“The Moon signifies the matrix of being, the psychosomatic foundation of the Self, the womb and the ground of life, the body and the soul, that which senses and intuits, the feeling nature, the impulse and capacity to gestate and bring forth, to receive and reflect, to relate and respond, to need and to care , to nurture and to be nurtured, the condition of dependence and interdependence, the diffusely Conscious and the Unconscious, the Anima, the eminent, the centripetal, the home, the fertile source and ground , the cycle of manifestation, the waxing and waning, the eternal round, the ruler of the night sky, of the diffusely visible and the invisible, multiple sources of luminosity within the encompassing darkness, the policentric, Yin, the whole that contains the part and potentia, Luna and Lunar deities, the great Mother Goddess, together with aspects of the child, puela puer, constituting the relation Matrix of Life.”
Richard Tarnas, Cosmos and Psyche, 2006
“The Moon is a general symbol of the body, in counterpoint to the Sun, which is a general symbol of the mind. In and of itself the Moon signifies the ways in which the impressions of our early childhood conditioning have imprinted the patterning of our bodies, our instincts and our emotional responses to life, all pre cognitive faculties. When we respond to situations based on our instincts and feelings, “when we act without thinking”, these behaviors often can be traced back to what we experienced in early life when we were under our mother`s influence. As such the Moon colors what makes us feel nurtured and secure, how we expressed nurturing to others and how we cope with emotional stress in pour lives. Like the ocean tides that are regulated by the lunar phases, the tides in our bodies, as the ebb and flow of our moods are under the domain of the Moon. While the Moon continues to symbolize all these other qualities, when evaluating its role in terms of the life`s purpose we must see it as pointing to how an individual brings the conceptual vision of the life intention, as the depicted by the Sun, into the physical world by grounding it in the daily actions of everyday life. “
Demetra George, Astrology and the Authentic Self, 2009
“the essence of interior design will always be about people and how they live. it is about the realities of what makes for an attractive, civilized, meaningful environment, not about fashion or what`s out. this is not an easy job”
