New Moon December 2025

Hello Moonbeams!!!

The New Moon in Sagittarius rises just two days before the Solstice — a potent pause point where endings and beginnings breathe into one another. This is a Moon that asks us to spiral inward for a moment, to feel into where we truly want to aim our energy next.

Sagittarius is the centaur — bow drawn, arrow lifted toward the stars. That arrow is said to point toward Antares, the heart of the Scorpion, a star long associated with awakening the heart chakra and calling us toward our deepest desires. We can choose where we aim… but once the arrow leaves the bow, the rest is surrender. Trust. Allowance. Clearing. Renewal.

This Moon reminds us that release is part of creation. With an open, accepting heart, we let ourselves feel whatever rises — without judgment — knowing that what clears makes room for what’s meant to arrive.

Venus, the Goddess of Love, is active under this New Moon, weaving in a strong feminine current and bringing relationships to the forefront. This is a beautiful moment to wish, to soften, and to get honest about what we truly desire in connection — with others, and with ourselves. New Moon wishing is a deeply yin practice. The Moon is yin to the Sun’s yang, and the New Moon is the most receptive point of the cycle. And just like all sacred dualities, this darkest moment carries the greatest potential for new life.

 

So ask yourself gently:
*What do I want to explore?
*What do I want to learn?
*Where am I being called to expand?

Looking back at the past year — whew. It’s been a wild, uncertain, sometimes shaky ride. One that could have hardened us… but didn’t. Now is the moment to gather the lessons, digest them slowly, integrate the wisdom — and then release the stories of why and how. Let them go. The medicine is here, in the present moment.

*Notice what’s bringing you joy now.
*Notice what lights you up now.
Those are your signposts. Those are the breadcrumbs leading you forward.

This is a New Moon rich with dreaming, possibility, and quiet magic — one that asks us to plant seeds into the Earth beneath our feet, trusting they’ll take root in their own perfect timing.

Working with the Moon through the years, I’ve always felt her as a sacred union of Sun (spirit) and Moon (soul). In alchemy, this union is called a conjunction — two forces meeting to create something entirely new. It feels no accident that this Moon leads us straight into the Winter Solstice.

As the Wheel turns toward the longest night, the Moon offers herself as an anchor — steady, cyclical, and faithful — reminding us that even in the dark, there is rhythm and guidance. Our Moon Goddess helps us tune into our emotional body, restore balance, and move forward with intention.

If you’ve been longing for a real shift… if you’ve felt something stirring beneath the surface… THIS is the energy that nudges you forward.

As 2025 comes to a close, let this New Moon be your threshold.
 A soft beginning.
 A fresh starting point.

The best is still unfolding.
 I know it. I feel it. 

Blessed be, my lovelies
