The winter season is a wonderful time to immerse yourself in the creative process!
It brings a rich opportunity to awaken the “creative genius within” by exploring the gifts that are found in darkness. It allows us to reflect on our personal and creative journeys, taking a closer look at who we are – underneath the layers of life.
By looking for the “light” – and knowing that it’s there, somewhere, waiting to be discovered – we can reach a place where our personal reflection begins to shed its own light.
It’s a time to ponder where we’ve been, how we got to where we are now – and where to go from here. It’s an opportunity to explore new ways of thinking and to prepare for a new path of travel. It also marks an ideal time for connecting with our creative voice and our true heart’s desire.
- How will your “creative genius” be inspired by the darkness of the winter solstice?
- What magic will be created within you – as you move through the winter season and into spring?
- How will this magic be expressed through your creative work – and brought into springtime’s full bloom?
These are great questions to explore as we approach the winter solstice and move into the winter season – a time of rich reflection, introspection, renewal, and a thirst for all that is light.
As world-renowned artist, Vincent Van Gogh once proclaimed, “Let us love winter, for it is the spring of genius.”
Mother Nature knows that a certain amount of darkness is always needed in order to see – and to truly appreciate – the “light” of possibility.
It’s often at the darkest point in any process that you have the insight you need to see your situation from a new perspective. These insights open the door to new ideas, new solutions, and new directions.
What insights are waiting for you in the darkness of the winter season?
