Planning for Function and Flow

A business and life planning and reflection process to elevate your awareness and outcomes

Join us in using the moon to create rhythm in your life and your planning practice. 

It weaves in our desire for space and flow in our worlds.

This is not about meditating our way into profits or outcomes. It is about acknowledging that weaving masculine and feminine wisdom is key to our success and tapping into both is vital.

Moon Cycle Planning can be used for business strategy and management or for personal life planning.  

Let's create a rhythm of planning and reflection.

Develop your next business or life plan

Discover your overarching theme and use the moon's rhythm to guide your planning

Periods, Cycles, and Giraffes...Oh My!

Creating Rhythm with the Periodicity of the Moon

When we decided we wanted to create more space in our business, to breathe, to create, to produce, we looked for a rhythm. We were seeking a way to create the consistency that we benefited from with the old typical 30/60/90 business cycle, but with more flow, more space.

Periodicity is the quality or character of being periodic, the tendency to recur at intervals, also thought of is period, revolution, rhythm, round, and series

We decided to use the Moon Cycles to create periodicity. The moon cycles are similar to the months, have a consistent rhythm, and we are familiar with them. The moon is always available for us to observe, and the moon has a deep and rich history for humans, through the mists of time. It offered the function and flow we were seeking.

Periods, Cycles, and Giraffes...Oh My!

We created our planning flow. 

  • PERIOD: New Moon to New Moon is a Period
  • CYCLE: Four Periods is a Cycle, approx. 12 weeks
  • GIRAFFE: Four Cycles is a Giraffe, approx. 15 months (this is how long it takes to gestate a baby giraffe.)

Each block of time has a process. We create our Giraffe Plan for the Planning Cycle (approx. 15 months). Then we create a Cycle Plan for the 4-Period blocks. At the beginning of each period, we focus in on what needs to happen in the 28-day time block.

This process separates us from the deeply embedded structure of the calendar and creates space to breathe into the planning. It provides a fresh perspective, and a new way of seeing guidance and making decisions.

Moon Cycle Planning was created by Karen Collacutt and Karen Kessler, long time entrepreneurs and seekers of wisdom and connection.
