Brainstorming my next blogging challenge
Day 101 of daily blogging! The free-form writing is feeling strained, so I'm craving a new challenge beyond just sustaining my streak. This week I'll brainstorm themed challenges - emotions, elements, tarot cycles. Present me is savoring the opportunity to choose what's most enriching.
I've decided to continue with my daily blog, so here we are at Day 101!
The free-form of writing is starting to feel, funnily, a bit strained. I've kept my form pretty loose, writing what was on the top of my mind at the moment, and somewhere at the last third of the challenge, I implemented daily doodling.
But now I crave a new challenge – something beyond just "sustaining" my daily streak.
I think I'll spend this week brainstorming what that challenge could be and then explore that challenge starting next week.
Many ideas come to mind, like themed weekly challenges. Maybe I'll spend a week exploring a category of emotions, colors, or elements (water, fire, air, earth). Perhaps even animals or suits of tarot (cups, wands, swords, pentacles).
I'm even contemplating daily tarot pulls for a number of days – a whole lunar cycle, maybe? Although this Wednesday is a New Moon, which would result in cutting the week-long brainstorming sessions short to begin a 28-day lunar cycle challenge.
There are lots of options, and this is where past me would get overwhelmed by the choices. Present me is instead savoring the opportunity to choose what is most enriching and enlivening.
Since I'm still undecided, I'll likely give a few options a trial run this week.
Tomorrow I'm feeling called to give a one-card pull a shot on this blog. I'm eager to explore what that would look like, how it would feel, and how it could deepen my relationship and practice with tarot.
That's all I'll share for the public blog today, as I feel I've earned a bit of a break!
Thank you for being here – I'm so looking forward to this next evolution of writing on the blog.
Sincerely,
Nadine of the New Moon ♥
