Thank you for all your help and advice!

Here is info from this article ( White Moon Or Red Moon Cycles: How The Moon Affects Your Period & Personal Growth by Paige Butzlaff) about moon cycles which answer your questions 🥰 😊

> The moon is a hot (and technically cold) topic. Full moons were said to make werewolves appear, and some people believe that the full moon causes madness.

Waxing moon = Pink moon cycle 💗 “If your period falls near a waxing crescent moon, you’re on a Pink Moon Cycle. This is associated with the Maiden archetype and growing, enthusiasm, and physical vigor.”

Waning moon = Purple moon cycle 💜“Does your period fall in the waning moon stage? Then you’re on a Purple Moon Cycle. Think of autumn: the inward reflection and a time of letting go. A Purple Moon Cycle may indicate that you’re in a time of self-discovery.”

If I’m right, I’m on a pink cycle. Which would be now & is another explanation for my cramps.

Thank you so much! 💗

I have seen people or woman to be specific, post about how they use their menstruation 🩸 as an offering… In my religion it is considered “dirty” to be on your memes to the point some households don’t allow the women to cook. For us it’s not that full on as there’s no reason to treat the woman as “dirty” however, we are not allow to go out place of worship, pray, or touch sacred religious scripts…  
To me it a beautiful thing as I would not have my children without it, and I had no menses most my adult life and now I lost weight it has come back so I feel more like a woman…  
To me that time if the month is the best as I use that time to focus more on my craft and since praying isn’t allowed…  
It’s like a spiritual holiday if you ask me….  
So can you use menstruation 🩸 or the actual time for magic? I would so yes why not. It is a natural part of being a woman so go for it I know I do! 😌

Treated myself to a new herbal tincture- this one is called “Cramp Ease - Menstrual Support”.

 ![Menstrual Blend](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/3/b/3b6ceacb9e740b3d56bafcc153dbab4675fbef81.jpeg)

For anyone else who gets curious about these things, the herbs used are:

- Cramp bark
- Black cohosh root
- Catnip leaf and flower
- Wild yam root
- Skullcap leaf

I’ve only taken it once so far, but it seemed to help deal with the cramps during my least favorite time of the month! I’m going to try taking it a bit before cramps begin to see how that works as well.

Sharing here for any other herbal enthusiasts looking for cramp help! 🤝 ❤
