Magical New Moon/New Year Monday Morning Check-In Post

How Are You??!!

The moon will be new at 4:27 pm Central Time in the sign of Capricorn today, Monday, December 30th.

It’s a rarity to have two new moons in one month’s time, the first one was on December 1st. That it happens as we concurrently crest into New Year’s Eve makes it seem all the bigger like the entire month of December was a Universe in and of itself, and now we’re headed into a whole new one.

I like the thought that December was an outlier. It has felt like the world has been holding its breath, as we wait for Trump's inauguration and the potential of what may follow. I’ve also noticed some denial in myself and others as we’ve just tried to focus on the moment and live our lives, but the hesitation to do even the smallest of things is apparent as I observe humanity right now.

I got an email from a business owner who shared that her sales were down 25%—30% from their regular levels at this time of year, a season in which so many in the retail and service industries are dependent upon an influx of cash to help them make it through the cold and slower winter months ahead. Of course, I am speaking of those independently owned businesses and/or the employees on the ground of the corporate behemoths.

I don’t know how any of us regular people are surviving right now. I feel more and more pushed to my limit as I think many of us are, not only where money and the fulfillment of basic needs and wants come in but across the board in all areas. I wonder how much more pressure we can all take before we find ways to release it.

The release is key in receiving the new, and today is an excellent day to throw into the trash heap what we can, heal what we are able to, and open ourselves up to the new, the more, and the sparkle that still exists even as the patriarchal forces try to dim our light. I can think of no better moment than a second-in-one-month new moon in Capricorn to work this magic.

Jon and I will be sharing food with Theresa and Vasken tonight as we make magic and intend during this new moon energy. Spellcasting with loved ones makes the spells stick even more due to an increase in joy, and tonight’s meal comes on the heels of one we had yesterday afternoon with dear beings and their wonderful children.

I’ll try to avoid eating more cookies as I feel my entire body is now made of cookies.

How are you??!! Please drop me a comment below and let me know.
