The Greenman of Spring





Welcome Spring! After a long Winter finally seeing the lacy green leaves emerging from the buds on the trees is like a breath of fresh air. The Spring rains are invigorating the land and the plants springing forth from it after their seasonal dormancy under the blanket of snow that is Canadian Winter. Out from under this quilt that covers the earth emerges the Spring Greenman, mischief in his eyes already as he rubs away the sleep of Winter. Cloaked in the buds of spring and new life, garlands of fresh lucid green fronds and damp roots drinking in the Spring rains  he steps forth and begins a dance of seduction, mystery and love with the Lady of the Land. Magick is afoot and new beginnings are all around us. Dance with beautiful abandon and let new growth work it's magick in each new breath you take. Wishing you all the blessings of Spring.
