Full Moon - Sept 20, 2021

Sep 19

How you doin’? In my neck of the woods, we survived a summer of a crazy heatwave and crazy forest fires. Happy for the temperature and season change. Keep it comin’ Mother Nature.

I sometimes feel like going by the Gregorian calendar is messing with my flow. Wouldn’t it be nice if I could plan things by the lunar cycle? Like realizing oh — maybe moving would be more ideal for the full moon? Or maybe, planning the big chunks for the full moon, or maybe thinking about being mindful of energy and not overdo it.

So I sat last night, with my sleeping baby stretched out. I laid beside him wondering: what it was this full moon felt like to me. And I had a vision of the full moon lasting as the full moonlight shone for days. I thought about The Harvest Moon and how it falls during the Autumnal Equinox. Then it clicked. The energy of this full moon was the last push for nature to say get it in while you can, everything is flowing at max power, ride it as far as it’ll take you.

We’re days from moving, Whit has done an immensely amazing job at packing up the whole house, lining up help, coordinating all the things. So we ride this wave and hopefully plant our roots down for one last time. I hope that this is the last move we have to make for at least the next 20 years.

Much love,
