The weather is reflecting winter but the energy of spring is birthing. The birds are singing more frequently and the bark’s colors are returning to life.
The heaviness of winter has become a blanket to rest and be cozy in but it’s not handling me down when it’s time to move about.
Nettles are amazing. I have associated them with fire before. Maybe me think of the way they sting when they are alive. It also reminded me that there are some that get stung more often than others. My spiritual teacher would break out in hive just transporting the tray to me. I work with them a lot and would just stung until I was aggressively trying to be. I stoped growing them though because they’re poisonous to cats and dogs and we have pets and strays that play in our gardens.
Ah yes the bird song is such a tonic isn’t it? I read somewhere that it was good for your mental health to hear birds sing, it certainly feels that way after a long winter 🪶
I Wouldn’t be surprised if there was a study about listening to birds sing, and how it affects your mental health. I know that for me hearing the birds it’s such a refreshing break to the silence that surrounds. There’s so much hope in their song.
I am also craving greenness, doing my best to stay appreciative of winter offers. Thanks for sharing Kayleigh!
Thanks Mary. It’s so important to try to honour each season in turn but oh the greenness! Ready for it now! 💚🙏🏻
