White new sheets

Today I changed my sheets. Such a simple and mundane act, but it gave me such joy.

Even if white is not a colour, but there is something so clean and illuminating in it.

Like opening a new page in your diary, fresh and full of potential. Like washing away the dark and murky.

In alchemy, white corresponds to the albedo stage, the washing, the purification after the burning. Not destruction, but refinement. The smoke has cleared. What remains is essence.

White can feel sterile if disconnected from life. But living white is luminous. It is snow reflecting the entire sky. It is sea foam dissolving back into the ocean. It is bone, salt, pearl.

There is something honest about white. It does not hide. Every shadow is visible against it. Every stain shows. That is why white asks integrity.

And while doing this small and subtle change into my resting space I was suprised by the feeling of expansion.

I’m ready for more space, more light and more clarity.

Feeling grateful of the sea, waves and luminous beauty of mundane everyday life wisdom.
