“The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.” ~~Victor Hugo, Les Miserables
By astronomical reckoning, our days have been getting longer for a week and some days now; the change in light is hard to see, as the sunlight hours remain the same for several days, and it will be mid-January before sunrise comes as early as it did on the December solstice itself.
Yet, the trend is toward the light returning, and if you can’t see it with your eyes you can certainly feel it in your psyche and your soul. What is your mindset now, in full winter? Are you sensing a return to well-being, as the sun returns, even if invisibly at first, to the world?
