What's the opposite of a Pisces Season dream challenge?
Pisces Season Begins - Get your Witch Guide Inside
Is anybody else feeling tired? Pisces season has arrived and it’s all about restoring our energy and inspiration. Scroll down to find out how… and get this month’s Pisces Season Witch Guide.
On my walk this morning I had the idea that I wanted to focus our Pisces Season Witch Guide on dreams.
My sleep has been troubled lately; I’ve been waking up tired. Often, my impulse is to create things for you that I want to receive myself. Hence the idea to focus this month’s Witch Guide on sleep, rejuvenation, restoration, and dreams.
Initially, I thought I’d call it: the Pisces Season Dream Challenge.
But then I thought, “ugh, I don’t want to be challenged.” I’m challenged enough right now! When I went to look up antonyms to challenge I found some great ones:
Acceptance. Ease. Contentedness. Quiet.
All these sound delightful to me in their way right now.
For a moment, I wanted to go with Easy Task, because the idea of ease sounds so tempting to me right now. But I didn’t want to add more tasks to my – or your – agenda.
In the end, I decided to go with…
…Cherry Pie.
Welcome to your Pisces Season Cherry Pie witch guide.
Cherry Pie is delicious. Eating it is not a task. We don’t resign ourselves to eating cherry pie. It’s a delight!
Like cherries and pies, I want this Pisces Season Witch Guide to be something we revel in and enjoy together.
Cherry pie is a kindness we give to ourselves and share with our loved ones. Let Pisces Season be that delicious for all of us.
Remember that the main gist of what we’re doing this month is focusing on our literal sleep and dream life.
If you follow me, I know you’re active in your life creating a more beautiful, just, ecologically vital world. The stakes keep getting higher, and we are growing ever more pressured and anxious. There’s so much to do!
Sleep is vital to our capacity to create refuges, to staying with the trouble instead of running from it, and grow our gardens of refuge and resistance into promising new futures.
I read an article today in the Guardian talking about this study of people’s dreams during the rise of fascism in Germany in the late 1930s. Ordinary people’s dreams, shop owners, butchers…
A surprising, poignant number of [their dreams] were about people dreaming that it was forbidden to dream, then freaking out in the dream because they knew they were illegitimately dreaming.
It feels so crucial to keep our dreams alive right now. To tend to each others dreams. To make sure the conditions for dreaming remain possible.
Let’s do an experiment together this month and see what inspiration finds us if we really show up for sleep and dreams for one month.
While I wouldn’t exactly argue that “rest is resistance,” I would say that:
Rest feeds resistance.
I’m going to feed your sleepy self some witchy cherry pie in this month’s Pisces Season witch guide. May you wake up rested next month in Aries Season ready to kick some fascist butt. See below!
Love,
Amanda
