Winter dreaming – approaching Winter Solstice
Now we are approaching this year’s winter-solstice at last. This is the point of the year when we really say winter has begun; from now on it’s going to get colder and more uncomfortable outside, and we are going to have to make sure we have the right warm clothing on when we go out so that we keep nice and warm.
Here again we meet the duality of our existence here on earth as, while it gets colder and we feel as if it was becoming darker still, the light has already begun to grow and the days that seem so short are really gradually getting longer. Symbols like evergreen fir branches or mistletoe remind us that life goes on and the sap will rise again and fill the world with life. We keep cosy and warm, gather around the fires in our houses and save our energy for what will come. …. Do we?
