Throughout the year, as it moves steadily through its phases, the moon is a serene teacher of the quiet drama of life's passages. Now, in In the Light of the Moon, Carolyn McVickar Edwards retells thirteen traditional lunar stories from around the world and accompanies them with moon songs and ideas for celebration.

Organized into four sections corresponding to the waxing, full, waning, and dark moons, this book draws from the faiths, cultures, and traditions of Australia, Britain, ancient Egypt, Central America, Korea, Polynesia, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, India, and the Amazon, among other lands and peoples.

By seeking to explain the origins and cycles of Earth's nearest neighbor and our relationship to it, each story enter¬tains, instructs, and inspires further curiosity about the mysteries of the natural world.
