Happy Holidays! There is so much to celebrate during this December and I hope you are enjoying your December. It doesn’t matter which holidays you celebrate (or none) December is a time for reflection on the past year and contemplation on the coming year.
How has your 2023 been so far? What have you learned? What lessons will you take with you into 2024?
Life really is all about learning the lessons presented to us. One of my favorite quotes is John Maxwell’s:
“Sometimes you win. Sometimes you learn.”
I would add that there’s always something to learn!
The New Moon on Tuesday, December 12 (6:32pm Eastern Time) is the time for setting intentions that will carry us over the threshold into the next year. What intentions will you be setting? What energies are you carrying over into 2024 and what are you ready to leave behind with the old year?
In the flurry of activity that accompanies this season, it is a good thing to sit for a bit and tune in to the energies of your life. Are you living the life you want to live, or are you waiting for something to happen/be done with/come to you before you can really live YOUR LIFE?
Here is the message for these times:
“Everyone is seeking connection. Most are seeking it to someone or something outside themselves.
“The true connection they seek is TO THEIR INNER BEING, THE SOUL, THE SELF.
“When a person discovers that what they have been seeking has been there inside all the time, they can feel a sense of relief and wonder and completion.
“There is no outside thing, group, action, or person who will make anyone feel ‘complete.’ Each person is already ‘complete’ within their own being.
“There can be, however, and often is, a feeling of being incomplete. Along with this feeling comes a need to ‘find that missing piece’ and this need leads to comparison to others, to the acquisition (of things, lovers, money, power, etc.) and to the belief that ‘If only …’ or ‘When I have ____, I’ll feel complete.’
“Oh, my dear one, you ARE complete. Yes, NOW. Exactly as you are in this moment. You ARE all that you need.
“If you have given away parts of yourself, reclaim them as yours. If you struggle with the belief that ‘I am not enough,’ release that belief. If you think that you will feel complete when you just have or do or get something or someone, release that thought now.
“YOU ARE COMPLETE just as you are NOW.
“You may need help in clearing out the closets of your mind where those old beliefs and thoughts live. Do it. Get a mentor to help.
“Change the story that you tell yourself about who you really are. Embrace all of you, all the parts, all the accomplishments, all the lessons you have learned and are still learning.
“Who would that ‘Complete You’ BE? What would the ‘Complete You’ DO?
“BE that. DO that.
“You are what you seek. You have what you need.
“BE that wonderfully unique you IN the world and FOR the world.”
When you accept that you are complete, you are enough, right now, you can choose to live the life you desire!
If you would like some help figuring out your plan for the life you desire, I am happy to help you start the New Year with some guidance. Sign up for a BEYOND QUANTUM READING on my website:

Also, a Reading makes a wonderful holiday gift to a loved one who would like some guidance or connection to someone who is on The Other Side. Message me and we can arrange a Gift Certificate for you to use.
And if you are interested in a deep dive into your Human Design, who you are designed to be, and what strategies will help you to live the life you want to live, message me about having a Human Design Reading to start the New Year with great tools to take forward with you.
Enjoy this holiday season! Take time to reflect and rest. In addition to the New Moon on the 12th we have Mercury going Retrograde at 2:09 am Eastern Time on 12/13! A double-whammy week! Review – everything! Do all the Mercury Retrograde things you know to do AFTER you have set your New Moon intentions.
May you finish your 2023 lessons so you don’t have to bring them into 2024, and may you have an ease-filled time for the rest of this year.
Sending many blessings and much love and best wishes for a fun holiday season!








You Are the Best Holiday Gift – Richard’s Commentary
December 26, 2013 — RichardWell, it’s all over! Or, is it? Yes, Hanukkah, the Winter Solstice and Christmas are behind us. But we have the Gregorian New Year, Epiphany, the Lunar New Year, and a whole new year of holiday’s coming up. And we have today, December 26. Many people are out returning or exchanging the gifts they received. They are back in the hustle/bustle of shopping for the post-holiday bargains; maybe some are even getting ready for next Christmas, buying up trimmings and paper and lights and party goods for the holidays of 2014!
However, if you carried the meaning of yesterday’s message from Rosemary with you, then your gifts to others, those gifts of yourself – a smile, a kind word, a hug at the right moment, and even an attitude of cheer through the day, those “gifts of yourself” cannot be exchanged, they can’t be taken back; but of course, they might be returned!
Every Christmas for I don’t know how many years now, my brothers and their families put on a Christmas dinner for those in my tiny home town that don’t have family, might not be able to purchase a fancy dinner with all the trimmings, or are just feeling the need to be with others at Christmas. Yesterday they went through two big turkeys and a giant ham, serving over 70 people with great food, warm cheer and smiles all around. When I talked to my older brother around 7:30 last evening he was already dozing off, beat from the hard day’s work; but he was so upbeat we gabbed for almost an hour. He gave the gift of himself and received so much more. His cheer was infectious!
So, hear Rosemary’s advice in your heart: Think outside the box of your own feelings. It doesn’t matter whether you are smiling all the time or crying all the time. There is more in you than just those feelings. And there is more around you than just what you are feeling today. Today is a holiday too; every day is a holy-day if we are present to every moment and present to how we are a present to the world!
And: Stay upbeat, if you can. Smile if you feel like it. Ask for help if you need it. Find someone with whom you can let your hair down and be yourself and share your feelings without judging yourself. Then find someone who might need a helping hand and offer that hand, outstretched because giving is great and receiving is, too. Be the gift that keeps on giving; and enjoy the gifts of a smile, a hug, a cheerful greeting you receive from others. And take these gifts into 2014, because that way it will be a wonderful New Year!
PS: Next year will be wonderful. How do I know? Because I listened to a message from The Divine Feminine channeled by Rosemary on the Winter Solstice; and they offered guidance and advice on what we might expect in 2014 and how to approach the year’s upcoming energy. Expect more change! The transformation continues! If you missed the message it is now available as an MP3 recording for a modest price; check out the details here: Winter Solstice Mesage
