Samhain blessings

In ancient times, the Celtic festival of Samhain was celebrated as a mandatory holiday that lasted not 1 full day…but 3 full days and nights…

As Samhain occurs at roughly the midpoint between the Fall Equinox and the Winter Solstice, it was to mark an ending to the harvest time and the beginning of a new cycle…Celebrating, honouring and connecting deeper with nature’s transition from lightness (summer) to darkness (winter)…

Last night and today (until sunset), is a good moment to reflect on what we have learned during these past months,…What lessons, gifts and wisdom do we wish to take forward into winter?…What are we most grateful for?…🙏

We might also spend some time exploring our shadow,…Recognising beliefs that we have outgrown or any other limitations or ways of being that no longer serve us or resonate.
What are we feeling ready to let go of?…

Seeing ourselves not separate but “in sync” with Mother Natures rhythms and cycles, means;…

…Like our ancestors, we harness the energy available to us, to move forward into a new cycle lighter, more free, and grateful for the lessons our journey provided us…Our energy can expand to encompass new experiences. Or, more simply, we give ourselves permission to go within, and embrace the deep rest, relaxation and quiet, incubation time of winter ❄

Our ancestors and guides are always nearby and offering their support and guidance when needed…We only need to ask!…

Can you feel them and their love surrounding you?…

Divine Timing in Nature

I love how Mother Nature always shows divine timing,…especially in spring.

Last year at the beginning of spring (during lock-down here in Italy), I observed a local bee colony returning to drink water from our village creek…just when the sun’s rays had warmed the area to a perfect climate and life-giving vitality…I recognise this as divine timing in nature.

Yesterday, on the warmest spring day we have had so far, I observed many of what I think are “Mason Bees” (Solitary Bees) arriving at a beautifully, locally crafted “Insect Hotel” to make their yearly nests. After 3 years since this Insect Hotel was constructed, I have never seen it so “buzzing” with energy, so busy and occupied!

Every time I connect with these magical little beings, they remind me of the “unseen” worlds existing all around me and a much greater, guiding, spiritual force – interconnecting all of life.

To align myself with this same force I see in nature all around me, I need to trust, be patient and recognise the synchronicity and divine timing in all aspects of my life.

A wonderful and very simple way to do this through out the day, is to connect with the humble, hard-working and devoted bee.

Around 4 years ago, I have written a blog post about the spiritual meaning of the bee.
