Embracing the New Moon in Capricorn: A Time to Reflect and Manifest for 2025
As we approach the end of 2024 and welcome in the New Year, the New Moon in Capricorn on December 30th offers a powerful opportunity for reflection, intention-setting, and manifestation. Capricorn, my sun sign, invites us to take a moment to dream and envision what we want for the year ahead.
While many people focus on New Year’s resolutions, I encourage you to dig deeper this year and reflect on the truth that we are the creators of our own destiny.
This concept used to trigger me deeply. How could I possibly have created the challenges I’ve faced in life? If life wasn’t easy and I’ve experienced so much hardship, why would I have manifested that for myself?
Growing up, life was difficult. My mom’s illness cast a shadow over my childhood, and I had to navigate many difficult experiences, including trauma and loss. I struggled with broken relationships, unfulfilled dreams, and unthinkable grief. For years, I questioned the idea that we create our own reality.
But here’s what I’ve learned through my journey: Life is hard for many of us, and we all face trauma and hardship. And it is through these challenges that our souls grow. It is through the pain that we find the light. We learn to become who we truly are. We develop the resilience to heal, to adapt, and to support others in their journeys. If it weren’t for these difficult experiences, I wouldn’t be where I am today – able to help others heal, to guide them through their struggles, and to teach them how to tap into their inner power.
As we approach the New Year, and in the spirit of the New Moon, I invite you to reflect on what you’ve overcome in 2024. It hasn’t been an easy year for many of us. I’ve heard it from friends, clients, and through my own experience – 2024 has tested us in ways we couldn’t have anticipated. But here we are, standing stronger, wiser, and more resilient than ever before. We’ve learned that we can do hard things. We’ve grown through adversity, and we’ve made it to the other side.
What’s even more important as we step into 2025 is to acknowledge that we are the creators of our reality. I once struggled to understand how this could be true. But through healing practices such as meditation, visualization, and journaling – tools I now share with my clients – I’ve learned to shift my thoughts. I’ve learned that we can focus on the good, cultivate gratitude, and bring light into our lives even in the darkest times. This isn’t about toxic positivity, but about feeling our emotions, releasing what no longer serves us, and using powerful tools to shift our perspective.
I am deeply grateful for all of the hardships I’ve faced, because they’ve allowed me to grow and become the person I am today. They’ve shaped me into a healer, a guide, and a support for others as they go through their own difficult times.
As we close out 2024 and prepare to step into 2025, I encourage you to take some time to reflect on all you’ve been through, all that you’ve learned, and all that you’ve overcome.
Recognize the strength you’ve built, and let that fuel your vision for the year ahead. Dream big, and remember that you have the power to manifest your deepest desires. The universe is ready to support you.
Sending you so much love, light, and an abundance of blessings for 2025.
May all of your dreams come true.
