🌑 11:11, Under the Strawberry Moon

I published this site today, 30 June 2026, at 11:11.

I didn't choose the time. My wife did. Tonight is the Strawberry Moon, and the alignments that follow it pointed to this hour. I didn't argue — because when a beginning happens often matters as much as what begins. And if someone I love marks a moment for me, I trust her with it.

The site isn't finished. I don't think it needs to be. I've been working on a corner, a page, a heading of it for years; some parts are in place, some are scaffolding, some are still just intent. For a long time I thought I'd wait until it was done. Then I realized: being done isn't a goal, it's an excuse. The longer I waited, the harder going live became — and the longer I stayed offline, the less real the writing, the trying, the sharing felt.

So today, at this hour, I'm opening it as it is. Presentable — but not complete. I don't expect it ever to be. I want this to be a living place; edited, added to, sometimes deleted from. Not a magazine. A workshop.

Thank you to my wife — for marking the hour, and for carrying all these half-things with me for years.

If you're reading this and something looks broken: it probably is. It'll get better, slowly. That's the story of this place.

I’ve adopted the “Strawberry Moon” image featured in this post as a visual symbol for my website. It now represents the site not only within the content itself, but also in the favicon and in small preview images used across social platforms like WhatsApp.

In the next stage, I also plan to adjust the site’s color palette to match this theme. This will help create a more cohesive digital identity, where not just the visuals, but the overall atmosphere feels more unified and consistent.
