Over the age of time, Ancient traditions have formed a kinship with mother nature... It is in the heart of the earth that this ancient knowledge resides. Here the power of healing is captured to share with your senses and take you on a journey...

I believe the key to an outward glow, is the well being of our spirit. Here at Lulani Moon, I endeavor to bring perfect balance and tranquility to the mind, body and soul working with the gifts of our living environment. My path is to support others to hear the song that echos within them.. to see the gifts that the land has to offer and that everyone of us has equal opportunity to be a light.. to build a relationship with the animals, the plants and the Spirit within and without. A qualified Horticulturist with a passion for herbal wellness, Carmen weaves this knowledge through out her services & offers workshops to explore connections to the plant world. I am a Ceremonial Beauty Therapist, Reiki Practitioner and an Incense crafter, dedicated the path of plants and service.

Hope for the future of our environment is fading.
I would never have thought that in my life time, I would feel this way.. for I am usually full of hope.
The foundation of my work and who I am as a woman is, deeply rooted to the land.
And if there is no hope, then what?
::
Hope is something that lives in every seed that I plant.
It opens and closes in every flower that shines it's brilliance across the garden.
It calls across the sky when the Galahs come home to roost & when the peach tree buds.
::
We are standing at the edge of a frightening uncertainty of where the future is headed.
Sacred sites all around the world continue to be decimated, ancient forests logged, waterways polluted, city parklands diminishing...for what?
Progress?
For Golf..
For data centres..
For cookie cutter development.
::
The scales are unbalanced, the belly of Mother Earth is aching.
The collective is disoriented and has forgotten the vital pulse of life that sustains us.
The most radical thing we can do, is tend to the land & care for Country in a way that uses our voice, hands and heart.
An act of deep care to nurture the old ways within the force of modernity.
::
I smile at this almost flowering White Sage, knowing that my hands helped to nurture this. My breath cycled with the many moons and sunrises to know this plant. It started from one seed..
A seed full of hope.
::
The most radical act. To practice being a Biljna Žena. A woman of the plants, cultivating ancestral connection as I turn over the soil, knowing that in the song of my bones, hope will find a way & I will not be silent or silenced.
::
Be radical.
Be kind.
&
Use your hands and heart to create a better world.
We need more graceful warriors.

🪶🦅Whistling Kites🦅🪶

Birds are incredibly markers of time.
Their song was woven into the landscape long before human arrival.
In the early Cretaceous period, approximately 125 million years ago, birds were dreamed into being.
The land was vastly different, the super continent Gondwana, blowing it's untameable winds.
Birds scanning the fertile earth for any stone they could sing their song into.
:::
The Whistling Kite, Haliastur sphenurus, like all birds, are literally creatures of habit.
As dawn separates the stars and tree tops, the Whistling Kite calls across the land to mark it's territory and to signal the hunt.
:::
Just a couple of weeks ago, I witnessed a Whistling Kite swoop a young Maggie up and carried it off into the wheat crop.
:::
Ruthless, skillful birds they are also known as
"Fire Hawks" like other related Kites & Falcons.
:::
With a deep relationship to fire, these resourceful birds know how to be with fire.
They will pick up burning twigs from grass fires, and strategically drop the stick in unburned grassed areas to start new fires. Flushing out prey, they then come in for the taking.
:::
Sitting with the bioregional relationship to Kaurna Country, along the Yarralinka, they teach us of the moving seasons, about adaptability and how to be with what we are presented with at the time.
Gathering all of the necessary information and then acting from a place of deep internal truth.
They ask us to be with the wisdom of the land and to sit as the forever student.
In humble silence and then knowing when to act with the grace of a warrior.
:::
Fire. The symbol of transformation, the conduit for change.
May the call of the Whistling Kite, ignite the flame of the warrior.

🍐 GOURD MOTHER 🍐

Well...for those who have been following my Gourding Grief journey...
They are READY!
I grew Gourds with my Dad during his cancer experience. These otherworldly things, somehow connected us.
And after he died, so too did the vine.
🍐
My 1st year growing them. With great success!
Gourd prep is quite a process!
Once dried on the vine, they take months to cure.
🍐
Think FUNKY mold...black spots and almost rotten in appearance...
Then the magic comes.
🍐
They will dehydrate internally and harden on the outside which then makes the perfect surface to craft with...
Just today...fossicking in my local tiny op shop and I find 4 GOURD CRAFTING books...apparently there was a local artist in town who also loved gourds. She recently passed away too.
🍐
SO...let the crafting begin
What you think Dad?

🤍 MAGPIE SEASON IS HERE 🤍

This week, I have seen too many baby Maggies squashed on the road.
A local sweetie alive this morning. Dead. Squashed this afternoon.
::
Sure, accidents happen. But, are easily avoidable too.
Fledglings are about..this means baby birds have fledged the nest and will spend time on the ground before they fly.
They learn to forgage and develop their motor skills while following their parents closely.
::
At this time they are INCREDIBLY vulnerable.
::
So please.
Take it easy on the roads.
If you see young chicks about, slow down.
Give them time to cross.
Beep your horn if you have to. This works too.
::
Also, reptiles are now coming out of brumation, give them time to cross too.
::
Kindness, care and patience can save a few lives.
::
With nature and wild northerly winds
Carmen 🤍

Just flowers. From my garden.
For you 🩷
::
No big words or polished reel.
Just pollinator delights.
::
A reminder that tiny colourful universes await.
They wait for us to remember.
To find ourselves in stamens and filaments
Petals & Scent.
