Welcome to December! Here we go!! It’s the last month of 2024!! In just a few short weeks we are going to begin 2025. Let’s make this month amazing!
The picture above is one that I took in Maine last year. Each year in the month of December I go up to the ocean in Maine for at least one night. It has become an annual tradition for me and I truly look forward to it every year. There’s something about all the lights on the coast that just brings me so much inner peace and joy. Maine has always felt like home to me. If I had my choice I would move up to one of the coastal towns in Maine in a heartbeat. I’ve spent so many happy days up there.
This has been a whirlwind year! Energy of the heart has been traveling with us and I’ve found that a lot of challenges that we’ve been navigating have taught us about where we need to make changes in our lives to support our health and well-being and to bring more love around us. Many of us have been learning about ourselves and figuring out how to ensure that we are being true to ourselves in our lives and learning to celebrate those things that make us different and make us who we are. As we go into this month… try to close the door on all the challenges that 2024 has brought. We’ve learned a lot and you can take those lessons with you… but now is the time to really work with that energy of the heart and focus on the magick of the season that this time of year can bring.
I’ve got the mandarin peels and cinnamon going on the stove. We are going to choose a tree one day this week and I’m so excited. I adore the lights and the scents that this time of year brings and I encourage all of you to look for them in your life as well as other things that warm your heart and make you smile. Relationship energy as well of the energy of the heart is going to stay with you this month. Enjoy it. Spend time in the relationships that bring you joy. Make an effort to share more love in your life and to be sure that you are bringing yourself the self-love that you need. My wish this season is just for everyone to be surrounded by love and to have their mental and physical health as well as enough money to cover what they need and maybe a bit extra for the holidays to brings some extra happiness. May you all find the inner peace that the Winter Solstice seems to always bring.

I pulled the three of cups for December. This is what I like to see, energy of celebration. Perhaps some good news and things to celebrate on the way for all of us. I’m ready! 🙂 I think all of us could use with some added success and reasons to celebrate this month. Keep an eye on that heart energy and all the things that you’ve learned this year. I think many of you are going to find that after a year of working really hard that this is going to be a great month. Look for those magickal moments. It’s going to go by fast!
Have an amazing month!
Much Love and Many Blessings,
