2016 - A New Year - A Bright & Wondrous Gift - A Manifesting Miracle!

We are now in a bright and shiny New Year filled with so much potential! A fresh New Year always makes me feel like a little child on Christmas morning excited to open up that bright shiny gift...the anticipation of finding out what is hidden within the wrappings!

In numerology this is a "9" year...what does that mean...it means big things are expected... and that’s because the Number 9 is all about culmination and celebration! Now is the time to finally reap the unlimited rewards you’ve been working so hard for! Like tying up a present with a big red bow, the Number 9 wraps up the last 9 years into one pretty package before the next 9-year cycle begins again next year, in 2017...but before that happens you still have one whole year to bask in the abundant energy of 9.  If negative things are occurring around you...then the # 9 energy is telling you it is time to start letting go of something that is not working for you...if positive things are occurring around you...then the energy of the # 9 is telling you to bask in and enjoy the abundance of all the hard work of the last 8 years!

So 2016 has so much potential for so many wonderful possibilities that I actually have to stop and take a calming deep breathe to settle my excitement. We each have the ability to manifest an awesome year filled with exciting adventures; learning possibilities; new or improving relationships; strengthening friendships; finishing up old projects and starting new ones; and...insert your dream list here...as the possibilities are endless! We are limitless beings...with the capability to dream our reality into being...yes that does sound wonderful does it not...well it is true...it is our belief in our own abilities that is key to this manifesting miracle.

As a Reiki & Reiki Shaman teacher I have been blessed to work with so many incredibly gifted people over the years...and what makes them so gifted...is their belief in themselves and their abilities. But like most people they first had to overcome their doubts and limiting beliefs "that everyone else can do this but me"...yes we all go through this aspect at some point...the ability to trust and have faith in our own abilities is one of the hardest things for anyone to do...but is the most important. You can be the most talented person on the planet...but without faith in yourself...you will always doubt your abilities...and success (whatever that may mean to you) will always be just out of reach.

So if you want 2016 (a #9 year) to be extraordinary...look in the mirror and see the extraordinary person looking back...your own potential is limitless and all you need to do is believe in yourself and have faith that you are capable of great things. This does involve work and commitment on your part to shift and make those positive changes in your life to reinforce, nurture and commit to loving and believing in yourself...but you are worth the hard work! My journey started many years ago by joining a yoga class and taking some Reiki courses...and 11 years later...I am still manifesting my reality...for the incredible journey I have created for myself is one I would never have believed possible ...if I had not decided I was worth the effort to make those positive changes. Meditation, yoga, deep breathing, positive affirmations, sound therapy, Reiki, hiking in nature, exploring the world and people around you, observing animals and their environment, volunteering for causes close to your heart, working with children and/or animals/and or Seniors...doing good for yourself is doing good for others...a domino effect sort of speak. The energy of positivity radiates out from you and touches everyone and everything around you...but it all starts with you!

So it is up to you what you want to do with this bright and shiny New Year! How do you want this gift to unfold?

Blessings for an Extraordinary 2016!
