New Year 2011 Blessing



In honor of the turning of the wheel and a new year about to be born, I decided to do a little something different. I was called to give a gift to the community.

I practice many forms of divination and particularly enjoy working with oracle cards. I always use readings on New Year's Eve to tap into the energy that will be coming in over the next 12 months. This year, I decided to do a reading for each member of the "Through Thick and Thin" community who is a believer in all things magical. The particular deck I worked with is "Wisdom of the Hidden Realms" and was created by, Collette Baron-Reid. If you enjoy divination, this is a stunning deck with captivating images. I highly recommend it. The guidance is always spot-on, deeply meaningful, and relevant.

If you are pulled to read this message, know this reading is meant for you and will be a theme for your life throughout 2011.

The Phoenix
resurrection, surrender to change

-Ally-

The Phoenix appears as your Ally to celebrate your journey and to ensure your ultimate success. This is true even if it appears that you've just passed through a metaphorical experience of death or are currently enduring a perception of failure in your life.

Death and rebirth are related when you enter the realm of the Phoenix. Seen in this light, nothing truly dies, but rather changes from one ending directly into new beginnings. The Phoenix is constantly reinventing itself and rises up whole and new and even more powerful with every death it experiences. This could signal an end of a relationship -or a dynamic within one- or an end of a job, a project, or even a life.

Perhaps no failure is involved, but it's time for a complete overhaul of your circumstances. You may be tired of what you're doing, or you may know intuitively that it's time to move on and try something new. Whatever the case, a death of the old and a celebration of the new are called for! Whatever you do now will indeed be a successful endeavor, for a rebirth is imminent!

Happy New Year! I wish each of you...

A shimmer of hope
A shine of belief
A glisten of happiness
The beauty of peace
And a touch of humor

~Blessed Be~
