Many of us in the Northern Hemisphere have experienced a pretty extreme winter this year. It's been a consistent stream of hurricane-style storms in UK and northern Europe and snow storms in US, the like of which we've never seen before. There have been many times I'm sure, where we have wondered when it would end. It has certainly created a new respect for Mother Nature's power and influence over our lives and the earth's landscape.
Yet, despite these weather adversities and the hopelessness some people must feel who have been in the storms' midst, there are signs of spring's subtle emergence. Flowers are beginning to push through the soil, winter wheat is surging, birds are tuning up their vocal chords and lambs have blessed our fields already.
Yet, despite these weather adversities and the hopelessness some people must feel who have been in the storms' midst, there are signs of spring's subtle emergence. Flowers are beginning to push through the soil, winter wheat is surging, birds are tuning up their vocal chords and lambs have blessed our fields already.
It is possible that there is still a sting in winter's tail, although for the moment, embracing spring's early arrival is giving us just a little bit of hope. Do you feel the delicate shift of seasons where you are? What spring awakening signs are you seeing around you? What gathering symbols is autumn offering right now? Sometimes seasons transition so quietly that we simply adapt to the change without so much as a nod. Unless we rely on the seasons for our livelihoods, then we tend not to really acknowledge the gentle shift in Mother Nature's energy. I wonder what potential we are missing with this blindness?
In the last year I've been increasingly interested in the subtle vibrations that each season presents to us, given our recent exploits in our poly-tunnel. There's nothing like taking up gardening to really tune into what influence air temperature, soil composition and insect lifecycles have on your prized vegetable crops. I'm so grateful to the insights I've had over the year. I must add that I've always been interested in nature as a child, although our transition this last year into working with the earth and the seasons has been enlightening and it has touched my life in a profound way. So much so that it is shaping my heart-centred work.
Whichever side of the Equator you live, you will be moving into a very powerful season. Spring and autumn are highly influential times of the year in Nature, centred around two strong energy surges with the March and September Equinox. Yet in our human realm, they seem to pass us by without too much bother. So here's some interesting possibility for us to consider:
And so I leave you with these thoughts and where ever in the world you live, just take a moment to really listen to the vibrations of your season.
If you are curious enough to think about this some more, then why not watch out for my Seasonal Healing Programme, which will be launching soon where I will tackling this very subject. Learn how to live in harmony with Mother Nature's seasonal rhythms using my Butterfly Principle. An on line healing programme that you can work through in the comfort of your own home, with beautiful exercises and meditations to stimulate a new way of thinking, feeling and being.
And so with the dawning of a new, blue sky day here in Somerset, England, I wish Butterfly Blessings to you all.

Spring and autumn are highly influential times of the year in Nature, centred around two strong energy surges with the March and September Equinox. Yet in our human realm, they seem to pass us by without too much bother. So here's some interesting possibility for us to consider:
- What if we could tune into the natural rhythms of Nature and thereby enhance our lives effortlessly?
- What lessons could we learn from Mother Nature's subtle influence that could change how we do things?
- How could we magically co-exist with the seasons such that it could bring a beautiful simplicity to our lives?
