Episode Details
Back to Episodes05: The Wild Within – Artemis and the New Moon
Description
Hello friends, and welcome to Episode 5 of Darkness and Light.
In this episode, we turn toward the energy of the Waxing Crescent Moon, emerging from the darkness of the Dark Moon and calling us into action, direction, and new beginnings.
Guided by the Greek goddess Artemis, we explore the Wild Within — that instinctive, autonomous part of ourselves that knows how to move through the world with clarity, courage, and precision.
I hope you enjoy the show.
Blessings,
Wendy

• Artemis as protector of childbirth and guide through transition
• the connection between animals, instinct, and the wild within
• finding Artemis in the modern world — from wilderness to everyday life
• a guided visualization to set intention and send your arrows forward
