Winter the season of Water

Winter… the realm of the Water element  

Plunge into the stillness and the quietude to fully access the depths of restoration and replenishment that is on offer in this season. Leaning in and resting into it, trusting in the silence. To become quiet, still and receptive enough to listen and deeply hear for the subtle ripples that are going on deep below the surface. 

Just like the seeds gestating in the cold, dark depths of the soil… storing and preserving all the vital energy to allow whatever is innately destined to be fully sprouted, when the time comes… to have its best possible chance to come through, to grow and to thrive. 

To allow this process to occur… to not hurry, but to slow to the pace that winter calls out for us to embrace. To slow to tie all of the loose thoughts, ideas, dreams and learnings from the year. To reflect and to make meaning of them, a meaning that is uniquely yours. This is when we can tap back into the wisdom that not only flows through everything around us but to the source of it within us too.
