Tending the Seasons of Your Feminine Garden

This is the power of the feminine. One part of us blooming ecstatically, shining her utterly gorgeous magnetic brilliance on our world!

And at the same time, another part us tight in a bud, still in development, not ready for emergence yet.

Then, there’s that part of our life that is undeniably dissolving, letting go, going through a profound death-rebirth.

There is no separation.

All seasons coexist in the garden of our being, in the garden of our life.

We’re not only beautiful or powerful when we’re in full bloom.

We’re beautiful and powerful because we contain the whole—the full spectrum of life and creation.

Underneath our circumstances, and the various stages of evolution in our embodiment, our relationships, our work—there is a convergence of roots, a pulsing fabric of beauty, meaning, and growth, woven from the intelligence of life herself.

Underneath the seeming duality of our lives is a deeper coherence that we can trust and relax into.

This is the intelligence our womb and feminine body is coded with—the deep loving power that can hold sacred duality, and hold us.

On Sundays, I like to pause to contemplate where I’m flowering— what’s expanding and bearing fruit in my life, and to really honor, celebrate, and savor it.

And then, to also assess where I’m feeling grief, uncertainy, challenge, or a profound level of transformation and alchemy.

To meet it, see it, and allow the full picture to be revealed, so I can tune in to what is needed this upcoming week in the garden of my life.

Where I’m blooming, I don’t want to ignore or lessen the grief. And if I’m being honest with myself—I can’t. The grief is ever so close, always entwined with each new evolution and flowering.

And where I’m challenged, I don’t want to lessen my expansion or stop feeding my joy.

I feel whole when I can feel it all, without needing to separate parts of myself or my life.

Instead, I can relax into the infinite feminine intelligence in my body that can hold it all.

I can merge with this deeper power of life, and learn from it.

This is exactly our design as women.

We hold the non-dual creative wisdom of life in our wombs and bodies.

The more integrated we become, the more powerful we are.

When we’re in sync with the truth of our life, a deeper fulfillment sinks in, a deep alignment and love that nourishes us and carries us organically to our next steps.

If this speaks to you, I invite you to take a moment today to contemplate the garden of your life.

What dimension of your being is blooming and deserving wild, unbridled celebration?

What part of your life is dissolving and transforming, asking for softness or grief?

What facets of you are currently tight in a bud, requiring attuned gardening and magical mothering to blossom in perfect timing?
