SPIRAL SONGS: RISING SPRING
As the sun spends more time in our skies and temperatures continue to warm, the smells of earth, moss, and mud fill the air. The sounds of birds and running waters return and new leaves and blossoms burst forth from branch and bud. This season is full of energetic flourishing and exploding growth, when the exuberance of the natural world can be exhilarating and motivating. It can also be a time of frustration and overwhelm.
How can we help ourselves meet life’s challenges with steadiness and clarity? This season reminds us to celebrate the life-giving earth and call in the tempering powers of empathy and patience as we navigate the swiftly changing seasons.
