Wind

Wind is spirit made active. The Hebrew ruach and the Greek pneuma both mean breath and wind and spirit; the Biblical image of Pentecost sends the Spirit as a rushing wind. Many Indigenous traditions treat the four directions’ winds as distinct teachers, each with its own medicine. Jungian analysis reads wind-dreams as the Self moving — an impersonal force asking the ego to yield or to align. A strong wind in a dream often precedes a real change. Notice which direction the wind comes from, whether it carries seeds or dust, and whether you lean into it or brace against it.
