Life often presents us with challenges that push us beyond our comfort zones, urging us to evolve into better versions of ourselves. But even after we’ve made the decision to change, we sometimes slip back into old patterns—thoughts, behaviors, beliefs that no longer serve us. These old habits can feel deeply rooted in us, so much so that they begin to feel like part of our identity. When we fall back into them, we may even say, “This is just who I am,” as if we’re stuck in a cycle we can’t break.

But here’s the truth: That’s not who you are anymore. When you chose to step into your new life, you were given the freedom to leave behind the old self—the selfish habits, the limiting beliefs, the destructive behaviors. Those were part of who you were, not who you are now. You have been made new. And now, you have the power to embrace a more authentic, empowered version of yourself.

The old you might try to resurface. Old thoughts and behaviors don't vanish overnight, and that’s okay. But here's the question: What are you doing to prove that your life has changed? Are you actively choosing to release the old ways? Or are you still clinging to what feels familiar, even though it no longer serves you?
When we fall back into old patterns whether it’s negative self-talk, making excuses, or justifying harmful choices we’re staying stuck in a version of ourselves that we’ve outgrown. The new you, the person you’re meant to be, can’t fully emerge if you’re constantly holding on to the past.

You are changing. You are becoming better, more aligned with your true purpose. It’s not just about doing better it’s about being better. It’s about fully stepping into the new nature that’s already within you. We are meant to live as our truest selves, not to compromise or settle for less than what we’re capable of.

Imbolc and the Sacred Fire of Goddess Brigid

As we move into the heart of winter’s cold embrace, a powerful and sacred shift occurs on February 1st and 2nd Imbolc, the ancient Celtic festival that marks the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. This day is dedicated to the goddess Brigid, whose energy brings the first stirrings of new life, healing, and transformation.

Imbolc, meaning “in the belly,” signifies the beginning of rebirth. It is a time when the Earth, still cloaked in winter's cold, stirs from her slumber, and the first signs of spring start to make themselves known. The days begin to lengthen, the darkness loosens its grip, and the promise of new life can be felt just beneath the surface. It is the time when the dreams and visions planted during the Winter Solstice begin to take root and stir to life. While winter still holds its reign over the land, the subtle warmth of spring can be felt in the lengthening daylight and the thawing earth. Imbolc is a time for reflection, for planting seeds both literal and metaphorical and for stepping into the energy of renewal.

At the heart of Imbolc lies the presence of the goddess Brigid, a powerful figure in Celtic mythology. Brigid is known as “the exalted one,” a goddess whose sacred fire symbolizes transformation, purification, and creative energy. She is the goddess of healers, she embodies the powers of the hearth, the forge, and the womb bringing forth life, creativity, and healing in her wake.

Brigid is closely associated with fire both the physical flames that burn brightly and the metaphorical fire that fuels transformation within us. Her fire represents the transformative power that burns away the old, creating space for the new. Just as a blacksmith uses the forge to shape metal, Brigid’s fire forges transformation in our lives, whether it be physical healing, emotional release, or spiritual renewal.

During Imbolc, fire becomes a central symbol of both physical and spiritual healing. Fires lit in her honor serve to purify the body, mind, and spirit, allowing us to release what no longer serves us and to make space for new beginnings. Brigid's sacred flame is the guiding light that leads us through the darkness of winter and into the warmth and possibility of spring. Brigid also represents the transformative power of creativity. As the goddess of poets and artisans, she inspires us to awaken our creative potential and use our gifts to heal and manifest. Imbolc, under Brigid’s influence, is an excellent time to ignite our creative fires, whether through writing, art, or other forms of self-expression. It is a time to begin new projects, set intentions, and allow the creative energy of the season to flow through us.

Imbolc is a sacred time for personal rebirth and renewal. It’s a time to honor the cycles of life, death, and rebirth within ourselves. As the Earth begins to stir beneath the ice, we too are called to stir from our own slumbers—both physical and spiritual. We can reflect on what needs to be healed, what parts of ourselves need to be reborn, and what new creations we are ready to bring into the world. Brigid’s energy calls us to tend to our inner fire, to stoke the flames of self-love, creativity, and healing. Whether it’s a physical ailment that needs attention, an emotional wound that calls for release, or a creative project that needs to be birthed, Imbolc and Brigid offer us the sacred space to honor those processes and begin anew.

Embracing the New Life of Imbolc
Imbolc is the season of awakening and renewal, a time to honor the sacred fires of transformation within us all. As we look ahead to the coming spring, we are reminded that even in the coldest, darkest months, new life is always stirring beneath the surface.

Full Moon in Leo: A Celebration of Radical Self-Acceptance

Ruled by the Sun itself, Leo is naturally solar. Just as the Sun shines with unapologetic brilliance, this fiery full Moon invites us to do the same. Leo encourages us to step into the fullness of who we are, reminding us that dimming our light serves no one. The Full Moon in Leo brings the medicine of radical self-acceptance and the courage to be seen as we truly are without shame, without hesitation, and without fear.

This potent Moon illuminates the difference between the aspirations that come from your true self and those born from external pressures. Have you set goals based on what you think you should do? Perhaps you've been striving to meet expectations imposed by others or comparing yourself to those around you. The Leo Full Moon has a way of revealing these misalignments not to shame you, but to liberate you. When we let go of intentions that aren’t authentically ours, we make room for those that are truly aligned with our soul’s path.

At its core, Leo reconnects us to a part of ourselves that once knew how to play without purpose, create without judgment, and love without limits. Before the world told you how to be, who were you? What did you love? What made you feel alive?

This Full Moon invites you to remember that pure, untainted innocence. Beneath the layers of conditioning, beneath the fears of being judged, there exists a creative spark a playful energy that is waiting to be reawakened. Leo’s energy brings these dormant patterns into conscious awareness, offering a chance to observe where you may still be seeking validation in old, familiar ways. It highlights how you may be performing outdated scripts that no longer serve your growth.

Leo's medicine is a reminder that you are inherently worthy of love, attention, and celebration simply for existing. You don’t need to earn it. You don’t need to perform. You are deserving of recognition just for being you. This Full Moon calls you to step into your radiant authenticity and embrace the parts of yourself that have long been hidden in the shadows. As the full Moon rises in Leo, take a moment to reflect on where you’ve been holding back your light. Where have you conformed, and where are you ready to break free? Let this be a time to reclaim your personal power, to stand proud in your unique brilliance, and to celebrate who you are just as you are.
