Despite the traumas and tragedies of 2016, we will ride on into the new year. Taking some time to reflect on what we would like to see happen in our own lives is good to do at this time of year, setting intentions for growth and development, especially in terms of our personal project of awakening.

Maia Duerr has a great post that outlines this process, which she suggests to do on the new moon, which is today I think. “How to do a Reflection and Intention Process…” offers some great suggestions for the content and ritual process that can help us make this a meaningful time, and maybe it will help us all set an arc for a better 2017!
