The upcoming festive week marks a transition—from the closing days of the old year to the opening moments of the new one. I’ve previously written about the traditions of Yule, where each day represents a specific month of the coming year, shaping its energy. This year, the New Year’s arrival coincides with the final day of Yule—the Day of Words—energetically setting the tone for the entire year of 2025. This idea is reflected not only in tradition but also in the energies of this transitional time: “The way you welcome the New Year is the way you will live it.”
💎 The energies of this week tune us into physical sensations and our interaction with the “here and now” of the material world.
It’s a time to feel grounded, to value each moment, each touch, and each breath.
With the week emphasizing the physical body and the home—a visible reflection of our inner “self”—this is the perfect time to care for your health, appearance, and the space around you. Dedicate some attention to beautifying and enriching your home. Care for your body. Take moments to nourish yourself, ensuring you feel strong and energized.
This is also an ideal time to reflect on the past year. Contemplate the preceding months, extract valuable lessons, and set intentions for the future. Now is the perfect moment to lay the foundation for your personal year, filled with goals and desires that truly align with your essence and aspirations.
🎀 As the festive energies weave through every moment, we can feel the beauty and wholeness of existence.
During this period, it is especially important to connect with a sense of harmony within yourself and in your interactions with the world around you. Dive into this deep sense of unity and explore how open you are to the world—and how it is open to you.
Each day this week carries the message that everything is in your hands, and you have the power to shape your life as you wish. However, it’s also vital to align yourself with the flow of energies, which, if embraced, will support you and open the necessary paths. Welcome each new morning with gratitude for its gifts and confidence in your abilities, allowing yourself to grow and thrive in harmony with the surrounding world.
🏠 As the New Year approaches, remember the importance of the connections that bind us to loved ones.
Approach the selection of those who will accompany you in key moments of life with mindfulness.
One critical question often arises before the New Year: “Who will I spend New Year’s Eve with?” This isn’t just about planning an evening; it mirrors your relationships with those close to you. If you find yourself not wanting certain people around during this pivotal moment, perhaps it’s time to reassess your understanding of “closeness” with them. Do these connections truly support you and bring happiness and understanding?
Even difficult realizations and re-evaluations of relationships can be beneficial now, helping you enter the next phase of life with greater awareness and clarity about your path. You might reframe the question as: “Who is walking my path with me?”
Surround yourself with those who illuminate your journey, and together step toward new horizons with awareness, joy, and harmony. This is the time to lay the groundwork for a future filled with meaningful moments and vibrant connections!

With the final day of Yuletide, the New Year and a new life cycle come into full force. This day is called the Day of Words, when every spoken wish and intention will be heard by the Universe.
It’s an ideal time not only to speak your desires aloud but also to perform rituals for their fulfillment, amplifying your intentions. If you haven’t yet defined your goals for the upcoming 2025 year, now is the perfect moment to set them.
In our Magical Ritual, we will shape our future by not only opening pathways but also clearing the road of obstacles so the flow of energy can bring the new and desirable into our lives!
