A new season is almost upon us - and it comes full of fire and can-do energy! On December 21st at 7:03 a.m. PST, the Sun makes its annual entrance into the sign of Capricorn. This portal officially takes us into Winter in the Northern Hemisphere, defining the energies that will be present between the end of December and the end of March.
Unlike the beginning of 2025, the transition from 2025 to 2026 seems more positive. The foundations of our old world will continue to shift, but this time, we have the determination and stamina to rise above the challenges of our times. Being one of the four most important points of the year, the Winter Solstice is a moment of initiation during which intention-setting carries a deeper meaning. For this reason, we’ve created the special Winter Solstice Magic Candle (Limited Edition), along with three powerful rituals, to guide you in honoring this unique and special moment in time.
Sun in Capricorn conjunct Mars
Theme: Ambition, action, disciplined energy.
Light the candle on a solid surface (stone or wooden altar).
Hold a piece of Red Jasper Tumble in your dominant hand.
Meditate on the goals you wish to manifest during the season ahead, between now and late March of 2026.
Speak: “I claim my power, I take action with purpose, I rise with steady strength. My efforts manifest aligned with my highest vision.”
Retrograde Jupiter in Cancer trine Saturn & Neptune
Theme: Reassessing faith, emotional security, and long-term dreams.
Light your Winter Solstice candle on a reflective altar (water or silver accents enhance Cancer energy).
Hold a bowl of water or a piece of Rainbow Moonstone Tumble for emotional clarity.
Meditate on beliefs, home, and emotional foundations needing recalibration.
Speak: “As Jupiter turns within, I review my path. I balance dreams and structure, heart and discipline. I trust the guidance of my ancestors.”
Mercury square the Lunar Nodes of Destiny
Theme: Communication, choices, karmic alignment.
Light the candle with a journal and pen nearby.
Reflect on decisions or conversations that feel karmic.
Write a letter stating: “I release confusion and align my words and thoughts with my soul’s path. I speak my truth with courage and clarity.”
Place the paper under the candle, visualizing the tension between past patterns (south node) and future destiny (north node) resolving.
Close: “I align my mind and words with my destiny. I move forward with awareness and grace.”
