There’s a legend that women came from the Moon and every month they pay her tribute in the form of their periods. When the Moon waxes events take on strength and energy and potential grow. The full moon is a time to see the results of one’s efforts, conclude events and to reap fruits from the harvest. A woman has the ability to change her monthly cycle and manage it. There are special exercises allowing a woman to make her period start or stop at any moment. To do this a woman must be very conscious of her centres, ovaries and be able to work with the power of intent.

It is possible to tune one’s cycle to the rhythm of the moon’s cycle. This gives a woman particular strength in her interactions with the world. Being in tune with the moon’s cycle means for ovulation to take place during the full moon. The egg matures during the waxing moon, which is a period of active growth, communication, creativity. Menstruation itself happens during the waning moon – a period of rest and relaxation where it’s better to be one on one with oneself. If this is true for you then conception will also take place during the strong phase of the moon — the full moon.

Exercises for couples

True love is always mutual.

My mentors in Mexico taught me that at the moment of conception all your cells should be activated, your intent should be completely pure and sincere, your consciousness at its peak to the extent that you can feel energy, be aware of your molecules vibrating, of the egg joining with the sperm. Then it will be a very vivid act and the baby will be imparted with a lot of consciousness and knowing from the very start.

There are special exercises that help couples feel each other better, tune into each other, become closer and connect in harmony: Ocean’s Breath, Energy Exchange, Joint Dreaming, Bridge between Hearts, to name a few.

Ocean’s Breath

Both partners sit back to back. One partner breathes in, gently curving their back and brings their chin to their chest. At the same time the other partner breathes out arching their back and brings their head back. Contact should remain between their two bodies.

Then they do the opposite; the first partner breathes out and arches their back, the second breathes in and curves their back.

And so the movements continue. They are carried out smoothly, one movement flowing into the other with each person fully in the moment, breathing deeply through the belly. In this meditation connect with the element of water by imagining that you are an ocean. Each inhalation and exhalation is the tide coming and going. Breathe through your mouth as slowly and loudly as you can, imitating the sound of waves breaking on the sandy shore. This meditative practice allows you to feel your partner’s rhythm and connect to each other not only on a physical level but also on an energetic level; the back is a more energetically open area in a person. We’ve already learned to protect each other from the front and wear masks while contacting the outside world, masks which sometimes become so strongly glued to our faces that we cannot even open up and take them off when talking to our close ones. That’s why we’re more open and unprotected from the back and touching back to back we can truly see our partner and discover their unmasked self.
