The Gifts of Winter

Dec 22

"Winter is the time when the earth takes a deep breath, readying itself for the rebirth of spring." -Unknown

HAPPY WINTER SOLSTICE!

Traditionally the beginning of winter has never been my favorite as this summertime girl treasures warm weather and sunshine ☀️ but over the years I’ve learned to find the gifts of each season and there’s a very special stillness about the season we are entering.

Even though everything appears dead & frozen in the outside world, a new cycle is beginning; it’s a new year 🥂 which always feels hopeful to me. ✨You can sense there is magic brewing deep down in the dark.

The winter solstice can be symbolic of a new chapter in your life. It’s a new cycle of birth 🌷 > growth 🌱 > death in everything in nature.🍂

THESE SIMPLE QUESTIONS HAVE ME DREAMING…

What do you want to come to life for you this year?

What will you nurture & grow?

Maybe we don’t have the answers right now and that’s perfectly fine. Winter is a time for dreaming and turning inward. There’s so much hope & anticipation contained in the POSSIBILITY of what might be which gets me very excited!

How about you? What are you most excited about for this season? I’d love it if you’d share it with me in the comments.
