The waxing moon is a phase of growth, momentum, and becoming—but for many of us, building energy can feel overwhelming, especially if our nervous systems are already stretched thin.

In this episode, we explore what the waxing moon actually represents and how to work with this rising energy in a way that is gentle, embodied, and sustainable. Rather than pushing or forcing forward movement, this conversation invites you to attune to nature’s pace and your own inner rhythms.

Using the symbolism of trees and the element of wood, we reflect on how growth happens slowly and steadily—rooting down even as we reach upward. We also explore themes of protection, boundaries, and how ideas, desires, and intentions begin to take physical form during this phase of the lunar cycle.

Whether you’re feeling momentum building or noticing subtle shifts beneath the surface, this episode offers grounded reflections and practical guidance to help you move forward without overriding your body.

In this episode, we explore:

🌳 The symbolism of trees, the element of wood, and slow, resilient progress

🌳 How protection and boundaries can support expansion rather than block it

🌳 A reflective tool for understanding where the moon is landing in your own chart

Our intro and outro song, Reclamation (Reborn), is an anthem of remembering.

This song was created as a companion for the healing journey, especially for women reclaiming their voices, their rhythms, and their belonging in a world shaped by patriarchy.

You’re invited to listen, feel, and let the music meet you wherever you are.
