Today is the eve of a new year. 🥳 And while any day can be New Year’s Day, we humans reach a consensus on at least one thing today.
Everyone agrees it’s time to start fresh on the 1st of January.
My birthday 🎂 is between Christmas and the New Year, so it adds extra emphasis. I spend time reflecting and setting intentions for my next trip around the sun.
In the process, I review what’s happened in the most recent year, but I don’t stop there. I look back further for a theme that has been repeated for several years.
Numerology uses nine-year cycles, while Oriental Medicine uses seven-year cycles. Nine seems to correlate better with my experiences but the important thing to know is that there are phases or cycles of life that often extend beyond just a year or two.
When you’re pausing ⏸️ for reflection to set a theme or intention for the coming year, take the experiences from the last few years into account.
It’s been a wild ride for all of us on planet Earth since early 2020.🌎 You may feel like there are some situations that worked during a crisis … but it’s time to distance yourself from them.
The new year is as good a time as any.
What action can you take to make it clear to yourself … and the universal forces that keep the world turning … that 2024 is your year?
A bit of time with your journal will provide the answer to that question.
And, remember, I get you and I’ve got you. One of the easiest ways to get my help is to join MOLT. You can find out more here.↩️
Happy New Year]
