Yule time is a time of reflection.
After Winter Solstice, the light
Will slowly return as the wheel
Moves and heads for Imbolc.
With short days and long nights,
We can go inwards to examine,
Where we are on our life journey.
If we have achieved all we wanted.
What lessons have we learned?
Have we let go of what no longer
Serves us? Is forgiveness in our hearts?
Are we ready to forgive ourselves?
Holding onto grudges is not an option,
We must show compassion to others,
But also to ourselves, so we can heal.
Trauma lives painfully on in the body.
Healing transforms us and makes us
Whole - brings us a grateful heart.
Makes us appreciate what we have.
Healing leads to peaceful calm within.
So, at this busy time, let's take time,
To rest, reflect, re-set, and recuperate.
Allow the light of hope to return and
Imbibe us with new dreams to fulfill.
