The Magic of Leap Day - a Ritual

There’s something cool that happens with a Leap Day.
Normally February 28th rests there on the calendar right up against March 1st. Like so:

But every four years those dates pull apart and this magical extra day pops up.  It disappears again afterwards, not to be seen again for four more years.
 
I imagine it looks a little like this:

It’s into that little pocket that we’ll be placing any wish made today.  And that’s where the real coolness begins.

You see, time is typically experienced linearly.  We set a goal, we take steps, we reach milestones and if we’re lucky, we eventually make our dream come true.

Linear.
 
I imagine Leap Day rituals shaking up the linear nature of our wishes.  We are slipping our wishes into a fold in time.
 
The influence is no longer linear.  I imagine it shooting out like a plane.  (Remember planes, from math class?  They go out in ALL directions!!)
 
I see the Universe taking in our wishes and shooting the energy outin all directions, in all times.

Remember that ugly duckling?  In linear time his story looks like this:

The non-linearly (the plane) version, I imagine it as looking a little more like this:
Picture
Your dream, when looked at linearly, is just beginning.
 
When looked at non-linearly…it’s already come true!
 
We’re just activating that non-linear energy by making wishes today.
