Consider your answers to these questions:

• What is my intention for 2012? (physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually)
• What do I want to manifest for myself, my family, business, community, world?
• Do I have behaviors, beliefs, possessions, addictions that I’m ready to release?

• Am I ready to begin something that I’ve been putting off (possibly for years)?
• How do I want to BE in 2012 and how do I want to NOT BE?
• What do I want to DO in 2012 and what do I want to NOT DO?

• Would I be served by adopting a daily practice of some kind? If so, what?
• How is my health and how well am I tending to myself with diet, exercise, self care?
• Who have I been spending my time with and who have I not been spending time with?

• What incomplete projects are lingering and waiting for my attention?
• What else would I like to consider as part of setting an intention for this next year?

Time Capsule Storage Ideas:
Once you’ve written your Time Capsule you are encouraged to keep it in a special place. Over the years Kassy’s location has changed, including; adding it as an entry in her journal, keeping it in a music box, taping it behind a favorite picture, and placing it on an altar. Most recently she’s been keeping it in a box that was made by her great-grandfather. Here are some ideas from the wonderful Earthworks Gallery located 1 mile north of Yachats on the Oregon Coast:

A Brief History of the Time Capsule by Kassy Daggett (with long quotes from Wikipedia)

“A time capsule is an historic cache of goods or information, usually intended as a method of communication with future people and to help future archaeologists, anthropologists, or historians. Time capsules are sometimes created and buried during celebrations such as a World’s Fair, a cornerstone laying for a building, or at other events.”

A little over 10 years ago we remodeled our home and added an extension. At that time we placed a Time Capsule in one of the new walls before the sheet rock was installed. We included a note in a bottle that was written to the person who will one day find it. We included a photo of the house before the remodel as well as a few small items and a copy of the daily newspaper.

“Intentional time capsules are placed on purpose and are usually intended to be opened or accessed at a particular future date.” Your 2012 Time Capsule will be opened a year later on January 1, 2013 by you.

“The 1939 New York World’s Fair time capsule was created by Westinghouse as part of their exhibit. It was 90 inches long, with an interior diameter of 6.5 inches, and weighed 800 pounds. Westinghouse named the copper, chromium and silver alloy “Cupaloy”, claiming it had the same strength as mild steel. It contained everyday items such as a spool of thread and doll, a Book of Record (description of the capsule and its creators), a vial of staple food crop seeds, a microscope and a 15-minute RKO Pathé Pictures newsreel. Microfilm spools condensed the contents of a Sears Roebuck catalog, dictionary, almanac, and other texts. This first modern time capsule was followed in 1965 by a second capsule at the same site, but 10 feet to the north of the original. Both capsules are buried 50 feet below Flushing Meadows Park, site of the Fair. Both the 1939 and 1965 Westinghouse Time Capsules are meant to be opened in 6939. More recently, in 1985, Westinghouse created a smaller, Plexiglass shell to be buried beneath the New York Marriott Marquis hotel, in the heart of New York’s theater district. However, this time capsule was never put in place.

“The Crypt of Civilization (1936) at Oglethorpe University, scheduled to be opened in 8113, is generally regarded to be the first successful implementation of a modern time capsule, although it was not called a time capsule at the time. George Edward Pendray is responsible for coining the term “time capsule.”

“During the socialist period in the USSR, many time capsules were buried with messages to the people who would live in the future communist society.

“New Zealand developed a time capsule project called “Millennium Vault” for the turn of the 20th century. The project developers buried it beneath a pyramid.

“Currently, four time capsules are “buried” in space. The two Pioneer Plaques and the two Voyager Golden Records have been attached to spacecraft for the possible benefit of spacefarers in the distant future. A fifth time capsule, the KEO satellite, will be launched in 2015, carrying individual messages from Earth’s inhabitants addressed to earthlings around the year 52,000, when KEO will return to Earth.”
