Florais da Lua emerged from the loving look at all phases of the moon cycle - whether in the sky or in the womb, as well as the stages of a womb holder's life.

This plant essences' system was channelled and systematised by Brazilian therapist and medicine woman Anna Sazanoff @saberesdamaeterra, and are a loving and powerful medicine that has been supporting the healing of many people across the globe.

Through ceremony and with intention, it is the plant essence that comes to you, bringing exactly what you need in this present moment. With an open heart, you welcome the essence to present itself, rather than choosing an essence with your mind and ego. It is an encounter between your own essence and that of the plant.

Once the plant essence presents to you, you will journey together for 28 days, through all 4 moon phases, typically starting from a New Moon, as it is generally a time of deep introspection and great insight. Each inner and outer moon phase holds a distinct energy, messages, and works on different aspects of ourselves. The Moon Essences support you through this process, bringing to the surface what needs to be witnessed, loved, released, and healed.

They can be experienced by people of all ages, genders and walks of life, however have a profound effect on those who were born with a womb.

It is beautiful to support labour and birth - either taken in the month leading up to birth or as a single dose of 13 drops of the Mother essence as the baby indicates they are ready to come Earth-side.

It is made with equal amounts of brandy of low alcoholic percentage and alkaline water as the base, with the drops of the Mother plant essence being added during the ceremony. The base is prepared in ritual, and the water solarised and charged with amethyst or rose quartz.

Contraindicated to people who are allergic to alcohol.

Taking the Moon Essences calls for full willingness, trust, and surrender. The essences work primarily on the more subtle layers of Self, at an emotional, spiritual, ancestral level. It has, however, shown to have profound healing physical effects on women experiencing changes in their cycle, as well as uterine and ovarian conditions, and to access and heal deep womb memories and wounds, including those that are trans-generational.

Nature - we are nature - is cyclical and of resounding wisdom, only perceived when we are present. Everything is part of a larger symphony and interconnected dance.

A womb holder’s menstrual cycle and life stages are deeply connected to Nature, to the Earth, Moon and Sun.

The length of our inner moon (menstruation) and the moon cycles are on average 28 days. There are four phases in our inner cycle, four moon phases, four seasons in a year.

If we pay close attention to what nature is showing us, if we listen, in presence, to what our wise body is communicating, we can clearly see the root of any physical and emotional disharmony.

The Florais da Lua® / Moon Essences deeply support this process, especially when it comes to disharmonies in our cycle, womb and ovaries.
