The astral life of the earth is young and strong between Christmas and Easter.
Those who form their wishes now will have added strength to fulfill them consistently.
H. P. Blavatsky
Writing New Year’s Resolutions is an old and well-known tradition. Catherine recalls being about 12 when she began the annual, reflective ritual which she has continued ever since. Usually, one writes personal goals of one kind or another. Instead, a worthy challenge each year is to create resolutions for the soul – both personal and collective – resolutions to support both the individual soul as well as “Anima Mundi,” the world soul. Here we will create individual resolutions to support our soul’s growth, and also heart-felt resolutions to help our world and planet today. As Ushio Amagatsu, a Master of Japanese Dance, has said, “The soul is the important thing. Form will follow.”
Catherine Ann Jones has played major roles in over 50 productions on and off Broadway, as well as in television and film. Disappointed by the lack of good roles for women, she wrote a play about Virginia Woolf (On the Edge) which won a National Endowment for the Arts Award for her first of twelve produced plays. Her films include Unlikely Angel, The Christmas Wife, and the popular television series, Touched by an Angel. A Fulbright Scholar to India studying shamanism, with over 30 years teaching graduate school as well as at the Esalen and Omega Institutes, she is the award-winning author of Heal Yourself with Writing, The Way of Story, What Story Are You Living, Freud’s Oracle, True Fables, and Buddha and the Dancing Girl. 56,000 subscribers follow Catherine’s six online courses, schedule, writing consultations, and blog www.wayofstory.com
