It was a Substack post from Joanna P Colbert who posed the question: “What would you name the Full Moon where you live?” that enticed my creative juices to begin to flow!
So, I began delightfully simmering in what I’d name this Full Moon where I’m located – in a quaint, small village of 950 in Wisconsin, where we are currently experiencing melting snow, times of foggy conditions, and balmy temperatures.
Perfect weather in my book to be tucked cozily inside the four warm walls of my studio I lovingly refer to as Joyful Pause Cottage. A 10 x 12 space off the corner of my deck dedicated to all things that make my creative heart happy!
And where I’m currently joyfully getting lost in the art of mixed media collage creating what I refer to as animal oracle art.
My current company of completed creations is that of love-struck penguins, a unique yellow finch, a pondering hummingbird, and a flourishing fox.
This studio cottage, which took on the trendy name of a “She Shed” when all the rage of a place for a woman to call her own took off around 2013. Though I’d had my space since 2009 and never thought I’d be a trend-setter!
This space has nurtured my spirit, my heart, my creativity, and my dreams.
Where I’ve written many books, created an oracle deck, and guide others during oracle reading sessions.
And this whole month of January where I’ve been immersed in all things collage art that it occurred to me! And what I’d name the Full Moon where I live – here in my happy place – that I chose Creativity and Cocooning Moon.
And a lovely confirmation came this morning for the name I chose which was reflected in a reading I did for myself. The message from the cards to continue to ‘chop wood’ – doing small tasks each day – while following the feminine flow of what is in alignment for me at this time.
Not only is the Full Moon glowing in all her splendor, but so am I as I continue to create and trust the process.
So, how about you? What would you name this Full Moon where you live? I’d really love to know! And I’ll bet Joanna would like to know too if you want to pop over to her post and let her know also. And where you can also see what many others are naming the Full Moon where they live. So creative and inspiring!
