2011: Endings, Rebirths and New Beginnings


I have been noticing endings, rebirth and new beginnings in so many places lately that I thought I would write a bit about it. We are seeing themes everywhere of endings and new beginnings, one of the most obvious public reflections of this perhaps is the ending of the Oprah Winfrey Show and the beginning of her new and larger network OWN. Not a coincidence that it is all happening just at the cusp of 2012, one great cycle ending and another about to unfold. This is but one example. These movements and this energy of changes, endings and rebirths, can be seen at this momentous time just about everywhere.

For me, my hubby and I are moving from Colorado back to the East coast, the place of both our roots. It is full circle certainly for me who ventured away from New York City at age 31 back in the 1990s following my spiritual promptings that led me to the beautiful high desert of New Mexico. I lived there for 11 wonderful and transformative years, years in which I explored and lived so many dreams, came into my own in more than one area of my life, met and married my beloved husband, met a great Shaman who has influenced every day of my life since, played and created and healed and traveled through so many spaces, both wonderful and terribly hard, and had even built my first home there. Most importantly it also became the land of my greatest healing and my greatest awakening and education so far. It will always be my 'the home to my soul' on the planet. Though it was clearly time to leave the womb when I left. I felt that as soon as I landed there 15 years ago, and indeed, for the 2 years prior to that when I heard the Universe calling to my soul in a tall concrete building somewhere in NYC. - It was whispering "New Mexico, New Mexico."

That was many years ago now, but the journey I had there and indeed here in the West is about to come to closure. And I am truly reminiscing, celebrating, and releasing it all. It is time to again move forward.



So now after 4 1/2 more years in the West, this time in Colorado, it is finally,(and I do mean finally! we have had to wait on so many out-of-our-control things), it is finally time to make this next big move. And at the cusp of this change in cycles, it is truly a momentous time.

And so farewell to the old and hello to the new. Thank you chapter for all you have been. I now have another great chapter to live and unfold.

namaste

and peace, love and so many blessings to everyone experiencing these big inner and outer life shifts and long-time coming changes today. They may still be coming with a few labor pains as they have been for me, or maybe even alot of them, but it's all good, and it's all God.

namaste and happy blessed rebirth
see you from Maryland!!
