The energy of the seasons has much more meaning to me as I have studied Energy Medicine. Most answers to things are found in nature. We are usually too busy to notice! The Fall Equinox was in September and marks the beginning of Fall and we are now moving into the darker part of the year until the Winter Solstice.
Darkness is a signal of a time to reflect and go inward.
Symbolized as Yin Energy in Chinese Medicine. Lots of healing and restorative energy in Yin.
Our society recognizes forward movement and light which is Yang Energy, but it doesn't give credit to the much needed quiet and reflective energy of Yin.
Truth is…we need both!
We cannot sustain ourselves on just the robust outward energy of Yang, we need the deep inward energy of Yin for renewal and revival. We can change some of those negative associations with darkness, knowing that dark Yin energy can help us feel better and succeed!
Even though you may be going into fall/winter kicking and screaming know that Yin energy is present and can help with healing, balance; it’s all part of the cycle!
