"The moon does not fight. It attacks no one. It does not worry. It does not try to crush others. It keeps to its course, but by its very nature, it gently influences. What other body could pull an entire ocean from shore to shore? The moon is faithful to its nature and its power is never diminished".
- Deng Ming-Dao
The Corn Moon is the full moon that rises typically in September, just before the Harvest Moon. It takes its name from Native American traditions, marking the time when corn is ripe and ready to gather. This moon symbolises abundance, nourishment, and the rewards of hard work.
Spiritually, the Corn Moon invites gratitude, grounding, and reflection on the cycles of effort and fruition.
In this painting, the Corn Moon glows with golden warmth—an emblem of sustenance, balance, and the deep connection between the earth’s gifts and the rhythms of life.
