This monthly post explores the beauty and medicine of the month we find ourselves in
Hello honey bears and welcome to January.
January brings with it cultural thoughts of new beginnings, detoxing, upward and outward momentum and pushing yourself through new things.
Sometimes, this can be great for some folk, but I just wanted to let those who feel unable to rouse themselves yet, those who feel all these intentions are going against their inner desires and bodily feelings, that yes, your probably right, they probably are going against your animal body……..here, where winter still reigns, it is still time to rest and be inward and be quite in the darkness of your being. It is still time to cosy on down, sleep, read, dream, plan and feel, for that is what will help you to grow outward well in the months to come.
But this time isnt dead time, all those seeds under the earth are not still, they are dreaming of their shape, gathering strength, listening to the stories held in the earth, and in the darkness of these days, they are forming what will be. They lie within all the earth let go of to decay and compost, they feed off the gifts from tree, plant and body, in the earths rest fullness, they are tended to.
