supplies:

13 white beads (for the Maiden)
13 red beads (for the Mother)
13 black beads (for the Crone)
52 small silver spacer beads (to represent moonlight)
1 large silver bead (to represent the Full Moon)
beading thread or thin, clear fishing line

Instructions:

Take the large silver bead and thread it on. Then take 4 small silver spacer beads. Now thread on a white, followed by a single spacer bead, until all white beads are done, then add 4 silver spacer beads, then start on the red beads using a spacer bead in between, then followed by another 4 silver spacer beads, and then the black beads, using a spacer in between also. Once finishing the black beads, follow by 4 more silver spacer beads before connecting this end to the large silver moon bead.

Explanation:

The 13 beads in each set signify the 13 months of the lunar year. The silver spacers represent moonlight issuing from the Full Moon bead throughout the life cycle of the Maiden, Mother and Crone.

Prayers are said on each bead, while meditating on the mysteries of the Triple Goddess, and the experience of the human life cycle.
