Today is the start of Chinese New Years (Year of the Ox, my year by the way), The New Moon, AND a solar eclipse! Could you stuff more wammy into a day or what?
According to Cerridwen Iris Shea:
There’s energy for fresh starts with the New Moon and New Year energies. The ox represents strength and endurance. What you begin now has the capacity to last a long time. The solar eclipse lends positive, active energy to the change.
Today is a VERY good day for concentrating on goals you wish to achieve in this new year. It is also a good day to list some long term goals, as the ox energy of endurance will help you to persevere in the long run.
My plan is to write a list of goals. Some for the next few weeks (get my books ready for my accountant, blecch) some for the year, and some for long term. Then under each goal I’ll write active steps I can take towards the goal (planning an hour a day to work on my books until they are done).
I plan on then creating ritual space, and placing my goals on my altar. I will probably anoint the sheet with some of my oils to help with the goals (healing and fast money and business success will the the three I’ll use). I’ll visualize me in the future once the goals are completed. (positive visualization is always a good thing when working on goals). Then finally I’ll ask the Goddess and God, and the four elements to lend their energies in achieving my goals.
After doing my ritual, I’ll place the goals in my book of shadows, and review them every month. Check off the goals I’ve achieved, and remind myself of what I need to work on to make the goals I haven’t achieved to happen.
I hope this helps you in planning your New Moon, Year of the Ox, Solar Eclipse celebration!
