Rev. Liz's Talk: "Best Year Ever!" 💫🐘

Dear Beloved One,

As a new year begins, many traditions around the world speak of this time as a threshold—a sacred pause between what has been and what is possible. In Unity, we understand this moment as powerful: a time when consciousness sets direction and intention becomes the seed of experience.

Across cultures, the beginning of something new is often blessed with symbols of wisdom and good fortune. One such symbol is Ganesh, known in the Hindu tradition as the remover of obstacles and the guardian of new beginnings. Metaphysically, Ganesh represents the inner wisdom that helps us begin well—with clarity, courage, and grace.

Ganesh’s imagery offers gentle guidance for creating our Best Year Ever: 

Large ears remind us to listen deeply—to Spirit, to intuition, and to one another.
A steady, grounded presence invites patience and trust rather than rushing ahead.
Obstacles, rather than being enemies, become teachers—redirecting us toward wiser paths.

Unity teaches that God is not outside our journey but within every step, expressing as divine ideas, right timing, and inner guidance.

When we align our thoughts with Truth and our hearts with Love, we naturally move forward—sometimes around obstacles, sometimes through them, always growing.

Our Best Year Ever is not about avoiding challenges—it’s about meeting life with awareness, compassion, and faith in the Presence that goes before us and within us. As we step into this new year together, may we do so with open hearts, listening ears, and a quiet confidence that the path will appear as we walk it.

With great love and gratitude always,

Rev. Liz
