Celebrating the New Year
While those who follow the Wheel of the Year typically celebrate "The Witches' New Year" during Samhain, I wanted to throw together this presentation/event to give us all some ideas as we head into 2024!
2024 CALENDAR
Check out this post with a full 2024 astrological (and wheel of the year) calendar! 
2024 TAROT CARD
From your favorite tarot deck, pull a “Card of the Year”. This card will be the main “theme”, lesson, or general idea for your 2024! 
To dive deeper into the meaning of this card, feel free to use the spread below:
Tumblr media
For more ideas, check out this post full of New Years Tarot Spreads!
JOURNALING PROMPTS
What are my “witchy” goals for the upcoming year? What are my “mundane” goals for the upcoming year?
What lessons or events can I reflect on from this year, to make 2024 more productive/better?
Write down one word to describe 2023.
What does 2024 look like for you?
SPELL & RITUAL IDEAS
OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW
Deep clean your home, taking specific care to sweep dust/debris out of your front and back door. Even better if you move in a counterclockwise fashion throughout your home to banish any negative energies that may be lingering! To bring in “new” ideas, hang up new decorations that align with your new year goals, or add specific herbs that align with your intentions to window sills and the top of door frames. It’s also a great time to refresh any wards or protection symbols you might have around your house!
2024 CHARM BAG
Pull together a few objects that symbolize your new year: sigils, charms, herbs, etc. and throw them together in a charm bag. Keep this bag on your person when the clock strikes 12am! Keep it stashed away, and pull it out whenever you feel the need to have some of that energy with you throughout the new year.
MANIFESTATIONS
Utilize your favorite manifestation methods to bring your goals to fruition! My personal favorites include writing my “wishes” (or goals) on a bay leaf and burning it. However you prefer to manifest certain goals, new years is a great time to do so.
MAKING “NORMAL CELEBRATIONS” MORE WITCHY
If you are going to be around family or friends for new years, there are a handful of things you can make it a bit more witchy for yourself! For example: if you are drinking, don’t forget to pour out a small offering for your deities/God(s). If you have someone to kiss at midnight, and they consent to doing so, perhaps you could both perform some kind of ritual that involves the kiss “activating” the spell – for example, perform a “good luck” working for the new year, and involve the kiss as a part of the ritual!
Whether or not you celebrate the new year, I hope you all have a great holiday season!
Friendly reminder that this post was released 3 days early for my subscribers over on my Patreon! You can become a patron for $2/month and gain access to my unreleased drafts, research notes, early access to posts, and much more! You can also join for free to be notified whenever I post, and keep up-to-date on upcoming projects and announcements!

Written Summary : Reading Jupiter's RX
🥳 HAPPY NEW YEAR‼️
This post is meant to summarize, reiterate and even channel additional messages from the reading done in my latest content for the Jupiter Retrograde through Aries ending December 30th, 2023. Although the messages are relevant to what we have experienced in Fall 2023 - now, they’re also timeless reminders of how God & our guides need us to be spiritually aligned. Never be afraid to reference this collective reading in the future! I encourage you to read the “Retrograde Receipt” content as well as watch “Redefining YOUR Strengths : Knowing YOUR Limits & Moving thru Odds” located on my Facebook Page ONLY : The Magik Mirror ! It’s often impossible for me to divulge the magnitude of guidance and information that Spirit has to offer through one piece of content. I mentally & physically don't have the composure or bandwidth to even do it. That's why I give different mediums of content that tie together for a variety of applications. Let's get started with unpacking the summary of what came through the reading & additional messages presented in the video content.
The first thing we need to truly come to understand moving forward (literally, spiritually & energetically) is that :
NOT EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT nor Responsibility!
I’ve spent a lot of time in 2023 and 2022 discussing the necessity of refusing to be a mule : carry unnecessary weight for people. There’s a difference between being a support system and sharing the load versus allowing people to project, use and dump on you. People’s ideas, dreams, goals, projections, baggage, trauma, insecurities and whatever other things—positive or negative—are not necessarily your cross to bear. Everyone has their work cut out for them and its important that we ALLOW people to navigate through their work by not volunteering ourselves (consciously or unconsciously : Congo Hougan card in Reverse) to carry a disproportionate amount of their load or carry it at all. In order for community & relationships to THRIVE as a whole, each INDIVIDUAL has to do their part. This message isn’t new. Spirit continues to reiterate that through Aries astrological events of 2022-2023. This is an essential part of being aligned with your BEST. The cards pictured demonstrate the purpose behind what we were learning, healing and experiencing, specifically as we moved through this Retrograde transit. In Fall 2023, we all should have experienced major GROWTH. When reading that card the word “Maturity” came through from Spirit.
✨Spirit says :
“We have matured because we are more comfortable with risks.”
Growth comes through being able to move through imperfections and uncertainty. We cannot wait on perfection to live life and make things happen. Its been time for us to outgrow perfection seeking. Its a hinderance to progress. With Jupiter in Aries and Saturn in Aquarius, this theme & message is key. In the Saturn Retrograde Receipt of Nov. 2023 I talked about understanding space, its value and the multitude of its purpose. A message there was that “sometimes the space we’re in doesn’t have to necessarily be defined/filled and it also doesn’t have to define/consume us either, it can just be experienced and moved through.” In that portion of channeling and divining I was more focused on messaging I got surrounding space and time. However, now we are talking about how we act and move through it (Aries). And the simple answer is : you just do.
✨Spirit says : 
“Being able to move through it (space/time/an experience) doesn’t mean you are accepting it.”
This is also a part of maturing : being able to keep going & flowing despite circumstances of the past & present while also knowing you don’t have to settle. The journey can & will continue if you allow it!
When we allow ourselves to move through uncertainty (and fear) we are also able LEARN. We all know learning is a part of growing. A major healing component of this retrograde experience was in taking steps necessary to continue our growth vs. stunting it. The catalyst to our GROWTH was in better understanding SELF CONTROL. This was another card that showed up in the reading, obviously pictured above. Things that Spirit conveyed to me synonymous with SELF CONTROL are : Boundaries, Balance, Self Awareness, Discipline and Preservation. Think about how all of these concepts blend together to help you maintain a sense of power within and over YOURSELF. What did these things look like to you in 2023 and how did they help you grow, especially through the Fall of 2023?
✨Spirit says :
“Some of you are still overreacting & operating in extremes because you’ve let someone/something have power over you, but the key here is knowing : when your internal is imbalanced, so is your external”. 
SELF CONTROL is a key component to GROWTH because we must be in right relationship with our own energy before even attempting to dictate someone else’s. This is why the message of PRIORITIZING YOURSELF has also come through many times in 2023, especially the Fall season! Spirit wants us to know it’s okay to be selfish, pour into yourself and make sure your needs are fulfilled. Your cup will not always runneth over.
The GROWTH we needed wasn’t free! It may have come at the expense of sacrifices and separations for us to be aligned with ourselves the way God sees fit. However, some of that Growth may have wounded our pride and humbled our spirits. That wasn’t God’s purpose though, It was to show you Freedom & Self Control : the power you have over YOU.
✨Spirit wants us to know that :
“YOU DON’T HAVE TO…. “
No need to force anything : self or others. The only thing you have control over is YOU & that is MORE THAN ENOUGH! Flowing is still a form of movement, but it is not forceful. When we understand that and look at our strengths through the eyes of God — It may be time to redefine what our abilities....
Contemplations :
The Reversed card presented from my NOLA Voodoo Tarot , shows a man playing a drum, surrounded by water. The water could be representative of his own outpouring of energy/vitality , with the drum being the vessel/medium he is channeling that through. With this card being reversed, Spirit poses a few questions that all connect to being unconscious of the ways we are outpouring energy. Individually, we may not even be aware of how we can hurt & hinder ourselves and others by not honoring our energy. Here's a few questions to that can be used to prompt meditations for you within yourself & with Spirit.....
Am I unmotivated & uninspired or unaligned with where I’m trying to force my energy?
Am I flowing or being passive aggressive/ over-giving / too accessible?
Is there really are driving factor / influence forcing me to do/be something or am I driving & forcing myself?
Does imperfection stop me from trying?

So, as far as New Year’s Resolutions go, I’ve become a fan of them. I think having long-term and short-term goals and actually sitting down and figuring out what they’ll take Present Me (rather than the overpowered Future Me I imagine in my mind) to get done, has been the thing that has fundamentally shifted my perspective on life at large. We currently live in Hack Culture, where we want things to take as little time as possible. But I’ve never wanted to be described as a hack. So in terms of quality of life, I’ve personally found that sprinting through everything leaves little time to notice changes in ourselves, to appreciate the beauty of the things we’re speeding past, or to understand what our Best looks like when we give ourselves adequate time to plan and realistic outcomes to want. I have been long-stuck in the Procrastinators Paradox Model of leaving myself as little time as possible to get something done so that the result is “the best I could do in the little time I had…” instead of “the best I could do.” and that habit has been a hard one to break, but it now guides me when determining actual reality and the time things really take when it comes to goal setting!

Happy 1st day of December, everyone! ❄️ Can you believe that we made it to the final month of the year? Only thirty more days to go and then it's hello to 2024! 🍾 December is an excellent time to reflect on the previous year and to prepare for the year to come.
As for this month's happenings, we have winter commencing on the 21st, and we have Christmas, of course, on the 25th. The 25th is a Monday, so for some of you, you may be enjoying a three-day weekend! ⛄ We also have the final moon of the lunar calendar rising into the sky on the 26th of this month, closing out the lunar year with the Cold Moon, named so because, well, it's cold. 🌕
In other astronomical news, the Geminid meteor shower will take place this month on the 13th, so be sure to gaze up to the stars that night around 9PM! 🌠 It's one of the most active showers of the year, and it's almost always cloudy, but maybe we'll be able to see it this time! 😁
And to those born in this month of the Cold Moon, happy birthday! 🎂 You may know that your birthstone is turquoise, but did you know that you have two birth flowers? 💐 Holly and paperwhite narcissus!
In closing, I want to thank all of you for making it to the beginning of the end of another year! 🥳 I'm going to end each post this month with a question that will get you contemplating what this past year has done for you and what you can change next year (here's that reader participation I talked about yesterday). Write out your answers in a journal, or word doc on your phone or computer, or maybe even write them in the comments if you want to share! 😊 Let's start this off on a positive note: What goals did you achieve this year? 📃

journal prompts you can use to improve your life
journaling is a really powerful habit that i love because it has helped me a lot in my transformation and healing process. it also offers us many benefits for our life. when we write down what we feel or what we want to achieve we are focusing and giving it much more clarity. through this magical practice, we can solve any type of situation or problem. It helps us to get rid of fears and anger. my favorite way is to ask myself questions that I can answer, this gives me more clarity and concentration. i recommend doing it on paper in fact i have my own notebook in which every day i carry out this wonderful practice.
✨ some of its benefits are:
helps reduce anxiety and depressive thoughts.
improves cognitive capacity, writing by hand activates many neural networks and, consequently, improves our cognitive capacity. In addition, it also emphasizes that this activity promotes prospective and working memory.
helps cultivate discipline
improves memory
it helps us to create habits moreover, writing on paper those "tasks" or habits that you want to integrate into your life, makes your brain catalog them as "important actions" and it is more likely that you fulfill them in the day. What happens is that your reticular active system (SAR) files them as actions that you must accomplish.
✨ journal prompts ideas
for the morning - have a great day and focus on the positive and what we want to accomplish today.
how do i want to feel today?
what should i focus on?
how do i need to act today to get closer to my best self?
what should i avoid?
what can i do to have a great day?
what would i like my day to be like?
today…(the things you will do, how you will feel)
today no…. (the things you want to avoid and not focus on)
for times of stress or anxiety.
how am i feeling?
what has caused me to feel this way?
have i felt this way on other occasions? is it a pattern i am repeating?
how would i like to feel?
what should i focus on?
what would make me feel good right now?
is there anything i can do right now to fix it?
how would i like to act the next time this situation happens?
how would my best version of me act in this situation?
is there anything I can do to make this better?
to become our best version
what would my best version look like?
what things should i change to get closer to my best version? (like thought patterns, habits…)
what can i do to get closer to becoming my best version?
what do i commit myself to every day to be closer to this version?
what would my desired life look like 6 months from now?
what would my desired life look like 1 year from now?
what are those thought patterns or limiting beliefs that prevent me from living my life the way i want?
what is it that makes me feel fearful or insecure? (make a list and next to it you can replace the negative affirmation with a positive one).
write down 5 positive affirmations of how you want your life to be from now on and commit to repeating them daily.
to focus on new goals or habits
what habits would i like to implement in my life from now on?
what habits do i need to remove from my life?
what would my desired routine look like?
what can i do to achieve this?
what would be my dream lifestyle?
what can i do to achieve it?
what are my goals?
how can i get closer to them?
do i feel capable?
if not, what is stopping me?
what can i do to change that thinking?
against negative thoughts
where does this thought come from?
how does it make me feel?
how would i like to feel about it?
what thoughts would i like to have?
from now on i commit myself to…(list of positive beliefs you will have from now on)
for the evening, to end your day on a high note and prepare for the next day.
3 things i am grateful for today
how did i feel today?
what can i improve tomorrow?
what should i focus on more tomorrow? (e.g. goals)
how would i like to feel today?
these are just a few examples, you can use them if they help you or invent your own, the important thing is that they help you feel better or whatever you want to achieve at that moment.
it is important to write every day, even if you feel good, write how your day was, what you want to improve, what you can do to make it better, anything! but this habit is very powerful and will improve your quality of life a lot.
