It’s a week in which we may find ourselves called to hone our communication. Don’t forget the value of looking at things through a different lens, taking a tact that isn’t always your go-to. An innovative approach to fact finding and information corralling may allow you to connect to a larger sense of meaning, giving your message a more expansive platform than you had previously considered possible.

All said, what’s also incredibly palpable right now is the upcoming Lunar Eclipse on January 10 that connects to the Saturn/Pluto Conjunction (that’s exact on January 12).

It’s a time when we may find ourselves digging deep down into our resourcefulness, doing things that we may not have even known previously that we had the capacity and endurance to undertake, let alone complete. We may find ourselves with a laser-like focus to attend to things that we have come to realize have extraordinary import.

I can tell you this is how I feel, as I settle into the last two weeks of writing my manuscript for The Complete Book of Dreams, which is due to the publisher on January 14 (and will be released in September). When I first got this opportunity I was beyond thrilled, and yet a little fearful as I had a relatively short period to complete it, less time than I perceived I may have needed. And yet, I couldn’t let this stop me; after all, it was pretty much a dream come true to be asked to write a book on one of my favorite subjects, dreams.

I did find myself numerous times slipping into wallowing with questions such as How can I do this?, Do I have what it takes? , Will I be able to complete this in enough time? et al. rearing their head. And yet I quickly realized that I actually didn’t have the time to swirl in those thoughts if I was going to get this done.

I needed to focus and just do the work. Somewhere deep within me, below the self-doubts and the limiting narratives I had told myself, I knew I could do it. I’ve thrown all of myself into this, and even during the times that have been an incredible test of my endurance, I’ve never felt so rewarded creatively. I’ve come to know commitment on a whole other level.

I look to this as one of my most significant experiences of the Saturn/Pluto Conjunction and what it’s invited me to take upon (and can’t help but think of the synchronicity of my deadline being just days after its exact conjunction).

I share this with you not just to tell you what I’ve been up to, but also as an example that may mirror for you something that you’ve been undertaking and taking on, something that’s pushed you to realize that you have capacities, resources, and abilities beyond what you had previously imagined. For all the challenges of this time, take a moment (or several) to honor this, and yourself.

Given the power of this Eclipse and Saturn/Pluto Conjunction, I didn’t want to wait until next week to share what I’ve written on it. you can find it here.

You can also get insights into it in the So Divine! podcast for January that Megan Skinner and I just did, which is now up on the website.

I wish you, your family, and loved ones a most wonderful New Year.

May 2020 be filled with the clarity of vision that we have all envisioned and for which we’ve strived.

All my very best,

xoStephanie
