What Do You See in 2003?

Even though many Pagans celebrate the New Year at Samhain, Solstice or Yule, the new calendar year is upon us. Do you have a resolution to make for 2003?
What do you hope changes? What do you hope stays the same? What do you think the world will be like at the end of 2003?
What national and/or world events will be played out? Will things be better or worse? Got any predictions to declare?

| 2003...hmmmmmm...... | Dec 30th. at 6:04:30 pm EST |

i think we shouldn't worry about too far into the future. but that is only my opinion. i tend to worry one day at a time, but if it is nessecary, i will worry aboutlater dates and times. but to give my honest opinion, i think there will be less terrorizing on all parts of the planet. there has already been enough blood spilled in ww1 and ww2, and all the other wars. thank you for taking the time to read this. :)

I have decied to not worry so much about the state of the country as much as I will attned to myslef. As selfsish as that sounds, I believe if I consintrate on a more peaceful soul within, I will be more prepared to react in a positive and productive manor that will adevntually offer hope to other. In the event the need arises on such a national platform again. Blessed Be.

Wow, it looks like everyone is kinda on the same wavelength. I ,like a lot of you, am also concentrating on improving my own life opportunities and building upon the love of those closest to me, while still hoping and wishing for the best for all in the coming year, despite that constant sinking gut feeling I get when my mind wanders to the conditions of our country and the really scary people behind it. Good luck and positive thoughts to all of you in the year 2003.

| 2003? Already?! | Dec 30th. at 3:14:18 pm EST |

2003 sounds like a made-up year from a sci-fi movie. :) Where are my flying cars...it's "The Future" already!
Seriously, I am upset about the direction this country is headed what with all the corruption, sabre-rattling, environmental concerns and the like. But I have faith...because these things have been around for years, but now we are more aware of them. Now we are in a position to affect change!
We seem to be stuck in a rut of bloated patriotic posturing, and I's like to see us break out of that tired old line and also concentrate on the world community. Not neccessarily poking around in other people's business, but being good neighbors.
So I guess I'm saying that I just want everything to be better. Now that a lot of "dirty laundry" has been exposed, maybe we can start to heal together and forge a slightly less corrupted society. :)
Namaste!

I don't like what I feel is coming this year. I hope I am paranoid and just plain wrong.
It is very important to keep our families close and the positive energies flowing.
Who knows, hopefully it will all work out for the best! Time tells all tales and what's meant to happen will.
Live life like today is your last day!
Happy New Year Everyone! I'm gonna try my darndest to be totally positive and have hope!

Just hold those close to you in the coming year, and never take love for granted. We don't know if there will be war or peace, so treat each day as the gift that it is...

| Pessimist Vs Optimist | Dec 30th. at 7:54:49 am EST |

| Moon (New York) | Age: 41 - Email |

For myself I am planning a year of financial recovery. I am optimistic about starting up an e-biz and hopefully getting myself out of the red I have been in for so many years. I am determined to turn things around for myself. Wish me luck. I think I will need it.
On the other hand, however, I am very pessimistic about the state of this country and the lousy politicians who are at the helm. I think we are in for the ride of our lives, for they are hellbent of starting this war and on taking all our freedoms away from us. We are going to be Bushwacked all the way and I am very fearful of what little will be left to salvage when it is all over. America as we knew it is slowly dieing financially, spiritually, politically and morally. I think we will see civil uprising against the gov't and I think the gov't will retaliate very harshly to it. We are all terrorist suspects now whether we like it or not. These are sad days for America and I believe they will get even sadder as 2003 ripens.
Since my pessimism outweighs my optimism, I have vowed to focus wholly on the personal goals I have set for myself and to leave the news channels off. Propaganda angers me. I will try to remain positive. I think that is all we can do right now unless we want to end up with the Feds breaking our front door down and hauling us away. Peace to all.

Blessed Be 2003,
Stormwolf out. . .

| What To See In 2003? | Dec 29th. at 11:27:12 pm EST |

I'm no expert by any means but I came across this Numerology report about 2003 and thought that I'd go ahead and post it, just to jump start things a bit. I hope it lends some guidance to you for the coming year. : )
In Numerology, 2003 is a Five year, because the numbers that make up the year add up to five. In a Five year, you can expect action and lots of change in the world. The dynamic number Five shakes up our preconceived notions about the way things should happen. The best general advice in a Five year is to expect the unexpected, and prepare for excitement and change. The numbers Two and Three are known as "Pinnacle Numbers" and represent 2003's underlying themes. The number Two encourages us to respect and understand the thoughts and perspectives of others who might not share our own personal philosophies. Agree to disagree, and remember: the world would be a boring place without a variety of beliefs and opinions. The Three focuses on our ability to communicate, and encourages us to be clear and succinct in our dealings. A Three Pinnacle puts the emphasis on saying what we mean, and meaning what we say. Glitches in communication are also likely this year, so it's best to be prepared. Be sure to charge up that cell phone battery, address your mail correctly, and back up your computer to avoid annoyances and delays.
Happy New Year ( in the calendaric sense anyway :D )
Moon Flower
P.S. My resolution for 2003 is to find my niche in magick and to define truly what I want to do as a profession.
