Imbolc blessings one and all. Can you feel the earth stirring? The darkest days are behind us and we can now see in the landscape the first signs of spring on the horizon.
An abundance of snowdrops and hellebores. The first shoots of wild garlic and nettle begin to appear. Sheep have been set out to pasture and will soon be lambing.
All this hope and growth rising but we are still in winter, the days remain cold and the skies often grey. So continue to huddle up in the warm, utilise your candles and twinkly lights to encourage a warm glow and make sure you are wrapping up warm and getting outside daily to soak up some daylight and fresh air and allow yourself to notice the signs of life and hope all around us.
Continue looking for the glimmers amidst the continued shedding! It may be feeling heavy and intense but we’re almost there; just 15 more days till we enter the fierce and powerful forward movement of the year of the fire horse.
So these are my highlights this week. This is my gratitude, my fire, my hope each and every day, the love that surrounds me through nature connection, friends and family and trust and faith in the magic and goodness of life ✨
My week has been blessed with the kindness of dear friends, witnessing the joy that Warhammer and Chelsea bring my best boy . . . coffee, plants, curries and understanding with special friends, blinking amazing bugs with my best girl, the wonder of a murder of crows, Walkfit silent disco, oodles of training, goat love, chicken joy, making friends with local sheep, fresh flowers, candle magic and a hundred moments of peace amidst life’s challenges.
Life is rich because of my tribe. Grateful for all the special people in my life, they should know who they are because I make a habit of being that cringe person who lets people know what they mean to me - because why wouldn’t you?! Be the light, be the kind word, let people know you care 💗✨
