PLANTING NEW SEEDS OF POTENTIAL
GUEST EDITORIAL BY MAGGIE EROTOKRITOU
There are voices that gently guide us inward—toward presence, healing, and the slow unfolding of truth. For over three decades, Maggie Erotokritou has walked the path of conscious transformation, drawing from a wide spectrum of healing traditions and vibrational medicine to offer insight, clarity, and care. As a visionary, intuitive healer, spiritual mentor, and Ayurvedic and Feng Shui consultant, her work is rooted in awakening—both personal and collective. In her first editorial for Istorja, Maggie writes about the ritual of spring: the inner clearing, the subtle realignment, and the power of planting new seeds—intentionally, tenderly, and in rhythm with the turning of the season.
It’s always exciting to step into the fresh, vibrant energy of spring, and a new cycle of growth, regeneration and transformation.
In our recent workshops at Istorja, Spring, A Time of Awakening and a 1 day Spring Equinox Meditation Retreat at Casale Panayiotou, we tuned into the energy of spring, and what new seeds of possibilities and potential we want to sow and how ro prepare for what we want to call in, as we release old habits, limitations and any stagnant energy that no longer serve us.
It begins with clearing your space, both inner and outer, so as to create fertile ground and what we plant now needs to be nurtured and nourished in order to gain the results we desire. You have to be committed to your own process of growth and transformation to attain your desired outcome and set a clear foundation to work from as you cultivate a new way of being that can be crystal clear when you are well balanced, harmonious and peaceful.
The upcoming New Moon partial eclipse tomorrow ends the eclipse passageway that we have been in for the last two weeks, which may have felt restrictive and will open us with the opportunity to expand and gain new perspectives as we pay attention, refresh and finetune as we move into this new cycle of growth, creativity, inspiration and flow and align with the abundant, flourishing gifts that the new season brings.
