Birthing my independence

Last night I celebrated the last day of the old year. One of the advantages of not being tied to any religion is that you get to celebrate the New Year twice. According to ancient tradition, the night of Samhain is when the veil is the thinnest between the worlds, so I asked for a dream to guide me.

This new year is all about me, my boundaries, my integrity. The dream I had last night showed me that I was pregnant with the most beautiful baby boy I'd ever seen. I saw his features even though he was inside me (I was 8 months pregnant in the dream) and unlike my three real life children he didn't look like his father but like me. He was healthy and glowing inside me, and I couldn't wait to hold him in my arms.

As soon as I woke up I knew what the dream meant. I'm birthing a new, stronger yet equally flexible consciousness... one that has the power to carry a vision, to shape my own future instead of  being battered by the 'winds of fate'.

This is my Sun/Son, my precious baby... The future King... How I love him already! I wonder... what will giving birth be like? One month to go!
