Summary

Celebrate the true New Year with Danielle as she delves into why January 1st doesn't resonate with your body or your soul. No matter what hemisphere you’re in, you’re likely not feeling new year, new you vibes on January 1. Instead of hacking it or crushing it, how about being the conscious creator while being fully supported by the energies of the planets and Mother Nature?

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

The historical context of calendars, including the Gregorian calendar and its divergence from natural cycles.
Significance of the Lunar New Year and its alignment with planetary cycles.
The Vision Builder practice, a holistic life planning, that is a non-neurotic approach to goal setting and manifesting.

Danielle also answers three questions from listeners and Heart Centered members—beautiful and juicy questions about her end of the year ritual and practices, mantras and nourishing thoughts, and how resistance is a sign of change.

She ends the episode with the Metta Bhavana prayer since it’s an important component of the Vision Builder practice. It guides us to a place of Compassion and Loving Kindness so we can create a vibrant year.

0:00.0	My loves, happy actual true New Year.
0:08.0	Today, if you are listening today, are you listening today?
0:10.8	Are you listening today? It's always today.
0:11.9	But the day this is dropping is Wednesday, January 29th.
0:17.0	It is the Lunar New Year.
0:18.6	The Lunar New Year changes every year because it's aligned with the planets. It's seasonal. This is what we're going to do today. I'm going to break this down. You're going to understand why January 1st, not the New Year, like your body knows it. Your soul knows it. No matter what hemisphere you're in, I know you're not
0:38.4	likely feeling New Year, New You vibe on the 1st of January. Let me demystify that for you
0:46.4	and bring us back to planetary cycles and nature and throw in some information about a Pope
0:52.9	who just thought he knew better.
0:55.0	And then we're going to roll into some Q&A.
0:56.8	And of course, because you're you, the questions are deep and juicy.
1:02.2	All right, so let me give you the backstory.
1:04.6	On the calendar of consumerism and control that we are all mostly living by and then the seasons and how I think
1:16.2	the cosmos would really prefer for us to roll. So scientifically, scientifically, a year is a
1:23.2	complete cycle of seasons. We move from one spring equinox. We go through all the seasons,
1:30.3	and we land on the next spring equinox. The calendar that most Western nations use is a solar
1:40.7	calendar, not a moon or a lunar calendar. It's a Gregorian calendar. Why? It's thanks to Pope
1:49.8	Gregory, who just decided to refine the calendar to, quote, correct the seasons. How do you correct
1:58.6	Mother Nature? How very possibly patriarchal could this be? There are various
2:05.1	approaches, other approaches, like the Maori calendar. They track the stars and the natural signs,
2:11.4	and they just decide, not so randomly, but naturally like, hey, let's just call it a new year now. Today's the new year
2:20.1	because this is what the seasons are doing. I think it's so intuitive and kind of punk rock.
