In ancient times, menstruating women were believed to possess special powers that could harm others if not managed properly. Practical concerns, like attracting predatory animals due to the scent of blood, may have led to their seclusion in separate huts for community safety. Since many women menstruated with the new moon, these "moon huts" were filled with women who shared their powers and engaged in sacred rituals. Upon emerging, they were respected for the visions and insights gained during this time, often guiding the community with advice, such as hunting locations. This book is an attempt to unravel some of those stories, to examine the folklore and traditions that have surrounded menstruation throughout history. It is a journey through time and across cultures, exploring the beliefs that have shaped how we understand our bodies and ourselves. At its core, this is a conversation that should have been happening more openly for generations. It's a reflection on how we, as a society, can move beyond the superstitions and silences that have kept menstruation in the shadows, towards a more open, informed, and respectful understanding of this vital aspect of life. Whether you're reading this book out of curiosity, personal experience, or a wish to break the stigma around menstruation, I hope it reminds you that our stories-however personal or hidden-hold great power. They connect us, challenge us, and open new perspectives. Welcome to this journey !!
