Virtual Full Moon Meditation
with Natalie Johnson
January 5, 2023 @ 6:00 pm – 6:45 pm
The first Full Moon of 2023 arrives on Thursday, January 5, and is in the sign of Cancer. As we move into what is usually the coldest and snowiest time of year in the Northeast, it is fitting that we be mindful of home and hearth, of what it takes to keep the “homefires” burning both physically and spiritually, and how we can offer a place of refuge from the cold and harshness of both Mother Nature and of a culture that can sometimes be cold, careless and unwelcoming to the stranger.
Just as we would offer the warmth of our fire and a cup of hot tea to a friend, let us consider ways in which we can offer similar warmth and welcoming to those who live on the edges, on the periphery of society who also have need of a welcoming gesture, a warm smile, a helping hand. In this month of Janus standing at the threshold between the past and the future, let us explore ways to start anew, to sweep our hearth clear of ashes of the past and to kindle anew the fires of compassion and love. Hearth …Heart..Earth. All words with the same root. All connected. Rather than resolutions that will soon be forsaken let us consider setting a firm intention to do and be more in 2023. More welcoming, more generous, more loving. Come join us…….all are welcome.
