Monthly 2022 Horoscope:Bringing in the New Year
This December, take a moment to reflect on the previous year and determine what you want to take with you into 2023 - and what is time to release. Physically declutter, digitally declutter, whatever works for you. Delight in the positive moments that you’ve had or grieve the difficult ones – give yourself permission to express, process, and be with what is most relevant for you at this time. The astrology of this month gives you the opportunity to set thoughtful intentions. Your intentions will be there in spirit even if you are not ready to implement them in a tangible way just yet.

Consider removing to dos rather than adding things in and sense what it would feel like to allow more time for things to unfold, and more spaciousness in your days. A slow and steady approach can support a clear mind right now and a greater sense of fulfillment overall.
