For those who have been following me, remember the New Moon on December 18 and how we were being called to write down our reflections for 2017 and then invited to make a dream list for 2018?
Well, the first Full Moon of the year, also known as the Wolf Moon, will be on January 1st for North America and the 2nd for Europe and the UK. This is exciting because it's also a Supermoon with the Moon being at its closest point to the earth, making the Full Moon brighter and larger.
It's the perfect time to do our New Year's readings, keeping in mind the new things we envisioned or dreamed of during the New Moon on December 18. Don't worry if you didn't do it yet. Now would be a great time to take an inventory of our lives and see where we are and where we need to be going on our personal journey.
If this past year has been a challenging one, we can gather strength and determination to do better in the coming year. If this past year has been a good one, we can use this time to determine how to carry our blessings and abundance forward with us.
To help us with this, let's do a reading. This is a general reading meant for anyone who will be watching this Facebook Live video... Personal readings would be more specific to our own life's journey.
Today I'll be using Colette Baron-Reid's "The Good Tarot" card deck, and asking 4 questions.
What do we need to carry with us from 2017 into 2018?
#18 Moon - Illusion
We may not see the working of Spirit in the invisible realms, but we know there is great activity "behind the scenes." It's important to trust the mystery and remember that current conditions are not necessarily a reflection of the truth of what's really going on in the present. Great opportunities lie in the shadows, awaiting the perfect time for illumination.
What do we need to do this year that we did not do in 2017?
#10 Fortune's Wheel - Destiny meets synchronicity
Be in awe to experience many meaningful coincidences that prove to us that Spirit has our back! These lucky breaks, and moments when things just turn out perfectly, show how we're all connected. We need to trust our co-creative partnership with Spirit.
What do we need to let go of this year that we clung to so tightly in 2017?
King of Earth
We need to let go of our attachment to outcomes, letting go of our need to shape each moment to our expectations, knowing that what is ours will never be withheld from us. We have trust and faith in the invisible and know it will manifest in the realm of form the way we need it to. In other words, the trick is to connect to the essence of our goals and aspirations, really feel them, while letting the form and timing be dictated by Spirit.
What do we need to change in our lives?
5 of Fire
This is about creative brainstorming, unity in diversity, honoring differences.
We have the freedom to explore the ideas that seem the most far-fetched. What seems crazy today proves tomorrow to be brilliant. Like a child willing to stretch her imagination when a new playmate comes into the garden, we open ourselves to new people and ideas, intrigued by what is novel and unfamiliar. This is a time for what is counterintuitive, for appreciating the ideas from out in left field and what they might offer.
Now, imagine that all your loved ones, your spirit guides, angel guides, God, Spirit...all those in the invisible world that love you, have written you a postcard! As a special gift, I pulled a card from Colette Baron-Reid's newest deck, "Postcards from Spirit", asking, "What do you want us to know as we move from 2017 to 2018?" We have been gifted with...
the same card that we were given last week... (and yes, I did shuffle the deck really well <G>)
You Are Not Alone...
"Dear, dear You,
It might be hard to believe you'll ever get to where you want to go, feel the way you want to feel, and find peace and security - but you can. There's lots to celebrate in this life, but first you need to let go of this attachment to achieving certain results. It is easy to get caught in the endless loop of wanting this or that so you can feel safe. The only way out is to surrender the attachment. Empty yourself so you can be filled with something new. The compulsion will be lifted and peace will come! Trust that something better waits, that something new will open up and you will see new opportunities for fulfillment. The truth is whenever you get into the loop, what you are really looking for is Spirit. That connection is where the power, the peace, and the purpose lies - everything else follows after that. Give yourself a hug. We've got you.
Loving you so, so much..."
The messages this week are very interesting, especially with how they are all connected...trust that Spirit and all those who love us are working behind the scenes in the invisible realm, working for our highest good. We need to surrender, letting go of any attachments or expectations, trusting that Spirit has our back. We are being encouraged to trust our co-creative partnership with Spirit, and to connect to the essence of our goals and aspirations, really feel them, while letting the form and timing be dictated by Spirit. We are not alone. We are being invited to open ourselves to new people and ideas, to be intrigued by what is novel and unfamiliar. This is a time for what is counterintuitive, for appreciating the ideas from out in left field and what they might offer. With Spirit, all things are possible!
Just before I go...
Colette's oracle cards are not used to predict the future. They are a tool to communicate directly with Spirit and to help us grow spiritually, giving us guidance and direction.

And I have a favour to ask...
If there is anyone that you know who we can help with today's reading, please be sure to share it with them. We never know the difference that we can make in someone's life by a simple act of kindness.
Thank you for listening.
May the new year bring you an abundance of love, blessings, positive changes, everything that your heart desires and whatever makes your soul sing. May it open doors to your greatest dreams. Expect miracles!
Talk to you soon.
'Bye!
