JANUARY 2021

This month marks the crossing of a threshold into a new year, with its own frequency and intention! We are moving from a time of collective breakdown and repair, to a time of balance. Despite the equanimity that the word ‘balance’ suggests, the resistance we often have to balance can result in its own chaos. As animals, we too hibernate during this time of year. For this reason, the mind - with its natural agitation and desire to “fix” - can become troubled and restless. Now is a good time to slow down and invite your consciousness to follow. If we get out of the way, nature will bring about the quiet and balance we are often too reckless to create for ourselves. This month the opportunity for transformation in the areas of love and money is high, but it can only come about through our humility and stillness.

LOVE & ROMANCE: Love is right around the corner. You may experience the temptation to engage false or temporary lovers, but they are only a distraction. Discernment is key - if it isn’t easy, you may be mistaken about your true love’s identity.

SPIRITUALITY: Collective spiritual practices are very powerful right now. Turn to your family’s traditions for strength. In the same vein, curses or conflicts in your family lineage may surface at this time. Pay attention to old arguments and patterns surfacing, especially through elders. Now is not the time to try and solve them. Allow them to show themselves and dissolve on their own.

FAMILY: Decisions should be made as a group, when possible. This is especially the case for financial or legal decisions. This month don’t “mingle money” with family (e.g. new contracts, loans, etc.); doing so will likely result in bad luck.

CAREER & MONEY: It is important to strike a balance between newness and stability this month. If you have just begun a new job, you may want to begin saving money now as well. If you have had a great deal of longevity in a particular position, you may want to ask for opportunities to learn a new skill or seek professional development. If you neglect either newness or stability, you will experience the consequence of this (i.e., either stagnation or instability) for months to come.

HEALTH: This month sexual activity is good for your health. Also, warm and starchy foods are beneficial. To promote a still mind, try meditation or getting an additional hour of sleep each night. Your body may be more tired than usual, due to the time of year. Don’t fight this fatigue, allow yourself to slow down as much as is practical.
