Home is the Heart of the Holidays

While Christmas music playlists often include favorites like “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus,” there are also a handful of tracks that go a deeper.

Listen to “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” or “White Christmas,” and you’ll hear a deep yearning to be home for the holidays especially when having to spend the holidays somewhere else.

December is filled with Christmas rituals – the TV specials, Live Rockefeller Christmas Lightning, the gifts, the lights, the music, fireplace, hot chocolate, snow, and what remains is home. It is the beating heart of the holiday, and its importance reflects our primal need to have a meaningful relationship with a setting, a place that transcends the boundary between the self and the physical world.

Intuition During the Holidays

Intuition is always with us, it is part of our human nature and mind. Working with your intuition and continually practicing using it will strengthen your ability to engage it when you need it.

Sometimes the holidays take us away from our usual routine, which is a good thing, it keeps our minds on our toes with the opportunity to experience something new. Just enjoying your physical senses, seeing, feeling, and hearing the holiday sights, and sounds without any thoughts or judgment exercises your awareness of your intuitive side. See what it recalls in you. This is how intuition comes to us, it pops up and is plain without criticism and just presents itself as it is. You may also enjoy yourself more to take this mini break from the hustle and rush of the holiday season.

You can also use holiday get-togethers to intuitively connect to someone. Take the time when conversing with friends for the family to receive not only what you hear when they speak, but what you feel and sense. Allow yourself to be the witness, the observer, and pay attention to yourself as the listener. You may be surprised at what pops up inside you when you are just present during the conversation and tuned in. This allows you to absorb so much more of what someone is sharing with you beyond their words.

When you’re shopping for a gift during the holidays you can use your intuition to help you choose the best one. Sometimes you may not be sure of what someone would like if you don’t know them well, or you know them too well it may be challenging to know that perfect gift. Here’s how you can use your intuition to help. Say you’re in the store and shopping for a clothing accessory for a friend but you’re not quite sure which color or style they would like. Among the choices in front of you, imagine your friend wearing each one and ask your intuition in your mind which one, choose the good-feeling ones, and use your eyes and your heart.

There are so many wonderful holiday displays, pictures, photographs, and sights that are a feast for your eyes. When you look pay attention to how it makes your heart sing or stir up some wonderful emotions. It’s a great intuition exercise! This all allows your intuition mind to give you impressions. You’ll probably intuitively discover things you didn’t realize before!

Enjoying the holidays is a fun way to exercise your intuition.

Holiday Hot Chocolate Bar Set Up Ideas

Invite guests to come in and warm-up with a decadent hot chocolate. Whether you’re hosting an after-dinner event or a catch-up with friends, hot chocolate bars are always a great idea!

Here’s how to set up the perfect hot chocolate bar:

1. Gather your ingredients: The star of the show is, of course, hot chocolate. Make it from scratch using cocoa powder, sugar, milk, and a dash of salt. If you’re tight on time, store-bought packets work just fine. Just be sure to have plenty to go around!

2. Variations of hot chocolate: Offering a variety of flavors adds a fun twist. Consider white chocolate, dark chocolate, or mint chocolate. If you want to go the extra mile, consider adding specialty flavored syrups or a mocha option.

3. The add-ins: This is where your guests can get creative. Mini marshmallows, whipped cream, chocolate shavings, crushed candy canes, flavored creamers, and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg can all add unique twists to a classic hot chocolate.

4. The adult options: For an evening gathering, you may want to include adult add-ins like Baileys, Kahlua, or peppermint schnapps.

5. The mugs: While paper cups work just fine, a variety of mugs can add character and style to your hot chocolate bar. You can stick with a theme, mix and match, or ask guests to bring their favorite mug.

6. Keep it hot: Invest in a couple of insulated carafes to keep your hot chocolate warm throughout the party.

7. The decorations: Consider a winter wonderland theme with snowflakes and pinecones or go classic with a cocoa and cream color scheme. Either way, make your hot chocolate bar as visually appealing as it is delicious.

8. Don’t forget the sides: What’s hot chocolate without cookies or brownies on the side? Whip up some sweet treats or ask guests to bring a dish to share.

Lastly, remember the most important ingredient – good company! The fun is in the camaraderie, so invite a great mix of people and enjoy your warm, sweet event. Cheers to a delicious and cozy hot chocolate bar party!

Infinite Blessings,

Kelly 🙂

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse

As the Taurus Full Moon Lunar Eclipse approaches on October 28, 2023, the energy around us starts to shift. We are in Scorpio season now and can feel our emotions are stirred. The veil that separates us from our deepest desires is lifted, and we see things that were previously hidden from us.

The key messages of this Eclipse urge us to cast our minds back to November 2021. What were the themes and situations we were dealing with then? It is highly likely that those issues have come full circle and have now reached a culmination point. This Eclipse marks the end of a cycle, and we are urged to shed the layers that have been holding us back and step into more of our authentic selves. As we take this leap, we reach a new chapter of our soul’s evolution.

Endings are powerful during this Eclipse, and we are encouraged to take action on something we wish to bring to a close. We must trust the process, embrace the changes, and step into our power with grace and courage. This Taurus Full Moon Lunar Eclipse marks a pivotal moment in our journey, a moment that will help us grow, evolve, and reach new heights of consciousness. It is a time of transformation and new beginnings, and we must approach it with an open heart, a clear mind, and a strong spirit. The Eclipse may shake us, but it is also an opportunity for us to rise and shine!

Happy Full Moon Infinite Blessings,

Kelly

Kid’s Spooky Halloween Cookies

First up, the Eyeball Cookies. These creepy-cute treats are a fun way to add some ghoulish charm to your party spread. Simply make your favorite sugar cookie recipe, but instead of plain white frosting, add a dollop of red gel icing to the center. Use a black decorating gel to draw a circle around the red, and voila! You’ve got yourself some eyeballs that are sure to turn heads.

Next, try your hand at making Monster’s Teeth cookies. This recipe takes chocolate chip cookies to a whole new level of fright. Mix in some green food coloring to your dough to create a Frankenstein-inspired hue. Then, roll the dough into balls and shape them into jagged, pointed teeth before baking. Once out of the oven, drizzle on some white frosting to add and finish.

If you’re looking for something a bit more advanced, the Zombie Hand Cookies are sure to impress. Using gingerbread dough, mold the cookies into the shape of hands with fingers spread out. Add some wrinkles and creepy detail to the hands using a toothpick before baking. Once out of the oven and cooled, frost the fingers with a beige-colored icing and use red gel icing on the tips of the fingers. Whether you’re making these Halloween cookies as a fun activity with the children or to serve at your next party, they’re sure to be a hit.
