Rauhnacht 4: April, Curiosity and Learning
April is changeable and playful, and so is the fourth night. It asks what you would like to learn, try or simply find out. Not because you should, but because curiosity keeps a mind young. Nebu is nine thousand years old and still asks questions at breakfast.
Think of the things that make you lean in: a skill, a place, a subject, a craft. You do not need a grand plan. One small curious step is enough, like a book, a class or a walk you have never taken.
🕯️ Tonight’s ritual
Write down three things you are curious about, however silly they seem. Pick the one that makes you smile most and plan a tiny first step for January. A single library visit counts.
✍️ Question for your notebook
What would I try if I were sure nobody would judge the result?
