Spirit Moves in Signs: A Reflection on Listening Before the Shift

A close-up of a delicate spring bud emerging from a tree branch, surrounded by soft light and new green growth. A symbol of quiet beginnings and nature’s promise of transformation.

Before the breakthrough, there’s often a whisper. A loosening. A quiet sign that something is changing. We may be looking for thunder, but spirit often moves in softness—a single bud, a subtle release, a breath of clarity. In those sacred, in-between spaces, we are reminded: the shift begins before it’s visible. You are not stuck—you’re simply in the turning.
