Buck Moon Sound Bath

The Old Farmer’s Almanac calls July’s full moon  “The Buck Moon” because the antlers of male deer are in full development at this time. In many wisdom traditions around the world, deer are considered sacred carriers of peace, reminding us to open our hearts and love gently and unconditionally.  This first of two Aquarius full moons in 2021 evokes the spirit of inclusivity and inspires us to redefine “community” for the diversifying, modern world.

The Aquarius full moon creates space for differentiation and discourse. In other words, accept yourself, then be yourself. Easier said than done, but a worthy challenge to accept under the first of two Aquarius full moons in 2021. Shame and vulnerability expert Brene Brown uncovered in her research: The desire to fit in is actually the main barrier to accessing a sense of belonging.

In her words, “Belonging is the innate human desire to be part of something larger than us. Because this yearning is so primal, we often try to acquire it by fitting in and by seeking approval, which are not only hollow substitutes for belonging but often barriers to it. Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.”

My desire for this sound Bath is to create a space where you feel the spirit of community while you experience your personal heart-opening sound journey.

With love
