We gathered together under the Snow Queen moon at Christine's magical cottage on the hill. We all were wearing sparkles to celebrate this festive moon. I always love to come to these events, its a time to catch up, celebrate our victories, look for new perspectives and create our next adventure. Tonight was one of those nights when synchronicity confirmed our connection to each other and to the Divine energy that connects us all. Christine served comfort food...chicken pot pie and corn bread. Yummy! We drank Avalon Wine and Elderflower Champagne.
Christine moved us through an exercise to pull inspired words from a silver reindeer basket. We pulled our inspiration words and wrote about them in beautiful holiday cards. I pulled the words....Rejoice, Luck, Celebrate, Success. I was stumped by the word "Luck". All I could think of was how luck dismissed the divine order of things. But as I sat with the word it became clear...by definition Luck is when something happens without a plan. I remember listening to a CD about how to allow miracles into our lives. They suggested being willing to accept a Gift. In other words, being willing to receive something with out doing anything to get it. Like being willing to accept something by Gods grace alone.
So this year I rejoice in the gifts God graces me with and I celebrate the successful direction my life moves in from those gifts.
I just got a new job (its contract for now but it will convert to regular full time soon) and it was clearly a miracle, a gift and a huge blessing. When it was clear that I needed to change jobs, the path was presented to me step by step. There were points where what I was doing did not look like it would take me in the direction I wanted to go. I would not have created the path I took to get to the goal...but now looking back I can see ever step built on the next until the goal was realized. The path to the victory was a mystery.
Its fun to have a tribe that I can reach out to, to celebrate my life's victories. Its great to celebrate with women who will let me share the story and cheer at all the good parts.
