What Basswood Hollow says about the January 16 birthday

You grow downward before you grow up, and that is why you rarely topple. Winter is your season of quiet accumulation. Decisions feel safer to you when they are slow, so honor that pace instead of apologizing for it. Connect through shared work rather than shared talk. Make something with your hands. Rest in a warm corner and let the short daylight do its patient work.
