In Anthroposophy, it is thought that each of these twelve Holy Nights represents a month of that upcoming year.  So the 25th would be roughly the month of January, the 26th would be roughly February and so on.  It's as if each day becomes a microcosm, a tiny window into that month.  The ground is very fertile during this time to plant the seeds that you would like to see blossom and bear fruit during those months.  Today is thought to be symbolic of approximately the time around the month of May.  What seeds do you want to see flourish during May?  Maybe you can jot them down or take a moment to visualize them.  What people would you like to see?  You could send them a quick email or phone call.  What feelings would you love to feel?  Why not feel them now?

You are welcome to take this or leave it.  It is just food for thought.  

Finally, I spent the morning writing out my visions for the year in full color with lots of juicy adjectives.  It was such a joyful and enlivening experience!  If you could do, be and have exactly what you wanted, what are your biggest dreams?

For some reason, the facebook event for Twelve Nights of Peace appears to have been shut down.  We can't figure it out, but we decided to move some of the content onto the website.  Please feel free to share your visions, dreams and intentions - both for your own life and for the planet - in the comment section on this blog and also on the PeaceRipples facebook page.

How has everyone been honoring the daily moment of peace?  I'd like to share about my prayer on the first day.  It was a beautiful and poignant moment.  I was with my extended family, sitting around a crackling fireplace, snow sparkling under the sun outside, and all of us feeling warm in our hearts.  A family member had just gotten out of the hospital, adding to the sweetness of all of us being together.  My uncle brought out his gong from Bhutan.  After a few moments of silence and inward contemplation, I looked around the room at everyone's serene faces deep in meditation.  It was beautiful.  

Here is a short snippet video of the gong.

Please feel free to share your experiences of the moment of peace.  There are so many ways to honor it.  This is only one example.
