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.

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.

Mercury turns Direct

As the world keeps turning, it’s important to pause and celebrate the momentous occasion of Mercury stationing direct. I do like Mercury retrograde for when you would need to “re” evaluate, “re” visit, “re” generate, “re”turn, “re”treat and so on.. it helps us in a mysterious way.

Although, for weeks, we’ve been wading through a sea of introspection as Venus and Mercury did their cosmic backspins. But now, with the planets starting to move forward once again, we can start to regain our footing. Of course, we’re not out of the woods just yet – those outer planets are still retrograde, and there’s plenty of turbulence in the cosmos to go around. But you don’t have to let that hold you back! This is your chance to tap into your inner power, to connect with your truest self and start living the life you’ve always wanted.

All that soul-searching you’ve been doing lately? It’s not for nothing. Those deep introspective dives have helped you clarify your intentions and get a better understanding of your purpose. And now that the energy is starting to pick up, you’ll be able to put all that newfound clarity into action. Sure, there may be some bumpy patches ahead – but you can face them head-on. As long as you stay true to yourself, and stay committed to your goals, you’ll be able to thrive in the months ahead. So raise a glass, take a deep breath, and let’s get ready to take on whatever the universe has in store!

Peace and Love,

Kelly

Licensed Realtor

I am excited to share a new topic here at Intuitive Magazine, Real Estate! I am thrilled to have joined Coldwell Banker Premier Properties- Palm Coast 🩵 I am now a licensed Realtor.

The excitement of helping people find their dream homes and watching them build a new chapter of their lives fills me with positivity.

I believe that finding a home is not just about finding a physical structure, it’s about finding a sanctuary that aligns with your soul and your beliefs. It’s about creating a space that speaks to your spirit and allows you to connect with the world around you.

So, while this magazine is about positivity and spirituality, it’s only natural that we add real estate to the mix. After all, finding a home that is perfect for you and your family is a spiritual journey in itself.

Strawberry Full Moon in Sagittarius

Happy Strawberry Full Moon in Sagittarius!! This weekend June 3rd 2023.

Full moons take place when the moon is in the opposite zodiac sign from the sun. Which means the full moon is in Sagittarius when it is in Gemini season!

Who else has a moon in Sagittarius? I’m vibing with the Strawberry moon as this moon in Sag girl is always looking for the next adventure!

This Full moon will amplify this Sagittarius energy and encourages a sense of surrender, release and letting go with grace. When we align with the natural rhythms of life, we allow ourselves to feel the eternal oneness, ground ourselves in the present moment and truly enjoy life’s magic!

Full Moon Blessings,

Jupiter Enters TAURUS

Jupiter activates a brand new 12-year Cycle by moving into Taurus! Jupiter enters Taurus today until 5/25/2024. You can & will improve your Relationships & Finances, while initiating a whole NEW Truth, Story & Belief System rooted in better values, different priorities, new definitions of security and a completely new sense of self-worth & self-value. 12-years could be too much to fathom so I would encourage to think in terms of 3-year increments. The Trinity energy is very powerful and when working with Jupiter, you are being shown to an expanded awareness of a Larger Truth, of which we all are an integral part. It is vital to work with this energy when you are consciously co-creating your personal code and the Truth & Story of your own life.

This energy is going to encourage us to improve our environment, beautify ourselves and create something valuable & long-lasting. It is time to fully embody and truly express your new values by making new choices & different decisions. It is time to assess your relationships & resources and see where you can improve them. There will be a tremendous focus on your own magnetics what you naturally attract and what you naturally fight off with your own energy field, something else we can consciously improve with Jupiter here for a whole year. Determination, patience & consistency is going to be needed to bring your renewed & expanded vision to life. Whatever you’re creating inside or out must be sustainable, practical and, ultimately, valuable.

Taurus is generally related to our basic, fundamental needs which is all very personal & subjective. But these aspects of life are also deeply rooted in our intrinsic self-worth, personal self-love & natural self-value. You must believe that your body is worthy of quality nutrients, your soul is worthy of intimacy and that you are fully capable of manifesting the money to function, prosper and thrive. Take a class if you desire to learn about investing, finance, & generational wealth while considering long-term investments this year. This is a time to deepen your connection to Mother Earth, Nature & being grounded in your true Self. Spending time in Nature helps you to remember your purpose and heal your soul.

This is the time of year to renew your commitment and dedication to living the life you feel most worthy of. Give appreciation for all. It is great to reflect on what deeply supports who you are, here & now.

Gratitude unlocks energy and connects you to new resources. So use this transition into Jupiter Taurus and also the upcoming New Moon in Taurus to plant the seeds of well-being and abundance in your garden this year.
