Corner View ~ Twinkle

Twinkle twinkle little star. Did you know that the star of Bethlehem the three wise men followed was actually the planet Jupiter? Yesterday we celebrated Dia de los Tres Reyes Magos, which celebrates the three wise men's arrival to greet and gift the baby Jesus. It's also Mexican tradition for children to open their gifts from under the tree on this day, we however open them on Dec. 25th.


The celebration was held at my husband's Abuelita's. There's ton of family and conversation. Cutting the Rosca and eating tamales are part of the festivities. Bite into your piece of Rosca carefully because you might be one of the lucky to get " el nino" in your slice.


{M} some how ended up with a huge slice, but did not get a baby. {L} on the other hand did. If you receive a baby then you host a "Tamalada" at your house on February 2nd which is Candlemas and the end of our Christmas time celebrations. My Tia's children got the most babies from the Rosca so the party is at her house. Everyone who got a baby must help and prepare food for the family function.



As I was warming my bones around the fire pit last night I thought I caught a glimpse of La Befana flying across the moon.Thanks for visiting my corner of the world and our cultural traditions. For more twinkle corner viewing stop by Francesca's.

Wolf Moon Energy & New Beginnings

It truly is amazing how quiting a bad habit can unlock a chain reaction psychically and mentally in one's self. Always was the search to what my mission on this earthly plain is. Toxic liquid I thought was releasing my mind actually was an ocean of obscurity. When tides ebb & pull the mysteries and beauty underneath the surface are revealed. How blind was I to try to become brighter with dimness clouding my vision. It has only been a week of sobriety, but I feel f&*#%n awesome. The Full Wolf Moon energy can be felt even now during the day time.

Happy New Year everyone. My daughter kept saying new year revelation and revolution instead of resolution, I kept correcting her but it turns out she was right. My mindset for 2015 is to take it day by day and fully live in the moments to cherish everyday. Life is a roller coaster, with eyes wide open and both hands holding on tight enjoy the ride.
