Week #26: June 23-29, 2025
food for thought from... YA novels?
Welcome to Week Twenty-six! It’s summer in the Northern Hemisphere, and while we will have plenty of time to bask in the sun, the days are getting shorter from here on out.
It’s odd, to think of this period of seemingly endless light as waning. To be so full, and so ripe, and to know that soon we will be in the fallow cold once again. How can that paradox be an invitation this week? An opportunity to relish in the present moment, bolstered by the knowledge of nine, this too shall pass?
After all, we are halfway through our 9 collective year, where every single daily, weekly, and monthly number is amplified. Due to the fact that 9 can essentially be canceled out in any reduction calculation it appears in (truly, try some out, i.e. 1+9 = 10, 1+0 = 1), every core number this year becomes more of itself. Magnified, and polarized. Embodying both sides of the coin at the same time.
Meaning for this week…
