Imbolc; the turning point of winter where the light & energy will begin growing stronger. Many of us have slowed way down, in these short days & the icy, snow storms. Then the heaviness of violence all over the world, against our neighbors- it’s easy to shut all the way down becoming numb. We must stay with our feelings, in our empathy, our compassion, our rage.
Manifesting hope & gifts in the shadows of this transition period.
Mimosa flowers, leaves & bark harvested in the peak of summer- contained in a tincture, is not only for when we are feeling blue but when we need that boost for getting us through the stagnation of winter- the preserved summer sun brings light to our grief & power back to our aura- protecting us from numbing out & becoming governable.
Dark is lack of light. Separation is lack of love.Lighting candles & utilizing the summer medicine to usher in the sun.
