Hey
Reader,
It feels so exciting to start the new year with a new moon, a powerful time for manifesting with LIMITLESS possibilities!!
What is it that you REALLY want? If no-one would judge you, what is it that you secretly desire?
What a year its been!!! My personal number this year in numerology is a number 9 which is all about endings, transformation & rebirth which I feel is so apt for my year! Next year for me is a number 1 which is all about new beginnings. Want to know yours!?
As a collective next year is a number 9 year in numerology (2+0+2+5=9). Although people tend to be fearful of endings, its part of the magic! Without endings, there wouldn't be new beginnings 🌹
When we let go of old beliefs, patterns & ways of being that no longer serve us, we create space for a new reality with better health, habits, mindset and where aligned people, opportunities & experiences can enter our lives!
End of year rituals
Engaging in rituals are a powerful way to honour endings, celebrate, connect deeper to yourself, your community & the universe. You could do them or invite loved ones to join you! There are no right or wrong ways, but here are a few ideas...
Create a sacred space
- Gather a few special items for an altar. You might want to include fire (e.g. a candle), air (e.g. incense) earth (e.g. crystals) & water (e.g. flowers in a vase)
- Cleanse your space with sage, palo santo, incense, rose water or essential oils
- You might like to play some music & make yourself a cacao or hot drink
Ideas:
- Set your intention for the ritual (e.g. to celebrate & close the year)
- Meditate or do a guided visualisation
- Dance!! You could shake off the things that no longer serve you & have a song to embody the next level version of yourself
- Pull oracle cards
Journal & share:
- What are you celebrating this year?! What have you loved? What have you let go of? What have you handled better? What have you been consistent with? What did you have FUN with? What challenges have you overcome? What are you most proud of?
- What endings have happened? How can I honour them?
- What am I ready to let go of / release? e.g. physical things, stories, habits
- What are my intentions or goals for the next year?
You may also like to:
- Have a clear out of your physical space, wardrobe etc
- Get rid of any emails, photos or documents you no longer need
- Unsubscribe to anything you no longer use or want to receive

Create your own definition of success
If you measure your success based on what other people find successful, you'll likely either feel unsuccessful or you'll wonder why being successful doesn't actually feel that good.
If I measured my success this year based on income, I wouldn't feel successful. If I measure my success based on the impact I've made and how I've lived aligned to my values, I feel amazing!!!! A reminder that YOU get to decide what success is to you & you will feel amazing when you are living life aligned with your values and your purpose!!!
A reminder that we are cyclical beings and each year will likely look different. We’re not meant to be in full bloom all the time. Some years are for creating foundations, planting seeds, for nurturing, growing, planning. Others are for blooming, for enjoying the fruits of your labour. Others are for letting go, resting, rejuvenating. Some years will likely have elements of them all.
This weeks oracle reading is from Alana Fairchild's Earth Warriors Oracle:
Nourish yourself!!! Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually. What is it that you most want or need? What food nourishes your soul? What would bring you joy? peace? Notice what you are consuming, both physically & mentally and if its serving you. When you prioritise nourishing yourself, in any way, there will be a ripple effect in the rest of your life.
Here are two of my recent podcast episodes to support you in bringing more nourishment, joy, safety & pleasure into your life!
I would LOVE to hear if you listen and really appreciate the ratings and comments!!
Sending you so much love,
Effy xxx
