Energy This Week

The final days of 2025 are quietly ticking by. This week, we welcome the energy of 2026. The transition from old to new feels lighter, clearer, and more fluid this year. The energy seems to move more easily, with a gentler, lighter step.

December can often feel like a heavy blanket, with a thick and sluggish quality, but this time it feels different. As if we have truly stepped into a new energetic era and have already been immersed in this energy for several weeks.

Capricorn energy currently reigns. This energy can push or pull you through something, which can be experienced in two ways.

1. As challenging and anxiety-provoking, because escaping, avoiding, or returning to the old no longer works.
2. Or as liberating and sparkling, because there is finally movement and inspiration.

Do you have the courage to listen to your heart and soul? To break free. And to let go deeply. So you can soften into surrender and trust. We are being guided back to our essence: purity, simplicity, true soul connections, and the sacred bond with the Earth and the cosmos. Everything is one, interconnected within one vast field of consciousness.

Many people are also experiencing a sense of restlessness, impatience, and pulsating energy in the body that can no longer be ignored. There may be pressure in the chest and airways as the heart chakra grows stronger, expands, and picks up more signals. The heart feels and knows what the mind cannot yet understand or contain. As we wrote before: 2025 was the great transition and bridge year into a new era, and your body is preparing for it.

The lunar phases this week: waxing Moon (until January 2), full Moon (January 3), and waning Moon (January 4).

January 1: Mercury in Capricorn

On December 24, Venus entered Capricorn. The Sun and Mars were already present in this powerful earth sign. On January 1, the Capricorn stellium becomes even stronger as Mercury also moves into Capricorn. The universe is clearly emphasizing a theme.

With Mercury in Capricorn, the tone of our thoughts, conversations, and decisions changes. Mercury governs communication, planning, and mental processes. In Capricorn, he wants to look ahead — more serious, realistic, and responsible. This is not the energy of loose ideas or impulsive words, but of structure, focus, and long-term thinking. What you say, you mean. What you plan, you intend to follow through and complete.

We are invited to take an honest look at our goals for the new year. Which plans are realistic? Where are you taking responsibility? And where is it time to stop postponing? Conversations may feel more serious, but also more constructive and grounded. This is an excellent period to make agreements, take decisions, and formulate your intentions clearly. Mercury supports this by organising your thoughts and giving weight to your words. What you express now can form the foundation for the months ahead.

Be mindful not to let your communication or thinking become too heavy or overly serious, pulling you too far into analytical overthinking. Your mind needs your heart to make grounded and inspired decisions. Mercury is also the free thinker, who enjoys flowing with the energy — carried by insight and ease.

January 3: Full Moon in Cancer

After all the Capricorn energy — masculine energy — the full Moon in Cancer on January 3 brings a wave of soft, feminine energy. Capricorn and Cancer are opposites in the zodiac, standing directly opposite each other. Cancer represents emotional safety, nurturing, and home (feminine and water), while Capricorn represents ambition, structure, and responsibility (masculine and earth).

This opposition can create tension between feeling and thinking, between being and doing. This cosmic interplay reminds us that true strength is not only found in perseverance, but also in allowing, nurturing, and slowing down. You may feel a struggle between head and heart. Or you may experience how this full Moon allows these opposites — and the masculine and feminine energies within each of us — to work together. They can complement one another perfectly. True balance arises when masculine and feminine energies within ourselves are in harmony.

Sensitive Cancer teaches grounded Capricorn to express emotions, while responsible Capricorn offers Cancer stability and a sense of safety. In this way, a strong and harmonious inner relationship emerges, combining depth with practical earthly strength.

A full Moon in Cancer always touches deep layers of the heart. This is the sign of home, memories, family bonds, and emotional safety. Under this moonlight, old feelings may surface. Longings for comfort, the need to retreat, or the realization of where you have neglected yourself for too long. See this not as weakness, but as an invitation to reconnect with your inner foundation. What do you need to feel safe, supported, and seen?

This full moon brings softness and helps you shift from control into trust. Space opens to acknowledge that some structures and patterns have completed their cycle. Not everything needs fixing or continuing; some things are meant to gently soften or be released.

It is remarkable that 2026 both begins and ends with a full Moon in Cancer — even a supermoon in December 2026. This sets a clear tone from the start. We are collectively invited to turn inward, towards feeling, intuition, and softness, so we can restore balance and reconnect with nature.

On a spiritual level, this full Moon is beautiful for moments of self-care, forgiveness, and healing old family themes. Think of small rituals with water, journaling, silence, or simply being present in the moonlight.

This Moon asks nothing of you and speaks through feeling, images, and memories. She reminds you that vulnerability is not weakness, but strength. And that you do not need to harden yourself to stand strong. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is simply to come home to yourself again.

Beautiful reflection questions for the final days of 2025 and the first full Moon of 2026: “Where can I be gentler with myself? What does home mean to me at this moment? And where — and with whom — do I truly feel at home?”

We wish you a beautiful turn of the year and the most loving and heartfelt wishes for the year ahead.

Monday, December 29, 2025 – January 4, 2026 

Energy this week

The last days of 2025 are ticking away. This week, we welcome the energy of 2026. The transition from old to new feels lighter, brighter, and more fluid this year. The energy seems to move much more easily, with a lighter step. 

December can sometimes feel like a heavy blanket and have a sluggish energy, but this time it feels different. It's as if we have truly entered a new energetic era and have been in this energy for a few weeks now. 

Capricorn energy reigns supreme at the moment. This energy can push or pull you through something. You can feel this in two ways. 1. As challenging and frightening, because running away, ignoring it, and going back to the old ways no longer works. 2. Or as liberating and sparkling, because there is finally movement and inspiration.

Do you have the courage to listen to your heart and soul? To break free? And to let go deeply? So that you can sink into surrender and trust. We are increasingly being brought back to our foundation, purity, simplicity, true soul connections, and the sacred connection with the earth and cosmos. Everything is one, connected in one large field of consciousness.

Many also feel a kind of restlessness, impatience, and pulsating energy in the body that can no longer be ignored. And pressure on the chest and airways, because the heart chakra is becoming more powerful, expanding, and picking up more signals. The heart feels/knows what the head is still far from understanding or even able to comprehend... As we wrote last time: 2025 was the big transition and bridge year to a new era, and your body is preparing for this. 

The moon phases this week: waxing moon (until January 2), full moon (January 3), and waning moon (January 4)

January 1: Mercury in Capricorn

On December 24, Venus entered Capricorn. The Sun and Mars were already in this powerful earth sign. On January 1, the Capricorn stellium will become even stronger when Mercury also shifts into Capricorn. The universe is clearly setting a theme. 

With Mercury in Capricorn, the tone of our thoughts, conversations, and decisions changes. Mercury is about communication, planning, and mental processes. In Capricorn, it wants to look ahead. More seriously, more realistically, and with more responsibility. This is not the energy of random ideas or impulsive words, but of structure, focus, and long-term thinking. What you say, you mean. What you plan, you actually want to achieve and complete. 

We are invited to take an honest look at our goals for the new year. Which plans are achievable? Where do you take responsibility? And where can you stop procrastinating? Conversations may feel more serious, but also more constructive and grounded. This is an excellent time to make agreements, take decisions, and formulate your intentions in concrete terms. Mercury helps you do this by organizing your thoughts and giving weight to your words. What you say now can form the basis for the months to come.

Be careful not to let your communication and thoughts become too heavy and serious, and don't get too caught up in your analytical mind. Your head needs your heart to make well-founded and inspired decisions. Mercury is also the free thinker, who loves to move with the energy. Thoughtful and comfortable in the flow. 

January 3: Full moon in Cancer

After all the Capricorn energy—masculine energy—the full moon in Cancer on January 3 brings a wave of gentle, feminine energy. Capricorn and Cancer are opposites in the zodiac, standing directly opposite each other (opposition). Cancer represents emotional security, caring, and home (feminine and water), while Capricorn represents ambition, structure, and responsibility (masculine and earth). 

Capricorn and Cancer in opposition can create tension between feeling and thinking, and between being and doing. This cosmic interplay reminds us that true strength lies not only in perseverance, but also in allowing, caring, and slowing down. You may feel a struggle between your head and your heart. Or you may experience that this full moon allows these opposites (and both the masculine and feminine energies that reside in each of us) to work together. They can complement each other perfectly. We are only truly balanced when the masculine and feminine energies within ourselves are in balance.

The sensitive Cancer teaches the down-to-earth Capricorn to express their emotions, while the responsible Capricorn offers Cancer stability and a sense of security. This creates a solid and harmonious relationship with both depth and practical earthly strength.

A full moon in Cancer always touches the deepest layers of the heart. This is the sign of home, memories, family ties, and emotional security. Under this moonlight, old feelings can surface. Longings for security, the need to retreat, or the realization that you have ignored yourself for too long. Don't see this as weakness, but as an invitation to reconnect with your inner foundation. What do you need to feel safe, supported, and seen?

This full moon brings gentleness and helps you shift from control to trust. It creates space to acknowledge that some structures and patterns have had their time. Not everything needs to be repaired or continued; some things can simply be softened or let go. 

What is remarkable is that 2026 begins and ends with a full moon in Cancer, and even a supermoon in December 2026. This immediately sets a clear tone. We are collectively invited to look inward, to our feelings, intuition, and gentleness. This will enable us to restore our balance and connection with nature. 

On a spiritual level, this full moon is wonderful for moments of self-care, forgiveness, and healing old family issues. Think of small rituals with water, writing in a journal, silence, or simply being conscious in the moonlight.

This moon asks nothing of you and speaks through feelings, images, and memories. It lets you feel that vulnerability is not weakness, but strength. And that you don't have to become tougher to stay standing. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is to come home to yourself again.

Great reflection questions for the last days of 2025 and the first full moon of 2026:"Where can I be kinder to myself? What does home mean to me right now? And where and with whom do I truly feel at home?"

Happy New Year and best wishes for the new year!
