The Story Behind Moon Tide Magic Journals and How They Came to Life

Back in early 2025, I was driving up a hill in Pacifica — one of those places where I always seem to get sudden intuitive “downloads” of ideas.

Out of nowhere, this thought dropped into my mind:

Create the journals you wish already existed.

At the time, I had all these different thoughts, experiences, dreams, synchronicities, and ideas floating around with nowhere that felt right to put them. I’d buy random journals, use them for a few weeks, abandon them, then repeat the cycle.

I wanted something different. Something cohesive. Something beautiful enough to actually keep reaching for. A collection that felt intentional. Like a set of books I’d proudly keep on my shelf.

The very first journal I created was called Contact, originally made just for me to document the strange paranormal-type experiences and sightings I started having back in December 2024. (Including one night involving a bright orb over the Pacific ocean and a Black Hawk military helicopter racing toward it… but that’s a story for another time.)

And then something unexpected happened.

I couldn’t stop creating.

At night, I’d lay down to go to sleep and suddenly feel this intense pulsing energy move through my body. It felt physical, like an actual urge to make something. I’d get up, open my laptop, and start designing.

One journal became two. Then five. Then twelve.

Some nights I’d stay up until 2 or 3 in the morning completely immersed in the process, chasing one idea after another. It didn’t feel forced. It felt like something moving through me.

The strangest part?

I started creating journals for experiences I wasn’t even having yet, but felt deeply drawn to make anyway.

Fast forward nearly a year later, and I found myself going through entirely new chapters of life… already having a journal sitting there waiting for me.

It honestly felt like my subconscious knew before my conscious mind did.

At first, I kept most of it to myself. I was scared people would think the journals were weird. Too spiritual. Too niche. Too “out there.”

But after showing them to friends and hearing their encouragement over and over again, something finally shifted.

On November 10, 2025, I had another unmistakable download:

Stop hiding these. Put them out into the world... tomorrow. 11/11.

So I stayed up late building the Instagram account, uploading products onto Etsy, writing descriptions, and trying to figure everything out as I went.

At exactly 2am — the moment I finished everything I needed in order to launch — I saw a notification on X that an X5.1 solar flare, the largest of 2025, had peaked at that exact same time the early morning of November 11th.

That same night, auroras from the geomagnetic storm lit up skies across places they normally never appear.

Whether you’re into synchronicities, manifestation, space weather, energy, or none of it at all… the timing felt surreal.

But after months of overthinking, hiding, second-guessing myself, and wondering what people would think, the moment felt incredibly meaningful, like I had finally stopped resisting something I was meant to create.

But more than anything, finally sharing my Moon Tide Magic journals felt like relief.

Around that same time, I saw a quote online that said something along the lines of:

“Your work isn’t for everyone. You aren’t for everyone. And that’s okay.”

And honestly? That changed something in me.

Because manifestation, at least the way I’ve experienced it, isn’t just about “getting” things. It’s about becoming more fully yourself.

It’s about trusting the nudges. Following curiosity. Creating before you feel ready. Allowing yourself to be seen. And realizing that the things calling to you might already be trying to find their way through you.

What started as a few journals has now turned into something so much bigger than I ever expected:

• community

• polar plunges

• deep conversations

• creative expression

• new friendships

• workshops on the horizon

• and a growing reminder that there really is something magical about following what lights you up.

And somehow… I feel like this is still only the beginning.

With love from Pacifica,
