Hello @freemotherearth this is a beautiful post, always good to meet fellow Pagans.
I applaud you for recognizing the call for introspection, finding space and being able to prepare for the next phase of challenges.
An interesting phenomenon has happened with me this year, even though I'm in the southern hemisphere and should be feeling invigorated with Spring and the rebirth process, my experience this year has been as if I'm in the northern hemisphere experiencing the drawing to a close of the cycle. It's been very strange to say the least but I identified so much with a lot of what you have said, I wonder why this year has been so different for me?
I love how you ended the post with reverence to those before us and being open to the lessons. I am feeling similar at the moment. I wish you well during this time.

I'm always excited to find other pagans on here as well. Who knows, maybe one of these days I will post consistently enough to help facilitate a community for us.
Blessings to you as well!
<3Thanks for the comments @andrastia! I have experienced what you are mentioning before...a few years ago I showed up at our Mabon wheel turning and was very much in the spirit of Ostara, full of the light returning and excited about the springtime returning to the southern hemisphere ~ which I have never been to!
