Welcome to your Daily Feminine Medicine. 

Each day offers a small field of reflection to help you align with the  rhythm of the cycles around us, and within.  

Within this page you will find the daily Guidance, astrological influences and more on how the cycles affect us our mental, emotional, physical and spiritual bodies. 

I also share contemplative prompts, and embodied inquiries that support deeper listening to the Feminine wisdom within you. 

Allow the practice to unfold naturally and take only what resonates.
Thank you for walking this path of Feminine remembrance.

July 23, 2026 Waxing Gibbous MOON Day 9

Wild Woman

Throat Gateway

Truth- Expression- Integrity

Yin Waxing

Breath: INHALE- Nose EXHALE: Nose (Lunar Breath)

Sound: “Eyeeeee”

 

Lunar Medicine Daily Reflection

As the rising cycle moves into our Throat Gateway, the Moon begins activating the Wild Woman within.  The energy awakened during this waxing cycle now seeks fuller expression through truth, communication, and integrity. Here, you are invited to deepen your relationship with how you truly feel about things, situations and even relationships. And supports your honesty and courage to express your voice and your perspective, without making others wrong. 

Today invites you to recognize how often emotional needs, feelings, and truths remain unspoken.  As you bring greater compassion and tenderness to your voice and self-expression, you strengthen the Wild Woman and create communication rooted in care and authentic presence.

 

SCORPIO — WATER —Weaver Between Worlds

Feminine Lens: Descent as power · Depth perception · Emotional truth · Alchemical transformation · Intuitive knowing · Erotic intelligence · Regenerative force

Patriarchal distortions: Power through control · Emotional armor as strength · Suppression · Fear of vulnerability

Scorpio today supports the restoration of your voice and authentic expression, especially in the place that has felt unseen, unheard and unacknowledged.  This influence invites you to speak from the depth of what is true for you, and to realize how transformational it is to give ourselves the space to deeply reflect on our perspectives and voice them when necessary to others. Through our alignment to our deep truth, including our deep shadows,  we reveal to ourselves and others what is genuine, giving ourselves the very medicine of being seen, being honored and expressing ourselves fully. 



Elemental Influences: Water- Emotional Body

The focus today is on your emotional body. Pay attention to how you feel, and how you respond and/or react with others. This is an opportunity to deepen the relationship with your emotions through embodiment or dissolution.

Throat Gateway: Truth- Integrity- Expression

As the waxing Yin current continues to rise, the energy deepens within the Throat Gateway, inviting you to align your self with the truth you began to recognize yesterday. Here integrity becomes the bridge between inner knowing and how you move through the world. This gateway asks you to stand in honesty with yourself—to honor what is real for you, even when it requires courage, clarity, or a shift in direction. As you embody this alignment, your voice strengthens and flows as a direct expression of your truth, your perception, your unique authentic self. 

 

Shadow of the Throat Gateway

From Self-Sacrifice to Truth

Praised as virtue, this shadow teaches us to pour from an empty cup, to disappear in the name of love, service, or survival. But beneath the surface, this wound is ancient and very real. For centuries, women were executed, exiled, and silenced for speaking truth—for knowing, for healing, for seeing. The truth was the threat. It challenged the systems built on control and fear. And so we learned to hide our needs, our intuition, our embodied knowing. We learned to pretend, to perform, to make ourselves palatable—because our survival, and the survival of those we loved, depended on it. In order to live, we had to forget our truth.

The Medicine: Healed self-sacrifice becomes sacred truth-telling—a reclamation of the voice as a living instrument of life. To speak what is true for us—our needs, our boundaries, our ways of seeing—is not selfish. It is sacred. Our truth is not separate from the whole; it is a necessary thread in the weaving of collective harmony. When we deny it, something vital is missing from the fabric of life. Reclaiming our voice—metaphorically and literally—is how we begin to live in right relationship with the world around us. Speaking our truth is not a betrayal of connection—it is what allows real connection to exist. Many truths coexist, just as many rivers feed the ocean. When we honor our truth, we live in harmony with the whole without abandoning ourselves.

Affirmation: I AM TRUTH.

 

Lunar Embodied Inquiry

  • Where in my life am I being invited to align my actions more fully with what I know to be true for me?
  • What would it look like to move with greater courage and authenticity in expressing my truth today?
  • How can I embody integrity in my choices, allowing my inner knowing and outer actions to move as one?
Daily Lunar Medicine Cultivation
BreathWork
1.      Place your hand on the corresponding physical location of today’s gateway. Feel the energy of your hands activating this gateway, as you slow down your breath and become present of your inner world.
2.     Notice whether today is yin rising (front body) or yang descending (back body). Begin today’s breath rhythm, and focus the breath on the gateway either toward the front or the back of the body, Breathe slowly and mindfully, letting go of all other agendas, worries, judgments or concerns… giving yourself time to just be with your breath.
3.     Continue this breath until you feel merged with the breath cycle, where the breath is breathing you—can be 5 min, 10 or 15 minutes.
Voice Activation
4.     Pause for a few seconds as we shift into voice activation. Continue your hand placement in the corresponding gateway.
5.     Gently begin to sound directly into the corresponding gateway, slowly… allowing the sound to move you. This is not performative, so it does not need to sound any particular way—no judgment, no good or bad. Allow your sound to come from deep within, organically, slow or fast, loud or low, high tone or low tone.  
6.     Continue the vocalization, until you naturally feel complete. Then allow yourself to pause and come into silence. Notice what has shifted; mentally, emotionally, physically somatically. Let yourself just observe—not making any conclusions.  Allow yourself to be present, in silence, for a few minutes, just noticing. 
Integration: Humming, Vision, Breath
7.     Become aware of the body of the moon, at today’s phase.
8.     Envision the body of the moon at the corresponding gateway in your body and allow yourself to breathe into Her.
9.     With each breath, envision the body of the moon grow expanding larger and larger within you.
10.   As you breathe, add in gentle humming with each exhale—allowing yourself to fully merge with Her body.  Breathing slowly, humming gently and envisioning the moon growing with each breath.
11.    As the moon grows, allow it to encompass your physical body completely, and grow past the physical boundaries of your body. Slowing and gently, through breath and humming, the moon ends up holding you—as you see yourself sitting within the body of the moon.
12.   Continue a few breaths here, until you feel completely dissolved and merged with Her. 
13.    Allow the body of the moon to completely surround you, hold you, and nourish you.
14.   After a few minutes allow yourself to come into completion, bowing in gratitude, to the moon, the Universe and Source Mother all around you.
15.   Allow the gratitude to expand through your heart… and out in to the world.
