeling sad or fearful for no apparent reason. Seldom is the intensity of emotion expected, that comes at the end of the second phase of your life.
As Women, we depend on multiple interactions of hormones in our bodies, as they exert a profound influence on a woman’s health and emotions. So complicated are the interactions between hormones and the human body, that it is still not completely understood by science.
A female endocrine system is an interface between body and spirit. The way women think, feel, all our hopes and dreams, are all echoed in surges of hormones and their shifting patterns, not only from day to day, but from moment to moment.
‘They affect our view of reality’ – this is why an imbalance can create such emotional and spiritual agony.
Why is it then, that Men, and Women themselves think they should always be the same – perfect, calm, rational, reliable, reasonable, loving, caring, stable. A very unrealistic view.
It’s not in your 40’s and 50’s that you are likely to be faced with symptoms that cause you grief. It’s how you lived your life in your reproductive years that will be surfacing now, the way you treated yourself, your diet, exercise, decisions you made about medications – this is what sets the stage for a trouble free transition through menopause.
A Full Moon is beautiful, yet it does not stay that way, it’s cyclical, just like a woman.
