Four Seasons Hand Odysseys

The Fall Equinox approaches in the Northern Hemisphere and I am thrilled. A big reason that I moved back to Vermont 2 years ago was to really feel the changes – to notice my commitment to my own willingness to adjust my life. For years I have wanted to mark the change in each season with something special. Time went by and I gave lip service to creating special holidays for myself and others who felt enlivened by nature's gifts. Besides Thanksgiving, which is all about food and family and friends, there were few holidays that I enjoyed.

Slowly I have added more ritual and pause during these times. I did some guided imagery the other day and saw a way to invite you to celebrate the rhythms of nature and to commit to new beginnings through your hands with me or on your own.

First some ideas for working with your hands over the 4 seasons and then some general ideas.

4 Season Hand Odysseys

We'll break the year up into the 4 seasons. Each season you'll discover a new aspect of your hand journey and have the opportunity to go deeper with this new information.

An example of individual work:

• Spring: Learn more about the potential to dance with your Life Lesson, Life Purpose and Life School. Commit to a goal and track how you are doing learning the steps
• Summer: The Heart Line – Learn all about your heart's desires and how you relate to others and go out to practice emotional mastery
  
• Autumn: The Head Line and other wisdom markers – How you process information and whether you are utilizing your thinking capacity enough. Commit to stimulating and focusing your thinking
• Winter: Your Singular Strength and Personality Archetype. How are you using your most reliable resource and are you being true to your natural way of being?

Example of Group Immersion Work:

• Spring: Join a Life Purpose Journey Group face to face or in tele-web format
• Summer: Host a Hand Seminar and Hand Reading Circle
  
• Autumn: Enroll in the Hand Analysis Intensive Weekend – immerse yourself in learning how to read hands and fingerprints while learning about your self
  
• Winter: Attend the Life Purpose Immersion Retreat – 4 days of learning, reflection, practice, and group activities designed to go deeply into your soul journey

General ideas:

• What do you do already? Invite friends to join you.
• How do you feel when each equinox and solstice approaches? Keep a journal and make the seasonal change date a special entry - sort like making New Year's resolutions...but more often and as a check in and reflection
• Take a day off from work - Treat like a special Holiday
• Serve a seasonal meal to friends and family. Design it based on what is growing right then and there
• Create a bouquet, altar or display that evokes the seasons
• Write a poem about something you saw that typified the new season – geese flying over head, the special quality of the sun, a spot of color, a new flower in the woods
• I am sure you have many more....START on this Equinox.
