Have you noticed how cycles happen in your life? Recently, I thought about my college years. I had three cycles going, and I did not realize this at the time. One was my college experience. The second was my first marriage. The third was—and is—a friendship with someone I consider to be my “sister from another mister.”
Cycles can yield a harvest.
(I guess the harvest of my first marriage was pain and wisdom. Enough about that!)
I have three insights for you.
- We don’t control when the harvest happens.
The Wheel of the Year includes cycles. Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall. Then the cycle repeats. Predictable.
Not so with human lives. Many times, we can’t predict when the harvest will happen.
Perhaps, a new job in the fall. Or a baby is born in the Summer.
Seeds are planted. But when will be the harvest? Will the job continue? Will there be a layoff?
We may influence when these things might happen, but we cannot predict when things will unfold.
Perhaps, a job ends. But a friend from years ago brings you a new opportunity. And, a new cycle begins.
Our process is to keep planting seeds.
- We need to tend the farm and show up every morning.
Even though we plant seeds, we don’t have a guarantee that things will blossom fast.
But you can show up every morning and tend to your fields.
Tend to your fields, or some opportunities may die.
You need to nurture your soil.
I know someone who makes wire jewelry. If she took a break of a year or two, she would lose her dexterity with this art form. She needs to “tend to her field” or practice her art.
- We need to nurture our own health to keep going.
“Let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honour and humility, mirth and reverence within you.” – The Goddess speaking in The Charge of the Goddess, as written by Doreen Valiente
Seeds are not the only things that need to be tended. We need to tend to ourselves, too.
Some seeds can take years to grow into something that can be harvested. I know writers who have written a number of books. They get better month after month. Richard Carlson, the late author of Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff, told my husband that the “Don’t Sweat” book was his 10th book.
We need to take care and nurture our own health. Why? Because if we get sick or injured, we lose the chance to enjoy our harvest.
As I get older, I see some people become feeble.
On the other hand, I know someone in his 60s who lifts weights every other day. He seeks to stay strong for as long as possible.
How about you? What would be a great harvest for you?
How are you keeping yourself healthy and strong?
May these insights support your path.
Blessed Be,
