Dec 2021 Blog "The Light and 12/21/21"
/
Metaphysically December is a good time to look within, to find the courage to release and let go, to meditate and honor our individual traditions as we prepare for the New Year ahead.
The ancient Romans observed the month of December as a time to celebrate the goddess and/or god inside of us all. To hold as sacred our spirit and the gift of life. We open December with the celebration of Hanukkah which runs through 12/6/21. The festival of light.
We also have a New Moon and Solar Eclipse at 2:42 AM on 12/4/21. This will be the final eclipse of the Sagittarius-Gemini series that started back on June 5, 2020. Eclipses stir up the energy. Oh goodie! This ground-shifting moment on 12/4 is yet another invitation to be honest, open, and ready for curveballs. Because we have not had not experienced enough curve balls over the past 2 years, right? I know. This eclipse the intensity of the moment is amplified, underlining your motivation to recognize your truest emotions, stand in your sense of self, and take the initiative to move boldly down a whole new path.
It is another call for us to connect with our soul and ask why are we here in this very unique time on our planet? Maybe we are here at this moment to help each other navigate this experience. To uplift others, we must remain uplifted. Resonating in the higher frequencies, connected deeply to our soul through our practices of meditation, body movement, prayer or whatever your individual process or practice is. Each day we are being given a choice to – do we choose to live in the Light or the Dark? It is a choice, every single day. Are you adding to pain or bringing in joy? Are you projecting love or fear? Are you connecting deeply with your soul? Are you acting with self-respect and being a support to yourself and others? We are not alone. There is divine support all around us.
I follow several amazing astrologists, many of whom are speaking about this time between the Old Earth and the New Earth. For decades now, I have read many great metaphysical teachers including Eckhart Tolle who titled his book all the way back in 2005 “A New Earth”. It would seem it is arriving now or specifically in the time through 12/21/21 and early 2022. The key to any time of change is to remind ourselves to open our heart and remain connected to our soul. It is a time of metamorphic. Whatever we have been before is no more. I am reminding myself that I need to embrace the new and cannot move into the new (including 2022) while clinging to the old. This is such an incredible time of transition from 2021 to 2022. December arrives with this energy already flowing.
We move from the eclipse into the winter solstice on 12/21/21. Many of you may remember the 12/21/12 spiritual portal discussions. Well here we are 9 years later entering another new portal. This winter eclipse is especially potent from a sacred numerology perspective. Take some time to go within and set intentions around this date. You are the light. The light is within. Think about how you want to use that light.
The Winter Solstice celebrates the presence of Spirit and the power of faith and hope that our visions of the future will come into manifestation. In the middle of winter, we pray and hope that the light will return. Winter Solstice is not about having the light. It is about carrying hope and moving toward a vision that we will work to make a reality. It is a time of patience, like that of an expectant mother who can sense the spirit of the child within but must wait until the actual quickening that physical life is truly within her. We must wait in the darkness of Midwinter, and this is not easy for most of us who are not comfortable with the dark, silence, resting and dreaming. In the darkest part of the year when the days are shortest, Nature asks us to slow down, to be with loved ones, to listen rather than to speak. Under the ground the earth silently sleeps. Seeds rest in suspended animation, and the animals hibernate. In contrast, we humans rush frantically to shop, decorate and “celebrate”, stressing ourselves with activity when we really need to rest, dream and gather strength in our bodies for the coming season of renewal. Nature teaches us that resting, drawing inward for a time, is present in all living things. Rest is necessary for growth that comes later in the season. The Sun will return.” ~from Ruth Barret
We then move swiftly into Christmas and the New Year.

I have found these past almost 2 years to be a giant invitation to find joy in the smaller moments of life. To see the big in the small and the small in the big. Deeply embracing the moment whatever that might be. December and the joy of the Holiday season has always been the time of year for this. But perhaps now I understand it even more.
Consider ending 2021 by acknowledging just how much you have learned about love, freedom, problem-solving, and responsibility. Feel the love that surrounds you and let those who matter to you know how much you appreciate them. Love them for who they are instead of wishing they were somehow different. Allow December to be a very special time for home, family, romance, harmony, and beauty. The thing I find most helpful during this time is the knowledge that the light will return and to find ways where I can incorporate grounding and centering through my healers and being in nature. If I can help you ground and center, I am happy to do so. Please contact me for a session either virtual or in person.
Holiday Message: As I prepare to celebrate Christmas (which is my tradition) I am thoughtful about the year that was and the year that will be. 2021 was our 8th year of offering vibrational energy medicine both in person and virtually. I would like to thank each of you for your kind patronage and support. Like many small businesses the last two years have been very difficult. Without all of you and your support, Rose Healing would not exist. I so appreciate all of you. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Yule, Kwanzaa or whatever you celebrate.
Thank you for reading this. Happy Holidays!
