How to Close 2025 with Ritual, Reflection and Deep Knowing.

Dear Gorgeous Soul,

Go on, make yourself a large cuppa of something warm and a little magickal, because we have so much to chat about this week. Are you ready? Settled? Cosy? Good. Let’s begin.

We are standing at a truly potent crossroads.

The very last New Moon of 2025 arrives this Friday, the 19th.

Solstice — which I friggin’ love — is racing toward us with her golden-dark mystery.

The Omen Days journey is open (and oh, I hope you’ll join us — it’s a genuine game-changer when it comes to putting a year to bed and consciously calling in the next… just ask the last 250 people who travelled it with us 😏).

Add in Personal Theme Readings, and the Book of Winter Solstice, which is my heartfelt Solstice gift to you for being such a magnificent bean, and well… you can feel how thick the magic is in the air.

So where do we begin?

I’m starting exactly where my bones insist we do — with The Omen Days, also known as the Sacred Days or Yuletide.

These luminous days stretch from Boxing Day through to January 6th. And yes, this is where the “12 Days of Christmas” comes from — a little cultural borrowing from something far older and wiser.

Historically, these days existed to bring the Roman calendar back into alignment with the solar year. Energetically, though, they are something far more delicious.

They are considered time out of time, a liminal pause where the usual rules soften and we slip between worlds. It’s as though we step outside the calendar altogether.

And if you pause for a moment, you’ll notice that our modern culture still feels this.

That strange, floaty stretch between Christmas and the New Year — when time feels bendy, when we’re neither fully here nor there, half dreaming and half emerging. That’s not accidental.

That’s the doorway.

This is where the real magic of closing a year happens. This is where 2025 is gently alchemised, and the seeds of 2026 are quietly planted.

This is why I created the Omen Days journey — a rich, nourishing experience filled with ritual, reflection, community, and warmth.

It’s an invitation to release the tired idea of New Year’s resolutions and instead close the year in a way you can actually feel — in your bones, your body, your cells.

One that stirs ancient memory and deep knowing. I would love for you to experience that.

Registration is open until December 22nd (and we also gather together for Solstice this coming weekend), and the timing could not be more perfect — because it flows straight into what’s happening in the sky.

The New Moon in Sagittarius on December 19th is the final New Moon of 2025.

It’s believed that the heart of our Milky Way galaxy rests at 27 degrees of Sagittarius, and this New Moon activates 28 degrees — a cosmic threshold if ever there was one.

A powerful way to close the year.

New Moons are portals. They are invitations to turn inward, to recalibrate, to listen for new inspiration. Under a New Moon, insights arrive quietly, intentions take shape, and new directions begin to whisper.

With the Galactic Centre activated, the energy of this New Moon feels wide, expansive, and full of possibility. It reminds us that we are not stuck. We are not limited. We do not have to stay where we are if it no longer fits. We can simply lift our arrow… and aim it somewhere new.

So ask yourself gently: what is no longer yours to carry? What belongs in the ashes of 2025? What are you ready to release with compassion, forgiveness, and grace?

And then dream.

If you weren’t afraid — of failing or succeeding — if judgment vanished and you knew you’d be supported, where would your heart lead you?

Can you feel how this weaves straight into the Omen Days? How these energies invite you to close the year with intention, tenderness, and awareness — rather than rushing headlong into the next?

And yes, this is also where Personal Theme Readings come in.

I like to call them Opening the Doors to 2026. Rather than me waxing lyrical here (and testing your patience), you can wander over and see if one calls to you. Spaces are limited, so if you feel the nudge, listen.

Alright, beautiful one — that was a lot to receive, and I hope you felt it land rather than skim past.

Now… let’s crack on with the reading. ✨

Okay so when I asked my glorious giddy guides who they wanted to play with this week.  I was a tad surprised!  

Now if these are new to you, please let me introduce them (as not to do so would be rude!)

At the edge of the mind awaits the holy wilderness of the soul.  

It beckons you, like a great forest filled with vast mysteries and wonders.  While this mystical realm exists in a higher dimension, beyond normal reality, it is real nevertheless.  To enter this mystical realm, it’s simply a matter of having an open heart and an open mind.  

In this healing and holy place, long-sought answers to your deepest questions become known.  Ancient wisdom emerges.  Revelations about your future are revealed.  Hidden talents and abilities are activated with you.  It’s a place where miracles unfold, and your spirit can fly. 

 In the deepest sense you remember who you are.  

Okay gorgeous bean, here we are with the holiday season rapidly approaching, and yet the place of Solstice.  The longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.  

The place of release and moving into the warm, feminine darkness that nurtures and supports.  I invite you to take a long, deep, luxurious breath in through the nose and out through the mouth.  Let your face relax, your jaw relax and the worries of the day drop to the floor like soft gentle rain drops or snowflakes. 

Then I invite you to see in your mind’s eye a glorious warm dark night sky, you feel safe, you feel supported and held and as the clouds pull away  you see stars that will guide you.  Breathe that in.  Allow this gorgeous Feminine Darkness to gently wrap around you and guide you and then when you are ready pick a card or cards that call to you.

You picked yes?

Shall we go see?

DAFFODIL FAIRY

New Beginnings

You feel a tap on your shoulder, and in a flash of yellow, you see a Daffodil Fairy fly by you.  In a high, sweet voice she says, “The best is yet to be!  It’s time for a new beginning!”  With glee, you race after her into the forest.

Life goes in cycles.  Just as spring follows winter, a new cycle is beginning in your life.  In the phases of the earth, the plants die in the fall so that there can be new birth in the spring – it’s the universal dance of death and rebirth.  There’s a time to end and begin, and this is the close of one cycle and the beginning of another.

We associate the daffodil with spring, as it is one of the first flowers to emerge after the snows.  Its shape echoes the feeling of trumpeting in the new season; its colour suggests vitality, radiance, and sunshine.  

It’s time to wipe the slate clean; it’s time to release the old and start again.

It can be difficult to release familiar routines, situations, or relationships when they no longer empower you; however, your higher self encourages you to not cling to the old, but set sail into new waters.  If you find yourself afraid to let go, you are urged to face your fear and allow yourself to stretch in a new direction.

The Creatrix is at your side, and wonderful opportunities will be born in your life.  Wholeness occurs when you can say yes to both endings and beginnings.

It’s time to start a new project or a new cycle.  Life force and vitality are emerging.  Release that which doesn’t serve and support you.  Make way for a new start!

FOGGY BOG

Patience

The fog in the forest is so dense, you can’t see your hands in front of your face.  You take a step forward; the soil is soft and spongy.  You realise that you are standing in a bog and to go forward is to risk sinking deeper into the mud.

The best strategy is to be still and wait for the fog to lift.

Be quiet and still.  The time is not right to go forward now.  

It’s hard to see what lies ahead, and the truth of things may not be as they initially appear.  Events that seem one way may, in fact, be completely different.

Just as the egret exhibits great patience as he waits for a fish to emerge, so too must you be still and allow the truth to emerge.  In this state of obscured visibility, your imagination can surge forward and spark your intuition.

If you can wait long enough, your sixth sense will be ignited.  Listen to your inner yearnings and pay attention to those seemingly random thoughts.  

Water represents emotions, feelings, and the subconscious.  When the water becomes condensed as fog, it obscures the true shape of things.  We can’t see clearly the way we can in the light.

Don’t allow unexamined emotions to overwhelm your growth.

Have patience.  Wait until the fog lifts before taking action.  The truth will emerge in time; you just need to go deeper.  

Follow your intuition.  

GUARDIANS OF THE LAND

Protection

“You are safe.”  These words seem to emerge from the land and radiate from the trees to echo in your soul.  You hear these words again and again.  

The Sacred Guardians of the Land are whispering to you, “You are safe.”  

You know that you are protected and cared for.  You can feel tendrils of their loving energy wrap around you and embrace you.  Their unleashed power cocoons you in safety.

You are enough, just as you are.  No matter what has happened or occurred in the past, the truth is that you are absolutely and unconditionally enough as you are.

You are loved.  You are cherished.  

Do not be concerned about outside forces and the judgements and expectations of others.  You are protected in your own energy field.  Envision a protective shield around yourself and around your home.  Spend time with people and in situations that uplift your energy rather than draining it.

You are safe and surrounded by a glorious protective shield.  You are not alone; your life is guided and protected by higher forces.

Within this knowing-ness you can soar to great heights.  Breathe wee one.  Trust.  

Oh my giddy aunt!  Those glorious beasts were delicious.  How did they resonate for you? 

So darling one, wishing you a week of ease, grace and flow.  Don’t get tangled in any one else’s stuff, tinsel or lights.  If it resonates for you to come join Omen Days – please do.  If  you want to find out your Personal Theme, please do.  If you just want to be left the fuck alone and celebrate Solstice as you like – grab the Winter Solstice book.

See you next week.
