New Year’s Eve – Dec 31st This card shows us how to release the old and let in the new. This relates to both our external lives and our inner being.
Judgement
How appropriate to have a card of rebirth in this position. As the cycle of an old year comes to an end, a new one is ready to be born. New Year’s Eve is that threshold point just as the bear stands as a guardian at the threshold of a new life. The bear watches over the soul as it enters the mound ready for a new life. Perhaps I need to trust that someone is protecting me as I try to forge a new life from the left over parts of the old one. At the end of this year, I need to have the confidence to enter that tomb and greet the new year with a renewed sense of purpose. Life is a series of deaths – some small, some enormous – but at the end of each is the opportunity to forge something new.
ThisĀ has been the deeper message of these daily draws – healing, letting go, trust and understanding that everything moves in cycles.
