Greetings from Creative Cronies

Arafelle, Jade and Minerva

After 35 years of production and in these times of radical change, Creative Cronies are looking for women interested in becoming involved and eventually taking over some or all of what we do. Since we are based near Kaitaia, we would like to find women in Northland or Auckland. We are looking for writers with a passion for astrology, desktop publishing skills, and experience with programs such as InDesign and Photoshop.

The Moon Calendar has a herstory of 46 years and was founded in 1978 by Gretchen Lawlor.   In 1990, Robyn, Arafelle and Minerva were handed the helm.  We formed Creative Cronies and produced our first Moon Calendar, the 1991 edition.  Two years later, we published our first Astrological Moon Diary. Since Robyn retired in 2020, Arafelle’s daughter Jade has efficiently taken up much of her mahi and is now our current sales and distribution manager.   

Our heartfelt thanks go to Cypress Vivieare-Davis for many years of cover designs, to Raine and Shona for their dedicated proofreading, to Merryn for her invaluable help in setting up 2025, and to Sand Hall for her significant writing contributions to the 2025 Moon map interpretations.

Creative Cronies appreciates and acknowledges the support of all our long-standing and new customers.
