Springtime energy can entice us to take on new projects and quickly fill our social calendars. We can easily get swept away with the fullness of the season and forget to focus our energy with intention. This May our growth is supported by two full moons. The Flower Moon, which occurred on 5/1, guides us toward expansion. The Blue Moon, happening on 5/31, calls us to refine our vision and decide what we want to carry into the next cycle. Rather than trying to do it all this spring, consider pouring your energy toward one thing that’s calling for your attention. With a little focus, you may grow something truly beautiful this season!
