A Chorus of Robins
I woke to a chorus of Robins this week.
Although Robins don't usually migrate here any more, they stay the winter, it still seemed to be a sign of Spring. Mind you it snowed, hailed and rained today, so no one can be sure what season we are in anyway!
But really, although Winter was bitter, it seems that just as quickly as Winter had descended on us that things seemed to switch over to Spring just as suddenly, with just these few setbacks like today. The Sun is stronger, the light brighter and the cold not as harsh. There is definitely a sense of Spring in the air. And the Spring Equinox is just a few days away.
That being said, we know that Spring is a time of cleansing. Already I have been incorporating more vegetables and fruits, rather than just comfort food. Time to release toxins, both physically and mentally. For a full account of Spring cleansing and the foods and customs associated with Spring, please see my earlier posts on Spring and well being.
After a long winter, there is nothing like Spring.
