IT PULLED THE OCEAN THREE FEET HIGHER. And it is doing something to you right now, too.
Not in a way anyone warned you about. Not in a way science has fully measured. But something shifts as the Moon swells toward fullness, and you have likely felt it without having a name for it.
Here is what we do know. The Moonβs gravitational pull shapes the tides of every ocean on Earth, bending billions of tons of water toward it as it passes overhead. Tonight, the Moon is 88% illuminated, just 4 nights from its full Hunterβs Moon on October 26th. It is almost there. And many ancient traditions held that the water in our bodies rides those same rhythms that move the sea.
Researchers have found that in the days just before a full Moon, many people report lighter sleep, a low hum of restlessness they cannot place, emotions sitting just beneath the surface, closer to the skin than usual. Ancient traditions across cultures built entire calendars around this feeling. They did not call it a coincidence. They called it a signal.
This close to fullness, something in you is being drawn outward. Old feelings. Unfinished thoughts. The thing you have been quietly carrying for weeks. The Moon does not create these things. It reveals them, the way a rising tide reveals what the sand has been holding all along.
That particular sensitivity you have been noticing these past few evenings, the one that makes you want to sit by a window or stay up later than you should, that is not restlessness. That is the tide in you, answering something enormous and old and beautifully reliable.
Four nights from now, it reaches its fullest light. Until then, it asks nothing of you except to notice.
Have you felt it this week, that quiet pull toward something you havenβt put into words yet?
