Solstice Magic Assures Your New Years Success - and Abundance
by Cheryl Janecky
There’s no other time of the year quite like the Winter Holidays. There are many Winter traditions – some ancient -- and many still practiced today. All acknowledge the end of the year, and that a new year is dawning – and with it potential for great good fortune. Some pray, some plan, pledge and promise: This is the time of year to set new intentions and anticipate a prosperous future.
Winter Solstice is the most celebrated time of the year.
Cultures worldwide practice similar traditions: feasting, families gathering, and giving gifts. There’s a sense of a deeper meaning celebrated in religions, festivities, caroling, fireside storytelling and dancing. And everyone celebrates the New Year with pledges and promises for a bright future.
Winter is a time of planning and setting intentions.
Compiling several traditions shows that the actual “magical time” of year begins on about the New Moon on the 27th of November and ends about the New Moon on January 26th. That period is when you are “planting the seeds” for the kind of year that will grow into your 2009.
Winter is also a time of quiet and of personal revelations; and also of sharing and enjoying others – and the balance between the two.
How do you “plant the seeds” for your future?
Begin now at this potent time to actively create your future success - plant the “seed feelings” you want to grow into your life.
Law of Abundance matches up feelings or vibrations (not words and wishes) with matching experiences. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer.
If you are enjoying finding gifts and sharing your resources – you are planting “wealth”. If you are fussing and feeling stressed and broke – you are planting “poverty.”
Loving all the fun food and feeling good about your body weight and health? Good! You are planting a Healthy fit body…but if you are fussy and feeling fat – you’ll get more of that!
Enjoying balancing work, play and parties? Good! You’ll have all the time you need to do what you love. But if you are feeling stressed….well, you know the answer. Don’t do that!
Same with people: if you want joy-filled friendships, enjoy them during this potent time. No complaining and blaming because you don’t want more of that.
The key is to live RIGHT NOW as you want your year to become.
Hard to do? Think about it. It’s much harder to live in an entire year that is difficult, isn't it? After all – Solstice’s magic time is only 60 days…and YOU CAN FEEL GOOD for 2 months - how hard is that?
NOW is the time: A few facts and a little history reveal the potency available now - to help you achieve success.
There are some natural events that are so significant that all cultures throughout time have celebrated them collectively.
Solstice is such a time. It was celebrated at Stonehenge and in Celtic monuments spanning centuries. Also marked in stone by the Mayan, Egyptian, Anasazi, Aborigine, Aztec, Inca, and at Kula Lumpur….and back into time-out-of-mind in monuments and cultures we’ve long forgotten.
Most people celebrate “something” marking this time of passage: Christmas, Hanukkah, Deepavali (Duwalli), Kwanzaa, Festivals of Light, New Years and many others.
You are collectively marking the natural rhythms in nature and in your own body, like the seasons and your own circadian rhythms.
Solstice is the natural phenomenon behind the festivities.
Winter has the longest nights of the year and shortest days. Winter Solstice is the day the sun appears to, “stand still.” From December 21st, the days become longer and the nights shorter. Six months later, the procession north stops, turns, (Summer Solstice) and again moves to the Winter Solstice point. These are the natural rhythms that cultures mark with ceremonies.
This time is your deepest natural internal withdrawal – just as life “withdraws” within itself in nature. It’s a time to assess the years past and reflect on happenings and changes.
It’s a time of remembering all those that contributed to you being where you are now: Friends, places and events of your past. Think of it all as parts of the tapestry that is weaving around you as you journey through time. It’s often the most difficult and tumultuous times that give life color and depth. You certainly learned as much from your adversaries as from your friends.
Find the feelings of deep gratitude and stillness. Feel connected to everyone walking your life path with you, from the past, to the Now and into futures unknown. Feel right now what you want to feel in your future…and tradition assures that it will come to pass: Like magic.
Your Good Fortune for this time: “Giving and receiving are the same. You will soon receive back the gifts you give.”
