WINTER ❄️
I used to dread Winter, the cold dark gloomy days, made me feel unsafe. It was painful to think of winter, and I come from the Caribbean, I had the sunny days every day. It took me years to accept winter.
Well, guess what, turns out that I do LOVE winter🩵 ...
Wait, what?!
Yes, I do.
How can this be if I just said I dread it?
I had the same realization, years ago in my early 20's when I realized, I didn't hate period, in fact I loved it. My period helped me to understand how my cycles where connected to nature, Mamma Earth and I where connected. like a Mother to her child... The problem was and still is:
Our, Society! our world does NOT let me live my bleeding in peace. The fast paced world we leave in, didn't and does not let me live my monthly mini-winter in peace!. I had a mayor shift, an awakening after that.
The very same thing has happened to Winter, OUR WORLD, SOCIETY DOES NOT LET ME WINTER IN PEACE! I came to this realization walking in the woods, I don't dread Winter, I dread the this society that made us believe (I never agreed, but..) we need to be productive and active ALL year long, because of the economy and to have better lives 😐 and silly humans believed the Trap, and we have more stress, better lives? 🤔 I love that to your own thinking. Results: We cannot Winter / Menstruate in peace. Like the natural, organic, flow of life demands.
Yes, the joy of Winter has taken away from us. Tte same way they did to Women when they took -among other things- The POWER OF THE MENSTRUAL CYCLE, with this they took away our Magic and the importance to rest and be with ourselves during those important days.
I felt robbed once again!
What is Winter?
Winter is the season to "sleep", Mother Nature is quiet, asleep; it is the time to:
To go to the Darkness, which is simply,
To Go Inside Yourself.
To be in touch with your thoughts, feelings, emotions,
To retreat from "the world", the noise,
To rest,
To evaluate your year,
To repair,
Yo let be,
To be simply SLOW DOWN in order to regenerate for Spring time, for the Rebirth of the year and because we are part of the Earth it is also our rebirth
