We gathered on a Friday not to escape, but to arrive. To let the churning settle. To name what we were carrying—exhaustion, anger, disorientation, hope—and in the naming, find we were not alone.

This is the third Gentle Fridays gathering, recorded in February 2026 as the Saturn-Neptune conjunction reached its exact degree. I read from David Whyte’s Consolations on anger—not as surface violence but as the deepest form of care, the unwillingness to let what we love be diminished. I pulled a card from the Plant Speak deck, and the orchid arrived: that rootless bloom that receives everything it needs from light and air. A reminder that we too can receive from unseen channels, that we are here to funnel goodness back into the earth.

And then Mary Oliver closed us, as she always seems to, with the news that someone lingers, little by little becomes everything that makes the difference.

If you are feeling the weight of this season—the exhaustion, the wanting to scream and shake things, the strange grief of watching old systems dissolve—this hour is for you. Not to fix. Just to hold, together.

Find what you need to release. Find what you need to carry forward. Find the thread from my heart to yours.
