Spring Equinox, the cusp of even more light.

No matter how dark it is—the war in Ukraine, the fight for democracy in the US, the pandemic that never ends, the climate catastrophe… the living earth reminds us that there is always this:

And this:

And this:

The living earth reminds us again and again and again how to come back to life after the dark, how to send up new shoots and leaves, how to green, how to flower, how to take in and breathe out life.

Drink in the beauty, the fresh growth, the continuing

outpouring and wonder of the living earth!

If you’d like some practice inspiration, here are some ideas from past posts:

• An invitation to begin again.
• A ritual for cracking open and nourishing the seeds that want to burst into life.
• A ritual to stay awake and release what is no longer needed into the earth.
• A practice of smiling into Spring.
• A ritual to nourish your dreams for your life.
• A ritual to breathe into life-affirming vision.
• A ritual to release obstacles to growth.

This Spring* and always, may the growing light
brighten your body, heart, and mind
and make you more kind
to yourself, to others, and to all beings.
