The Lunar Moon Cycle is a 28-day process of self-healing based on a particular attribute, e.g. in Lunar Month 1 we have counsel on Communication, the counsel of the spirit of the Blue Gum tree and of the Blue Gum devas. Each month is a self-contained healing cycle, and the thirteen in sequence form the Lunar Self-Healing Process.

The Waxing Essence is to be taken in the first growth or "yang" phase of the moon. It helps us to recognise and to be conspicuously aware of any emotional blockages. The yang energy associated with this essence is characterised by activity, determination and courage and is connected to the healing of emotional blockages. This essence is to be taken for two weeks.

The Waning Essence maintains the counsel and represents the "yin" phase of the moon. It is associated with the principles of nurturing and caring. It nourishes instinctiveness, feeling, receptiveness and growth. essence is also taken for a two-week cycle.
