Birch
10 degrees
18 inches of snow on the ground
The dawn came up in the colors of a dove--slate-blues, pale grays and soft pinks.
In the lunar calendar, we are in Beth, the tree-month of the birch tree, the first of the sacred year. The birch is a symbol of inception, of beginnings. What I like about the old religion, about pagan spirituality is the way that the sacred is imbued into real life and every day objects. The sight of a birch tree, or a raven, accesses a whole web of complex concepts and interlinked correspondences.
Truth is too big to be contained in one set of precepts.
