Women are always running around juggling, trying to support the different roles they play in every day life. And in the midst of this balancing act, there may be a yearning for something more - something a bit deeper, something that connects everything together in a more meaningful way.
Does this resonate with you? Are you in search of a deeper connection with your authentic self, but wonder how and when this could possibly happen for you?
Now is the time to fully engage on a journey of self-exploration - one that leads to a life of purpose, passion and creative expression.
How you may ask? Look to the moon during her full phase. During the beginning of every new year, the full moon is more predominant than other times in the year because she brings a sense of wonderment and hope for a new beginning,
One of the gifts the full moon brings is an overwhelming desire to come alive. Whether it's bringing forth a passion front and center - or finally making the decision to take a giant leap forward with something you have been holding close to your vest - now is the time!
Whenever the moon is in the full moon phase, her energies are incredibly powerful. With her light beaming brightly from the sky, she showers the earth with the capacity to forge ahead and come alive with authenticity. Projects and endeavors that are began during a full moon carry a special passion and energy that is unmatched during any other moon cycle.
Just think about it this way. You are sitting at the restaurant of life. Now is the time to place your order. You receive your menu. On the menu are the things you wish to achieve in the new year. You get to order what you want, what you deserve, what you desire - and you get to order it now. You don't have someone there telling you can't do it or you won't make it - because this is YOUR menu of YOUR life.
It could be the book you have been thinking about writing. Or maybe it's the business you just know will make you happy, but fear stops you from moving forward.
This is your moment. The menu of life is for you. You get to decide on what you want to do.
What is it that you want more than anything? Take command over your menu of life during a full moon phase and you may find yourself being pleasantly surprised with the outcome.

The Creative Process, How And Why It Works
Creativity is a subtle and magnificent dance between the rational and the intuitive, between the left and right parts of the brains, between technique and imagination. Both partners in this dance are absolutely necessary and are needed in equal proportion, which means that imagination is not more important than technique and visa versa. If you only live in the imagination, you will never get organized, you will never complete your story. However, if you start from the rational, linear, organizational part of the process, ( ie.

The Happy Ending - Love Conquers All Or Thoughts On Fiction Writing After Dialoguing With My Dog
Recently, I was considering the question of peace, which doesn't happen often while writing fiction. There's all that drama, love, hate, desire, envy and so on. Peace, with any luck, comes at the end of the novel. I was considering this aimlessly as I lay with my head on Phoebe's warm flank. Phoebe, being the sensitive, intuitive creature she is, immediately tuned into my musings and suggested we consider the question of love instead, which she quite rightly observed was a precursor to true peace.
