Winter is the darkest season of the year. While darkness is often seen as burdensome, it is rich with gifts necessary for those on a spiritual path. In this video, herbalist Ashley Elenbaas and director of UrbanDevi, Rukmini Walker, take a deep dive into the dark and fertile caves of winter and darkness and how we can get the most out of this season. Plants such as Angelica, Mugwort,  and Pine are explored as plant allies to help guide the work of deep winter dreaming and bringing our consciousness of light into these dark spaces. We hope you enjoy this conversation and invite you to share your comments, questions, and insights below!
