During a total eclipse, the temperature drops and you can feel it. Small shifts are real even when nobody announces them.
REFLECTION
WHAT THIS MEANS
Things can shift measurably without anybody naming them. The air genuinely cools during an eclipse and you feel it on your arms whether or not somebody announces the fact, and most changes in your own life work the same way. A friendship cools, a habit sets, an interest quietly dies, all of it real and none of it ever declared out loud.
If you have the sense that something has changed, treat that sense as data rather than drama. Write down what specifically is different now compared with a few months ago. You are allowed to act on a shift nobody has confirmed for you.
A QUESTION TO SIT WITH
What shift in a friendship did you feel before anyone said anything?
