Why are the seasons important to modern humans? Why have we lost our connection to seasonality? What does our disconnection mean for us and why does it matter? Our ancestors were intimately connected to the seasons and understood what each one brought for us. They prepared for and celebrated each one. Modern ‘civilisations’ have largely lost that connection and this has significant implications for our wellbeing and our long term survival. Learn about the seasons, the celebrations on the wheel of the year, and the importance for modern humans of reconnecting to their meaning.
