Dear Friends, We are now in the first month of Spring. I’m sitting looking out over the garden and the sun is shining. The light is stronger and birds are singing. With the sun tracking slightly higher across the sky I notice the sun is picking up the lighter greens of the new buds and fresh growth peeking through the slightly dull winter foliage.
Personally, I feel more energy after the nurture of winter time and beginning to start the projects that I’ve saved for the longer, warmer days. Now as the new growth arises, we can also begin planning projects and start the ball rolling.
This is the Yang Wood month and relates to the Gallbladder, a time for new grow, blossoming ideas and plans for the coming months. Like new growth try to be flexible and pliable. Don’t grow too fast as there may be a late frost. Try drawing up plans for the months ahead and what you want to achieve. On the flip side it is also good think about boundaries and how much time to offer the tasks that can become frustrating and overwhelming. When to say "Yes." and when to say "No!"
Take a little time every day to sit with nature and the ever-changing landscape. Reflect on your own internal landscape and its ever-changing qualities.
My very best wishes
Sara
