A Meditation System Synced With The Moon
In 1973 Charles Musès wrote an article for Journal for the Study of Consciousness. In it he outlined a meditation system based on the phases of the moon. He had devised this system after studying ancient calendar markings and anthropological reports about the Witoto People.
I have reproduced his full article here, as it is not available anywhere else online. I have also included code to generate the mediation schedule based on the calculations presented in the article.
The full article is wide-ranging and erudite, but not necessary to understand the meditation system. The basic premise is that the time when the moon is waning is the time to focus inward and develop oneself. When the moon begins waxing is the time for outward action and expression. The math required to calculate when each meditaiton should happen is a bit complicated, so I have written code to do it for us. Not only will it display the appropriate meditation here, but it can also generate a calendar file suitable for importing into iCal or Google Calendar (or any other) so that each meditation is displayed on the right day.
