This year I am thinking about winter and the changing of the calendar.
Winter (at least in cold climates) has been a time to hunker down, go inside and rest. In our current world that is a bit more challenging from a work perspective, but from a spiritual perspective it is still very doable.

Winter is a great time for introspection, connection and rejuvenation.
Many people had a rough fall and holiday season, and the solar flares and storms did not help!
When I think about those types of “journeys” I am reminded of a seed, in order for a seed to grow it must first be planted in good nutrient rich soil.
IT IS DARK IN THERE
Then it needs to be nourished with water and warmth.
When it starts to grow the seed literally breaks apart and is destroyed from the inside out, this sounds painful and feels like everything is falling to pieces.
Then the seed starts to sprout, it starts small and slow, then as it gets fertilized (think manure and the other more colorful words we use for that) getting piled on.
This can feel pretty bleak from one perspective, but if you look at it a bit differently you realize that without the dark, the breaking apart and the $h!t that gets piled on the seed has no chance to grow.

This is how it works for us too.
Sometimes when we feel like we are in a dark place and everything is falling apart, we just need to take a step back and recognize that it is time for us to GROW!
Growth happens in interesting and often uncomfortable ways.

So much is happening in the energetic world, Solar storms/flares, Aurora borealis visible in the lower 48, Supermoons, New Year’s. 3I Atlas hanging around.

In addition, we have life happening all around us.
This can make things seem like they are just piling up, and we don’t know which way to turn or how to respond.
Little things get under our skin; the person who is driving too slowly, or who cuts us off in traffic, the tone of voice someone we love uses, or the tone of a stranger.

When any- or all of this happens, sometimes changing how you think about it can make all the difference.
Instead of getting angry, upset, or sad, remember there are no good or bad things that happen, those are just labels we attach to the events in our world. Think about how you can respond instead of reacting.

Stop for a moment to consider what that person who upset you might be going through, maybe they are really tired from staying up all night with a sick family member and they don’t even realize that they are going 60 in a 65.
Maybe they are rushing to help a friend, or to the hospital and have so much stress that they didn’t even see your car.
Who knows, maybe they are just a bad driver! At the end of the day, you cannot control how they drive or what is happening (or not happening) in their head. All you can do is control how you respond to them.

One of my favorite quotes is “Be kinder than necessary, everyone is fighting a battle that you know nothing about.”
Driving or talking in sharp tones are just two small examples.

I just finished reading The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins. I highly recommend this book to everyone, all ages, all paths. It is full of the same ideas that I try to impart, just much more organized and more detailed. She also had more than an hour to go over it all. You can check it out from the library in print or digitally. You will find it everywhere books are sold.

Basically, if someone is doing something that you are reacting to, recognize that the only person you can control and change is YOU!
So “let them” do the thing and “let me” choose how to respond.
The only part she did not go into as much detail as I would have liked is the forgiveness piece.
Remember that forgiveness is for you, not for them.
Not forgiving someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.

Take care of you and your responses. Keep your power and protect your peace.
