Once a year, a cosmic alignment unfolds as the Sun converges with the transformative energy of Pluto in the sky. This year, the cosmic dance takes on an extraordinary hue.

On January 20th, the Sun bids farewell to Capricorn, stepping into the innovative realms of Aquarius. Just a few hours later, Pluto follows suit, joining hands with the Sun in this celestial journey into Aquarius.

🌟 Why is this year different?
The convergence of the Sun and Pluto in Aquarius speaks to your sense of self and your connection to your power. Sun and Pluto have not been conjunct and entering Aquarius together on the same day in as long as I can go back in time on my astrological software. Its a once in a lifetime kind of energy.

Please, Join us in a Ritual of Cosmic Rebirth. Feel free to do all or part of the ritual. An experience crafted to align your energy with the cosmic dance, unlocking the potential for personal growth, strength, and renewal.

I read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho for the first time in 2018. Long story short I fell in love with the book. It’s such an easy and quick read. If you haven’t already read this beautiful and magical novel at least once (Iv read it at least 3 times and listens to it once) it should definitely be added to your reading list this year!

A young shepherd embarks on his own journey searching for a hidden treasure near the pyramids in Egypt. Without giving too much away, his journey continues with exploration and self discovery. Learning what the word “treasure” means and how to follow one’s heart.
The novel skillfully combines words of wisdom, philosophy, and simplicity of meaning and language, and this is what makes it so much more enchanting in my eyes.

Day 1: Moon Journaling

New Moon in Capricorn
January 11th, 2024

The Capricorn new moon refers to the new moon that occurs within the zodiac sign of Capricorn. Capricorn is an earth sign associated with ambition, discipline, and practicality. When the new moon falls in Capricorn, it amplifies these qualities and provides an opportunity for setting goals, planning, and focusing on long-term aspirations.

During the Capricorn new moon, it is a favorable time to reflect on your ambitions and career goals. It encourages you to take a practical approach and create a solid foundation for your future endeavors. You may feel motivated to work hard, be more disciplined, and make practical decisions that align with your long-term objectives.

This new moon can also bring a sense of responsibility and a desire for success. It is a good time to evaluate your priorities and make any necessary adjustments to achieve your goals. Setting realistic and attainable targets, as well as developing a well-structured plan, can be beneficial during this time.

Overall, the Capricorn new moon is a time for grounding yourself, focusing on your ambitions, and taking practical steps towards achieving them. It encourages discipline, responsibility, and long-term planning to manifest your desired outcomes.

Happy Manifesting!! 🌚♑️

Moon journaling is a practice where you record your thoughts, feelings, and observations during different phases of the moon. It can be a way to connect with the cycles of nature, reflect on your emotions, and set intentions for the future.

Moon journaling is a personal practice, so feel free to adapt it to your own preferences and needs. You can also incorporate other elements like drawing, collaging, or using specific symbols or colors that resonate with you. The key is to make it a regular practice and allow yourself to explore and connect with the energy of the moon.

To start moon journaling, you will need a notebook or journal where you can write down your experiences. Here are some steps to guide you:

See you tomorrow for the FIRST journal entry of the year! 🌚✍️
