As we sit on the tipping point of the New Year it seems the world is at a pivotal moment. Can you feel it?

Many have greater hope, even enough to carry those who still are doubtful but willing, courageous enough to release from of the grip of those who wish to hold us back, still loving them.

Even though we know the road ahead may be challenging and uncharted, we can now imagine and feel the delightful flutter of new possibilities where before there were none. A quickening has occurred. This is a wonderful thing. It is an important moment where authentic energy is being set in forward and conscious motion by all of us.

Having been discouraged for so long, enough are ready to own the hope we finally feel in a way that makes the momentum unstoppable. We understand that we cannot just hope irresponsibly despite our tenuous feeling from past disappointments. We are called and many have the courage to embrace and apply what has been encouraged in us. That voice within is calling, and we dare to respond. Dreams are to marry action to allow the emergence of the new.

It is time that we take ownership or shaping the now into the future, realizing that we are the change we have been waiting for, willing to step forward before the path is completely clear. We must accept that life is messy when alchemy is happening. Now is the time, and we have a clearer glimpse of possibilities.

Instead of waiting for someone else to swoop in and make a difference or to fix what has been so far off, we have a greater sense of our own role, our gift of magnificence, power and strengt being summoned. It is time to clear the way by clarifying what we want,  circling, asking for support, tools, and guidance as we act from a place of BEing, not only DOing, to create a New Earth.

Happiness is generated by acting on our inner stirrings, daring to lean in the direction of our passions before all the t’s are crossed and the i’s dotted. We are more safe than we think we are. We are surrounded by many longing for the same happiness, prosperity, and love. All we need do is link arms and our united energy will carry us forward.

This year I am claiming that my imperfection is absolutely perfect and that my good intentions are far more important to generate the miracles that are called for now.

As individually and collectively we discover that we are not alone, the greater potential of our energy is realized and can be applied to collective dreams. If we risk sharing our individual dreams out loud accompanied by the demonstration of our passions, we find that our voice is united with the collective dreams of others wanting to make a difference in their own way. The alchemy happens and LovEvolves.

I believe that 2009 is a time of collaboration, weaving, recognition, activity, resource-fullness, transcending, and for those who open their eyes to the joy that exists even amidst struggle, the year ahead will be abundant with insights, collaboration, prosperity, and sustainable happiness.

I am, and through me Circle Connections is open to joining with you in collaborative and intentional ways to be the doula who holds the space for active joy to carry us into the New Year.
