Originally offered as a live-stream to usher in the Wood Season, also known as the Spring, according to ancient Chinese traditions, the wisdoms and rituals shared in this pre-recorded e-course can be practiced and observed at any point of the year, especially when one is working with the Wood Element as an ally, or if one is navigating a Wood phase in their life.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens on Spring Equinox, and how to honour the Spring Equinox, it’s a time where the cycles renew, and an occasion to celebrate the Wood Element’s return. The Wood Element is long found in the mythological, cosmological, and magical traditions that is found in Taoism (also spelled as Daoism). Wood is the phase that corresponds with the Spring season, the direction of the East, the planet Jupiter, and the Liver organ since Wood speaks about re-emergence, mobility, and new perspectives. Mimi Young, animist spirit medium shares how to approach and relate with the Wood Element as an ally and without the distortions of a hyper-productive society, through these key Wood wisdoms that is foundational to Chinese astrology and the I Ching.
Rooting to Rise – Wood’s archetype is the Sacred Fool. Wood invites us to step into literal and metaphorical wilderness, to step into new ground, embrace the unfamiliar, and play with experimentation and adventure, all while remaining rooted in our ancestral connections, and devoted in our spiritual practices.
Body Awe – Wood invites us to honour our emotions through movement rather than reflection alone, embracing the potencies and pace of our muscles, our bones, and our skin.
Following the Tao – Wood invites us to not rely on anxiety, stress, or anger alone to get work done, but instead, to follow the winds of the Cosmic Life Force, the Tao. In addition to this, by relating with the Liver in ways the organ truly desires, we can honour our voice, limitations, and frustrations in a way that can prompt creativity and heart-felt inner drives.
Through sympathetic magic, listeners can learn and follow along how to cast animist spells and ritualized practices that conjure and reflect the energies of Wood.
Participants have noted how the course has helped them:
Regained clarity and joy as they navigate new starts and transitions, after the literal and symbolic season of Winter
Gained practical clarity for their situation or next steps
Grew a deepened animist connection with this Element
Embraced the Spring in a paced manner that honours oneself
Renewed into a vivid authenticity, moving from the perspective of time as terror (“I should”) to honouring our unique, innate rhythms (“I want” and “I am”).
Became more comfortable with experimentation instead of staying in stale but familiar spaces
Enhanced greater intuition and psychic skills, and harnessing the mood-affecting properties of Earth’s position with the Sun.
