radio. Just me, my home, nature and maybe a book or two. This opportunity allows me to get back in touch with me, my light and my dark and prepare for the upcoming energy of the winter months. I will spend time writing in my journal, walking in nature or simply sitting outside and watching birds fly over the lake, fish jumping and leaves falling to the ground. During this special day, I rise early to watch the sunrise and end my day with the sun setting. Very few physical words will be spoken. I will light candles, burn my favorite incense and fill my home with its beautiful fragrant smell. I will eat when I’m hungry and nap when I’m tired. I will utterly let go and simply be. Stepping away from the loudness and hectic pace of our modern lives, even for just one day, helps us to simply be. We are human beings after all, not human doings. This is the time for balance. To experience balance in our outer life, we must create it from the inside. As within, so without. When we go into the quiet, we find that center point, that sense of self, we can then let it go, and seek out the deeper connections found when the self is released. This is not about going with the flow, it is about being in the flow. This is where the magical and mystical gifts of Spirit can become manifest. The freedom of letting go, opens us up to being a part of the universal flow, attached neither to light or dark, as both are one in the same. Every day there is a chance to stop, to enter into a ritual, to take a step back and simply savor the moment. When I am unable to take a full day to go into the silence, I will take an hour and make it my hour, using the time to be unplugged and tuned in. Give it a try for an hour or for a day, and see how you are refreshed, revitalized and renewed. Tis the Season.
