Thunder Moon

(written for the first full moon following Hurricane Beryl)

Thunder Moon, you call to us
We call upon your energy

They can’t say they didn’t warn us
That July would bring the storms
So we would learn from this upheaval
And prepare to be reborn

Now the storm is behind us
And we focus on rebuilding
The cleansing made space for
Reflections on self-healing

Buck Moon, you call to us
We call upon your wisdom

Most of us felt the loss of power
A dimness before the light
Giving us the opportunity
To focus on what feels right

A sudden fight for survival
Living in shadows and light both
Sitting with the stillness
That drives our inner growth

Berry Moon, you call to us
We call upon your release

We understand the need to let go
Of old habits that no longer serve us
Focus on being healthier
Starting with what’s inside us

We heal ourselves from inside
And let the inner self gain clarity
Manifesting our energy into dreams
And dreams into a new reality

Salmon moon, you call to us
We call upon your visions

We want to harness your energy
By setting clear intentions
Letting go of negative energy
And focusing on transformation

We spend time in your light
Absorbing the wisdom of this time
Allowing your force to guide us
In our connection with the divine
