Winter energy comes from within. It's from darkness and silence that the aspirations of our soul and new inspirations can arise. When we fear our own darkness, we take away an essential source of our own personal power. The key is not to let darkness overwhelm our lives and thoughts, but to realize that darkness can be one of the greatest catalysts for personal growth and transformation. Winter shapes our personality and gives us the best of ourselves. Maybe even our way to enlightenment. Let your feelings be your guiding light because your feelings are your truth. To know how beautiful a snowflake is, you have to stand out in the cold.
