Ep 240 - Nature’s Shadows, Outlines of Love

In winter’s long light, shadows reveal more than darkness—they outline memory, love, and quiet hope. Mary reflects on Groundhog Day, Peter Pan’s lost shadow, Jung’s shadow self, and the beauty of moonlit snow, weaving garden wisdom with personal healing. From plant care to letting go, this episode explores how light and shadow together shape resilience, reminding us that even in sorrow, hope gently walks beside us. Link to the Companion Blog Post: Nature’s Shadows: Outlines of Love & HopeThanks for tuning in!Related Podcast you’ll enjoy: Ep 192 Groundhog Day - Ancient Origin and AccuracyEp 123 Keeping Lighting Pollinator-FriendlyEp 84 Winter Season of Growth8888I'd love to hear your garden and nature stories, as well as your thoughts on topics for future podcast episodes.
