New moon in Capricorn. Also called a black moon as it is the 2nd new moon in a month. This one is all about manifesting dreams, ambitions and setting the stage for long-term success. It is a great time to take some time to sit and think about what you truly want, who you want to be or where you want to be in this next year. What is the life you truly envisioned for yourself, not what anyone expects you to do. It is a great time to start getting the foundation of setting up a more meaningful long-term plan that not only includes things to happen this year or sooner but also years down the road. Set clear intentions, focus on what matters to you, not anyone else. Take the time to self-reflect a bit, really dig in and ask yourself what habits, thought patterns that may be holding you back and the reason you feel stuck or unable to achieve what you wish, there is a high chance you will have a positive breakthrough or aha moments that shed some light on what is getting in the way or how you are holding yourself back. Remind yourself that hard work will pay off this year, but remember to be consistent and at times, okay with the slow and steady moments as well.
There may be some positive surprise opportunities and connections that pop up. Don’t shove unexpected opportunities to the side simply because that wasn’t part of the plan or timeline, take a moment to explore the curiosity as it may add more to your journey than you thought.
Work on not feeling the need to explain yourself, your goals and ideas that make you happy, only you truly know what does, not anyone else. It is ultimately up to you. This includes the work, planning and asking for the help needed along the way. Even if things don’t start immediately in January, putting the intentions out there, taking the steps to get moving or prep for when the time is right, go for it. Dream big, push yourself out of your comfort zone and try not to get caught up in the comparison game of others doing the same thing you want to accomplish.
Things you start to put your energy in today will set the solid foundation for all that is to come in 2025 as this will be the year that more things actually moving forward, going the direction more of what feels right to the core and not just the same old same old! So take a moment, journal those thoughts of what you are grateful for in 2024 and what patterns, habits, connections or situations you are releasing and not taking with you into 2025!
