receptive cultivation   

 

Light:​

Something new is growing; being mindful of the way things are unfolding, changing, or blossoming; carefully tending to the "garden" of your mind and soul, or the mind and soul of others; nurturing, or, self care

​

Dark:

Neglecting the "garden" of your mind; avoiding tending to things that require attention, whether emotionally, spiritually, physically, relationally; feeling not good enough; lack of self care or gentleness

​

Ask Yourself:

What is unfolding?  How is the garden of your mind, soul, body, life, relationship looking?  Are there weeds you need to root out?  Are there new flowers and trees being planted?  What kind of a habitat have you created?  And how are you protecting your garden?  Is it fenced, gated, walled-off, or open to all?  What do your garden boundaries say about you, and do you need to build a new fence or take one down?  ;)
