Overcoming obstacles
When hardship, obstacle or defeat make us small it can feel like the very winter of things. This is a Water Element message of optimism without judgment, and the silver lining we have yet to see. On the pathway of the seasons and the Taoist way we discover; it is all good.
From Water to Wood
At this critical seasonal crossover we meet Winds gentle persistence and unreleting influence that, over time, erodes mountains and sculpts rocks. What it brings to the psyche of the seasonal traveller is a lengthening of the rope on the bucket of the well that enables the villagers to replenish from the Waters that are deep, clear and plentiful within. Its about allowing yourself to be moved.
