Subject: What the Beaver Moon can teach us 🌑

Congratulations to 4-D Mentor Kristin Hodson, a newly certified AASECT Certified Sex Therapy Supervisor!

Dear 4-D Network friends,


Beaver moon is the last full moon before the winter solstice; some refer to it as the 'mourning moon' – and according to pagan traditions, it is a time to let go of past troubles or grief and look forward to a new season and soon, a new year. It is a time for beavers (and us) to head inside, slow down, and trust in the hard work we’ve done together over the harvest season while we settle in for the coming frost. This is an excellent time to practice internal healing work, focus on family life, and build a spiritual connection to our communities and nature. Plants and animals prepare for this moment in September and October, prepping their bodies for the harsher elements by growing thicker, denser fur or more feathers. When we prepare our bodies for the frost season by slowing down, spending more time inside, and getting warm and cozy, we are less vulnerable to the colds and flus that tend to circulate around this time.

October’s consultation marked the beginning of practicing the 4-D Wheel with our clients on zoom. The highlight of that consultation was centered on how to give the power back to our clients with questions like: “When you stand in the heart quadrant, what percentage of these emotions do you want to feel in that quadrant before you move to the next quadrant?"


As Sage Wheeler suggested at the end of the session: “Let’s bring together the balance back to The 4-D Wheel as we reorganize it because that balance has always existed in you, and it will show up at some point in your life.” What a wonderful way to bring hope back to our clients!


The next consultation training with Catherine de Sauvage will be November 16th at 9 a.m!


Next consultation:

Thursday, December 21st, at 9 a.m.


“Amazing what can come forth in just a short time.”

~Testimonial from Nicole, 4-D Network Consultation attendee.

This month's HOT JUICY TIP


Here are some ways to help align yourself with the spiritual energies of the full Beaver Moon:

  • Look at your schedule and plan to wrap up projects so you can slow down before the winter solstice.

  • Spend time dreaming and coming up with new ideas, but delay action on those ideas until the new year. Let them gestate over the winter rather than trying to birth them immediately. All fantasy and no action, what a juicy tease :)

  • Warm up with hot tea, warm scarves, hot water bottles, and heating pads, and spend time by a fire. Similar to Hygge.

  • Sleep a little more than you usually would.

  • Snuggle and spend more time with your closest loved ones.

  • Enjoy sensual experiences like fresh baking, hot baths, and making love.

  • Wintertime is a good season for making babies. September is the most common month for birthdays, as humans (and beavers) like to get to it when it’s cold outside!

  • Direct your energy to your spiritual and internal practices, such as meditation, reflection, journaling, counseling, or whatever other spiritual and emotional connection works for you.


Next year’s East Coast Summit will be hosted by Dr. Elliott Kronenfeld, and if we are lucky, he will read to us again! The date will be late September/early October 2024 in Maine.
