WHY ARE WE CALLED ‘MOON WIVES’?
It wasn’t yet 8am on 14th December 2022, and Mona was sat at a tiny café on a red-dirt road in a village-scape of Siem Reap. Mona’s pen exploded into clouds of colour: she sketched; she wrote. Fran could see her eyes alight as ideas leap and bound. Mona delighted in each new bolt of inspiration with child-like wonder. She sparkled with light from the other realms.
“Spiritual Midwives!” she exclaimed.
Fran paused. She liked it, but it wasn’t quite right.
They talked, discussed, played with words a bit more. ‘Midwives’ figuratively suggests someone assisting to help birthing and bring about a project or a result… we liked this. But the literal meaning of ‘mid-wife’, being ‘with woman’ (from the Middle English “midwife”: mid- “with” and “wif”- woman/wife/female) wasn’t fitting. We welcome all genders and sexes; we wanted to avoid any restrictions. And so, Mona’s eyes danced with inspiration…
“Moon Wives!” she beamed.
“Yes, Moon Wives.”
And so, Moon Wives was born.
The energy behind the name is still there: the desire to ‘birth’ or bring-into-being. For Moon Wives, it is people’s awakening that they wish to assist with. Moon Wives assists in people’s spiritual journeys, spiritual development, and healing (energetic, spiritual, emotional, psychological, physical).
WHY ARE WE CALLED ‘MOON WIVES’?
The moon plays an important role in our lives. And we especially delight in the smiling Cambodian moon! At every new moon, we set intentions for the cycle ahead. What do we want to manifest in our lives? And that isn’t necessarily material or physical (although it can be). Often, intentions are set around feelings: what do we want to feel? What do we want to experience? What do we want to release and let go? What do we want to invite in? What do we want to create? The cyclical nature of the moon cycle allows us to track our intentions: at the new moon, the seeds are planted. With the first quarter, waxing moon, the intentions grow and begin to take root. At the full moon, energies are high, and the intensity of intentions is maximised. Gradually, with the last quarter of the moon, energies begin to wane with the moon- almost like a slow outbreath. Intentions are rooted and in fruition. Just in time for the welcoming of the dark moon period. This is a time for quiet, for retreat, for rest. It is often a time when the moon may disclose and show you something you haven’t seen before; after all, at the dark moon, we are at our most vulnerable, in our rawest state. We can access our shadow side, just as the moon sits in the shadow of the sun. And then the cycle starts again… There’s a beauty to the seasons of the moon.

The myth of the moon's 27 wives in Hinduism
This myth of the moon’s 27 wives in Hinduism refers to the lunar deity Chandra’s marriage to the 27 daughters of Daksha, each representing a lunar mansion or nakshatra. According to the story, Chandra favored Rohini, one of his wives, leading to Daksha’s anger and a curse on Chandra. This myth is often interpreted as an allegorical representation of the moon’s movement through the constellations and its varying brightness throughout the lunar cycle.
