Happy Winter Solstice dear sisters. After the days grew shorter in the past weeks, we celebrate today the darkest day of the year – the beginning of winter and the time of dark feminine alchemy. It is a time of deep rest, quiet and hibernation. But the Winter solstice marks not only the darkest day of the year, it also marks a new era of light. Ancient pagan traditions celebrated the Winter solstice as the New Year, celebrating the solar return. From today onward, the days will grow longer again, bringing more light into the dark and reminding us of how one cannot exist without the other. Therefore the Winter Solstice teaches us that every ending is also a new beginning – it teaches us about the infinite and inevitable  cycles of death and rebirth.

And for this very special day, I am sharing an inspiring interview with the incredible artist, feminist, mentor and entrepreneur – Claudia Sahuquillo. Together we explore  the archetype of the wild woman as a force of nature. Claudia redefines today what a wild woman means to her, how she allows more softness to come forth in the way she embodies the wild woman and how she deals with the grief about old ways of being.
