The Lunar New Year for 2024 marked the year of the Dragon, specifically the Wood Dragon, so it makes sense that some parts in the United States are experiencing unusual weather, droughts, and wild fires. In Numerology, 2024 is an #8 year, which represents Abundance–now is the time to reap what you’ve sown over the past 8 years in order to prepare for the coming changes in 2025.
2025 will be a #9 year, representing the end of a chapter. It’s perfect that it will be in the year of the Snake, which is all about shedding old skin; transformation and renewal. Between now and all through 2025 there will plenty of changes preparing the way for new chapters opening up in 2026. Now is the time to release what is no longer working in your life, including old patterns that have kept you stuck. But remember that a Snake can also be charming, which can lead to deception…subscribe to my Substack for more details on 2025 and ‘Year 9’. I will be posting some wonderful insights in the coming weeks.
This week we will all be receiving some material support to help us continue to feel prepared for the coming changes, much like our Ancestors used to prepare their homes and land for the seasons.
Beginning of the week:
The start of the week looks promising on the job front. Whatever it is you do for work (or are about to get into), Spirit wants you to know that you are qualified for this role. In case you start to feel insecure about your position, or like you’re not ‘good enough’, remember that you were hired for a reason. You have what it takes to do this.
Some of you may have been feeling challenged by recent changes at work. If you are feeling overwhelmed, make sure to ask for help–don’t be afraid to delegate responsibilities to others. Some of you may be feeling pressure to perform; you may even be considering another job–if this is you, know that these feelings are preparing you for something better. Be strategic about any changes you implement with your career.
Middle of the week:
If you’ve been dealing with a problem that may not be work-related but is affecting your job, you will be able to get a handle on it this week. Solutions and/or allies may present themselves to help you with this situation. Or possibly you’ve been unemployed for a while now and have been struggling to get hired. If this is the case, you may be getting some good news soon! Keep going!
If you’ve been dealing with interpersonal issues, you may benefit from a 3rd party giving you guidance on how to resolve this. In this case, three heads are better than two–you need a neutral party to give you both a fresh perspective. If this issue is with a coworker, it’s time to escalate to the higher ups for guidance. Don’t try to figure this out on your own.
End of the week:
Mama Moon will be Full in Taurus this Friday, helping to bring even more financial and material stability, but sometimes a little shakeup is required before things can find their balance. This moon will be the last of the Supermoons this year so it will be potent for completion (I’m hoping it brings an abundance of much-needed rain here in the Northeast).
Which of your material projects need to be completed before the end of the year? What goals did you set in the first half of the year, and are you closer or farther away from reaching them? Possibly many of you dealt with challenges that felt like blocks on your path, so rest assured the solutions presented this week can help you to break through. Besides support, you may also receive some brilliant ideas from the Universe, to help free yourself from whatever is holding you back.
Be careful though–this lunation may boost your sense of freedom and adventure to the point where you may want to quit your jobs or other circumstances, without much thought to the consequences. Find a balance between thinking and acting, but please try not to act impulsively.
Side Note:
The recent election results here in the United States has left a lot of people feeling discouraged, confused, and even anxious about the future. Please try not to give in to fear-mongering, which is at an all-time high. Pluto in Capricorn is feeling restrictive, but the tension will ease up at the end of the month when it moves back into Aquarius for a very long time. As well, Mama Moon is growing and with that comes a heightened sensitivity, and possibly even illusions. Don’t believe everything you hear, see, or read.
Lastly, Mercury will be going retrograde at the end of this month, bringing with it its own sense of confusion–and we can start feeling the effects up to two weeks before during the shadow period. Point being, please breathe, take time to rest, focus on self-care, and don’t give your power over to someone else. Take a social media and news break if needed. Fear harvesting is real–don’t fall for the trap. Not everything is as it seems.
