Ahhhh, words – I love them.
Every year during the Season of Epiphany (the season in Christianity that remembers the star that is said to have guided the Magi to the Christ Child), I love to choose a “Star Word” which I hope will ‘guide’ me (as a star) in the coming year to ‘epiphanies’ and “ah-hah” moments of life.
The word I’ve chosen for this year is ‘OPEN.’ I want to be ‘open’ to what the Universe/Creator/By-Whatever-Name has for me in terms of personal growth, relationships, expansion for ‘Soulistry’.
I want to be ‘open’ to possibilities, learning, sharing, networking and …
What about you? What word do you choose to guide your year?
It could be anything!
Write the word down and when something happens to confirm your Star Word in the coming year, make a note of it in your journal. At the end of the year, read what you’ve written throughout the year, see how you chose the word that was right for you because you are intentional about this choice because whatever word you choose, it will be the right word for you.

My word has to be patience -I need lots more than I have. Patience to manage my reactions to some of the things Chris does or doesn’t do in his increasing memory issues.
Focus on a word would not seem to be right for me as my creative edge is not there, It is in visual art. From that edge last Fall emerged two key paintings: “Seek and ye shall find” representation of the Magi seeking a king and “Wonderous Star” a stylized six pointed star with a downwards pointer. This latter then will be for me what you have suggested a word to be.
Shalom/salaam.
David, I love it that you have found your own way. You’re welcome to post a link to these two paintings so that I and others may be blessed. I’d love to see them – especially the one you have named “Wondrous Star”.
