Setting off on a magical adventure. Are you with me?
(Inspired by a photo by @georgiarosehardy)

I think winter is making up for the mild season we've had, because as I write this even more snow is falling - that makes 4 big snowfalls in the last 2 weeks!
Although spring now seems a long way off, inside my little cottage tiny green sprouts have poked their way through brown soil in search of light and warmth. This is the first year that I'm attempting to grow seedlings indoors to transplant in my garden once the threat of frost has past. By doing so, I'm hoping to give my little plants more time to grow and flourish.
I have all sorts of yummy vegetables planted and am hoping to plant some herbs today as I watch the snow fall outside.
I've only had my little vegetable patch and herb garden for about two years and it seems like there's always so much more to learn.
Do you like to garden? What's your favorite thing to grow? Do you have any advice for a newbie gardener?

I need solitude.
I need space.
I need air.
I need the empty fields round me;
and my legs pounding along roads;
and sleep;
and animal existence.
-Virginia Woolf
Today’s my birthday and the most beautiful snow is falling outside! The woods are completely transformed into a magical world and when I stand there looking up into the falling snow drifting down from the endless white sky it’s as if nothing else exists but this moment of infinitude.
Snowfall has this way of making me feel present. Is there a certain event or activity that helps you to feel present?

It looks like earth is not quite ready to emerge from its winter slumber. Just a few days ago, I could feel spring on the air, but now snow is falling and the woods have once again been transformed into a magnificent land of ice and frost. As much as I'm ready for spring, I'm excited to venture out into the woods today to smell the scent of snow and feel its magic.

Page of Cups - Keywords: a messenger, awakening, possibilities
The tarot card Page of Cups carries tidings of good news and exciting possibilities. It reminds us to keep an open heart and mind, to stay curious, and to be willing to see things from a different perspective.
After creating this photo, I instantly thought of the wolf as the Page of Cups - a woodland messenger sharing exciting news with the maiden, inviting her into a magical realm filled with new possibilities.
Do you resonate with the Page of Cups at all? I'd love to hear how you might recognize this energy in your life.

Artio is a bear goddess in Celtic mythology. While she often takes the form of a bear, she also has been known to appear as a woman wearing a bear skin cloak. Artio is closely linked with the cycles of the seasons, and is especially associated with spring when she wakes from her winter slumber along with the plants and animals breathing new life into the earth. Artio is also associated with motherhood and protection.
