Pagan Eye: Winter Cherry Blossom on a Daily Walk

This cherry tree blossoming in January caught my eye while walking around my town looking at street art the other day, so I photographed it too. It was a bright, sunny day and the sight of new life returning lifted my spirits as much as anything. It is easy to think that this time of year is devoid of flowers, but it isn't true. You just have to look a little harder than in the spring or summer. In the past I've blogged about other early flowering plants including yellow winter aconite, which is somewhat different from purple aconite - or monkshood - which blooms in summer or autumn. 

On each Pagan Eye post, I show a photo that I find interesting, with a few words about it. I'm not quite sure what I'll be including - it could be a seasonal image, a pagan site, an event, or just a pretty picture.

If you want to send me a photo for a Pagan Eye post, please email it to badwitch1234@gmail.com Let me know what the photo shows and whether you want your name mentioned or not. For copyright reasons, the photo must be one you have taken yourself and you must confirm that you are submitting it for A Bad Witch's Blog.
