On the night of the first full moon of the year, when the Moon enters the watery house of Cancer and climbs high as the Wolf Moon, you are summoned to the inner temple of Selene, She‑of‑the‑Silver‑Chariot, Queen of Night and Tides. Lay aside the garments of haste and duty; cross this threshold as one who remembers that rest is a rite and tenderness a law older than empires. In this chapter, you do not merely observe the Moon, you present yourself before the Moon Herself, veiled in white, crowned with light, watching over oceans, shores, and sleeping hearts.
Enter your chamber as if entering a sanctuary. Let the lamps be dim, the air cool and soft, the noise of the world left beyond the door. Spread white or pale blue cloth upon a chosen surface and set there a single white candle, a clear bowl of water, and, if it pleases you, a stone that has tasted the Moon, moonstone, selenite, or clear quartz, cool beneath your fingers. Around them you may place symbols of home and belonging: a small key, a shell, a photograph of those to whom your heart returns. In this temple, your body is not a machine of labor; it is a vessel awaiting luminous filling.
When the hour feels ripe and night has settled, sit before this altar. Place one hand upon your heart and the other upon your belly, seat of waters and tides. Draw nine slow breaths, each an offering. With each inhale, imagine the pale glow of Selene descending from the high vault of the sky, pouring into your chest; with each exhale, let the weight of the last year slip down your spine and into the earth. Then take fire to wick, and as the candle awakens, speak softly, yet with the authority of one who calls a goddess by her true name:
“Selene, white‑robed Lady of the Night,
Rider of the silver‑shining path,
Watcher of seas and sleepers,
I kindle this flame in your honor.
Look upon me with gentle eyes.
Make of my heart a quiet shore beneath your Moon.”
