We humans spend much of life keeping uncertainty at bay through habits, biases, and identities that steady us. Yet, uncertainty is not just a threat, it’s also an opening. The brain’s prediction errors make us vigilant, but they also prime us for learning. By cultivating identity complexity, humility, and curiosity, we transform uncertainty from something to fear into an invitation to grow, connect, and imagine new possibilities.

Invisible Illness Is Still Illness

Conditions like Long COVID, ME/CFS, and autoimmune diseases may not show on the outside—but they’re real, exhausting, and often isolating.

You don’t need to have all the answers. Just believe, listen, and lead with empathy.

It makes more difference than you know.

Change is one of life’s only constants, and often one of its most disorienting. Whether we choose it or it chooses us, change throws us into a vulnerable space between identities, a raw and uncertain in-between. In this piece, we explore the human tendency to reach for spiritual bypassing—using spiritual language or practices to avoid discomfort and contrast it with the deeper, steadier work of real mindfulness. True healing doesn’t come from escaping the storm, but from walking through it with eyes open and heart intact. This is a call back to honest presence, embodied awareness, and the quiet power of staying with what’s real.

Libra New Moon 10/21/25

This Libra New Moon calls us to balance revelation with responsibility. After eclipse season’s intensity, it’s time to pause, breathe, and seek truth with grace. Real wisdom isn’t imagined; it’s lived. It asks us to see clearly, act with integrity, and hold tension without denial. In endings and beginnings alike, this lunation invites accountability, discernment, and the courage to live what we know.

Super Full Moon in Aries 10/6/25

Last month’s eclipses revealed hard truths—shocks that weren’t punishments but wake-up calls. The question is never just what was revealed, but what we’ll do with what we now know. In times of chaos, our craving for certainty becomes a liability, leaving us vulnerable to scapegoats and manipulation. This Aries Hunter’s Supermoon asks us to meet fire with courage, to use conflict as a forge for truth, and to stand together as one fierce, illuminating flame—burning not for destruction, but for light.

Virgo New Moon Solar Eclipse 9/21/25

The Virgo New Moon Solar Eclipse at 29° reminds us that transformation is never abstract; it is lived. Pisces dissolves the illusions; Virgo demands we act. This eclipse exposes what can no longer be ignored and calls us into a healing crisis: the reckoning before renewal. It asks not for perfection, but for humility, accountability, and courage. In the tension between faith and fact, surrender and discipline, we are invited to align word with deed, spirit with structure, and effort with grace.
