Today is one of those quietly cool moments happening on Earth - it's the equinox (21st March). Depending on where you are in the world, this day means two very different things. If you're in the Northern Hemisphere, welcome to the start of spring. 🌷 If you're in the Southern Hemisphere, hello autumn. 🍁 Same planet. Same day. Completely different vibes. 🌍 What makes today special is balance - day and night are almost exactly equal. It’s like the Earth is hitting a reset button, giving us this perfectly even moment before everything tips one way or the other. ☀️🌑 If it’s spring where you are, this is basically nature’s "new year". Everything starts waking up again - plants, animals, people who said they’d "get back into routines" a few months ago… you know who you are. Spring is all about: - fresh starts - new energy - growth (even if it’s a little messy at first) It’s that reminder that things can begin again, no matter how slow or stuck they felt before. If it’s autumn for you, the energy shifts in a different, but equally meaningful, way. This is the season of: - slowing down - letting go - taking stock of what’s working… and what isn’t Autumn is like nature saying, "You don’t have to carry everything forward." Leaves fall, not because the tree failed - but because it’s preparing for what’s next. So wherever you are today, whether you’re stepping into something new or gently closing a chapter, this is a good moment to pause for a second. ⏸️ Take a breath. Notice where you are. And maybe ask yourself: "What feels like it’s beginning?" or "What feels like it’s ready to be released?" Either way, today is about change, balance, and moving forward - just in different directions. Happy equinox! 🌱🍂

The family received a group text from my son who was headed to the gym. He drives a Tesla (seems everyone in my local area does - that’s when you know you’re back in the DC metro area after traveling! Hahaha) Anyhoo… we send group texts to each other with sunrises and random funnies. This one though… Alex dreamt about his best friend from high school who transitioned many moons ago. Gage helped my son out during his middle school years. Best buds. Beautiful heart. The two of them were strong together and it made some difficulties easier during that time. Later on we moved back to DC due to several reasons. Both boys became men. Gage had a son (who looks just like him!!!), but also fell prey to the drugs of that area. After getting clean a few times, he fell back into it one last time and transitioned. Flash forward to today - maybe 10 years after his passing, my son had dreams about him and gets a little hello from this cardinal on his tinted Tesla window. Left brain says yes - he sees the reflection and is like “what’s up?!” thinking it’s another cardinal. But right brain may notice the joy in the heart and the connection of this hello. I feel the joy simply by seeing this and remembering Gage. Have you had any recent animal hellos? How about recent hellos from a loved one that has passed away and comes to you in other ways to say hello? Our loved ones are never far away friends… ❤️
