Is it the pull of the moon that’s got us out of sort? The round being in the dark that waxes and wanes through the month and pulls the tides like covers over the bed of mud. It would make sense that we too feel this pull and it takes our emotions on a roller coaster. That our energy is high and low, translucent and agile and murky and slow like the waves and the ocean floor. The contrast between the two and the crashing on the shore. It would make sense that the moon be held responsible for the weight of the world crashing on our shoulders.
Is it the grey, the ever holding cloud cover that’s been lingering longer than it’s welcome. The cool breezes blowing away the long awaited warmth that comes with the blooming green. The green that glows like neon when the sun is finally high in the sky. The hug that consumes us when you’re travelling outside by foot or by car and the green and the blooms are just all around.
I’m not sure what the mess is made of but the fog feels thick and the tired is deep within my marrow in a way that I can’t completely explain. It is all just lingering. Not letting in the letting go and the moving on. The sun and the rain are in a steady two step between shine and pour and the journey they’ve taken us on over the last month is really itching the souls of those who need the sun for that soul sipping vitamin d and reassurance that even rainy seasons come to end. But when there is no end to the rain, how can you be sure that the end eventually comes?
The little bits of chaos are cocooning around me. I’m in need of finding a flow that rolls along the rocky bits in smooth sweet reassurance instead flailing like a salmon upstream by some inherit rhythm that must happen.
I know this morning was another show that this isn’t working. I need to find space for me in the me too. Instead of the too busy, too loud, too crazy, too disorganized, too, too, too. But little me. Scrambling for breakfast, flipping for patience, brewing a mess of unorganized chaos. That’s not working. So, is it the moon? That’s got my mind all hashed up and cracked. Or is it my soul that needs to be soothed in a way I’ve not yet found. The me, I matter. Whether it be the moon or the grey, grasping at straws is not adding to the editing of the rocks.
We’re mostly water, we come from it, we grow with it, we search for it. It seeps from us in times of heat, and times of sorrow. We’re water and dust. Dust and drops of the ocean. It would only make sense that moon would too pull us along like a curtain in the stage play. Directing us this way and that. Folding our energy as we unravel the riptide.
Yes, it must be the moon, and the cocktail of the grey numbing us in the moment and than leaving us raw to feel the magnetic synergy they together create.
