Tina has always had a fascination with the moon. After studying the phases of the moon in astronomy classes and the astrological impact it can have on personal transformation, she began to explore the spiritual connections that the moon has brought to many cultures over thousands of years. No matter where we are in the world, we can see the moon. It’s something that we all have in common.
The moon has brought great comfort to her life, particularly during a time when she felt a loss of personal identity. This was during her first two years of becoming a mother – a time of joy, but a time of anxiety, depression and confusion. She was a mother, but who was she really? She took many walks during that time, gazing at the moon and trying to make sense of who she was and what purpose her life served.
Taking the knowledge she had of the moon and its place in spiritual transformation, she combined it with her training as a life purpose coach and a journaling workshop facilitator. Together, this combination created a path of self-discovery for her – a path that she want to share with the many mothers who feel a loss of personal identity.
In the book, Journaling by the Moonlight: A Mother’s Path to Self-Discovery, the author shares her personal story of transformation and how it led her on a path of self-exploration.
The book gives stories from other moms who embarked on similar journeys. Designed as a workbook with a journaling format, the book allows for personal reflection with many opportunities to answer the question, “I’m a mother, but who am I really?”
Working with the phases of the moon as a source of personal transformation, mothers who are challenged by the loss of personal identity are gently guided on their own paths of self-exploration - leading to a life of purpose, passion and creative expression. The accompanying deck of 54 journaling prompt cards (divided into nine phases of the moon, including the blue moon) support the self-discovery process outlined in the book.
Mothers will explore the cultural and astrological meanings of the moon, while being guided through a process that is beautifully aligned with each phase of the moon:
