NEW YEAR 2021
Dear crystal lovers,
Happy new year! I hope that you are all doing well.
2020 was so extreme for all of us in so many ways both individually and collectively. Today I’m giving you an update on how this journey was for me, and what I’m up to these days.
As an energy worker I definitely knew that 2020 would be crazy - I guess all energy workers did, but none of us could possibly anticipate how it would play out. What we deal with as energy workers is probabilities, and it seamed that all of us had very different ideas of what the journey would be. However we all knew this would be a time of great contrast, polarization and confusion in the effort to evolve individually and collectively. Are we there yet? Absolutely not. But in the void we are all finding ourselves in now there is an opportunity to contemplate how we wish to live in the present moment and in the future. We have an unprecedented opportunity to consume differently, pollute less, and take care of each other in different ways than we are used to. It is an opportunity for us to evolve our consciousness, to be innovative, to be active creators, and take back the power we have outsourced and given away in order to fit into modern society. Right now we actually have a chance to reinvent everything from scratch and reset our values as individuals, nations and as a species.
2020 was also a time when an increased amount of people were seeking guidance from energy workers, and in many cases they were met with misinformation. Energy workers are no different from anyone else in that regard. We get lost on our tracks trying to predict what is going to happen and when, determining what our roles are and overstepping boundaries in regards to telling others what to do.
Many times this year I have written a blog post or made a video, but just couldn’t bring myself to post it because I knew that I wasn’t in the right sate of mind to provide you with the light and love that wanted to give. Eventually I figured that I would take the year off to give myself a moment go gather my thoughts before I said anything.
I lost my balance many many times in 2020. At times I was in chock, panicking or angry, but I found new ways of getting back to my center and that is what I want to talk about today. Also I want to let you in on why I’ve been so quiet and what I’ve been up to.
The first personal challenge for me was relocating. When the initial shutdown in Denmark happened it was far from ideal having our 3 year old son locked up in an apartment in the city, so we made the decision to spend as much time as possible in my parent’s summerhouse in the suburbs. This put a lot of pressure on the logistics of the web shop and the time I needed to spend on social media communicating with you guys, so I had to readjust. It was a huge change in scenery from what I preferred, but along the way I discovered the pleasure of slowing down and acceping the circumstances. I even discovered that I have a knack for gardening.
I spend a lot of time communing with nature in the woods or at the beach which I found to the most therapeutic activity for me.
The second personal challenge was being flexible both with my physical surroundings and my emotions. I really had to stretch my imagination to set up new avenues of income, and in the autumn I decided to work with my husband in his company. It definitely was a tough pill to swallow that I had to put my companies on hold, and it took me a long time to come to terms with it. Looking back it was such a blessing though. When the decision to shift focus finally arrived, my work with Aviuvi and Adhiakara had become such a struggle in terms of logistics that it was a huge relief for me to put everything on pause. Plus I actually love working with my husband, and now we get to spend time together have a lunch date once in a while.
The most rewarding part of 2020 was that I got to spend so much time with my son, endless hugging and kissing, playing with lego for hours and hours, foraging tons of blackberries, creating beautiful art, and making a garden with more than 40 edible plants together - I don’t know that I would have allowed myself the privilige of spending that much time with him, had it not been for this extreme year.
Overall 2020 was a much needed opportunity to take steps in a direction that is even more in alignment with my true values. I’m still learning to have patience and accept the aspects of my surroundings that I don’t have the power to control. I do however have the power to control my own emotions and step into my individual sovereignty. Most of all this year I want to stay clear and use these challenges as a catalyst to improve my life.
Obviously I’ve been stepping up my crystal game more than ever this year. I’ve been wearing my trusted Herkimer Diamonds for clarity every day but also Hematite and Black Tourmaline bracelets for grounding. Selenite has been all around our home for cleansing and Quartz Geodes for unity and comfort. In fact I have a bunch of amazing new Geodes for the shop in 2021 that I can’t wait to show you! Also there is more art coming up soon and hopefully few brand new products later in 2021, so I would say that I’m cautiously optimistic (and really excited) about this year for Aviuvi.
I hope this post was of value to you - perhaps some of you can relate to my journey or find it inspiring.
Lots and lots of love to you and yours!
