A new season has begun – and with it comes an extraordinary amount of change.
I love the rich, vibrant colors of autumn. It’s my favorite season of the year – and oh, so inspiring!
- How does this season inspire the “rich color” within you?
- How does it spark your creative process?
Imagine taking an autumn walk and being surrounded by the richness of change. You see the leaves changing colors, perhaps dropping to the ground. You notice that squirrels are running around, looking for nuts to store for the winter. You notice the flower beds are getting a little more bare. You can sense that everything is changing – in preparation for a new cycle.
In nature, there is nothing that is not continually renewing itself – and that constant renewal is out of the ground of what no longer is. Nature knows that in order to renew itself, it must completely shed the old.
If we want to make a fresh start in life, we have to put ourselves where a fresh start actually takes place – in our heart and in our mind. We have to truly “feel” the change – and really “desire” the change. And once that’s achieved, we make up our mind that, yes – this change is welcomed.
This is a deep knowing that often can’t be explained in rational terms. It’s what I call intuition – and it serves as a guiding light when one senses that a change is the next right step.
Nature is constantly changing – without hesitation. It “just is.”
So during this colorful season, allow yourself to be fully released from the old way of doing things – and bask in the energy of self-renewal.
What colorful new beginnings are wanting to emerge for you?
These are the types of rich questions that we’ll be exploring in next month’s Moonlight Journaling Retreat – where we’ll be dabbling with 18 different journal writing techniques as we journey through the moon phases during a real-time 28-day lunar cycle.
Come join a beautiful and very sacred circle of creative souls – and dance with your inner wisdom as you explore the various aspects of yourself, your life, and your relationships with others – through the art of journal writing.
Here’s to a glorious season of change – filled with rich color!
I am in the process of shedding old unsupportive beliefs! I can feel the change already, just like the crisp autumn air.
I love this friendly reminder that change comes every year with no hesitation or push back. It just is. And there is such beauty in that. Change is necessary. It can actually be our friend if we allow it. Thank you for helping me see this.
Wonderful writing. Love the images and idea of letting go of what no longer serves my highest good. Thank you!
