This is New Moon in Aries. Depending on where you live it is either today (Sunday), or tomorrow, a time of new beginnings.
New Moon is a time to withdraw from the hustle and bustle and reflect on our lives. What do
we want to shift? What do we want to attract? It is a time to focus and to set intent.

This New Moon is in Aries. It is the beginning of a new cycle. In a sense it is the New Year – astrologically it is the New Year. Aries is the first constellation in our cycle of twelve, the first sign of the zodiac. So, at this time, the intent we set is really affecting the rest of the cycle.
The Universe seems to be saying “take this time and reflect well”. The weather faery here in Toronto and in many other places has brought sleet, rain, freezing rain and snow, the perfect formula to keep us quiet, indoors and able to reflect.
Aries is about new beginnings. It’s a fire sign, so it helps us to ignite our imaginations and lights a fire under us so that we have the impetus to move, to set new ideas into motion.

Before you do that, though, it is wise to understand where you are aiming, where you want to arrive at the end of the journey. So, take a moment or two and ask yourself these epic questions:
- Who am I truly? What do I believe in? What are my values?
When I did this, I realized that one of my beliefs is that healing does not have to be painful. It can be fun and an adventure. That’s how I prefer to look at it. It’s exciting to learn more about myself through my personal healing.
I also believe that there are some simple healing steps that help almost everything – diet, exercise, changing the way we think and releasing emotional baggage.
- What am I passionate about?
Personally, I love to see the shift in my clients. The eyes become clearer, the skin tones change after a session. It is beautiful to see.
I also believe passionately that everyone should have some tools that they can use for self care. I love teaching these, from formal classes in Reiki and LPIT to giving tips like imagining the colour of the water in the shower changing to whatever colour feeds your soul that day. Magical.
- What do I want my life to look like?
I am pretty much living my dream. I would only ask that more of the people that need what I have to offer be able to find me.
- How can I use my passion and values to create the life I want this year?
I am meeting more people, being more visible, so that I am more of a beacon for those who resonate with what I do. And I’ll take all the help offered. If you know of someone who could use my services and you trust what I do, then I would love the referrals.
What will you discover about yourself? What will you new year look like?
Surrender to the weather and the feeling of quiet and do some soul searching. Make sure this new cycle gets off on the right foot – or the left…..
And enjoy.
