Wintering is a moment of intuition, our true needs felt keenly as a knife.

Wintering is a season in the cold. It is a fallow period in life when you’re cut off from the world, feeling rejected, sidelined, blocked from progress, or cast into the role of an outsider.

Winter is a time for hibernation, although few of us get to do that nowadays! I find that there is always a drive to sleep away the coldest months of the year, to retreat inside, both physically and mentally.
