There was a time when when we all lived in tune with the seasons. There was no beginning or end, just an ongoing cycle where one season blended into the next, each preparing us for the next stage.
From Yule/Winter Solstice (December 21) to Imbolc (February 2) is the time of the returning light. We have passed the longest night and light is returning. In the old traditions, animals that have bedded down during the dark months will be giving birth in time for the new growth of grass (this new grass is needed to produce milk for the babies).
This is a time of preparation. The dreams you dreamed during the dark season are ready to be manifested. Did you dream of having a garden this year? Now is the time for preparing the garden bed and choosing seeds, maybe even starting indoor germination. Did you dream of learning a new skill or language? Now is the time to seek out a teacher and the tools you will need to learn.
When you uncovered your “darkness” last season, you likely discovered what you needed to bring you out of that dark space… breaking old habits, setting boundaries, honoring your needs and gifts. Explore what it will take to set these new directions and start moving toward them. This isn’t the time to jump in and rush headstrong into a haphazard plan. It’s a time of realization, a time to discover your motivation for making the changes and let that motivation brew within you until it has nowhere else to go except out where you will take action on it.
Living with the seasons is also living intuitively. It’s following the inner voices and the outer shifts, looking and listening for signs that point us in the right direction.
