Spring Awakening

After what seemed to be a very long grey winter spring is finally upon us. Dandelions and Bluebells opening, the greening of all the trees and new life all around us. Spring time is full of power and potential, a time to embrace new ideas, consider fresh projects and plant seeds both real and metaphorical. Allow the great tide and surge of spring life to carry you along on the crest of a creative wave, rise to the feeling that sunshine can bring, that anything is possible. Consider and explore new ideas as the sap rises with the sunshine in all of mother nature and all along your neural pathways.

Rainy days too have the ability to heal us, raindrops landing on dry earth and vegetation release calming organic compounds which can improve mood, calm and ground us. The earthy smell released after rain from the newly damp earth is called Petrichor has been proven to lighten moods. Rain also washes the air clean of dust and particles.

This weeks waning gibbous moon reminds us to release that which no longer serves us and to express gratitude for that which brings us joy. A meditation with selenite for purity and clear quartz for clarity can support release and promote introspection ready to step into this new and vibrant spring 2025.
