'Ole Moon Guidance - When the World Gets Noisy, Let Mahina Guide You

As we move through the lunar month of ʻIkuwā (Sept 22 – Oct 21), we can expect a fiery current — emotionally raw, sometimes stormy, and charged with truth-telling. Many of us are witnessing tension and chaos in the collective world, and it ripples into our personal lives.

This is a month where we may feel the push to move quickly, but the wiser call is to breathe, observe, and steady ourselves.

ʻIkuwā amplifies energy. Truths surface. The world gets noisy.
Act with clarity, not reaction.

ʻOle Moons (Sept 28 – Oct 1)

These four days arrive like a pause in the storm — a natural reset woven into the cycle. ʻOle moons are not a time to force growth or big moves. Instead, they invite us to trust the emptiness, to let things rest in the dark soil before new shoots can break through.

Think of ʻOle as a hammock strung between two trees: it holds you so you don’t have to hold yourself.

✅ What to Do

Lighten your schedule and allow your body to be unproductive.

Sweep or cleanse your living space — start small and clear what feels heavy.

Take a salt bath or float in the ocean to release tension.

Practice quiet kilo: watch clouds and notice how they shift over these days.

❌ What to Avoid

Forcing projects that aren’t flowing.

Over-scheduling or making major commitments.

Reacting impulsively to outer noise and conflict.

📝 Reflection & Journaling Prompts

Where am I pushing against the natural flow?

How do current events in my external world affect my inner world?

What keeps me rooted and grounded no matter what shifts around me?

Closing Thought

ʻOle moons remind us that rest is part of growth. When we pause, we give our spirit, body, and mind the chance to align with nature’s rhythm. Trust this lull — it’s not emptiness, but preparation.
