The turning of the cosmic wheel at the spring equinox inspired our indigenous ancestors in the Americas, the Celts and other ancient peoples, to construct ramadas and stone portals to frame the higher angle of the rising sun. Perhaps we feel challenged this year, facing our own frailty with the violence and fracture in the world around us. So, in this session we’ll take time to attune ourselves to stirrings in the natural world: green shoots & buds, increased birdsong or the changing scent of the morning air, to summon resilience in body and spirit. With poets as our guides, we’ll cast our nets out for images in nature around us, write or sketch to capture bits of awe and inspiration to support our own healing journeys.
No previous writing experience needed, just a willingness to listen, notice and play with words. Bring a journal, a sketchpad, an open heart!
