Hope after burnout doesn’t feel like hope.
It feels like obligation: one more performance of okayness you don’t have the energy for.

Perimenopause asks the same question The Moon asks: what if you can't optimize your way through this?
Your body is dismantling one version of itself to make room for another. You just happen to be awake for it.
On rewilding and uncertainty.

The hot flashes, the brain fog, the emotional swings—these aren't malfunctions. They're your body dismantling itself to rebuild.
The Moon × perimenopause: on living in the uncertainty when your body speaks a language you don't understand yet.

There's a particular way you start holding yourself when pain becomes constant: in your jaw, your shoulders, your breath. A tightness that started as protection and became your posture.

Nobody tells you how much of your life you end up saving for later with chronic pain. You can't go to the thing because you need energy for the other thing.
The Four of Pentacles isn't just about control, it's about the grief of rationing your life.

The Moon shows a domesticated dog and a wild wolf, both howling at the same light.
This is perimenopause: you contain both the version of yourself that's learned to function, and the version that's done being managed.
On the rewilding nobody mentions.

The Moon card appears during perimenopause: when your body is in twilight, no longer what it was, not yet what it's becoming.
On hot flashes that aren't gentle ceremonies, brain fog that isn't mystical, and what it means to trust a body in transition.
