Embracing Black as Part of the Whole
In many spiritual traditions, black is not just a color of fear but also a symbol of potential and protection—a womb of creativity and new beginnings. When we learn to sit with our fears and burdens, we allow ourselves to transform and grow stronger.
Instead of fearing black, we can embrace it as part of our emotional spectrum—honoring the shadows as much as the light.
