I am one who is looking out to see what the future looks like. One who is warm inside even though it is really cold outside. I am one who is growing older and trying to look at my options for the rest of my life.

It is that time of year, to look forward to the place I want to be. The cold of winter has me bundled up inside with lots of time to think, look deep inside myself  and talk to my partner about plans for the future.

These are my first 3 Nights of Solstice Cards. I am getting a meditation by email from Cat Caracelo each of the Twelve Nights of Solstice. 

She invites us to put our thoughts and feelings into word or art. I am doing a SoulCollage card for each day. This has been a great thing for me to focus on. Although I haven't found all my art materials from the move!

If you are interested, you can go to catcaracelo.com for details.

No readings on these cards, just sharing cards.

I am one who hold life in my hand. One who is amazed and what the world has to offer to me. One who loves to be in the water, even if I have to share it with other species.

I love the ocean, being in it or walking along it. I missed our yearly trip and am missing being there. I find the ocean so meditative that I actually get up early to be the first one there.

We will have to find a good pine tree walk in the mountains here. Pine trees in the mountains are almost as good as the ocean.

I am the one who spent years looking away from the wise women in my life. One who heard them whispering to me about finding my spiritual path, my body image, and choosing the way I would live my path. One who would say to them, soon... soon.

Today I am struggling to find those wise women. Looking for my spiritual mentor. Hoping to hear the whispers again soon.

I am one who loves to be free to move as a dancer. One who would rather dance in an empty hall so no one can judge me. I am one who loves to see old building being well kept rather than new buildings in their place.

This card reminds me that I don't mind doing things on my own, but I prefer the company of a good friend who knows me well enough to not judge me for what I like to do.

I am one who is strong and fragile. One who likes to remember that even though glass is strong it is also fragile, just like feelings.

Today I feel fragile after the elections but strong that I let my voice be heard. I know I will need my strength to move past the choices my state made and live my life as I want it to be. Strong, compassionate and loyal.

I am one who is looking forward to seeing what I will find after the move. I am one who is sooo ready for a vacation near the water.

Today this card is telling me that all the hard work is worth it. I will have new adventures in my new city, with my best friend, my husband!

I am one who will be knocking on your door with a basket of flowers. I am one who will find you even if you are hiding. I am one who wants you to know that I am there for you. I am one who hopes that everyone I share my gifts with will feel the love I present to all in need.

The basket of flowers represents the gifts I have to help you on your way. I may show up with my flowers in person, phone, email, FB or through my prayers.

I am one who wants to be comfortable with herself. I am one who is looking for the place where I will be comfortable. One who know that it will take multiple factors to make be comfortable.

Today I have been doing data entry for Rod's business so we can do our taxes. The chair is comfortable and I am working on something I can FINISH. The rest of my life, not so much. It is good to feel comfortable where you are.

I am one who is moving to an new part of my life. One who is aware of the beauty, but unsure what I will find there.

I am focusing on the upcoming changes. I should be focused on what is going on in the here and now. There is lots to do and I can't afford to look too far ahead.

I am one who is reaching for the top, while the fox sits in contentment with what she has. I am one who dances around in my life, not caring what others think.

Reaching for the top right now is just going to wear me out. I need to remember to take time for myself and dance!
 

I am one who is willing to go great heights to get where I want to be. One who is cautious, but unafraid to take the step forward into my new space. One who is looking forward to what is to come and wishing there was a way to transport me there nos.

Today's card is telling me to continue to look forward to my next adventure, but to stay one task to get myself there. There is no easy way. Just work on what I have to do until it is done.

 

Here are the cards I have made over the last week or so. Enjoy!

I am one who enjoys being carefree and childlike. One who is willing to toss everything up and see where it lands.

In the next month there will be lots of tossing, mostly to a charity or the garage sale we will have next month.

With my son moving out I am motivated to really get started on my sorting and clearing.

I am one who enjoys relaxing with the colors of the world around me. I am one who needs to have some time in my favorite place so I can feel more at ease out in the world.

We have been having some dreary weather and my colorful room is shared with my 30 year old son while he is back in school. I really need my space back! He will be moving soon, now that he has a job. I love him, but I need him out!

I am one who is taking time to take care of my body and spirit. One who is learning her limits.

The Friday and today I have been sorting through my art studio closets. Keep, sell and give away. Planning to have an art supply sale in the near future. I have been busy, but haven't been taking time for spiritual matters. Looking at how to put that into my day.

I am one who is wandering around looking for the party. One who feels alone and scared.

This card makes me kind of creeped out today. It looks like she is being led by this black balloon full of nothing. Sometimes I feel like I am being led somewhere and I don't know where or why. My move is creeping up on me and I feel lost as to how to clear out 20 years of stuff that is piled in my house.

I am one who is looking for ways to remove myself from the walls I have built around me. One who knows that I can sing my song from where I am, but thinks it will sound sweeter when I am unrestricted.

New year and time to break out of my shell. I am still trying to think of an intention for the year. But moving out of my shell might work. I will think about it for a few days and let you know.
