Today I am celebrating another Solar Return, birth day, start of my personal new year, etc.
It is kind of a milestone - I am 45. I am a few short years from outliving my own mother. That is a scary point to reach for Motherless Daughters.
Last year, was filled with many highs and lows. In the Spring, I married my true soul mate, the Yang to my Yin. In the Summer, I began to deal with some serious health issues & lost my grandfather. In the Autumn, we bought a house & began that new chapter in our lives. In the Winter, business plans were being planted & in my personal life, things leveled out & we began to relax into our Life & new found community. Now, I am working on creating my own road map for this year, waiting for major surgery to be scheduled & continuing the difficult work of grieving & growing.
As I stand here at the threshold of my new year, it is amazingly the first in many which is actually filled with Love, support, family (both by blood & by choice), and multiple safety nets. I have never been more prepared and more scared to walk the next section of my Life’s Journey than I am today. I am giving reflection to my past & re-examining the choices which helped me arrive where I am now. I believe it is healthy to keep in touch with our roots & carry through the doorways of Life the tools which serve us & provide us what we truly need on each new leg of our Life’s Journey. So, I take take stock of what I need, feel all the hands in mind, shine with my inner Light, take a deep cleansing breath AND walk confidently through the open door the Universe has presented me with today.
