I love this candid photo my husband snapped of me full moon gazing with my daughter last month’s full moon 🌕 Since having my baby I’ve often felt I’ve lost some of my connection to magic. Pre baby I had so much time and energy to devote to astrology, tarot, earth rituals, and planetary alignments. In the blur of early motherhood it seems I’ve blinked and missed another moon cycle, haven’t had time to notice what each eclipse stirs up in me, have struggled to keep my bearings in the exhaustion of it all. These things I once had endless time for feel like a luxury now. But then I see this photo, of us in my ancestral home, the moon so bright the night sky violet, and I see Pearl pointing to the moon in her board books, noticing, her little mouth almost ready to form the word. I see her seeing the world, and I see her looking to me to help guide her, and suddenly that magic is more tangible than ever, and not so far away as the stars and planets way out there 🪐
Happy full moon! I hope you tap into your magic—even if it feels new, shaky, different, or unfamiliar. I promise the magic is in you—it never left and it never will ❤️🔥
