To celebrate the Winter Solstice I’m doing something a bit different for the month of December on this new podcast.
Inspired by the German Adventkranz I’m going to be sharing a Winter Solstice Advent episode in the three Sundays leading up to the solstice with a final, gift of an episode released on the 21 December.
Each episode will share moments of wonder from the four alchemical elements:
- Earth - 1 December
- Water - 8 December
- Air/Sky - 15 December
- Fire - 21 December
-
Today’s second Solstice Advent episode is all about water and the wisdom we can learn from the many forms of water in winter from crystalline snowflakes and the ubiquitous rain.
You’ll journey with me into my local park and woodland in voice notes filled with science stories on:
- The delicate, unique structures of snowflakes
- The powerful rage of winter rain, storms and floods
Each one is a reminder that the small roles we are given in our western society are made up and that there are a million different ways to exist and be on this Earth. In that sense these moments of wonder are a gentle act of resistance.
