It is the end of a momentous year, with its changes and challenges, mysteries and misunderstandings. In many ways, 2020 slapped us right upside the head and told us to “act right!!!” We stripped down the streamers of fantasy of what we could want to be in order to see what we are in actuality. The ridiculousness of entertainment was numbed by reality and the reality shows reflected what we were experiencing in our own homes. We woke from a stupor like a drunk at a wedding, wondering what the hell happened and what did I miss?
Now with the end of the year upon us, the traditional challenge of “making a list and checking it twice” and conjuring up what kind of good we will be next year is in our hands. After the sobering reality of the party that never seems to end named 2022, what will we become in 2023? Here are some ideas to think about so that we are prepared for 2021 and beyond.
GET FIT NOW!
We have had many restrictions on us this past year and it is important that we establish some sort of movement program (notice I did not say exercise?) in order to strengthen our bodies. Walk, lift light weights at home, do your cardio on the stairs, squats in front of the news, etc. Any and all movement is good for your tendons, muscles, and blood flow. Lighting a white candle anointed with Health or Healing Oil and having it burn during your ‘movement time’ (remember it is not exercise) can assist in drawing in good things for you as you work on getting out the negative “sludge” from your pores.
EAT HEALTHY
Many learned how to cook with wonderful video streams, food service deliveries, and enhanced daily e-mails with creative ways to use what we had in the cabinet. Chick pea pasta with creamy Alfredo — who would have known! Staying away from junk food and eating better improves your life in many ways. Have to have chocolate? Do so in moderation and make sure it is pure blocks of that dark heaven and not stuffed with other hidden calories. Got the crunching blues? Make some popcorn or buy healthy chips to crunch away that stress. Moderation is the mantra for the day. Energize spring water by placing your hands in the shape of a triangle, with the tips of your index fingers touching and the tips of your thumbs touching. Spread your fingers as wide as you can and pray or chant in your own words an affirmation that this water will cleanse you and fill you with clarity and peace.
DOWNSIZE
Now is a great time to go through your wardrobe and donate your gently used items to those less fortunate. We have helped online shopping to blow up during the last year, and we did pick up a few fabulous pieces we are going to bust out once we can party again, but until then, go through your drawers and give up items that don’t fit too well. Bless someone who can use that sweater or coat! Go further to extend the blessings by anointing the label in the center back of the garment with Fast Luck or Blessings Oil, so that it will give the new owner a spiritual boost. By blessings others, you are rewarded with blessings.
GET PERSONAL ARRANGEMENTS IN ORDER
I am talking about getting your birth certificates, Social Security cards, passports, banking information, life insurance policies, final (meaning funeral) arrangements, and estates, trusts, and wills in order. Many young unsuspecting individuals passed this last year, leaving a litigious mess for family to deal with during office and departmental COVID-19 closures. Burn an anointed Clarity candle or an Ancestor devotional candle for assistance in these legal decisions, so that you will be clear of thought and guided to secure the family future for the descendants.
MAKE A DESIGNATION BOOK FOR SPECIAL GIFTS
It is not too early to create a journal that you can keep in your personal papers that assigns certain pieces of jewelry, firearms, antiques, photos, and other material items to chosen members of friends and family. Did little Kiana love your gold hoops? Put it in writing that she is to receive these upon your passing. Grandma’s china? Give it to your baby sister. Dad’s music library you inherited? Let your brother have it for memories. Anoint the book spine or the edges of the paper with Peace Oil so that calm emotions and sensibility rules over those who will look at this notebook when you have passed.
PROMISE YOURSELF, NOT OTHERS
For those of you who have flown on an airplane, right before takeoff, the cabin attendants demonstrate how to put on the oxygen mask. They tell you to put your mask on first, before assisting others. Why? Because if you pass out, you can’t assist another. Charity begins at home and you have to come before others. Please consider being selective with who you promise your time, energy, or money to in the future. You will not ever be able to save everyone on the face of the Earth, so consider starting with yourself. Once you have all your needs fulfilled, then choose one or two persons or charities to help. There are plenty of other humans to shoulder the weight of the World. Empower yourself with a pink candle anointed with an Attraction or Self Love Oil so that you can see the benefits of taking care of yourself first, before extending service to others. This will protect you from being taken advantage of by others. You might also want to light a white candle asking blessings for any charity or individual who needs additional prayer at this time. Anoint this candle with Blessing or Healing Oil.
The upcoming 2021 year will still host challenges that we will face as we move forward in this moment in Time where we are a part of History. None of this is a true mystery, as events have been predestined for us. Working together with the Future allows you control of your own Destiny. Consider some of the above actions to enhance your Life and Existence.
