The Christmas Season has always been a time of immense joy for me. It has always brought a sense of peace to my life.
I am trying hard to make that the same this year. There are so many things going on in December. Advent, my mom being hospitalized, Becca’s birthday, our anniversary, Christmas and my birthday. This is all disrupted by a global pandemic. I am feeling overwhelmed and not myself. I have been trying to find things to ground me, make me feel like me again.
I stumbled upon this article by Jenny Rapson about Jupiter and Saturn aligning in December for the first time since the middle ages, and it spoke to me. This was the sign I needed that, even though I feel as though my life is upside down, things will be ok. This light from above will help ground me this season.
I hope it will do the same for you. Merry Christmas!
