Dance with a Limp

From the Buckland Romani Tarot, Death; from the Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards, Sacred Herbs:

Eventually, everything goes away.

― Elizabeth Gilbert

Winter is a season that shows us how to let go, rest and weep for what we've lost that once gave us a sense of security and brightened our days. Form becomes formless energy, which does not die but exists in new ways. Sacred Herbs suggest we find rituals to accept and heal this emptiness and numbness we're left with, a process that will happen on our own timetable. As Anne Lamott wrote, "It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp."
