the last drop is the first seed.

Today isn’t just a new lunar cycle. It’s a REbirth layered on top of a REbirth — a New Moon wrapped inside a Solar Eclipse, opening the doorway to a new spiral of growth for the next 12 years. The Year of the Horse is the first of 12.

Eclipses don’t whisper. They accelerate. They close doors cleanly. They reveal what’s been living in the shadows and ask you to choose from truth instead of fear.

This is not surface work. This is dig-in work.

Not scratching at the soil — but going six feet under. Letting what has ended fully decompose. Because only what truly dies can be REborn and grow deep, unshakable roots.

You may not see flowers yet. That doesn’t mean nothing is happening. You are planting forests. Find joy in building what wind cannot uproot.

The Year of the Horse carries movement, fire, and independence. But real momentum comes from grounding. A wild horse runs in every direction. A trained horse knows exactly where it’s going.

This moon asks you to dial into the new — like updating your internal software. You cannot run your future self on outdated programming. Clear the cache. Release the old responses. Step out of fight, flight, and freeze.

You are not in danger. You are in transition.

It’s that final layer of doubt that feels uncomfortable — the thin space between comfortable complacency or delulu greatness and the version of you that knows you’re meant for more.

Working harder isn’t the answer. Working aligned is.

It was never about chasing stability. Alignment creates stability. The order in which you move matters. When you’re aligned, decisions simplify. Energy organizes. Stability becomes a byproduct — not the goal.

Everything is connected. Your healing. Your habits. Your ambition. Your joy.

And you must be fiercely committed to becoming YOU.

Because what you’re not changing, you’re choosing.

The last drop is the first seed.

Plant it deep.

Happy Lunar New Year on this Aquarius New Moon Solar Eclipse 🤍

From my heart to yours,

JOURNAL PROMPTS:

1. What in my life is ready to fully die so something deeper can take root? Where am I scratching the surface instead of going six feet under?

2. Where am I choosing comfort over alignment?

If I released the last layer of doubt, what version of me would move forward differently?

3. What would it look like to commit fiercely to becoming me this year?

Not the palatable version. Not the strategic version. The true one.

CRYSTAL PARINGS:

Smoky Quartz // Perfect for “six feet under” work — helping you let things fully decompose instead of spiritually decorating them.

Labradorite // Helps you trust the in-between and lean into becoming instead of clinging to certainty.

Carnelian // Great for moving from doubt into action without overworking.
