Early nightfall. Crisp mornings. The sharp silhouette of leaf-bare branches. Misty mornings and red cheeks. Bare branches and starry nights. Do you watch the light fading on your pages as you read? 

For this theme of exploring our own divinity through the seasons, I am going to bring in the element of water-- as it is the element that reminds us that life is always changing, flowing from one moment to the next. It is the element that reminds us of being the most connected to the origin of being human regardless of gender-- our femininity. 

Water, with its feminine flow and powerful potential becomes the cheerleader of winter, with its deep introspection and humbling exposure. Water shows us how we can adapt to our conditions and make use of our power during the existential quandary of winter.

In the same way that the leaves change their color and release themselves from the branches, we often change our minds about things and release those ideas from our identity.
