Inspired by The Neopagan priestess I've decided to share my word for
2014. Perhaps when I write about it, this word will become even more real to
me. Kerry has even made a beautiful picture of her word. The word that came up
for me the lasts weeks of December was: Listen. I've made a mind map with it and
these are some of the associations I've’ve come up with:

| Angel Tarot |
Listen to the silence; listen to nature, listen to the whispers between the words I hear.
Listen to my body; what do I feel ,what do I need, what is good and healthy for me.
Listen to my boundaries, which are there for my own protection and wellbeing
Perhaps
I will make some kind of talisman to remember my word by. My animal for now is the
hare. I suspect it can teach me a lot about listening. J
For
today I've drawn The Eight of Fire from the Angel Tarot. A gorgeous card with crystal
wands carried by sparkling dragons. The annotation tells us: Events moving at a fast pace. Delays are over. Many
Things are happening at once. I am still feeling like I am in a hurry. I
want too many things at once. I feel excited about all the projects I am
planning and my goals and resolutions ……and so on. This card
combined with my word is telling me to choose a wand and work with it and to
calm down. Listen to myself and determine what is good for me now. I have to be
the mature about it. Only then I will be able to enjoy all my wands even more.
That's a lovely word, and a poetic way of describing what it means to you! Good luck listening to that voice, choosing your wand, and hurrying slowly, one wand at a time :D
ReplyDeleteThat is a sound advice: "One wand at the time" :D
DeleteYou and Kerry have made me think about what word I might take into 2014, and I think it might be "Relax." Not in the sense of becoming a couch potato, but in doing the work and allowing things to play out without expectations and attachments. And also in realizing I can't do something about everything (no matter how much I love the person); there is much I have no control over, and I need to relax and let things play out without me trying to force my will on them.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it lovely how we can inspire each other by writing these blog posts!
DeleteRelax is a great word. I hope it will be a wonderful guide for this year
hugs
I love this post. A word for the year is actually a new concept for me. I chose Fruition. I like Listen a lot though ^_^
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteIt is for me too. I've never picked a word or the year before. It feels like the word has found me instead of the other way around :D
I like Fruition too.Perhaps next year???
Listen is a great word, and somehow, it seems so like you. :) x
ReplyDeleteI think it does.:)
