January 1st is a full moon. It's also a Supermoon, which means the moon is the closest to the earth, making it appear bigger and energetically it has a stronger impact on us. In the Mayan calendar, it's a number 11 year. 11 is a master number which reveals high spiritual wisdom. This number is visionary and charismatic while indicating leadership and originality. 11 reduces to the number 2 which indicates balance and partnership, cooperation and support. In essence, your own personal balance may be at the forefront of your 2018 mission, along with discovering new and original ways to do things that will empower you in many different aspects of your life. Thinking outside of the box may become the norm, and doing things your way may spirit and infuse new inspiration into your life.
More than ever, allowing the old that no longer serves to drift away and approaching life with new possibilities is the name of the game this year.
The full moon is a great time to let go...Excellent for completing things from 2017 which will support you to begin this new year fresh with renewed openness for what you would like to create in 2018.
