New Opportunities
In our life we are given many opportunities to begin anew. Today signifies a New Moon, the chance to start a new cycle. Astrological and esoteric traditions tell us that at the New Moon, seeds of thought and energy are created, which develop and mature as the moon grows to its fullness. The demarcation of a New Year has just passed for the Western calendar, and Chinese New Year lies immediately ahead, on February 10th. Thus celebrations of a new start and new beginnings have been enjoyed by mankind for thousands of years.
The chance to put the past behind us and enter into present time with all of its promise and potential is an exciting and hopeful aspect of our great adventure in life.
It is this hopeful promise that is part of the joy that each day, each new dawn, brings to me. The wonderful thing about these plentiful markers of new beginnings, from a new day to the New Moon or a New Year, is they can be used as a time of reflection or meditation, empowering us to truly put the past behind us and enter into now.
There are also opportunities to forgive yourself of any past failures, and to forgive others of any past wrongs or betrayals. Each new day, each new moon and each New Year reminds us that our most powerful time is now. It is in the present that our full promise and full potential are available to us.
Whether we are young or old there is truth in the saying “Today is the first day of the rest of your life.” Celebrate it by letting go of the past and entering to the power of Now with all of the freedom and joy that offers you, right here and right now.
I love the chance to become anew!
I do some voluntary work and every day manifests new opportunities for growth and transformation.
We need to just stay open to new possibilities.
This is so true!
Hopeful, helpful, inspiring, Thanks.
I need to make more money from an opportunity.
