You brought all together so nicely - history, mythology, meaning of new year, words of wisdom, your own experience and reflections and much more! So beautiful and powerful. Thank you.

“simply to bring joy and beauty into your everyday life and embrace the joy and beauty that already lie latent, waiting for somebody to notice them. I’m going to be more intentional about adding beauty to my life in small ways”- so meaningful!

Wishing you the bestest of all the best this new year!

“Omens attend upon beginnings.”

And so we should be very careful and mindful about the first things we do in every new venture.

Thank you for this marvelous essay on duality and transitions Ramya! Truly one of the wisest and richest pieces I have come across. 👏 And now on to reading your Mood Board for 2025. Cheers! 🎉
