Absolutely beautiful! As a retired teacher, I see the seed in the soul. As a gardener, I see the soul in the earth.

Oh I just loved this. Seed energy as unformed potentiality. Once planted, once the intention is made, the potential does its magic!

Yes, the seed is a potent symbol of unformed potentiality, and it is magic in its own way.

Yes we are! But what will be the effect of the light and dark in our lives on how we grow? A deep thing to ponder.
