2025 Year Ahead Card Spread
2025 Year Ahead Card Spread
I've been doing this practice with Kim Krans of The Wild Unknown for years ... The practice has helped me focus on tangible themes for my own spiritual / mental /emotional / physical journey.
I work with The Moon Is My Calendar by April McMurtry -- a circular calendar which follows the cycles of the moon and seasons. Feels much more true for me than grid calendars for this type of work.
I've been taking the past few weeks to reflect on last year's card spread ... the word of my 2024 year was SUPPORT ... It's been very grounding and settling in the midst of all the societal turmoil.
I can do what I can do.
That's it. <-- acceptance.
And that is IT. <-- affirmation.
And feeling gratitude for the support I've given myself and that I've been given.
Today, with some tea meditation from Being Tea ... I drew my cards from two decks by @Intuitive Art & Alchemy -- The Wisdom of the Divine Feminine deck and The Wisdom of the Shadow deck. This is a little different than I've done in the past, working with two themes -- maybe complementary, maybe contradictory -- which appeals to me, being in the both/and -- seems more real than "love&light" or "doom&gloom".

Word of my 2025 -- AWE
We will see how all this plays out in 2025. I've come to accept that "hopeful pessimist" is how I walk in the world -- while the glass may be half empty, I am hopeful to do my part to move the needle toward half full 😆. And a return to my own AWE and wonder is my next step.
Do you work with a word of your year? I'd love to hear it!
What are your rituals for reflecting back and looking forward? Could be as simple as a sigh (we made it!) or as in-depth as a life audit. As "spiritual" or as mundane as is meaningful to you. I look forward to your thoughts 🥰.
