The power in the changing of the seasons.

Last December Solstice, the darkest night, I completed my first ebook called Aschouving, pushing the publish button at the beautiful stone circle at Lough Gur, near Limerick, Ireland. At the Spring equinox I wrote a poem called ‘Ode to the Spring Equinox’, what else!! Summer solstice manifested a fantastic song called ‘I can’t fly’ inspired by the lyrics of an 8 year old. On the same day I went into my garden took a video, effortlessly wrote another poem on the same theme as the video which I called ‘Stillness’. Without a doubt the most electric day for me in my house so far this year or maybe any year. Autumn equinox found me in Dublin where I watched the sun rising over the horizon like never before and visited a wonderful pop up exhibition of creativity called ‘Granby Park’. Samhain is the old Irish name for Halloween and yet again another powerful experience, this time a more intimate personal inner transformation and healing as I continue to fumble about in this illusion I call life. And turning full circle the inner work deepens this Winter solstice as im called to more and more stillness found in a very grounding breathing technique called Buteyko. Ancient Irish tradition speaks of these seasons as times of personal and collective transformation, when the boundaries between this reality and the great unknowing become less rigid, more fluid, allowing us all to step into another world if we so wish. This has being my experience during 2013 🙂
