Soft, Earthen Futures

In this episode, we dive deep into the upcoming Full Moon Eclipse in Pisces, occurring in Gate 63—the Gate of Doubt. But this isn't about doubt as we typically understand it. This gate is calling into question everything we think we know and inviting us to break into new awareness and consciousness.

In our culture, we worship clarity and certainty. We rush to fix doubt, get coaching, find answers. But what if doubt is actually medicine? What if our obsession with knowing is keeping us from truth itself?

This eclipse is actively obscuring what we think we can see clearly, creating fog around our certainty, spiritual concepts, and future plans. And that's exactly what's supposed to happen. Sometimes our knowing needs to be deconstructed so we can find our way back to source—what Clarissa Pinkola Estés calls "the río abajo río," the river beneath the river.

We'll explore how relationship serves as the mirror showing us what we don't know about ourselves and others, why this eclipse is asking us to evolve our understanding of love, intimacy, boundaries, and connection, and how to work with doubt as a pathway to deeper truth rather than paralysis.

If you're deconstructing your relationship with spirituality, social media, politics, or community—if you're feeling the "spiritual ick"—this episode is for you. You're not falling apart; you're waking up.
