how are we women at once so resplendently celestial,
while also so deeply of the dark earth below?
our depth of knowing & feeling rising
with a luminous clarity, as we offer
our womb blood to the ground.
Mystic Moon Balm
This supple balm is intended to be used for womb massage during your moontime especially, but can also be used at any point during your cycle when you want to energetically connect with and nurture your womb space. It is also beautiful for womb massage during the postpartum period.
Mugwort is the lead herb which has a strong affinity for the womb - it brings gentle grounding warmth & helps to move stagnant energy. It offers protection while opening us to the subtle realms & liminial spaces to which we tread so near while we bleed. It is supported by caraway which helps to relieve smooth muscle constriction and ginger which is definitively warming and promotes circulation & synergy among the herbs. Vanilla lends sweetness & serenity to the blend.
Your moon time is a time for rest, reflection, & insights arising from your creative, life-generating womb space. This balm offers a simple opportunity for presencing the wisdom of your womb through a self massage practice, and encourages you to shift into a place of reverence & respect of this sacred pause every month.
