My word for 2013 is NEST.
For as long as I can remember, I have been so un-grounded. I grew up in a tense childhood so my sense of security was always in a state of stress and anxiety. I was always caught up in my imagination and the ether plane so I would not have to face reality. In school, I was quick minded and focused a lot of my time in the element of air, because my goal was to get to college, and that would set me free. I ended up creating unhealthy and neglectful habits for myself and they have been hard to crack. I am definitely at a wayyyyyyyy healthier and grounded place in my life now, but there is still so much growth to experience.
Nesting. I am definitely not ready to hatch little babies, so that's not what I mean. But I am ready to create a space in my life which I can call 'home'. I am not one to call anything 'home'. I never get homesick (I do miss family) but growing up in California, and living both in the northern and southern regions, nothing has ever connected with me; resonated with me enough where I want sink my bones. I have only felt this kind of feeling in Flagstaff and Sedona...sigh.
So nesting for me right now looks like creating space in my home and heart to invite in simplicity and coziness. Cups of tea. Kitty snuggles. Nourishing foods. Water, water, water. More reading less internet. Creating a self-love altar in honor of Aphrodite. Healing childhood wounds. Creating more healing tools to share with my tribe <3
Have a beautiful day loves. What is your word for 2013?
Love and Blessings,

Nest is such a beautiful word and it is such an important part of life to have your home be your sanctuary. My word for 2013 is awaken. I want to have my soul awakened to what is really supposed to be, I want to be awakened to new opportunities and new endeavors. I want to awake the light within myself.

DeleteI have two words for 2013, though I am currently connecting with the first more. Release. Discover.
ReplyDeleteThose are powerful words <3
DeleteI feel the same way. I grew up in southern ca then moved to northern ca and back down and no where seems like home either. maybe we are just aliens. I have always wanted to go to Sedona! I hope I get to go there soon. I was thinking about you yesterday because I never drink water :-/ and I feel sick sometimes from not drinking water. Does that happen to you? I don't know why its hard for me to drink water our bodies need it to function! <333 xoxo
ReplyDeleteTry alkaline water if you can! I think it taste waaaaaay better than any other kind of water. It taste sweet! I've been able to keep it kind of consistent! My skin is way clearer, I definitely notice that! And I think you would loooooooooooooooove Arizona! Sedona and Flagstaff are my favorites!! <3 Go go go! I went camping for the weekend and that was enough to steal my heart.
DeleteMy word for 2013 is Glitter Filled. I wish I could be part of the Apothecary Circle but it's a bit out of my reach money wise. I chose Glitter Filled because this word represents happiness, positivity, fresh starts, accomplishments, celebration and adventure. This word represents everything I am excited about in 2013. Girly laughter, femininity, fashion and gorgeous home decor. Arts and crafts. Yes, I think Glitter Filled is the perfect word!
ReplyDeleteFor my Word of The Month for January, I chose Accomplish which has pushed me forward in the way soul words can and I have definitely accomplished so much, as has Jen! We're really pushing forward, especially health, mental health and Spring cleaning wise!!! I am also feeling more dedicated to Lariats and Lavender and all that I do in the digital world.
That is so awesome Angie! I love all the images Glitter Filled bring to my mind! You can have so much fun with that, and be so creative!<3 <3
DeleteMy word for this year is 'fertility.' we've been living with infertility for two years now and I am ready for change. I'm taking more active measures health-wise, but I'm also addressing the burden infertility has placed on my spirit. I want this year to be fertile in many ways, not just in the sense of conceiving a child-- I want my plans and dreams to be made manifest, to learn to live with a fertile spirit of possibility and abundance rather than barrenness.
ReplyDeleteThat is so beautiful Caitlin, I really hope this year is vital and fertile for you <3
