Welcome to HONU MOTU — The Month of the Quantum Navigator!
A Moment of Pause
I want to acknowledge that I didn’t send a newsletter last month, as I found myself questioning whether to continue writing. I was immersed in a dance with truth and the revelations of death — dancing with the black panther, navigating profound shifts, personal growth, and collective grief. During this time, I embraced the wisdom of 200 brown pelicans, finding guidance in stillness and surrender.
The black panther led my dance last year in February as well. Read it here:
March invites us to embrace transformation with courage, trusting that true growth often requires stepping beyond the familiar, just as the Honu swims against the current.
My Journey in Magdalena Bay: Tender Against the Grain
This theme of tenderness against the grain resonates deeply with my recent experience in Magdalena Bay, Mexico. Rising early each morning to greet the ocean, I encountered tortugas, pacific white-sided dolphins, blue and gray whales, seals, and thousands of birds. The rhythm of the sea mirrored my own journey toward clarity and remembrance.
I went to Magdalena Bay to honor and bless the gray whale mothers and their calves, offering prayers for their protection as they embark on one of the longest migrations in the animal kingdom. I felt deeply connected to the sacredness of their journey, as they give birth and nurture their young. The gray whales, the largest migratory whales, embody the powerful cycles of birth, life, and transformation.
During my time there, one of our expedition guides captured this photo of me and shared a powerful insight: “Here, in the internal silence, like in the sea, there is purity, freedom, and love.” This insight felt especially tender, like the soft, deep currents of the sea — resonating with March’s invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with the purity of our inner worlds.
Honoring Our Path
This month, we’re called to honor our unique paths, even when they go against the grain. By slowing down, reflecting, and dreaming freely, we align with our deepest truths and transform. Just as I found clarity in the ocean’s silent expanse, we’re invited to turn inward, dive deep, and embrace the freedom found in stillness.
Happy Un Ra Maki!
May the powerful light medicine of the Killer Whale — in its sacred alignment with harmony — guide you as you embrace this time of reflection, dreaming, and reimagining. Trust that aligning with your true desires will attract the support you need. May this month provide space to dream deeply, move freely, and trust that stillness will guide you toward purity and freedom.
All my love,
