Spacious

For the last few years I have experienced a phenomenon whereby a word appears toward the end of the year to inform, frame and guide the year to come. So far these words have included dance and freedom. For 2013 the word that seems to be appearing is SPACIOUS.



What does spacious mean to me?

It means an expansion of freedom, dance, flow and connectivity.
Spacious provides room for movement.
Spacious provides a place for the unknown, for uncertainty and for the mystery to be present.
Spacious has an open inviting feeling to it.
It suggests exploration.
It is playful.
Spacious is a deep breathe.
In hale.
Ex hale.
AAAAhhhhhhhh .... !

Spacious implies limitless opportunites.
I am looking forward to being spacious.
I am curious as to what spacious will bring.

As 2012 comes to a close, tonight seems like a night to walk the labyrinth and to sit by a fire with friends telling stories to one another and enjoying the quality of being together. This year had much to live upto with expectations of paradigm shifts, consciousness deepening moments and Mayan prophesies. In all it has been a year of preparing the soil, planting seeds, setting intentions for a life to blossom and grow. The old growth has to be redug into the land to replenish the soil for what is to come. There is a lot of letting go that has had to happen to get to this point. Emptying out of the vessel of life. To travel lighter. In the winter time mulched soil may not look like much and yet it is rich fertile ground, we underestimate it at our peril. What can't be seen underneath the surface maybe invisible to the eye yet it is doing it's magical alchemical thing creating the new that will eventually reveal itself oneday in all its glorious beauty. And that sums up what has been going on through 2012 and hints at the potential of spacious for 2013 and beyond.

2013 is for me about creating a spacious quality in my life to allow and invite the new to arrive from the dark into the light. 

Happy New Year
Everyone
Feliz Ano Novo
Para Tudo Mundo
