Maybe it’s the career that used to fit. Or the mission that used to move you. Or maybe it’s the identity you spent twenty years building that now feels like a costume you’re still wearing out of habit.

You’re asking why nothing lights you up the way it used to.

Nothing’s wrong with you. You’ve simply outgrown the version of purpose that got you this far.

The hollowness isn’t absence. It’s the space the next thing needs in order to arrive.

Most people try to refill the old container. The work is letting it stay empty long enough to find out what’s actually trying to come through.

If you’re inside one of these and can’t make sense of it alone, you know where to find me.

The thing you didn’t see coming. The loss, the diagnosis, the collapse, the relationship that ended without warning. The life that suddenly stopped making sense.

You’re asking why.

But why is the wrong question. Or at least the wrong FIRST question.

The more useful one is why NOW. What was already true that this finally brought to the surface? What was already moving that this finally named? What was already ending that this finally confirmed?

Nothing happens to you in a vacuum. It happens at the precise moment your life is ready to be reorganized by it.

That’s a pattern. And patterns can be read.

If you’re inside one of these and can’t make sense of it alone, you know where to find me.

She means the animated version. The one where every creature in the forest gathers at her feet, all in on the same gentle agreement.

And I get it. Two ravens, three ducks, Jack the cat, the deer who wander through like they pay rent, raccoons, and a chipmunk we named Monk.

There’s a harmony here I don’t take for granted.

But let me tell you what Snow White doesn’t show you. The mornings. (The woodland creatures have NO concept of a lie-in.)

If you showed me two hands that couldn’t open or close, I wouldn’t tell you what it means.

I’d get curious with you.

Isn’t that interesting? Both hands. The grip and the release, both compromised at once. What’s it like to not be able to hold on — and not be able to let go — at the same time?

The moment you hand someone a fixed interpretation, you close the door on their own knowing. You replace their wisdom with your formula.

The real work isn’t “what does this mean?” It’s “what does this open up?”

Don’t decode. Listen. Don’t solve. Stay.

There isn’t. Not for the body, the soul, or for most of the things that actually matter.

You can’t look up “trigger finger” and find the definition. You can’t decode a cat scratch like it’s a secret message with one correct translation.

The body speaks in metaphor, not definitions. It is not a dictionary.

The meaning isn’t fixed. It’s yours to discover, slowly, in relationship with your own life.

Anyone who hands you a tidy formula is selling you something too small.

Last week I told you about the trigger finger in both hands. The right hand settled down. The left is still locked.

And then, because the universe apparently wanted a matched set, Jack (our cat) scratched my right hand while we were playing. Same as always. Except this time it got infected.

Swollen to twice its size, cancelled my client day, ended up in emergency. Now I’m on antibiotics.

So here I am. Both hands compromised. Neither able to fully close. Neither able to fully open. And I thought, if a client brought me this, what would I do with it?

Tonight’s Blue Moon is the second Full Moon of May. It’s expansive, truth-seeking, and ready to release.

It’s also asking questions.
What beliefs have you outgrown?
What are you ready to let go of?
What horizon is calling you forward?

When your perspective changes, you stop reacting from where you’ve been and start recognizing what’s actually calling you forward.

See if you can notice what you’ve been gripping. And maybe, just maybe, let it go.

Open your hands and see what happens. 🌕

Nope. You don’t. And holding on this tightly is its own kind of damage.

I know the grip can feel like safety. Like if you let go, something terrible might happen.

But look at what the gripping is costing you. Look at what locks up when you won’t release.

You can’t live clenched forever.

This week, the bravest thing you can do is open your hands.

Some people talk in their sleep. Some grind their teeth or snore. I clench my fists like I’m preparing for a fight I’m not even aware of.

Which means I now have trigger finger in both hands. And yes, my middle fingers. My unconscious has a sense of humour.

It got me thinking: how many of us are carrying tension we don’t know we’re holding? A brace against something that may or may not be coming. A grip so tight we’ve forgotten we’re even gripping.

We live in a culture that loves a clean narrative. Before and after. Old self, new self. Who you were versus who you are.

But that’s not how becoming actually works.

Becoming is accumulation. Layer after layer of experience, loss, love, and learning. And then one day, standing in the middle of all of it and owning it all.

This is me. Every chapter & every name.
