We welcome January with open arms, a fresh start to a new year, and hopes for peace, health, and prosperity. We start this year off with a new moon in Capricorn on the 13th and then a full moon in Leo on the 28th. Taking the moons’ energy and the crystal guidance, you are bound to have a successful moon ritual ceremony.
The crystal guidance paired with your moon ritual will allow you the space to create and manifest your deepest intentions. We think of the new moon as an opportunity to start fresh, set new goals, new intentions, and new behaviors. In comparison, the full moon guides us to release what no longer serves us. Crystal guide plus these January moons will be powerful to set forth the new year’s intention ahead.
January New Moon + Crystal Guidance
In the northern hemisphere, we find ourselves in a period of hibernation. It is cold, winter has made her presents, and we turn inward as the days are shorter and the nights are longer. We are brought into the New Moon of January in Capricorn on the 13th.
Capricorn’s energy helps us get clear on our intention powered by our self-confidence to manifest that intention and what a beautiful time to be in as we step into the New Moon with the energy of this New Moon in Capricorn. This is time to feel empowered and truly believe in yourself.
The New Moon allows for the manifestation of our deepest desires and intentions in every area of life for the coming month. Take this time to pay attention to your time, what’s worth your time, and what’s distracting you from focus. We live in a Universe with unlimited potential, and the time is now to speak your inner truth. With the support of the Capricorn energy, we will align with our beliefs and our inner truth.
As we embrace the new moon, remind yourself to trust in natural cycles. Everything that has happened in our past did so to learn, grow, and continue and what is placed in front of us. These life lessons helped pave the path we are on today.

January Full Moon + Crystal Guidance
January 28, 2021, will bring us the Full Moon of Leo. The full moon is considered to be the most powerful of all the phases. It provides the energy that supports transformation and rebirth. The sign of Leo brings us to a space of ideas and expression. Leo’s love to be loved, and while they may be insecure at times, it is only because they seek love and administration from others.
This full moon, we are asked to release anything that doesn’t come from the foundation of love; thoughts, feelings, emotions must all be rooted in love. If we find the opposite of love, we must release it during our full moon ritual.
Once you have embraced love, follow your love with gratitude. The Leo energy reminds us whatever happens in life, the good and the challenging; life is worth living. It’s time to truly enjoy life, discover and connect with things that bring true joy to our lives.
