January 2026 New Moon spirit guidance
January 19th, 2026
This first new moon of 2026 spoke loud even in the days before it. Spirit reminded of how time carries an “Ish”, that even the energy we perceive as a day, clearly is longer than a day, just think of the multiple time zones, and how depending on where you live in the world, that day commences and ends at different times, so the energy of that day period is clearly longer than 24 hours in actuality, and its influence gently moves in some time beforehand, and the ripples of that energy are lapped up even in our “days” after. So, understandably so, with all the buildup to this time of co-creation and collaboration with your Heart and spirit, there was an emphatically clear request to take your time, to pace yourself, and honour the wisdom of the turtle’s pace. Slow and steady, please.
Yes, this is a heavy period in our history, a weighted period of erratic and emphatic events, riding concurrently, through times, interspersing and diverging in ways that make even the most astute observers of patterns and predictive measures go cross-eyed. In preparing for this moon cycle, the week prior shared a distinct query from my Spirit counsel. Do you wish to continue to address and assess the chaos, or are you ready to participate in creation with us? But, in order to do so, there was an ask to release the predictive measures of yesteryear, any preconceived notions that held grooves and lines in the mind. It was an active practice of allowing these suggestions and suppositions to slowly fall away, clearing up space and making room for… well, nothing. Viable, open, space. Making room for what we are dreaming up, remembering, reminiscing over, and seeing what was integral, in utmost integrity, and was integrated.
Many of us may wish to co-create, it is such a buzz word. We have heard of prompts to Manifest, the time is now, that we simply need to speak it and so mote it be. But, we are also highly cautioned at this time, to be aware that we do not necessarily fully comprehend the speed of manifestation, since we have been inconsistent in our effective practices. There is so much energy still emitted into the aethers and interwoven into the roots of the earth that is quite childlike, sharing of our requests like when we make a wish on our birthday, eyes squeezed shut, heart ripe with possibility and hope, before we blow our candles out. Make a wish! Wish upon a star, share your requests, and so mote it be. It is important to nurture our childlike wonder, but there is an emphasis now on tending to those aspects of self, whilst carrying the dual knowing that we can hope and wonder, while also carrying the knowledge earned and wisdom gained, with responsibility and the utmost accountability.
Spirit prompts that, yes, it is a ripe and ample time, this moon cycle, to manifest – but to be aware that co-creating requires an equilibrium, of truth in heart, clarity and space in mind, as well as emphasis and rhythmic allowance in body. This is beyond a balancing of the scales, for you see, there are more than two spaces to tend to, all three aforementioned are paramount and integral, which of course, does not make sense in our chronological, cause and effect, linear way of understanding time.
I digress for a sec, to share how I learned recently that in physics, almost every physical law could be stated as a variational principle, but, interestingly enough, we still allow our mind absolutes, and it carries much diligent effort to practice variance in perspectives, to allow us to alter patterns ingrained and grooved in. So, when Spirit prompted that this new moon brought in the opportunity for Rebirth, for new possible awarenesses and perceptions to bloom, and of course then, possible new foundations and creations to ground and settle in, I understood the tenacious efforts that would need to be honed, grounded into our daily reality, a consistent and regular effort to explore what may be beyond how our minds cling to the easeful order of linear chronology. And since there is so much tenacious effort required to support our mental states and space, a continual process of addressing what is not assisting that most impactful power generator, that we can then adjust our focus to the absolute necessary, our body’s equilibrium, and tending to the flame of our hearts.
So, be diligent in your mental efforts, whilst tending to the immense landscape and sensations of your intuitive body, ensuring a fertile landscape to support your creativities, whilst keeping your heart flame alive. How can this be seen in practical, grounded base steps? Eat foods that nourish and care for your unique make-up, drink ample water to support a healthy flow and current of energy movements within you, and an immense emphasis on breath. Breathe. Feel the immense gratitude of being alive. The privilege of having shelter, nourishment, and warmth, amidst the turbulent water of our currents in history, in a central world stage that does not support those as a base for all of humanity. No wonder there is so much nostalgia and reminiscing of previous cycles passed and transgressed. Yes, you may review, but no need to stew into what used to be. We are moving now with greater integrity and stronger integral awareness. Review, but the emphasis is now to revise. Revise and refine. Clarify visions and dreams and seeds kept in, through the transmogrifications of cycles before.
Spirit shared this New Moon to remind you that many, many, many of us carry immensely beautiful and profound gifts. That the energy of this moon cycle may bring lots more visions and awarenesses to the forefront, but to allow them time to refine. The energy of this could be seen as an “upgrade”, but let’s enjoy the opportunity as an update. But with any computer update, bugs and fixes may still come, revisions and edits and further updates may be released. Not to speed through this process, but to allow the insights to flow like water, and then to allow your body and heart to be hydrated from them, and to reassemble and embrace what further feels true and distinct. Embrace the succinct actions, intentions, and words that flow, but be diligent in the mind-body-heart equilibrium, and allow that flow to come from your interwoven and supported center, and give it time to share it’s tapestry, its integral design, more consistently, through your entirety of perceptual experiencing.
What is the importance of us honing our crafts and remembering our gifts in this gentle way, now? Spirit shared its purpose being one of balance and temperance, tipping the scales of the global energetic equilibriums, ensuring more grace and flow than just flux. Last messages to support you in these days and weeks and times ahead? There are many moons that make up our understanding of a year. Pace yourself, slow and steady turtle energy. Be aware of your words spoken, what are you creating in real time? Be diligent with your mental shit, your mental practices are so important to assist and support perspective shifts. This ain’t no new age mindset bullshit, baby! This is responsible, integral, consistent and humble actions, slow and steady, with integrity.
Be ready to tell your mind to Stop, Halt, End things cycling on repeat that are inconsistent, unsteady, and incapable in not only supporting you, but allowing your internal care to emit, emulate, and ripple on and beyond you, to support many, many more. How do your practices and creations at this time, truly, without guilt or shame, assist more than one? More than one body, more than one family, more than one household, more than one community? In a year that denotes the energies of “1”, in a month that shares a reflection of that “1”, it is time to see the multiplicity in one, and truly take cautious, gentle steps beyond the tenets of individualization, and to see what is way beyond 1, for those that enjoy numbers, the energy of this year would be depicted as 111111111111111111111111111111111111111 (to infinity and beyond!). There’s a quote from Buzz Lightyear, to also trust that this can be done with some humour, joy, and delight, amidst the respect, honour, and care requested.
Big breaths, sweet loves. Give gratitude to Earth, Air, Water, and Flame. Honour the Aether and how it supports all that may still be unseen. You are welcome to gather, with your beloved ancestors, guides, and soul guardians for further supportive counsel and assistance.
For grounded and impactful support during these times, I share spiritual guidance and mentorship, privately, 1-on–1, with all whom you bring with you, in order to honour your unique mix and make-up of ancestry, soul, and body.
So beautifully Josi!

Holding onto this reminder that we don’t have to continue to circle and address the chaos, it keeps us stuck and in limbo. An invitation from spirit to move forward and create is so beautiful to me, and I think about my own need to allow for clearing old “gunk” to make room for a quiet, calm, black “wormhole” of nothing. I often feel like I must rush to fill this hole with what I think will be good for me/what I need for my healing journey but I can actually take my time decluttering and knowing that I can make room for space brings a lot of relief. Slow and steady turtle energy indeed.
Grateful this brought some relief! This process has been uplifting, supportive, while I still have had to pay attention to when I started addressing and assessing again… it has been very helpful in supporting gently clearing past/what has passed, while being gentle to maintain and tend to the space created. Grateful for the turtle support! Gentle and slow… 🙂
