The Holy Nights

3.1.24

Days that glide effortlessly into the dark and keep us close to the heart of home are our healing for what went before. It is not for us to run into the early days of a New Year and start a journey full of vigour when our hearts are weary with the need for rest and comfort. The dark nights are Holy. They are the chance to sit with whatever we have gathered as our thoughts and feelings and work through them in a deeply personal way. No one knows but you and God. We may resist it and indeed we do! There is an unease in the time of resting but not a time of idleness! This is where we sow our hopes and dreams! We stir in some excitement for what we have not yet seen bloom not unlike a Mother waiting on her beloved child. All of our hopes and dreams are in our hearts waiting to be born as Spring. She knows her journey and yet we resist her timing when she is a Master.

Small tasks however innocent are ones of great magnitude. The most seemingly minor ritual we perform in surrender to our knowing hearts will see them burst forth in blossoms touched by the icy hand of Mother as they appear over the coming weeks.

She teaches us so much. The art of Being in her cycle is the ancient art of creation and as we head into brighter days and witness her divine plan we realise timing is everything and Mother knows best!

Enjoy the winter and the warmth of being in her Heart.
