On this longest night of the year, a rare sight you won’t want to miss is right outside your doorstep. Immediately after sunset tonight, bundle up as you step outside. Turn your gaze up to the southwest area in the sky—a rare planetary event not seen since 1623. The two most prominent planets in the solar system, Jupiter and Saturn, align within .06 degrees to appear as one brilliant light, the Christmas Star. Forbes contributor and star gazing inspirationalist Jamie Carter says, The “Great Solstice Conjunction” hasn’t been this easy to see since the year 1226.” (Tom Wildoner took the photo of Jupiter and Saturn on December 8, 2020.)
Another part of this ‘exciting day’ is this. Your 5 favorite podcast conversations for 2020 are ready below. You gravitated toward conversations about opportunities, inspiration, meditation, searching for peace, and clarifying your message, which reminds me of a Seth Godin quote. “Define who you are by what you do.”

Conscious Attentive Leadership Mentoring
After listening, do the following three C.A.L.M. Activities:
- Take this risk: Donate and watch the “Great Solstice Conjunction” tonight.
- Apply Self-Compassion: A Metta Meditation. Meditation for happy people.
Find a comfy position to go inward. Breathe gently while you close your eyes. Breathe out any tension in your shoulders. Release any tension between your brows. Observe your chest rising and falling. Lengthen your exhale by a count of one. Inhale with ease. Notice how you are supported by what you are sitting on. Continue breathing for a few more minutes.
- Bring to mind your loved ones. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind your neighbors. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind your fellow citizens in town/city. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind your fellow state citizens. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind our nation of citizens. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind all the children in the world. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind all the people in the world. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind all living beings in the world. As you breathe out, send them thoughts of loving-kindness. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bring to mind all people and all living things. Have them embrace you. Feel all the loving-kindness around you and within you. Keep breathing a few more inhales and exhales.
- Bless all beings everywhere; may you accept your changing self and accept those around you. As you exhale, put your hands together in a prayer position. Gently press your thumbs to your forehead as you bow forward. May the light in me honor the light in you. Namasté.
- Welcome Appreciation: I appreciate you so much. Thank you for tuning in and committing to evolving yourself as you lead others. I am grateful we made it through the most challenging year of our lives with all the gifts and trials and tribulations. Too many losses in one year. I am grateful for a resilient spirit.
