Love your questions. I start again attempting to balancing my life with adult “kids” and writing about my life. My notes about being in the convent and the KKK encounters, could be a movie.
I have had the same rituals at New Year's Eve/Day for many years. During the last week of the year, I create an evolving journal entry called "the year in review." I reread the Chronicles of Narnia, and The Gift of the Deer by Helen Hoover. If possible, on New Year's Eve, I walk a beautiful labyrinth etched into the sanctuary floor of a nearby Episcopal church. As I walk in, I reflect on the word I've chosen for the coming year. Sometimes, in the center of the labyrinth, a different word appears, and I've learned to trust that, and walk out of the labyrinth with the new word instead. On New Year's Day I do a Tarot reading for the year. I choose two cards from the Sams/Carson Medicine Cards deck to explore a balance of energy needed in the upcoming year. I do a numerology reading for the coming year. Sometime during that day, I visit Mother Ocean, offer thanks, and set an intention of trying to trust whatever comes. I'll let you know how that works this year!
