Sign up for L’Amour Rêveries, a monthly newsletter published on the first quarter moon of each month.
Lunations, like new moons and full moons, are a way to mark cycles and the passage of time. Everyone is born under a different moon phase, which can signal qualities about an individual’s disposition, goals, outlook, and approach to life. I was born under a first quarter moon, so I’d like to carry that energy signature forward into this monthly offering.
