October has a way of reminding us what it means to be in-between. It’s not summer anymore, but winter hasn’t fully arrived. The season is unsettled and shifting, and so are we. If you’ve been feeling restless, uncertain, or caught in a transition you can’t quite name, you’re not alone. The in-between isn’t wasted time. It’s where your next chapter begins to take shape.

Every year, I choose a word that guides me through the months ahead, offering clarity and direction. Last year, it was gusto, pushing me to step out of my comfort zone. This year, the word I've chosen is nourish. It's a gentle reminder to listen to what my mind, body, and soul need, making space for what truly aligns with my values. Whether you're reflecting on your own word for the year or seeking guidance, I share how I tune into my intuition to choose a word that will anchor me throughout the year.

The new moon symbolizes new beginnings, fresh starts, renewal and reflection. The new moon provides an opportunity to connect deeper with our own intuition. A time to reflect and align ourselves with our soul’s purpose.

Do you ever feel like your emotions are out of control during a full moon? Your pets and children act differently whenever there is a full moon? One reason is, the full moon intensifies emotions and mental processing. Whatever is happening in your mind, body and spirit will be amplified. If you are feeling sad, you will feel sadder or if you are feeling happy, you will feel happier.
