February, Tapping Into the Magic

Hello, I hope this finds you well as we welcome February and a brand-new energy.
This is one of my favorite times of the year because even though it’s still technically winter in the Northern Hemisphere, signs of new life and new energy begin to make themselves known every day. You may already feel the palpable energy that is happening all around you and within you too. As the days continue to get longer and the bulbs begin to bloom, you may notice that you have a renewed energy, inspiration, and excitement about your life. This increase in momentum, joy, or energy is mirrored back to us by Mother Nature as we all collectively move toward the quickening and into Spring.

This month is like magic because while it’s the shortest month of the year it provides us so much change in such a small amount of time. Each day of this little month will increasingly offer us more of this renewed energy and spirit as we move though this last part of the winter season. You can tap into this energy and February magic simply by allowing yourself to notice and enjoy this shift that is happening right now within and around you. There is no one way or right way to enjoy or work with this energy, it’s just about finding the ways that resonate for you.

This month is also noted for its themes around love, friendship, and kindness. I think these two seemingly different themes work beautifully together. You see, as you naturally lean into this energy of forward motion, you’ll automatically be connecting to this February magic. As you take good care of yourself, you’ll also be loving and honoring yourself too. As we take good care of ourselves, we have more energy which allows us to take good care of the people in our lives that we love, too.

I encourage you to have fun tapping into this new energy this month, even for a few minutes each day and see how it makes you feel. Maybe you’ll feel guided to begin this new month with a few goals in mind and invest a little bit of time each day to working on them. Maybe this month you’ll feel guided to do something kind or thoughtful for someone you know, even if that means sending them a note letting them know you’re thinking about them. Maybe you’ll feel guided to make time for a quiet cup of tea each day and a little self-reflection. Maybe you enjoy looking for signs of the quickening like I do and make an effort to look for the subtle but real signs that things are waking up all around us each day. I like to go for walks even if I have to bundle up and look for new bulbs, birds, and grasses showing up in places they weren’t only a few days before. This month always feels like it’s holding onto a little secret somehow and it’s filled with gifts for each of us in infinite ways as long as we allow ourselves the chance to see and receive them.

If I had to choose a theme for this month, I would choose, expect miracles. It may seem like a big theme for such a little month, however miracles happen every day. This is a month that can breathe new life into the places and spaces which may have felt stagnant for you; allowing for shifts and changes that you can see and experience. My wish for you is that you’ll allow yourself to open up to all of the gifts that are available to you during this magical month of February. I hope you’ll enjoy every single day of the teeniest month of the new year. If you feel guided to share how you’re tapping into this energy, I would love to hear from you!

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you!
All my love and gratitude,
Kristy~ xoxo

The Season of Light

Happy December~

I hope this finds you well as we welcome the season of light together.
This time of year brings with it lots of extra light; some in the form of teeny lights, fairy lights, lights on homes, in trees, and even in windows. Maybe you’ve already added extra light to your home too. There’s something special and almost magical that happens when you add light to extra spaces in your home. Those little extra lights help to stir something within in us on a soul level. Maybe you’ve noticed this happening for you too; the feeling of deep calm, comfort, quiet, and sometimes a welling up of love and fond memories. Maybe you’ve noticed how these extra lights have a soothing effect on the people in your home and if you have little fur babies, how they’re impacted by the extra light as well.  

Often the light in combination with longer nights and darker days (for those of us living in the northern hemisphere) can create windows of opportunity for deep reflection, slowing down, and a focus on simplicity, and peace. There’s a calling from deep within us asking us to get quiet and to focus on the things that resonate with us on a core level as we prepare to move into a season of rest, renewal, and rejuvenation. While living in a modern world where the cyclical shifts of the seasons can feel like they’re happening next to us while we’re often living in a perpetual forward motion can be challenging. However, we can find ways to work with this push pull dichotomy so that we can integrate these experiences into our own lives in ways that work for us. We’re part of those cycles too and as we find ways to lean into them, we can find a place that feels more like us and feels more enjoyable.

Like most things, there’s no one way or right way to create this experience, there are only the ways that are right for you and your lifestyle; and you’re the only person who knows which ways are the right ways for you. If we think about lighting our lamp from within, we can focus on the aspects, areas, themes, or values that feel soothing, comforting, and like coming home as great places to start. Please remember that there’s no wrong answer here, and you can change your answers by adding to your list or removing things at any time you choose.

You may want to ask yourself the following questions to help you get started:

  • What do I know that I need to do for myself right now?

  • What is my body telling me that I need right now?

  • How can I nurture my soul right now?

  • In what ways can I create a space that feels supportive, soothing, and peaceful to me right now?

  • What kinds of sounds, scents, and textures feel like the right fit for me right now?

  • How can I cultivate a feeling that represents me right now?

  • Are there any things I can let go from my to do list right now? If so, what?

  • How can I lean into this season of light right now?

  • What does the season of light mean to me?

  • How can I light my lamp from within right now?

  • Is there a theme I want to focus on for this season of light? If so, what?

Some of the things that showed up for you may be things that you expected to find while others may be a surprise for you. Please know this isn’t another thing to add to your to do list but rather an opportunity to understand which areas or aspects of this season are speaking to you. The areas that are prescient for you may be similar to someone else’s but they may be entirely tailored for you. Give yourself permission to lean into your season of light in the ways that resonate for you. This can help to create a season that feels uplifting, supportive, and meaningful for you in a special way. It can also help you to slow down a bit and to feel the experience of the season, the cycles, and the celebratory qualities of this time of year.

This season can bring up lots of big feelings, emotions, and experiences. Sometimes, by taking a little time to cultivate and nurture your own light, it can help ease any big feelings that come up at this time of year. As the days grow darker and the nights longer, we’re given an opportunity to increase our own light and the light we have around us. My wish for you this season is that you allow your light to shine in full spectrum not only for the benefit of your loved ones but also for yourself. Feed your light with the love you have for your life. Fill your light with the things, people, situations, and activities that you love. You may want to add some intentions you have for yourself as well as you continue to light your lamp from within all season long.

In deepest gratitude and love, thank you so much for being here and being part of my life this year.
I’m holding you and yours in my thoughts this season. The light within me honors the lights within you.

I’m sending you all my love from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you.

Love,
Kristy~ xoxo
