We have exited the intense and otherworldly eclipse portal with this last full moon, and I'm barely able to gather my thoughts about what we have just experienced. It really feels like we have been walking between worlds. (August 12 was the solar eclipse August 27/28 was the lunar eclipse.)

Between the solar and lunar eclipses, many of us went incredibly deep. Old ancestral and current-life traumatic experiences resurfaced, demanding to be faced and healed. Our dreams grew more varied and intense, bringing up old relationships, family wounds, patterns, and everything that has opposed our energy, our value, our worth, and our identity. Things we thought we had already healed came back again. Things we thought we had already let go of showed us where we were still holding on. And perhaps that was the point. Let go.

But what truly draws my attention is what has begun to happen since the eclipse portal.

This time, we experience a strange sense of homesickness that many of us seem to be feeling again. But homesick for where? There are places on this planet where our souls feel at home . . . ancient places where we suddenly find peace and presence. Places where something inside us recognizes something we can't explain. We sense an expansive connectedness that seems to have been lost in the outer world. And then, returning to the world with all its complications, division, and separation, we realize that perhaps the home we are remembering is a sign that something is brewing and blooming within us.

We are remembering what we have never experienced. This is how it will feel when we step into the future. Right now, there's a feeling of being here, but also somewhere else at the same time. Walking between worlds. In the world, but not of it. Our five senses might even seem like they are trying to stretch beyond what we usually perceive. And they are. There can be moments when this other world feels incredibly close, almost as if we could just let go and slip through the veil. Strangely, it can feel familiar, like something we already know but have just remembered, while remaining anchored in the present.

Sadly, it has also been a time when many iconic souls have crossed over, many of whom I believe will be helping us from the other side of the bridge. Those still here may feel incredibly heavy, tired, and overwhelmed. There is a pressure right now that's hard to explain.

Maybe this pressure is stretching our souls' capacity to hold a much larger landscape that is coming for us. Our intense experiences show that we are moving further into the new frequencies. Perhaps that's why so much is surfacing now, old wounds, old relationships, old identities, ancestral patterns, ways we have diminished ourselves to fit into this world. Things we believed we had already healed. Things we thought we had already let go.

Perhaps we are being stretched because what is coming requires more space inside us than we have ever been able to hold before. It's hard work, but we've got this.

There's also a shift happening around ancient memory. Many of us have always been drawn back to ancient sites and power places because something there feels familiar to our hearts. We stand among stones that have lasted thousands of years or walk across ancient land, and something within us awakens. We don't always understand what it is. Sometimes, what we receive is only the cover of a very big book. Then we wait for the book to begin opening.

We unpack and step into new frequencies at the same rate as we let go of the old world.

Maybe ancient memory begins blooming within us when we finally make enough space for it.

This time feels strangely familiar to those of us who remember the energetic shifts around the Harmonic Convergence in the 1980s. Back then, there was a feeling that there was more, something we couldn't quite see yet. There was a tangible excitement in the air. Now, decades later, we are on a whole different plane of existence, and we are feeling that same strange, familiar sensation of cracking open. We stand on the edge of change and full awakening. We are on the brink of another epic shift. But this shift isn't loud; it feels quiet. Under the radar. Deep inside. Something is shifting beneath everything we see, know, and feel.

I sense more opportunities will come where we are asked to let go. Let go of what no longer fits. Let go of who we thought we had to be. Let go of old wounds. Let go of old identities. Let go of ways we have learned to survive in a world that has never truly felt like home. And stay grounded as something much larger begins to reveal itself.

I wonder if others are feeling this too. Are our dreams changing? Are old memories or relationships suddenly resurfacing? Do we feel unusually tired or heavy? Are we homesick for somewhere we can't quite name? Are ancient places calling us in different ways? Do we feel disconnected from the outer world while something inside us feels more alive?

I believe if we start sharing what we're experiencing and drop the spiritual performance, together we can piece together what's shifting right now. Because this time feels epic, yet deep and hidden beneath the surface. Beneath our growing pains, there is excitement and a deep trust that everything will work out, like babies safely cradled in the Great Mother's arms.

This is our hearts awakening, because the mind can no longer make sense of this reality. There is no other place to go but within.

And whatever this is, I appreciate everyone I've been able to share this journey with at this level. I honor you. I respect you. And I feel grateful that we are on this Earth together.
