"From wonder into wonder existence opens." -Lao Tzo
You look up at the sky and wonder what's beyond. Perhaps, you are speaking to something greater. Maybe, you're simply wondering what is behind the clouds. Either way, you see something beyond the plane of your reality. You see something in your mind. That's where we want you to be.

Wonder can also be a feeling of surprise mingled with admiration, caused by something beautiful, unexpected, unfamiliar, or inexplicable. desire or be curious to know something or a feeling doubt. What is something that you wonder?

Theme: New Beginnings 

For the past two years, many have been asking, "When will we get back to normal?" The stark reality is, we are living in the "New Normal." As we learn to accept our situation as it is, we enter 2022 with new hopes, dreams, and desires to shed the negativity from the past.  

What is your new beginning? Is it letting go of past hurt, or working toward a goal? Or it could simply be being more of who you are. 222 is considered an "angel number" and can be seen as  “beginning,” which ties in with its meaning as a representation of a new start. What are you trying to begin (or begin again)? Let 2022 fuel your desire to achieve your dreams.

Open Call for Our Winter 2021 Issue

Fire & Ice encompasses the duality of winter symbolism. Winter is stark. It brings the death of nature around us as the darkness of night consumes waking hours. We find ourselves eating and sleeping more, matching animal habits to find comfort. And yet, this is the time of year where people come together and find warmth in gratitude and inspiration to change. We share stories by the fire and gifts from the heart. What does being "cold" this winter mean to you? How do you find your warmth?
