Hello loves,
Happy Lunar New Year & New Moon! We have officially entered the year of the Snake π What some think of as the βrealβ new year, the coming days are a powerful time to plant new intentions into the rich fertile soil of the year aheadβ¦
A time to embrace whatβs changing, within and around us. To recognize the natural cycles of death & rebirth that are constantly present as we flow through the seasons of life. All that lives, must die, change, or take a new form β period.
This can be scary, no doubt - we often donβt like facing these truths of life because we get comfortable and attached to things as they are, often for good reason. But the more we resist it, the more we struggle against the natural flow of where life is guiding us.
Think of swimming upstream, or the snake trying to desperately hold onto its old skin...
In its wisdom, this archetype teaches us how to embrace transformations. How to shed the skins of what weβve outgrown. The snake reminds us that in order to transform, we must let go of old identities in order to express new ones.
Change is a natural part of existence and letting go is essential for growth. We can do this while honouring with gratitude what has been, and how itβs shaped our process of growth.
So, what revolution is happening within you right now? How are you changing your expression in a way thatβs more true to who you really are? Is there some old part of you youβve been clinging to and some emerging part youβve been resisting growing into? How are you restructuring and innovating your life to support more of your authentic Self?
As you embrace the next evolution of your expression, what old ways are dying?
When we cut through old binding patterns, it allows us to let go of the old and give birth to new or unexpressed parts of ourselves.
Itβs a beautiful time to create some ceremony around this. Take some time to yourself this new moon, while the sky is dark and the moonβs glow disappears, to get quiet, to get still and connect more deeply with your innermost self.
Cozy up, do βThe Cocoonβ Yoga NidrΔ for Embracing Change (free below for subscribers β€οΈ), make a cup of yummy tea, stream-of-consciousness journal guidance from your highest Self.
~ Spoiler/Teaser: yoga nidrΔ connects us to the truest, timeless part of ourselves that never diesβ¦ ~
What are your intentions for the future? When the moon is new (beginning to be visible again) is the best time for setting intentions/planting seeds.
Invoke the symbol of the snake anytime this year in your meditations, your process, if you find youβre having trouble letting go - it will help you in detaching and moving forward. Let it support your process of releasing old identities, lifestyles, ideas, beliefs, relationships, and careers so that you can give birth to new forms.
Wishing you a beautiful, graceful rebirth this year loves. Remember, growth is a process, so be patient and kind with yourself!
