Winter Wonderland | Winter Solstice

Another fav from December 2013 – Winter Wonderland!

Growing up in a small town, these are the winters I am used to growing up with, tons of snow, so beautiful!

Today, on December 21st, the days begin getting longer. This morning I spent some conscious time with my journal and my oracle cards – the Rose Oracle.

Pulled 3 cards for the end of 2025 and wrote in my current journal. Then shuffled and set the intention to select 12 cards, one for each month for the new year in 2026 and wrote in my journal to begin 2026. Then pulled I felt inspired to simply pull 1 card for the meaning of what 2026 will bring for us… without shuffling again.

HELD
Sureness of the soil. Unseen help. Support. Community.

Rose Oracle – Held

Card of the day from The Rose Oracle

Sometimes, Life rips from us what we cling to the most. Or perhaps we cling to it for we can feel the cycles of change coming. Yet in the darkness of our longest, darkest night, we discover that it’s in the empty spaces that we can be reached and held the most. It’s in these that we discover a holding that we didn’t know before. And we discover that what we thought was a tomb is actually a womb.

You’re being called to trust that the Great Mother has got you. To trust in the sureness of Her soil. To trust the process of what’s unfolding and that you’re not going through this alone.
