In winter     all the singing is in          the In winter

    all the singing is in

         the tops of the trees

             where the wind-bird

with its white eyes

    shoves and pushes

         among the branches.

             Like any of us

he wants to go to sleep,

    but he's restless—

         he has an idea,

             and slowly it unfolds

from under his beating wings

    as long as he stays awake.

         But his big, round music, after all,

             is too breathy to last.

So, it's over.

    In the pine-crown

         he makes his nest,

             he's done all he can.

I don't know the name of this bird,

    I only imagine his glittering beak

         tucked in a white wing

             while the clouds—

which he has summoned

    from the north—

         which he has taught

             to be mild, and silent—

thicken, and begin to fall

    into the world below

         like stars, or the feathers

               of some unimaginable bird

that loves us,

    that is asleep now, and silent—

         that has turned itself

             into snow.

Mary Oliver

Though the Roman calendar tells us this is the New Year, if we follow the beat of our ancient memories, we remember Nature's reverberance, the cycle of agricultural feasts which showed the way... if you're feeling still restful, still dream-like, resisting starting anew emphatically, it is because your cells and bones recall that this New Roman Year was manufactured, and the Old Ways discarded. So follow your own flow, dear Wise One, that which honors inner desire.
If you've read The Dark Pool series, you'll know w If you've read The Dark Pool series, you'll know what happened at the end of book 3,  The Wilderness Years.  Lately, Dagr has been sending whispers through the ether for a prologue to continue the story.

This year, I am working with the talented @breathwords for new covers, the  prologue and other exciting additions. 

I am also considering a map of the travels Dagr, Arinn, Brigida and Richard took through the Fifteenth Century. I was inspired by the map in @rylokinn
dark fantasy series The Dragon's Flute!

The Dark Pool is beginning it's new incarnation as 2026, Universal Year 1 unfolds, and with it more magical fantasy as the characters you love reunite in the prologue.

We are cyclical creatures along with the rhythm of We are cyclical creatures along with the rhythm of the seasons, the movement of the cosmos, the passing of days into nights. Numerology honors the natural cycle of Universal Years under the potency of the number 9. 2025 was the 9th year - a culmination of our experiences, intentions and taken actions which defined our growth over time. In 2026 we begin again, just like at a new moon or when Aries opens another astrological year. The Number 1 infuses a portal held deep within our bones, we unfurl and open to the new cycle. Each year in this 9ness has its own purpose, pay close attention to years 3, 6 and 9. As we begin with Year One, foundations are set... be intentional, be clear, direct your future through gratitude. 

You may want to use an online calculator to reconnect with your heart's desire otherwise known as the soul urge number, which is an important piece of remembering your incarnated intention. 
I've outlined this little guide for 2026. Blessed be!

2026 dreams are soft and restorative, grounded in 2026 dreams are soft and restorative, grounded in what's truly real.

Just the sun and the moon and the stars over me,
Just the wind and the rain and the earth under my feet
Just the howl of a coyote and the flash of a hawk
Just the passing of night into day into night

There is a depth awakening this moon in the heart. There is a depth awakening this moon in the heart. A silence that beckons the soul. Heed the oracle, whispers the moon, your inner light is the healing we seek.
