Winter is difficult because the reminders of natural life are hidden from us under deep snow and ice. During this time, we are left to ourselves. Just as the sun welcomes synchronicity at each solstice, winter is another reunion of this natural peace. Welcoming this pause ourselves allows our inner and outer body to once again reconnect to the seasons of life. Thus tying the tide of winter and summer to the tide of inner and outer self. Life necessitates winter, because winter snowfalls feed the summer rivers. A deprived winter yields a deprived summer. Under the gentle, sleepy safety of the winter, greet your inner self with the same warmth and inquisitiveness as the solstice sun.
