August is a month that invites us to prepare for a new cycle
August, month of heartbreak. Who has never heard this phrase? Is that so? The winter of August can also cause us this “disgust” but it also raises thought-provoking questions and gives you the opportunity to prepare to bloom in spring.
The winter of July is over and he has invited us for a chat. The seventh month of the year speaks of the time to wait and to accept. Sometimes it can happen that the person is afraid of letting go, of getting in touch with their sadness and melancholy.
In the winter of August, it is time to discover that the mad dogs are, in fact, the howls that you have not released to the wind, they are the private shivers that the rigidity of certainties does not allow you to face. The month of August has a lot to teach us, then.
August winter is time to prepare for spring
In Chinese medicine, we see that there are transitional moments when plants, animals and of course we humans feel. This moment is related to winter, which in turn brings out some emotions, such as sadness and attachment.
A reflection for you: after several problems experienced in the Covid-19 pandemic, are you managing to bring about the changes that winter requires? The winter of August is the cradle of the coldest season of the year, when the seeds sleep and wait for their time to germinate.
August is when nature visibly translates the time of transformations, transmutations, modifications. The eighth month of the year tells us:
- Change it
- to accept
- To share
Take advantage of the winter of August to distribute more affection, as winter is a welcoming and welcoming time to let yourself go.
Letting go and letting go can hurt and hurt a lot. It hurts because you have to give up, sometimes, what you love. So we think pain is mental. But it’s not pain, it’s suffering. What makes us suffer is the fear fueled by the ego, by the deep-rooted belief of possible loss, of a possession that does not exist, that is not real.
Letting go is the theme of the August winter
We can’t own anyone. Our parents, our friends or our partner do not belong to us. Our children do not belong to us.
They are free and independent beings, with their own way to go, just like us. And that’s why we shouldn’t subjugate the happiness of others. Also, it’s important to understand that if you’re not happy alone, you’re unlikely to be happy with anyone.
Attachment is the controller of all times, the one that anchors you in an absent present. But detachment keeps you in the here and now, frees you to know whatever happens, ALL IS PERFECT.
“True happiness” is not in the places we can walk, but within each of us. There is no happiness in our heart if we still need the other to be happy, because being happy is not tied to anything or anyone. Only those who live August well are worthy of spring!
Tips for enjoying the winter of August and preparing for spring
Even though winter is a period of hibernation, we need more efficient internal movements. So, here are some tips for enjoying the August winter and getting ready for spring:
Ginger tea
Ginger tea can help you move internally. This is because this drink increases energy and blood flow, helps expel energies in disharmony and rebalances your internal and external environment. Orientation and take 300ml of tea throughout the day, until 6pm.
foot bath regularly
The use of foot baths, in addition to being a wonderful moment of relaxation, also promotes balance in the energy movement in all organs, energy channels and energy centers.
It is recommended to use:
- a bucket or basin with hot water (temperatures between 25 and 30 degrees)
- 3 tablespoons of fine or coarse salt for every 3 liters of water.
- You can add ready-made salts or foot bath products with herbs and oils.
floral
Some flowers speak of letting go and letting go. In Bach’s line, chicory is an option.
Among the flowers of the Shen-zi line, the use of metal is fundamental for detachment to occur with “well-being”.
detachment meditations
Some meditation practices can help a lot in the process of letting go and preparing to blossom.
Other important factors relate to the progress of your environment. A great tip is to practice Feng Shui to facilitate flow and detachment, in this article here.
the power of stones
We know that some objects and stones can be used to facilitate the process of letting go, hence the specialist Simone Kobayashi this advice will help you. But remember that what really works is putting it into practice by your intention.
- Amethyst: it is known as “the soul stone” for sending its message to this level of existence. This stone helps comfort those facing the transition from real or symbolic death. Amethyst modulates mental frequency to higher states of thought, so it is often used to relieve mental tension and excesses.
- Fluorite: the most suitable for moving from one cycle to another, accepting changes and differences. As it contains several colorful levels, it relates well to changes, especially mental ones. It contains elements that eliminate impurities, rancidity and past patterns in order to achieve internal transformation.
You can use them together or separately, in meditation or just be with them and breathe, connecting with their vibrations and symbolism.
Also, you can place them in places you look and remember what they wear as a feature, or in accessories to keep close to the body for a few days.
Realize your moment, don’t focus on what you want, but on what you need. Also, respecting your time is very important. August, in particular, has an enormous affinity with Time and respect for inner silence.
The month of August no longer needs to be viewed with a look of disgust. How about you think you have the real opportunity to change this month.
