New Year or New Day

Over the years in our society, like many of our ancient traditions, we have lost the origins of New Years. A time to celebrate the new moon and the day of equal sunlight and darkness. To welcome the rebirth of the natural world. A beautiful celebration of remembering our roots and giving thanks to the land. In our celebrations now, we have turned the focus towards ourselves and our personal lives. Blaming life for what’s been happening to us and judging ourselves. We put so much hope and belief that like a fairytale, at the stroke of midnight, when the fireworks illuminate the sky, something magical is going to happen. POOF! All that has taken place in the previous year, all that we’ve experienced and done will magically be erased. We will begin the New Year with a clean slate, where all is forgotten and anything is possible. All the hopes we’ve had and the dreams we’ve imagined will come true.
