Easter Week

This whole week is called Easter week or Holy Week, and I enjoy celebrating it with my family. 

Monday is my day to reset for the week and get my ducks in a row - make some plans for health and home, and get ready for a week of Easter activities with my grandsons.

Agenda this week:

1. Read "The Spirited Walker"

2. Clearing and Home projects

3. Grandson fun

4. Pocket calendar plan

Palm Sunday

The first Palm Sunday was the day that Jesus entered Jerusalem almost 2000 years ago. At that time Jerusalem had a normal population of about 50,000, and it at least tripled in size because of the influx of pilgrims celebrating the Jewish holiday of Passover.

Agenda Today:

1. Read "Revolutionary Witchcraft"

2. Journal queries

3. Ongo journal

4. Egg tree

5. Figgy pudding

End of a Crazy Week

What a week! Spring break is not what it used to be - no break for us. We had the boys for longer days, and one with an ear infection - not fun. Still, we had the kind of conversation and time you can't have on shorter days. Tonight we will have them again for an extended evening, and I want to set us up for success.

Agenda: 

1. Read "The Book of Doing and Being"
2. Creative imagining for Dragonfly Studio
3. Studio brainstorm
4. Projects for the week

5. Writing themes and passion flow plan

First Quarter Moon and Navratri Part 3

Navratri continues for the final three nights. The nine nights of Navratri are broken up into sets of three, and during each a different aspect of Shakti is meditated upon. For these final three nights we honor and thank the Divine Mother as Saraswati, who is "the essence of self". Saraswati’s wisdom and knowledge leads to enlightenment, happiness, and peace.

And Tonight is the First Quarter Moon; we are one-quarter of the way through the moon cycle. The moon is waxing - getting larger - until it's full again. Now is the time to remain flexible, use my obstacles as fuel for growth, and show full effort for priorities.

I use this March quarter moon's energy to create hope.

Agenda Today:

1. Morning meditation and mantra

2. Journal queries

3. Make a full effort plan

4. Add to the altar

5. Proaction and reciprocity plans

Sneaky Joy

Joy is a difficult emotion to consider right now, with life so challenging and the earth in crisis. I've decided to experiment in the next weeks with a sneaky path to joy, finding happiness through indirect, unexpected, or subtle methods rather than chasing it directly.

Agenda:

1. Read the Antidote
2. Stoic exercise of releasing control
3. New narrative for embracing the unexpected
4. Ongo journal
