Soul-fire

© Minna Aalto

The infusion of soul-fire into our own ideas, our own life, the lives of those we touch, that is our work.
Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run With the Wolves.

Up north, daylight is growing more and more scarce on daily basis. The soul-fire seems to be burning brighter, as attention is turned inward in a most natural way. In its light necessities and priorities are scrutinized gently and firmly; what is no longer of service will be reduced to cinders and eventually ashes; a nurturing layer of things let go of.

Hibernation does not necessarily mean passivity, as passivity does not necessarily mean actionlessness. It is just more likely that the life force withdraws out of sight in order for one to sift through the inner matters that needs sifting through. When you look inward, look with love.
