We are closing the year with a Black Moon on December 30, 2024. The Black moon is in Capricorn, an Earth sign that reminds us to dress up and do our best not just on New Year but as often as possible in 2025. Be ambitious in 2025 on our professional goals. Going back to school and completing the certificate training,
what are some things you promised to be doing professionally by now that you need to work on?
The Black moon, a unique new moon phase, brings us energy freshness. Be excited about life. How can you have a fresh outlook on your life?
Decree: I am excited about the opportunities and exciting new beginnings in 2025 and beyond.
The Earth sign's energy is about having a better relationship with money.
A great ritual is to start a savings envelope and put money aside daily, weekly, or monthly, whatever suits your finances.
Another great ritual is to exercise dominion over money. Get a book, sign up for a class, and educate yourself on your money flaws. Learn about the power of the Black economy. This is a time to work on your financial flaws and strengthen them.
It is not about lighting up a money altar and not working on the root cause of your issue, but also about cleaning your wallet and blessing your bills, coins, and checks.
Another ritual, if you can afford it, is to place real gold coins or bars on your Ancestral Altar, asking for financial wisdom. Or buying real gold as an investment.
2025 is a year of educating oneself about money, befriending it, and making it a trusted friend. Also, if you are a professional Rootworker like me and people are coming to you for money work, 2025 is the year to charge a hefty fee. Check in with your Ancestors first, but doing money work for people this year requires people working on their money stories, getting educated, and doing the work alongside you, which can lead to quite powerful results.
This year will require multi-money workings over the whole year, which will take time, so you have to charge for your worth and work. You can't ask someone to respect money if you don't respect your worth by not charging accordingly, and $33.33 and $44.44 for some money work is not charging accordingly, my dears.
There aren't many Astro alignments this year that support community money work there are more alignment that support doing 1:1 money work so that you will be doing more 1:1 money work, my dear professional Hoodoos and Rootworkers. This requires time, and we must educate the layperson on expectations, pricing, and the work they must do themselves. Money is a sensitive subject for many, and you will see many clients need to shed intergenerational money issues requiring in-person workings. We have to be the upholders of tradition; sometimes, tradition doesn't fit in the modern convenience box.
I don't want to hear anything from the ultra-spiritual that you can't do New Year's work in January and should wait until Spring. One of the reasons I am offering Ancestral altar work for the Full Moon In January astrology alignment is that January is about a time of renewal and fresh starts. Every day you wake up is a new beginning, a chance to start over, and every breath you take is a moment to begin again.
If you want to leave an Ancestral Altar offering in January, you have two options.
1: leave a simple flower and candle offering
2: leave a flower candle and food offering
January transits invite us deep into ourselves and make us believe we are the magick. So, even if you do not want to participate in the service that I'm offering to honor your Ancestors, leave an Ancestor offering somewhere to set the year's tone ahead for yourself.
One of the key themes for the Full Moon in Cancer is family and friends and protection work, but another is going inside yourself and believing in your potential. Cancer is assigned to retreat inside and believe in its profound potential. Believe that you are the magic, and ask your Ancestors for guidance and help so that you can believe in your potential and be the magic you need to live a magical life in 2025.
January holds the energy of looking forward to surprises for 2025; this month's energy is about talking to your Ancestors and journaling about your big dreams.
What are some big dreams that you have?
It is okay to dream big. It's a good time to create a big dream house vision board. What does your dream home look like? Some people's dream home may be an open-concept white and gold kitchen with stellar mountain views. For others, it may be a chef's kitchen to give a private chef a haven in their home. Another may not have a big kitchen but a tiny house on wheels or a big apartment in the city where you are barely using the kitchen at all because you are dining at the finest restaurants in the city almost nightly. This isn't about shunning someone's dream but affirming and supporting each other's dreams.
Every dream is a seed, so plant your seeds with your dreams and see what roots sprout and grow. But whatever your dream home looks like, the Full moon cancer is a great time to make a vision board about your dream home and or what your dream transportation looks like and take the time to visualize yourself in this dream, home or transportation,
How you direct your energy during this for the first month of the year sets the tone and foundation for 2025. So please pay attention to where your energy goes
