THIS MONTH'S COLOUR
Deep Indigo Blue
Feeling: depth, movement, the courage to flow without forcing
Go Find Some Water and Just Watch It
Water never forces. It finds its way. It moves around what it cannot move through, and it keeps going
with a kind of quiet persistence that has something to teach all of us. A river does not arrive at the sea
by pushing harder. It simply keeps following the pull.
This month, we are going to spend time with water. A lake, a river, a creek, the ocean, even rain on a
window, whatever you have access to. And we are just going to watch. Watch how it moves. How it
catches light. How it goes around obstacles without fighting them. How it is always, always moving
somewhere.
There is something clarifying about watching water move. Something that settles the places in you
that have been gripping too hard.
Where might you be holding too tightly right now and what would it feel like to move around the
obstacle instead of against it?
Colour prompt:
July's colour is Deep Indigo Blue, the colour of deep water and evening sky and the lakeshore at
dusk. It is the colour of depth and quiet and the kind of courage that does not shout. Go looking for
every shade of blue-going-to-purple in the world around you.
