There is so much to share about this journey. These photos are from the oldest verified petroglyph in the world near Turraburra. You can see the handprints and the holes and stars telling the Seven Sisters story. We were given permission from the YACHATDAC Aboriginal Corporation to share these photos.

Megan Ricciardi grew up in California where she earned a degree in Anthropology and East Asian Religion. After graduating she began traveling and spent many nights camping out under the stars where the idea for her children's book, Moon Dream, came into her head. Years later she settled into an ecovillage in Australia where she met Anna, Ceel, and Michael who helped bring the book to life. She currently teaches people, mostly women and children, how to build dome homes, empowering them to become self-sufficient. Here are links to the book and domes if you want to include them, but not necessary. https://beyondbeinghuman.org/moon-dream-book https://www.artofdomes.com
