The ouroboros—an ancient symbol of a serpent eating its own tail—reminds us that endings and beginnings are part of the same cycle.

​

Issue 5 lives in the moment between them. The pause before something becomes new. The uncertainty of letting go, and the choice to move forward anyway.

 

This issue explores transformation in all its forms: shedding old selves, rebuilding after rupture, and imagining what comes next. New beginnings can be hopeful, but they can also be frightening. What truths do we uncover when we change—and what happens if fear holds us back?

​

Welcome to Issue 5.
