The New Moon in Libra
Greetings from our Farm in the Cowichan Valley.
What a spectacular Autumn we have had on Vancouver Island. Sunny days,
warm temperatures and an extended growing season. We are still being
nourished with Broccoli, squash and Purple Potatoes from our Gardens. The
Chantrelle Mushrooms are starting to appear with this last much needed
rain too....
With the shorter days, and longer nights this is a time of
introspection and internal cleansing. As we prepare for another winter in
Baja, wonderful memories of an enriching season in Tofino and the many
amazing people we communed with fill us with gratitude.
Many THANK YOUS to all that participated in our Summer Season. Our
2007 dates will be posted by late December. We will continue to offer our
ever popular Women's Yoga and Surf Retreats as well as our Co-Ed
Illumination Retreat....stay tuned for more details.
Tonight the New Moon will be in Libra....ruling Love and
Relationships...LET LOVE RULE!!!
This Winter, there are many exciting offerings from Milagro Retreats
and our wonderful community. Grab a Chai, Grab your Lover, sit back and
imagine the possibilities as you read on....
