Spring Equinox

I’ve been quiet, giving myself space, for my head, for my body, for everything that needed time to settle.

It hasn’t been easy.

Most days it’s been about small shifts: saying no, stepping away, holding some parts of life back for myself.

Strange how much strength hides in things that look like retreat.

Now, with the equinox, I feel pulled back here. The season always feels like a threshold, equal night and day, light holding hands with shadow. That’s where I am too. Not fully in the light, not lost in the dark. Just standing in that in-between, holding both. Somehow.

“To lose focus means to lose energy. The wild nature carries the medicine for all things.”
