42. Spring Energy, and collective reading!
Delain where are you directing you're energy?
Spring is a powerful time for cleansing, planting new seeds, connecting with nature, and renewal. Wether it's in our personal lives or businesses.
When we take the time to reflect on the season we're moving into, we get to decide how we want to move forward, what to let go of and what to nurture.
As nature is awakening and becomes more fertile, we see her open up flowers, green the trees and fill in the forests. This cycle is all about renewal and re birth, we get to take stock of what winter Brough us, and tend to what needs mending.
If winter was a hard season for you, what would you love this Spring? What is something you don't plan on bringing forward with you these new few months?
Taking the time to reflect, connect and pause before moving forward will be a valuable tool moving forward. So what are you going to focus on bringing to life this Spring?
Big Love, Delain

What are the Runes, and how to use them?
This episode I talk with the amazing Tammy Bergen, a Volva (nordic witch) She started as a student of the Runes while discovering her ancestry and has become a teacher. Her in-depth knowledge of Norse Mythology and the magic behind the Runes is why I chose her for this episode, but why I will have her back! There are so many different ways to use the Runes and I think an episode on those would be magic as well!
Tammy has a deep respect for the Runes, and teaches others just how powerful the energy behind them is. Intent is the most important thing behind using the Runes and for the desired outcome. I took Tammy's first level of lessons, learning the Elder Futhark and I cannot wait for level two, Tammy is an incredibly powerful teacher!
