Is everyone as excited about new calendars as I am? Of course, there won’t be resolutions. We’ve learned so much! And we now know that those are not necessarily productive, nor helpful.
New pages though, with beautiful views? All those hopes and possibilities? Absolutely.
That’s right what the Universe wants to remind us of today. We have so much to be grateful for and to look forward to. While at the same time being consciously here and present.
Imminent, and Now
One of my major lessons, as everyone is aware, has to do with letting go. It focuses on the power to NOT keep looking behind me. This message, of being present but also acknowledging the joy in our future, can be challenging.
Which is probably why it’s so important. It’s a process that I might need to sit with, and feel all the edges of. It’s also very promising, bringing inspiration, pulling us back to consciousness.
Reviewing the past year is not the goal, but absorbing what we learned there, that does have value. Finding the balance, that’ll be where we aim our mind and heart.
Standing amongst my cards, in front of our altar, here is where I was directed. This is a perfect draw, what with the current Mercury Retrograde we’re still involved with. I’m including both parts from the Guidebook.

“Details, Details ~ 43 ~
‘The most powerful patterns are created within the tiniest details.
Pay attention.’
Upright:
This is the time to be aware of the fine print in all areas of your life. Look at the details and leave the broad strokes for another time.
When this card appears in a reading, it is a sign to finesse a project, make small but meaningful gestures, or add a personal touch to your correspondence.
Be aware that what you need to know lies in the details. If you are entering into an agreement of any kind, pay attention to them before, not after, when it’s too late.
Clarity and transparency are key. You can gain great understanding by observing the minute body language, offhand remarks, and fleeting facial expressions that reveal the larger picture.
Reversed:
Heed the gentle warning that perfectionism will not lead you to what you desire, but instead will steer you way from it.
Nothing will be good enough when you become obsessed with being perfect. No one can ever measure up to your scrutiny, and nothing that you can ever do will assuage that general feeling of not being up to par.
You are perfect already, just as you are.
Reversed, the Details Details card challenges you to accept things as they are in all their imperfections – to step into the world and engage it without any expectations.
You are exactly where you’re supposed to be.”

Today’s Sharing:
is to say that tomorrow marks my 9th year here. Anniversaries for blogging seem to have fallen out of fashion. But really, when was I ever concerned with trends set by other people?
