Make Space for What's Next
Aug 07, 2026Yesterday's Last Quarter Moon couldn't have come at a more fitting time.
The past few months have been full of endings and beginnings around here. Mario and I have spent countless hours painting, rearranging, clearing, building, and bringing new life into our home. It has been hard work, but some of the most meaningful work we've done together.
As many of you know, we've also made the decision to step away from long term foster care. (We'll absolutely continue helping through respite and emergency placements). That chapter has been one of the greatest gifts of our lives, and saying goodbye to it has created space we didn't know we needed.
Event though our home has not been this quiet in a long time, it also feels very alive.
The more we've cared for it, the more I've felt it responding. That may sound unusual to some, but I truly believe every home has a spirit. When we slow down enough, we can hear the communication.
A few days ago, one of our sprinkler heads started overflowing right along the front walkway. In Feng Shui, our front entrance represents the opportunities and energy entering our lives. I laughed when Mario found it; that's exactly how this season has felt. The ideas, the conversations, the invitations, the projects...they're flowing in fast!
One of those projects is Bohemian Marketing, something I've been quietly curating with Cyndi Dale for quite some time. As we move toward eclipse season later this month, I can't think of a better time to begin. Eclipses have a way of accelerating change. They reveal what has been waiting beneath the surface and often move us toward the next chapter faster than we would have chosen ourselves.
The last quarter moon reminds us that every beginning is supported by something we're willing to release. Every month the last quarter moon offers us a chance to loosen our grip on old expectations, habits, stories, and even dreams that no longer fit the person we're becoming.
This week's Moon moves through Gemini, making it a beautiful time to notice our thoughts and the words we repeat to ourselves every day. Those quiet moments shape the energy we carry far more than you realized.
May this weeks three card pull support you to truly let go.
Have a beautiful weekend.
Big love,
