Once upon a time,
not so far away,
In the center of the old world
(Before corruption
by powers that be )
Despite domination that took central stage
Luna Rossa shares a Goddess secret too good to keep buried.
It brings out through A Moon & Menstrual Cycles Agenda & Art Journal the oldest great civilization of the Goddess in the world, Cucuteni-Tripolye culture (5000 to 3500 BC) + indigenous wisdom about women’s sacred blood and inspiration to align to nature’s rhythm in our own bodies.
In order to make this treasure available for feminine practice in English, a Pre-orders/Crowdfunding Campaign is on HERE.
Only digital rewards are possible until we reach a minimum threshold for printing a full colour, high quality hard cover art publication. Get a wonderful gift for yourself and sisters on the path! Join the campaign to contribute to birthing this gift for an international audience!

Luna Rossa: Moon & Menstrual Cycles Agenda & Art Journal
The inspiration that Luna Rossa as a publication taps into in terms of art is the Cucuteni Tripolye culture, the oldest documented great civilization of the Goddess.
This culture, based in today’s Romania and Ukraine territories, is a proof great civilizations can exist without weapons and can thrive through art and partnership at all levels (between men and women, within social groups, with nature).
The dialogue week stays open to continue to Imagine Creatively together what else is possible in our co-creation of a New Earth, emobodying more feminine wisdom and life-protecting values.
Please join to contribute your own perspective, from your own country and context. There is no global without many flavours of local contexts that can inspire each other.
