The Mystai of the Moon are a sisterhood who share a common love of the Lunar Mysteries. For over a decade we have shared love, laughter, and a deep spiritual connection both in person and through the aether. We realized shortly after our beginning that the seasons vary in their manifestations and intensity depending on where in the world you are, and when some of us are experiencing the blistering heat of summer, others are nose-deep in parkas, but the Moon, She Who Shines For All, is the same for all Her daughters.
Goddess of the Month
