march is both savage and serene

Happy March! Spring is almost here. And this week I am sharing with you all about how I am figuring out how to survive the winter-spring war, what lent means to me, and revealing the spiritual practice that I am committing to for the whole month. Hope you enjoy the episode!

“Our life is March weather, savage and serene in one hour.”― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Savage and Serene

March is both. It is winter and spring all at once. But, seasonal transitions are hard. All transitions are hard. Wandering in the wilderness is difficult. Silent, solitary retreats and pilgrimages are challenging. Moving through the seasons is tough. Letting it all unfold as it will, one day at a time, is not always easy.

But the rhythms of the seasons and the cycles of life move on. We change and grow and evolve. And, right now, we are right in the middle of the winter-spring war. Still, there is a deeper meaning behind it all and there is a way forward for us. There is magic to be found and wisdom to discover - throughout Lent, as the seasons change, and when we spend time with our souls.

Slow down this month and create space for your own spirituality. Seek solitude as a way to stay grounded. Commit to a daily practice or ritual. Find your inner voice or the divine light that shines in you. Think of it however you will. But, discover what you are being called to as we move into the season of rebirth and renewal.
