Last night was a full moon. This full moon is called the Cold Moon and it corresponds to the Rowan Moon of Celtic traditions. It was an introspection moon and a great moon to work on new growth intentions.
To honor this full moon and the fact that we saw the sun for the first time in 28 days, we had a bonfire in our new fire pit that is located in our side yard. This was our first get together in our new house and it was special! I did take a moment to teach our friends about the cold moon and we took a few moments to think about what we want to create this year and what our hearts desires are. I also brought out a couple of my New Year's Fortune candles, which are a deep red, and we lined them up around the fire.
As the moon came over the bamboo, I went into our herb garden and collected leeks, rosemary, thyme and bay leaves for our guest to take home. We drank red wine and honored the moon, the fire and all the new growth that we can see in the garden.
Spring is just around the corner!
