Welcome Sweet Spring
If our dreams carry us to a spring landscape filled with blooming flowers and greening foliage, we are being shown the possibility of inner renewal. Spring symbolizes new life within the psyche. Often, it's a transformation born out of the hermetic, introspective darkness of a psychological winter -- or what Jung called the night sea journey.
Hallelujah Spring!
More light than darkness, more growth than decay, more warmth than cold. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I know part of our lot as living beings is to withstand and be humbled by the harshness of nature.
But we can’t let life’s winters leave us without hope for spring – no matter how cold and dark.
Just like plants, we have to use the nutrients we’ve been able to gather from our last growing season, take them underground with us and wait. We can try to force a rebirth all we want, but we’ll just bang our heads on frozen ground. We can only lie there, in humble hibernation, until the universe graciously pushes out the icy winds and moves us closer to the warmth and light of the sun.
So world — as I watch the crocuses open and the daffodils bud — thank you for your gift of rebirth, renewal and rejuvination.
