It’s a key medicine in Anishinaabe tradition and the third teaching from Grandmother Moon who makes 13 appearances throughout the year to watch over Mother Earth’s children and light their paths with her gentle wisdom. March is an important time of cleansing and renewal after a long winter, and drinking sap from the maple tree balances our blood and heals us. But more than the physical, sugar moon is about the spiritual health of our lives. Do we honor and respect all our relations—the people, animals, rocks, stars and trees? Do our daily actions contribute to the well-being of everything that surrounds us? As we drink maple sap, we are reminded how all creation nurtures and sustains us, and our responsibility towards all life according to divine law. SPECIAL FEATURES 3rd issue in this captivating series of original woodland designs illustrating the 13 teachings from Grandmother Moon according to Anishinaabe tradition. An exceptional collection showcasing one of the most recognized forms of Indigenous art that is cherished for its beauty, as well as its powerful depiction of Anishinaabe themes and traditions. A limited work of art! Only 4,000 coins available worldwide—highly collectible! A unique collectible that captures the rich artistic and cultural heritage of Canada’s Indigenous people. DESIGN Algonquin artist Frank Polson has created a captivating image of a full moon filling the sky as it sits low on the horizon behind a leafless tree. To the left, a woman sits at the foot of a maple tree while maple sap drips from a wooden spout into a basket below. Two more birchbark baskets are at the ready. The use of bold lines, and the insertion of vivid color within black areas as if to reveal what lies within, is a signature design element in woodland art.
