This particular essay is initially geared towards women but it also could give men an insight to what a woman goes through when she is "on her moon". It definitely gives the menstrual cycle a whole new spin. Who would have ever guessed, that so much could be discovered about a woman in a week. If anything this essay was more informative and broaden one's way of thinking. Yes, this particular essay brings up some ideas that seem unrealistic but does it hurt to give them a whorl. As a woman, could you imagine yourself being in sink with the moon? As bizarre as it may sound for some of us ladies that is a reality. The more we understand ourselves as women the better we are at a coping with that stressful week. In the past, women took a little more time for themselves and used the week "on their moon" to reflect and become creative. Supposedly, the most inner woman is expressed and important issues arise during that one-week. This essay used the power of words and turned the thing most women dread into something powerful and good. How else could we use word power to change other things that we encounter in our every day lives? It is not uncommon for most people to dread Mondays. So for kicks, try thinking of it as a magnificent Monday and treat it like a Friday. As for me, I think now I shall welcome my week "on the moon" and become better acquainted with the other side of me. Plus, use positive word power to influence other situations.
