A new slant on only utilizing the Moon and the phases thereof gives the user a new perspective on how their lives are intertwined and shaped. Along with the software program it is a snap to have a Moon Natal Chart in minutes.
Ms. Simms, has used easy to understand information that the readers is able to utilize nearly immediately. Can be understood by the novice to the advanced which is unique in using a charting system. Each chapter entails basic information on the how, why and what of the moon phases. Slanting for those that are following the Wiccan path there are rituals that may be put in force for those that wish to utilize rituals along with the moon, solar phases. The rituals are new and slightly unique.
Using the software is smooth and easy. No fancy download hoops to jump through. Simply insert, follow directions and within two minutes (Yes, I timed it) you are on the road to charting your Moon information.
Although I was disappointed that it was lacking a few resources that may have enhanced the software, I was intrigued by the information given. Running the program then looking up the signs giving the reader full and concise information. Once the reader has gone over the information a new look may be given to their present life and changes that may be worked on.
The descriptions give each house along with the placement of the moons phase. There is little doubt as to finding the information you need as it is sectioned by the phases. Taking you through not only the moon phases but the solar as well. Particular interest again was the solar and moon eclipses with the details given.
I especially enjoyed the prenatal information based on the time and moon phases. Giving new insight and thought to before being born. I was impressed with this part as with other programs it is usually not mentioned.
The colored palettes in the book of the art work was a wonderful addition to to the book. These are the art work of Ms. Simms and Molly A. Sullivan, such named as “The Images of the Goddess” and Moon themes. My favorite was the “Disseminating Moon". After seeing the palettes, I must tell you that I surfed over to the site to take a more intense look at the work offered.
Would I recommend this book? For those that wish a new look into their lives by using the moon and phases, I would say yes. The material is light, informational and easy to follow.
Readers will have hours of pleasure and fun preparing their charts due to the refreshing presentation of material.
