Mystic Heart Spiritual Center is |
Mystic Heart is a welcoming and accepting Spiritual Community that supports, promotes, and celebrates your growth in body, mind, and spirit. We are an Independent Interfaith Community, where people of all ages, races, creeds, ethnicities, sexualities, and abilities come together, not as groups separated by their differences, but as human beings celebrated for their individuality. We welcome all faith paths, philosophical points of view, and ways of life that acknowledge and honor the Divine, and support and uplift the growth and evolution of the planet and its beings. We see Evolution and Creation as two aspects of one process that is forever moving life forward, and we understand that each of us is an integral part of that process, leaving our direct imprint on the evolution of humanity.
January Message from the Rev…
 |
January, a period of relative quiet and deep reflection after a season of celebration, if only we can settle our minds and let it be. It is a time of new beginnings…if we choose it to be. Last year has come to a close with all of the ups and downs behind us. The coming year has yet to unfold…in great Beauty, Joy, and Possibility…if we believe that it can and say that it will. The word at the forefront of my mind this year is potential. What stories will we write, individually and collectively, in the coming year? Will we tap into the gifts that have been given us? |
The theme at Mystic Heart for 2025 is Through the Lens of Story, and in the month of January we will learn to Be Not Afraid. We will acknowledge the power of humanity’s stories throughout the ages, and how they have shaped history on planet earth. We will look at the seasonal stories that serve as a framework how they affect us individually and collectively. And we’ll be encouraged to go within to uncover our own stories, those that uplift and expand us, as well as the ones that limit our experience of life.
What kinds of stories might we examine? Here’s an example – many people think that December 25th marks the end of the Christmas Story, not realizing that the season actually moves into a 12-day period of reflection meant to lead us to deeper wisdom. How might extending the celebration of Christmas bring insight, preparing us for the next leg of our journey?
Another example – in the month of January, we honor the life of one man who helped change the course of history…a man who had a dream, and who encouraged us to dream. His life was an example of what can be accomplished by attending to the stories we tell. What insight might we gain from reflecting on (and living by) his powerful message?
Each of us is the author of our own experience. Join me in viewing world events Through the Lens of Story and becoming a conscious creator in your own life and as we move into a New Year filled with possibility.
