As a Gemini I very much appreciate the two personalities approach (though sometimes I feel more like 5) and this year I'm definitely resonating with The Collector. I think mine will probably be The Incubator (making spaces for community building, gathering new skills to build new things and the life I want) and The Gardener (tending to myself and those I love and being there for those I love even when they don't seem to need it).

I have just met this newsletter and therefore you by the "what if the magic is you essay", I already really like it here. I have a feeling I´ll be back here a lot. Happy New Year, wish the both parts of you a blast in living and a fulfilling time at telling.

I love the 2 personalities perspective… ruminating on which two I will choose to lean into in 2025

What a beautiful read on the first day of the new year. It reminds me of something Simone Weil writes in Gravity and Grace (I book I suspect you will enjoy) — “Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.” I’ll be digesting this all well into the new year, thank you for gifting it to us ✨ p.s. I read also Bluets in 2024 and adored it 🌀
