I can not see my life at all past the beginning of the new year. I try to imagine life after Feburary and all I see is darkness. What is to come for me?
Beginning with Samhain, in late October, we go into a time of spiritual darkness. It's a time to of introspection; a time to work on yourself. The time of darkness mimics the cycles of life and death. This time of darkness and the feeling of dwelling in the underworld persists through Yule. This is a necessary time. Prepare yourself to be reborn at Imbolc, which falls at the beginning of February. That is the time to prepare yourself for the return of the light; it's the time to sow the seeds for what you want to spiritually grow in the new year. With Osatara comes the first days of Spring; new life. Review. Plan. Plant. Grow the life you want. You only dwell in darkness if you choose to.
bva'ka dih Your sight will be renewed at that time ... you will see things differently and respectful of what is most important to nature . . . *this doesn't apply to yo-yo-s
There seems to be a dark shade cast over many things, lately. The world seems to be in shadow. I don't know what's been doing on, but anxiety has been nipping at my heels for a few weeks.
The "dark shade" as you call it has been cast for several months now... like the middle of August somewhere. I mentioned it in one of the threads back then. Seems only Lynnbrown had noticed something similar. We are on the verge of something... Even the trees, birds, and other animals sense it.
