Yesterday we celebrated the first day of March. Are you ready to welcome Spring? Even though we are getting a bunch of snow here in New England this weekend, Spring is just a few short weeks away. March is often known for the winds of change that it brings our way. Make sure you are open to changes around you and changing paths and energy this month. It’s also a month that is going to bring you energy of New Beginnings as we move towards the Spring Equinox on the 20th of the month. Let’s take a look at what else is coming our way.
March 1 – First day of March
March 6 – Laurie Cabot’s birthday. Laurie is the official witch of Salem.
March 18 – Celtic Tree Month of Alder begins
March 20 – Full Storm Moon – This is the third and Final Supermoon of the 2019 trio.
March 21 – Ostara/Spring Equinox
Wind
The Essence
The symbol of the Wind represents the element of air; it rules communication, thought, song, and inspired ideas. It also signifies change with qualities both positive and negative. The wind blows from each of the four directions, and there are different qualities bestowed by each:
South: carrying a new sense of trust, helping you gently begin to discard habits and parts of you that are no longer needed.
West: calling you to more introspection, to a willingness to make final decisions, to let go of attachment and ego desires.
North: moving to bring you wisdom and strength.
East: carrying clarity of vision and purpose.
Whichever way the wind is blowing for you, the message, which the wind whispers or shouts, is a challenge. It may take courage at first to turn and face the wind, but you will find exultation in moving toward it and receiving its lessons.
The Invitation
When the spirit of the Wind comes calling, it’s a sign of change. Perhaps you need to change your mind about something. Perhaps an old way of doing things has become automatic, and now that you’ve gained greater clarity, you can make a new choice. Regardless of what the change is, you can expect to be understood and to have clear communication with others at this time. Ideas are solid, and the shift that is being called for is in the highest good of all.
The Medicine
When Wind comes as medicine, you’re being invited to recognize the value of chaos. Windstorms provide necessary chaos to clear the air and spread seeds so plants and trees can take root in new fields. Right now it may seem as if your world has been turned upside down, but this is a temporary storm that will blow over. Perhaps communication has broken down between you and another, or your many to-do lists are overwhelming you. The medicine is to simplify, slow down, course correct if you need to, and wait out the storm to clean things up. Just know that all storms have great value if you can remain neutral during their course. Greater clarity and good things will come from it all. Remember, this too shall pass.
This month I wanted to pull a card from the Mystical Shaman Oracle for you. I love that we got the Wind card for March! I told you earlier that March brings those winds of change. Make sure that you are open and ready for the changes coming your way this month. You are going to find these changes help you to remove what isn’t working for you from your life to make way for the new energy that the Spring Equinox is going to bring our way and the beautiful energy of Spring.
Have an amazingly magickal day today!
Much Love and Many Blessings,
