The year is still in its early chapters. Here in the Northern Hempishere, frosted mornings and cold winds linger. Yet, if you pause and notice, the light is already returning. Days are slowly getting longer, mornings arrive a little earlier, and small signs of life are quietly stirring beneath the surface.
Imbolc, celebrated on 1 February, marks this subtle shift. Sitting between the winter solstice and the spring equinox, it reminds us that the seasons continue to move forward, even when it doesn’t feel obvious.
Connecting with Nature doesn't need to shout. You might notice the first snowdrops pushing through the soil, hear birds begin to sing a little earlier than yesterday, or simply watch how the light shifts across your window. These quiet moments remind us that change is already happening, even when it feels slow.
