Episode Summary

In this final episode of Between Years, Erica gently closes the circle we opened twelve days ago. What began as a pause has become a rhythm. What felt like an ending reveals itself as a quiet beginning.

This episode is an invitation to settle, integrate, and carry forward what has emerged during the days between years. With tea in hand, we reflect on what has softened, what has returned, and what now feels ready to walk with us into the year ahead.

Completion here is not about closure. It is about continuity.

In this episode:

* Closing the Between Years journey with presence and intention

* Working with Epiphany as a moment of illumination and return

* A gentle herbal tea ritual for restoration and balance

* How all five elements come into harmony at completion

* Personal reflections on ease, flow, and listening rather than forcing

* Noticing your final omen and what it reveals

* How to integrate this pause into everyday life

As your tea brews, reflect quietly: What have these twelve days revealed and what keeps returning?
