Spring does not arrive all at once... it breathes itself into being. The energy of this seasonal threshold feels like awakening after a long inward journey. The stillness and introspection of winter begin to loosen their grip, and something subtle yet undeniable starts stirring beneath the surface. Where winter asked for rest, reflection, and conservation, early spring invites movement, curiosity, and the first quiet courage to begin again.
The transition from the Snow Moon into the Worm Moon mirrors this shift perfectly. The Snow Moon holds the final teachings of winter: endurance, patience, and the sacred pause. It is the moon of deep quiet, when life appears frozen yet is secretly gathering strength below the surface. Emotionally and spiritually, it asks us to sit with what is unfinished — to listen inwardly, to conserve energy, and to trust unseen growth.
As the cycle turns toward the Worm Moon, the earth itself begins to soften. The name comes from the reappearance of earthworms as the soil thaws, a humble but powerful symbol of life returning. The poor worm is just seen as this gross and slimey thing but yet he holds such strong medicine. This moon carries the energy of emergence. What has been incubating in darkness begins to move toward light. Ideas, desires, healing, and identity shifts that formed during winter start seeking expression, and start the process of coming to life. There is often a feeling of restlessness mixed with hope — a sense that something new wants to live through us, even if we cannot fully name it yet. It is the beginning of creation!
Together, these moons tell a story of transition... well all moons and season do really... but from preservation to participation, from inner gestation to outward becoming. Spring energy is not a sudden bloom but a gradual remembering. We move from survival into renewal, from stillness into gentle motion. It is a season that asks for tenderness with ourselves... to stretch slowly toward the sun, to feel the warmth returning to the Earth, to trust imperfect beginnings, and to honor that transformation happens first beneath the soil before it is ever seen above ground.
Spring arrives as an invitation... to thaw, to breathe deeper, and to step forward carrying the wisdom winter quietly placed within us. As the snow slowly melts, allow it to wash away what no longer serves you to make room for spring and new growth.
Join us at Red Tent as we explore how this all feels within our own bodies on March 3rd!
Much love...
