This full moon in Cancer highlights the unconscious emotions remaining after the holidays. It’s reflection brings me joy at the progress made despite the challenges of weather and disruptions. I welcome the return to regular conditions and schedules.

It brings a cosmic report card to us all. We each have a chance to notice how we feel and work with that as we move forward in 2023. Although I didn’t make much forward advancement on my projects, I did have a chance to see how much progress has been made and make plans for the future.

What has this full moon energy brought to you? How can you work with it going forward? Ki to Happiness is content and plans to move forward in the direction of slow steady progress.

Today we may remember those who followed the star in the east to witness the birth of Christ consciousness in the form of baby Jesus. This biblical story represents the long journey we each make, bringing our gifts to offer to the materialization of the Highest Potential. Frankincense, gold, and myrrh represent gifts of abundant health and wealth to sustain the Light becoming Human.

My day began with the crashing sound of my jewelry rack, falling from the wall onto my feet in bed. Each article represents far away places I’ve traveled to and dear ones from around the globe. I took it as a sign to place them all on my altar as an offering to the Light within us.

What gifts do you offer to sustain the Light within? How long and far have you journeyed to bring your gifts? Ki to Happiness offers her all to the One in All.

The center of our solar system has been blasting the Earth and our neighbors with massive energy. The Sun has its cycles and this part of its rhythm includes record breaking solar flares. It’s best to ground this energy with walking and Hatha Yoga.

Making use of the energy instead of it making use of you may also help to forward your revision, refinement, and reflection at this time of retrograde. When we are unaware of these energies, we may feel scattered, unfocused and frustrated. It is an opportunity to blast back into projects needing a redo.

How could you make use of this energy? What practices ground you? Ki to Happiness grounds in healthy choices.

I have resurrected my manuscript, now working on it in a new way. Mercury retrograde is a perfect time for such revision. It is not a great time for technology and communication yet I’m doing it anyway.

No longer needing to accommodate weather, holidays, my assistant’s schedule, or resisting the new technology this process requires, I dove in. One of my dear friends called me exactly as I worked on her fictionalized character. Synchronicities always let me know I’m on the right path in Divine timing.

What do you need to be doing? As you start, are you getting confirmation through synchronicities, encouraging your way forward. Ki to Happiness appreciates the reinforcement of synchronicities indicating she is doing her it in Alignment with Divinity.

Now that the Christmas tree is down, and the last gifts have been opened, we’ve digested the leftovers of the holiday. Sweet sleep called me early. I let myself drift off before setting my morning preparations.

I awaken renewed. My cats and I share the stillness of predawn as I practice the soul revolution of yoga. Connecting my body with my mind and emotions tethered to the Highest Principle, I start my day, again and again.

What renews you? What’s the highest principal you revolve around? Ki to Happiness renews with sleep and revolves her soul around Spiritual Guidance which is easily accessed through yoga practice.

Hatha Yoga Center resumes its regular schedule after the holidays. I’ll be teaching at 10 AM in our refreshed studio. Private sessions today include one for me as I return to working with my writing coach.

I am ready. I welcome the privilege and the honor to serve and be served. Participating in life’s exchanges keep me current in the flow, now of 2023.

When do you return to work? What needs to be done so you look forward to it? Ki to Happiness brings the joy of the holidays with her.

Happy new year! Let’s welcome 2023 with a clear set of intentions. I intend to have a peaceful prosperous year of health, spiritual growth and gratitude.

As I begin my yoga practice, I feel it’s cumulative effect. I deepen my commitment to it. As I program my crystals and make my offerings, I invoke all the angels, saints, guides and guardian on my team to protect and safeguard my path.

What are your clear intentions for the new year? What practices will help you meet your intentions? Ki to Happiness practices Hatha Yoga to manifest her intentions of health, spiritual growth and gratitude.

In preparation for the new year, I’ve been cleaning house. Re-organizing, and letting go of clutter, adapting to this new space now that we’ve been here for five months is a celebration. Practicing hatha yoga cleans the house of the spirit, also welcoming in the new vital energy as we turn the calendar page to 2023.

While sweeping and scrubbing, I learned of the passing of Pele, Barbara Walters, and one of my classmates from Junior and Senior high school. The death of Lori McWilliams stopped me cold as I let go of the sponge and went to my knees in grief. None of us know how many NYE’s we get, so let’s clean up and be grateful “we have a pot to piss in” as my Grandmother used to say.

What do you need to clean up? How can you best prepare for 2023? Ki to Happiness cleans house in gratitude.

As we approach the fresh new year of 2023, mercury encourages us to look back. This three week period gives us a chance to reflect and redo. Many use this time to make resolutions which potentially won’t truly kick in until this period has passed.

This pattern may be confusing and cause communication and transportation problems. When we are informed about it, we are empowered to make the best use of this time. No need to try to force new things, or begin new projects, or insist on the New Year’s festivities going any certain way.

Can you take your time reviewing the past year? What needs to be refined? Ki to Happiness welcomes this time of reflection.

Around us, floodwaters are rising. We hear the sump pumps tending to the basements in our neighborhood, near Victory Creek. Our live work space is on the first floor, so we are on higher ground, with nothing in the basement to concern us.

We also have maintain power as 40,000 others in our vicinity lost theirs. I’m grateful for our good fortune of staying high and dry with heat and electricity. As a count, my blessings, I pray for those less fortunate at this time of year.

Can you count your blessings with me? Are you warm, safe, dry, with heat, electricity and clean freshwater? Ki to Happiness shares her high ground with any and all who are in our Hatha Yoga Center community, with room for you to join us.
