January takes its name from Janus, the Roman god of beginnings, transitions and changes. He is often depicted with two faces - one looking forward into the future and the other gazing back into the past. He acts as a guardian to the paths of new possibilities – the point at which we pause and decide which way we will go. Where will we focus our intentions, and what will we commit our energy to? He is a wonderful deity to connect with at this time of year – as those New Year potentialities come into a sharper focus as the period of celebration fades. Janus reminds us to reflect on where we’ve been while also embracing the possibilities ahead. His energy is one of balance and perspective – something we can all benefit from! At this time of year, I feel he is encouraging us to approach change with wisdom and courage. Change, even those we choose for ourselves, can be difficult and making new “good” habits takes a while. You have to repeatedly do something for it to become part of your routine and Janus’s support can help us through that transition, so that we can manifest our highest intentions.
The Wolf Moon & its Magick!
Speaking of manifesting, you may have noticed that the energy feels extra potent right now? It’s the approaching full moon! The first full moon of the year is also called the Wolf Moon – and it’s just around the corner! This full moon is brings some super powers with it as it’s the first full moon that’s reflecting the light of the waxing solar influence – everything’s starting to intensify! For me, the Wolf Moon always feels primal and powerful - a time to reconnect with my inner wildness, howl at the universe (metaphorically…usually), and look at the resolutions I’ve made, the changes I’ve chosen, and then to use a little magick to shine a light on the path ahead!
The Luring Moon Abundance Alignment Ritual Intensive: Power &
Prosperity!
The Wolf Moon also marks the opening ritual for the Luring Moon Abundance Alignment 30-Day Ritual Intensive - the first working of this powerful ritual in the new solar year. If you’re not familiar with it, this intensive is all about drawing in abundance in every form: prosperity, love, opportunities, and growth. It’s like hitting the energetic reset button and giving your goals a boost of lunar magick! And this month, I will be working this ritual for myself as well as for the clients that choose this option! The Wolf Moon also carries themes of resourcefulness, courage, and community – things that we can lean into as we progress the spiritual path. It’s a perfect time to focus on abundance in your life, whether that means aligning with material success, building stronger relationships, or simply inviting more happiness and healing into your life.
My Top Tips for Connecting with the
Power of the Wolf Moon:
1. Set Your Intentions Under the
Moonlight
Take some time on the night of the Wolf Moon to write down what abundance means to you. Be specific - what do you want to manifest, and why? Then, hold those intentions in your heart as you spend a few moments gazing at the moon. Whatever your goals, if they are intended to more you towards a more harmonious, happy and spiritually-aware state, you’re connecting with the currents of abundance and prosperity by aligning yourself with positive and progressive change.
If you’re feeling extra magickal and super inspired, why not craft a little Full Moon ritual? Even a simple ritual, when performed with sincerity and intention can create profound shifts in your mindset and the energies you attract into your life. You might want to light a candle, burn some incense, and meditate on the qualities you want to embody this year. You could also create a charm or talisman to carry with you—a physical reminder of the energy you’re aligning with, and perhaps use a favourite crystal or pendant for this purpose. Bathing rituals can also be a powerful way to connect with lunar energy – adding some milk to make the water white can add to the atmosphere, and nourish your skin at the same time!
4. Join the Luring Moon Ritual Intensive
If you’re ready to go deeper, the Luring Moon Abundance Alignment 30-Day Ritual Intensive is a perfect way to harness the energy of the Wolf Moon and work with it over a full lunar cycle. You can find all the details here: www.mayamagickal.net/luringmoon.htm.This time of year is all about planting seeds and nurturing them with intention. The darkness of winter may linger, but the light is returning, and with it, the promise of growth, transformation, and an enchanted year ahead.Until next time, stay cosy, stay magickal, and don’t forget to howl at the moon if you feel so moved!X Maya (12th January 2025)
Week-Ahead Energy Updates for
Starseeds, Lightworkers, Indigo
Children, Healers & Seekers with Daily
Affirmations to Inspire Positivity &
Alignment with the Law of Attraction!
In today’s energy update, we will be looking at the dominant energetic influences and the opportunities they’re creating for us now. We will cover the potential for energetic opposition and explore ways we can circumvent problems or mitigate challenges. And finally, I’ll draw daily cards with guidance and law of attraction affirmations that you can use to align with the current energetic landscape and enhance your positive mindset.I’ve chosen the Stranger Things Tarot for our etheric explorations today. This deck is based on the hit Netflix series and features all the familiar characters. It explores the archetypal themes of the show, in the context of the Fool’s Journey as defined by the traditional tarot – but it’s contemporary feel, and the stories within the show have me thinking it might be time for me to watch them all again! I’m sure this deck will be a powerful translator of the numinous for us today! So, sit back, relax your shoulders, take a sip of chamomile tea, exhale deeply, and let’s explore…The dominant energetic influence we can tap into over the coming week for the purpose of progressing the spiritual journey & pursuing the path to wholeness is reflected in the 6 of Cups. This is the card of the inner-child & expresses our innocence & nostalgic yearnings for simpler times. In this position, the 6 of Cups encourages us to explore the world & encounter life without cynicism, self-doubt & pessimism clouding our experience. A good way to tap into this potent current in order to progress the healing journey is to set aside some time for “play” or “fun”. Allocate time to deliberately focus on something enjoyable & spiritually nourishing so that you can set aside your adult worries for a fixed period. What would your inner-child like to do? Perhaps a walk in the rain would be fun. Maybe you could collect “treasure” on your way – bringing home special sticks, stones or leaves to use as a focus for meditation later. Or spend an evening doing some colouring or artwork & listening to music that uplifts your spirit. Be kind to yourself & show yourself some love this week.The second card identifies the potential opposition we may face in pursuit of the promises of the first card. And this week this comes in the form of the Page of Wands. This is in no way a negative card but in this position we’re dealing with the shadowed aspect of the archetype. Taking into account the guidance of the first card, this card cautions us against trying to do too many things at once. Your passion & impetuousness could tie you up in knots this week by scattering your attention & energy. If you focus on too many things this week, you may end up competing with yourself & wasting your time. Seek balance & pace yourself.And now we turn to the daily cards for the week-ahead. These cards depict & define the archetypal energetic influences we can harness to optimise our personal power & increase our inspiration in the coming days.Monday 13th January 2025…2 of Wands…Invest your ideas with energy by taking action!
