Session 3: The Full Moon
Luminous Nectar - Floral Syrup Making
May 17th: 1pm-4pm (High Falls, NY)
The third gathering of Body as Moon centers on the phase of ovulation, the turning point of outward expression, connection, and offering. Energetically, this is the crest of the cycle, when vitality rises to the surface and energy reaches its fullness, naturally seeking connection beyond the self. What has been forming within is now ready to be offered outward, whether through communication, creativity, or relationship.
Ovulation is often spoken about only in terms of fertility, but its deeper meaning is visibility. It is a phase of bloom, voice, magnetism, and creativity. Even for those who do not ovulate physically, this phase lives on as an energetic state: the impulse to reach outward, to collaborate, and to offer something of oneself to the world at its moment of ripeness. The psyche is more responsive, expressive, and attuned to others. This phase can also reflect post-menopause, when outward expression and visibility return, no longer shaped by fertility but rooted in the confidence of lived experience.
During this session, we will gather blooming flowers from the land and bring them together in a shared act of arrangement and offering. Working collectively, we will create a flower mandala. Flowers carry the same intelligence as this phase of emergence—they open, turn outward, and respond to light and relationship. Alongside this, we will prepare a simple floral syrup to take home. This syrup becomes a tangible reminder of moments when the body feels ready to reach outward—toward connection, creativity, and engagement with life.
This third session explores how the ovulatory phase shapes communication, relationships, confidence, desire, and creative expression—and how to recognize and honor moments of bloom without forcing them to last.
