February 1 marks the halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. My ancestors observed it as a day to welcome Imbolc — the season that falls between Winter and Spring (Or Yule and Ostara, as my ancestors called it) on the Wheel of the Year (aka the calendar).
Imbolc means in the belly because the pregnancy of ewes this time of year is a sign of coming Spring and new life. Some translate it in the belly of the Mother because this is the time when the seeds of Spring begin stirring in the belly of Mother Earth.
This season is a sort of in-between time, when our old dreams are behind us but our new dreams haven't quite manifested yet. It's a time of pregnancy, when the seeds of new life are planted and begin growing but they aren't fully a reality yet.
Imbolc is the real time for new year's resolutions! This season invites us to decide what goals we want to plant for the upcoming year. What ideas or projects would you like to bring into existence this year? What new life do you want to create for yourself? What seeds do you already feel stirring within you? What creations are you already pregnant with?
The archetypes of the divine feminine and divine masculine associated with this season of Imbolc are: the Inner Mother and the Inner Father. These energies are innate energies within all of us, regardless of whether or not we are parents to children. These are the parts of us who know how to nourish, nurture, and sustain all sorts of enterprises for the wellbeing of ourselves as well as our community and our world. The Mother and Father in us know how to devote themselves to initiatives we truly love and care about, so that responsibility doesn't feel like a chore or obligation! Our inner Mother and Father can remind us how to do this kind of work again, if we'll let them!
This season is about getting our priorities straight, deciding what we truly care about, and devoting ourselves to nourishing and growing these initiatives in our own lives as well as the lives of others.
Do you know what's most important to you? Does your life actually reflect your priorities? What would you truly like to devote your minutes, hours and days to? Do your responsibilities feel like duties? Or do they feel like privileges you get to do? What changes do you need to make to to live a life inspired by devotion rather than obligation?
In the Imbolc course in Soul Revolution, you're invited to do this inner work of your soul in a group container rather than trying to do it alone — it's more fun together!
In this course, starting February 6, I'll engage your mind by teaching you about the inner Mother and Father archetypes within you. I'll open your heart by guiding you in a quantum meditation that allows you to channel a message from your own inner parent. And I'll invite your body to embody your inner parent by setting intentions for the season. These intentions will become your initiation — your challenge — for integrating this divine aspect of your soul into your life more fully.
You won't do this alone. You'll be able to share in a group with fellow travelers who are on the same journey. The course also includes weekly live calls and a one on one integration session with me.
If you're looking for a way to connect to your own soul, to connect to your own understanding of divinity, to meditate in a way that actually produces a direct experience of spirit, to sync to the rhythm of Nature, to harmonize the masculine and feminine energies within you, and to develop a trust in your own intuition, then you belong in this course!

Winter is over — the time for dreaming is over! Now is the time for awakening! What do you want to start devoting your life to? Can you think of a worthy cause? What do you want to create? All of Nature is conspiring with you to build and create right now! What are you going to do?
I can't wait to see what you and Mama Nature create together!
Happy Imbolc,
🙏🐑🐐🤰🕯
