Goal Setting and the Winter Solstice

2010-12-22T15:23:00.000-08:00

Total Winter Lunar Eclipse.

The Winter Solstice, also known as Midwinter, occurs around December 21 or 22 each year in the Northern hemisphere, and June 20 or 21 in the Southern Hemisphere. It occurs on the shortest day or longest night of the year sometimes said to astronomically mark the beginning or middle of a hemisphere’s winter. The word solstice derives from Latin, Winter Solstice meaning Sun set still in winter. Worldwide, interpretation of the event varies from culture to culture, but most hold a recognition of rebirth, involving festivals, gatherings, rituals or other celebrations. Many cultures celebrate or celebrated a holiday near the winter solstice; examples of these include Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, New Years, Pongal, Yalda and many other festivals of light.[1]
Symbolic

Often since the event is observed as the reversal of the Sun’s ebbing presence in the sky, concepts of the birth or rebirth of sun gods have been common and, in cultures using winter solisticly based cyclic calendars, the year as reborn has been celebrated with regards to life-death-rebirth deities or new beginnings such as Hogmanay’s redding, a New Years cleaning tradition. Also reversal is another usual theme as in Saturnalia’s slave and master reversals.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_solstice
Solstice~ My personal experience

Since working with the Winter Solstice energy from 2007 (* see resource for podcast). I have seen a dynamic force within my own Goal setting process. I take the time to go within and be still to hear the inner voice, I take instruction and set my intention for the next six months.

During the Solstice 21/22 December people are rushing to get presents and focusing on the external / lower chakra (material frequencies) when this time could be used to go within. If the Solstice is falls on the date 21st it will represent the number 3, 2+1 = 3 . The number 3 in Verdic astrology relates to Jupiter* and is also is also the number of the Humanitarian, creativity and the Trinity, the triple Goddess aspect* .

If the solstice falls on the 22 2+” = 4 it will represent the square, the builder, structure, and it can also mean restriction, amongst other traits. The four is also related to the planet Uranus*

The period is from the 21st to the 23rd (this is a three-day portal) so during this time the use of tapping into your creativity to plan and find out what is really needed right now and what needs to be done to bring harmony into your life. This is also a time to seed your dreams, pay attention to your dreams, and keep your body free from foods that are going to shut down your Intuition. Use the energy of the number 3 to bring yourself into alignment with Spirit, and the energy of the number to build and give structure which is needed at this time.

I have never experienced a more profound time for setting intentions and seeds to blossom in the Spring and Summer.
Solstice exercises

Meditation ~ Can be anything for setting your intention, lighting a candle or just sitting in silence.

Group Meditation ( if you are an empath or sensitive please ensure that you are fully grounded and protected during a group meditation, empaths/or sensitive can pick up the intentions and wishes of others )*

Goal setting/Planning

Journaling

Divination

Painting

Poetry

Ritual

Cleansing and Meditation

This year we had a Lunar eclipse and a Solstice within 24 hours of each other.... an event that comes around only every 1400 years.
The buzz around the Internet suggested meditation, letting go of what is not needed, so that one can move forward.

I enjoyed a great Sistah Circle with close friends who came together to share, eating, visualise and plan our goals for the next six months. As I prepare to promote The Creative Healing Playbook , The Creative Healing courses and the Travelling Playshops, I needed to get some nourishing and healing time with my own circle of women friends . The women who came consisted of healers, teachers, artists, nutritionists, acupuncture, etc, etc, and we all had a very fast and busy year so this time was needed.

Circle
There is nothing better than sharing stories, comforting each other, sharing food, and laughing... There is nothing better than planning your goals in a group so that you can continue to do your work and feel that you are also being nurtured. Too many people who are burnt out due to the fact they are giving all the time... I intended to do this as long as I enjoy sharing and working with others, ( if I wish to travel the world and just create) then it will be as a fully healthy individual with a zest for life, and a burnt out and Holistic Coach.

So goals planned and heart light ... I have decided that I will feature some of these great women who have supported me to give tips health and well being. ... In this blog and perhaps maybe some of them will appear in the Creative Healing course...

Each day begins with an affirmation! Start a morning practice – The Creative healing playbook.

2010-10-20T07:09:00.000-07:00

Before I start my day on the computer or leave to do training, I start my day with: Yoga and an affirmation card.

The selection of card puts me in a reflective zone and connects me with myself. I am not saying that I cannot function without it, ( that’s meditation) . However the affirmation selection allows me to be creative and focused.

The best way to reach your goals is to have positive statements and affirmations that support you. In the Creative healing playbook you will be able create your own positive statements/affirmations. I will be posting some group work affirmation cards that my workshop participants have created using this process.

For more morning practice ideas and positive statements check out the Creative Healing Playbook at Amazon.com.

The use of art mediums are a good tool to work with participants that feel anxious. The figures represent emotions and how the participants are feeling in relation to anger. This was a good way to calm some of the individuals down before they got into more activities of the lesson.

Life Coaching Endorsements

I have really enjoyed my Life Coaching journey and it has far exceeded all of my expectations. Through my sessions with Marilyn I was able to decided what I wanted to do regarding my job and career. Once I made the decision, work no longer became a chore and within a month of starting my sessions I received my first piece of freelance work.

My relationship has also benefited, as I have been able to look at what type of person I am, and therefore decide what I would like to do with my life on a personal level. The sessions enabled me to do something which I had never done in a relationship before which was to be more open without fear of being vulnerable. I am now engaged to be married with a second child who was conceived with the help of IVF.

Through my sessions I found myself embarking on a spiritual journey which although unexpected was both moving and rewarding. I can honestly say that my Life Coaching sessions has changed me as a person. I am more confident, self composed, spiritual, and calmer.

I have recommended Life Coaching to my family and friends as I believe it is a valuable experience which can open your heart and mind to a whole wealth of possibilities, tools and gifts.

MAML

Marilyn Fontaine is an intuitive and gifted life coach whose grasp on the spiritual context of our lives adds a depth and clarity to her professional practice which is truly unique and nourishing. With Marilyn's assistance in keeping a clear focus on personal responsibility and action, I felt held and guided through a period of rapid growth and breakthroughs. She is a witness, cheerleader, truth-teller and friend. I would recommend her to all who are seeking to implement lasting change in their lives.

Witness Testimony 2 – –

I really want to thank-you for the great coaching you gave, the supportive listening and great suggestions and guidance at a time when I really needed it. The goals settings and the anchoring techniques you gave me were wonderful and just right. Since our sessions I feel that I have been far more proactive about moving my goals forward and much more confident in my approach. I am starting to hold myself accountable to myself with some very positive results. I am completely excited by life right now but also okay with the moments when my energy dips a little, knowing that this is the beauty of living! Thanks again so much I wish you the very best with the development of your career in this field.

Terri Henry - Dominica

Witness Testimony 3.

When I look back at my coaching form what jumps out at me most is, my self-belief, lack of self-esteem, lack of confidence and motivation. So what coaching or you have done for me is.

Help me to re-evaluate my life and to take time to focus on me, and given me the power to change. I look back at my wheel of life and smile because I know see it with a positive attitude.

Personal growth, new job with loads of opportunities.
Career, working for a company/university that will invest in people.
Money, a better salary plus loads of perks, (lets face it we all need money to different degrees).
Fun/hobbies working with decent people doing a decent job, which I feel I could socialise with and have fun.
Physical environment will definitely be improved.
Romance/partner could potential meet a toy boy! Will keep you posted on that one.
Friends/family this time has helped me rebuild my relationship with my sister.
Health working front of house again, so taking pride in my appearance. The biggest bonus one of the perks is a gym, alas not on site as I thought, but, in Regent St so not so far away. So no excuses for not getting fit again.

I particularly liked they way you reframed situations and I also liked the circle of excellence and swish techniques as these helped me with my job interview.

So a big thanks to you, after all the sky is the limit.

Kindest regards

Doreen Perry

Comfort Ritual Consultation

Marilyn reached out to me at a time when I was at a crossroads in my life. Broke and completely bogged down by the recession blues, she created a spirit-elevating ritual for me that reminded me of the bigger picture. She asked me what I wanted to manifest in my life, and spoke to me about not just surviving but thriving. Her personalized ritual took into account my spiritual beliefs and life goals. She helped me to clear my head, focus my energy, and dream a big happy dream for my life even though I was scared to at that moment. The ritual marked a real turning point in my thinking and my life, and helped me align my actions and intentions with my wildest dreams. It served as a reminder that even when things around us seem bleak, rather than running scared it’s a time to focus on what it is we really want. She asked me to visualize exactly what I wanted to manifest in my life, and create a dreamboard to reflect on those ideas daily.

Now I’m happy to say I have a new job that I enjoy, and have taken my art career to the next level by exhibiting in shows locally and nationally (a longtime dream of mine) and writing for a blog where I interview other artists and showcase their work. Marilyn helped me realize that I deserved to be fulfilled, and that if I worked hard and focused my intentions I could make it happen. She is a very gifted and centered woman, and it was such a privilege to have her consultation.

She helped me to clear my head, focus my energy, and dream a big happy dream for my life even though I was scared to at that moment. The ritual marked a real turning point in my thinking and my life, and helped me align my actions and intentions with my wildest dreams. It served as a reminder that even when things around us seem bleak, rather than running scared it’s a time to focus on what it is we really want. She asked me to visualize exactly what I wanted to manifest in my life, and create a dreamboard to reflect on those ideas daily.

Now I’m happy to say I have a new job that I enjoy, and have taken my art career to the next level by exhibiting in shows locally and nationally (a longtime dream of mine) and writing for a blog where I interview other artists and showcase their work. Marilyn helped me realize that I deserved to be fulfilled, and that if I worked hard and focused my intentions I could make it happen. She is a very gifted and centered woman, and it was such a privilege to have her consultation. ^{MA- USA}

Comments of the last workshop:

“The workshop was a magical experience for me in so many ways! The combination of meditation and readings and Art! It gave me a giant step forward on my spiritual journey that I was strolling on. I felt it enabled me to look at myself and to feel and explore all my emotions and feelings about who I am as a woman, mother, daughter, sister .

Marilyn reached out to me at a time when I was at a crossroads in my life.

Marilyn Fontaine!!!

I would recommend Marilyn to teach any of my friends and any one out there that needs to take a step back in their life!!!

Marilyn you’re wonderful and because of you now so am I , and I have my certificate to prove it!

Marilyn taught me Aromatherapy at a taster class that she ran for a few weeks only, but we enjoyed her so much we stayed for a year.

Marilyn inspired us to want to carry on in the profession and a few of us went on to study at college to become qualified Aroma therapists.

Because of Marilyn’s dedication, inspiration and love of teaching I am now a fully qualified Aroma therapist, beauty therapist, training to be a Nail technician and also work in the beauty department in the college.

I only went to enrol on an accountancy course and ended up being who I am today because of this wonderful person.

I can only thank you for your love and belief of what you do, because it has turned my life in a direction I would never have considered before.

Marilyn Fontaine is an intuitive and gifted life coach whose grasp on the spiritual context of our lives adds a depth and clarity to her professional practice which is truly unique and nourishing. With Marilyn's assistance in keeping a clear focus on personal responsibility and action, I felt held and guided through a period of rapid growth and breakthroughs. She is a witness, cheerleader, truth-teller and friend. I would recommend her to all who are seeking to implement lasting change in their lives.

I really want to thank-you for the great coaching you gave, the supportive listening and great suggestions and guidance at a time when I really needed it. The goals settings and the anchoring techniques you gave me were wonderful and just right. Since our sessions I feel that I have been far more proactive about moving my goals forward and much more confident in my approach. I am starting to hold myself accountable to myself with some very positive results. I am completely excited by life right now but also okay with the moments when my energy dips a little, knowing that this is the beauty of living! Thanks again so much I wish you the very best with the development of your career in this field.

Terri Henry - Dominica

When I look back at my coaching form what jumps out at me most is, my self-belief, lack of self-esteem, lack of confidence and motivation. So what coaching or you have done for me is.

Help me to re-evaluate my life and to take time to focus on me, and given me the power to change. I look back at my wheel of life and smile because I know see it with a positive attitude.

Personal growth, new job with loads of opportunities.
Career, working for a company/university that will invest in people.
Money, a better salary plus loads of perks, (lets face it we all need money to different degrees).
Fun/hobbies working with decent people doing a decent job, which I feel I could socialise with and have fun.
Physical environment will definitely be improved.
Romance/partner could potential meet a toy boy! Will keep you posted on that one.
Friends/family this time has helped me rebuild my relationship with my sister.
Health working front of house again, so taking pride in my appearance. The biggest bonus one of the perks is a gym, alas not on site as I thought, but, in Regent St so not so far away. So no excuses for not getting fit again.

I particularly liked they way you reframed situations and I also liked the circle of excellence and swish techniques as these helped me with my job interview.

So a big thanks to you, after all the sky is the limit.

Kindest regards

Doreen Perry
