Seasonal Moon Cycle Meditation for the Southern Hemisphere | The Twelve Moons of the Southern Sky

Описание: The Twelve Moons of the Southern Sky is a teaching song that walks the lunar year as it unfolds in the Southern Hemisphere, where seasons turn beneath different stars and the land speaks in its own rhythm.

Across many cultures, the moons were named not by dates, but by what the land was doing - what needed attention, what needed restraint, what needed care. These names were teachings, carried month by month, guiding people to live in relationship with place rather than against it.

This song honours that way of knowing, shaped for the south. Each moon reflects a lived reality of southern landscapes and cycles:

• Fire Moon and Dry Moon speak of heat, scarcity, and the wisdom of restraint
• Fish Moon and Ant Moon remind us of balance, cooperation, and taking only what is needed
• Seed Moon and Frost Moon hold quiet faith, patience, and endurance
• Storm Moon and Kangaroo Moon teach preparation, strength, and steady resilience
• Bird Moon and Snake Moon mark return, renewal, and necessary change
• Flower Moon and Frog Moon celebrate abundance, water, and the closing of the yearly circle

These are not rigid definitions, nor a single tradition. They are listening points - invitations to observe, reflect, and remember that the land itself keeps time.
This song may be used as:

• a learning tool for seasonal and lunar awareness
• a meditative walk through the year
• a ritual or reflective listening piece
• a way of reconnecting with land-based time, wherever you are in the south

There is no need to follow the moons perfectly. Listen when one calls to you. Notice what is rising, resting, or asking for care.

The moons turn.
The land remembers.
And so do we.

As above, so below.
As within, so without.
As the universe, so the soul.
As the land, so the living.
As the season turns, so do we.

Take what resonates… Leave the rest.
