Wed 11 Feb
Transition from Winter to Dawn. In this month, we have the slow, early awakening from the winter slumber. As daylight hours reach peak acceleration, imagine nature is coming out of a deep sleep, but still in those initial stages of consciousness. A couple slow blinks to wash away the dream.
Gentle Awakening: Seeing without forcing insight
Unfolding: Becoming, not being
Open questions: Time to be curious
• Review the past year without judgment.
• This is not the time to do more.
• It’s the time to notice more.
• You’re not meant to leap into clarity—just to regain a sense of presence.
• I take my bearings before choosing direction.
• I wake up slowly and kindly.
• I let mental fog lift at its own pace.
