Twixmas
There is something enchanted and oddly dreamy about the time between Christmas and New Year’s. The year is yawning and ready to bow out. It’s full and drunk and weaving its way to the exit as we sway in the liminal space between inertia and anticipation. Here is the timeless beat between inhale and exhale. Here in the threshold, the reverent pause, the lovely lull, this magical time of imaginings and transition. If we pay attention, we will be granted a vision, a peek into the possibilities.
.
In Norway, this time is called Romjul, meaning “not strictly bound by the rules of a holiday.” The word suggests a sacred interval—a room carved out in the year where the usual rules do not apply.
For the British, it’s Boxing Week. In Ireland, this time builds toward Nollaig na mBan, or Women’s Christmas, celebrated on January 6, when the holiday season finally closes with a day of rest and celebration for women who carried the weight of its preparation and celebration.
Some call this time Twixmas,” a clever portmanteau of “betwixt” and “Christmas,” No matter what you call it, the soul is seeking a grace period. There is a strong pull to be still and listen up; the veil is thin, and omens, signs, and symbols are plentiful.
As the world moves at a slower pace, this is a perfect time to “vision,” a practice designed by Rev. Micheal Beckwith as a guided meditation focused on four questions. This practice activates our intuition and helps gather themes for the year ahead. It is less of a vision board; it’s more of a surrender to the still, small voice of the soul. So that we can set intentions and imagine possibilities. The spirit of Twixmas invites introspection and renewal.
So, I invite you to take some time to settle down and listen up. If you want to experience the visioning process, join us at SpeakEasy on January 6th at 4 pm and on Zoom as we walk you through the simple prompts that can assist clarity and discernment for the year ahead.
