At 4:42pm this afternoon we have another New Moon – and another chance to pick a facet and devote some intent attention to it.
This past lunar cycle I focused on Balance – and through it, I wrote that “finding Balance in the dark will involve a lot of acceptance. I can’t fix everything, I can’t keep everyone happy all the time, I can’t do everything right.” I came to understand in these past days and weeks that making those kinds of choices does come with a cost, but part of the process is weighing cost versus benefit – again, another example of balance. Overall, I think I’ve been doing well – and despite some disappointments, I do feel healthier.
So now as we enter the Year of the Rat, I’m going to take Balance to the next level and move to Curation. This act of Curation is much like the cycles of the moon herself – there are times when we welcome the energies that resonate with our own, but there are also times when we need to let energies wane that no longer have a place. These energies can be personal, professional, musical, or spiritual. In many ways, the process of welcoming and releasing has already begun as part of the cycle of Balance, but now I am turning my awareness and intention to it.
There’s no song this month – but in honor of a work friend, I’m going to include an image they sent me today – further evidence that resonance can be found in unexpected places, we just need to remain open to it.
