A whole other world exists in the light of a moon-filled night that few of us even notice.
In the height of summertime's heat, we drift outdoors at dusk to refresh ourselves in the temperate air of evening. Cricket song and the glow of fireflies come together with ever-lengthening shadows to create a natural symphony of overlapping sensations that invigorate the body and gladden the soul. As the sun sets, the vivid colors of most flowers and leaves fade, becoming a dull grey, but moon gardens provide us with a space to appreciate Mother Nature's bounty long after the light of day has retreated. Designed to be enjoyed from dusk until the coming of the darkness, these gardens serve as a perfect complement to silvery moonlight, mild summer nights, and the spirit of rejuvenation.
Most plant life worships the sun, but a select few shrubs and flowers come into their own in luna's glow. The silvery leaves of lamb's ears and artemisia reflect the radiance of the moon, while the bright-white flowers adorning yucca and evening primrose seem to shimmer brilliantly in dusk's gloom. Certain blossoms such as the moonflower and four o'clocks open only at night, releasing their sweet fragrances in spectacular displays of scent and beauty. While creating a moon garden, remember to take each human sense into account. We appreciate the ghostly beauty of nighttime nature best when we can sit comfortably until our eyes have adjusted to the surrounding darkness. Bamboo and thick grasses make a comforting sound when bandied about by gentle nighttime breezes.
Transforming a portion of your existing yard or patio into a moon garden is simple, and the pleasure you will derive from your nighttime retreat will become worth it once you start to enjoy it. Green spaces come alive at night when nocturnal blossoms release their perfume into the air and ethereally lovely and luminous foliage dances in the breeze. In a moon garden, relaxation is a simple matter of attuning yourself to the stillness of evening and seeing, for the first time, the myriad shades of beauty that can be found in the darkness.
The 'Law Of Attraction' as we know it today has been practiced since the beginning of time. Ancient Eastern Cultures have integrated this practice in their daily life as prayers, chanting, and religious rituals. Every action is meant to deepen the focus, belief, or faith towards acquiring one's goals in life. Mantra chanting is a repetitive exercise that forces the human psyche to visualize and channelize the mind's energy to acquire one's wishes and desires. The accumulation of Mantra energy provides a powerful impetus for manifesting your desires into reality. Mantra meditation has been in existence since ancient times and has withstood the test of time very well. Indian Hindu scriptures are full of accounts that reveal conclusively that anyone can achieve what they want if they focus on their goals and chant the Mantras that accelerate the Laws of Universal Attraction.
