Nature misses you as much as you miss to be out in the air, feeling the cold breath of the wind kissing your skin. You are probably, just like me, all day glued behind your screen.
Nature
If you have trouble sleeping, if you feel fatigued, if you are a bit bored with life: adventure is calling you. You know that you’d better go outside and bathe in nature. In Japan this is called shinrin-yoku, and it reduces high blood pressure and boosts the immune system.
When you seem to have lost purpose in life, give yourself permission to spend four moments every season to reflect on your inner wisdom. Tapping into the well of your inner wisdom by reading a mythological story. Being challenged to interpret it. Getting guidance on how to work with mythology and archetypes. And last but certainly not least, to use the technique of dream incubation you’d be tuning into the wisdom that is locked in mythology.
Celtic Fire Festivals
Our ancestors had to be in tune with nature. The Celts celebrated each new beginning of the seasons. I have developed an online course that tunes in exactly on those needs.

- Enjoy a mythological story of Celtic Mythology;
- Learn some clever techniques to interpret a mythology;

The next event will be at Imbolc, February 2, when we will honour the wisdom of Brighid. We will look for the fertile parts of our personality that might be buried deep into the depths of our dreams.
On Beltane, April 30, we will (re)search the wisdom of the mother of the Earth, as she is depicted as Guinevere in the Arthur mythology.
And on August one, we will celebrate the god of light who is at the height of its power now.

My mythology class honors the cross quarters. I see the Western horizon from my home and watch the days shorten as the Sun moves south. That must be even more striking where you are. I’m a Nature Mystic–more and more as I age. Forest bathing and stream washing are favorites. Each Monarch release this summer, all 90+ of them, was a ritual of hope after raising them from eggs and watching the miracle of their transformations. The last one flew this morning. It has a long journey ahead to Mexico, but there are still flowers in the fields for nectar.
Hi Elaine, thanks for your replay. I know from experience how my body resonates with the seasons. Your life sounds wonderful and very much in tune with nature.
