Well, here we are, at the end of a new year, and about to launch into the next! Are you with me in wondering how the heck 2018 went by so fast? (Or in being glad it didn’t linger any longer than it did?) 

So, thought I’d do a little forecasting for the year ahead, with the help of our animal friends. 

Watch the video above for the full 2019 New Year spirit animal reading (including to find out which animal came forward for your astrological sign in 2019.)

Otherwise, here’s the Cliff’s Notes version for the year ahead:

2019 New Year Spirit Animal Reading Highlights

  • 2019 is the year many of us are being asked to step into our purpose. 
  • We may see some real shake-ups this year (politically, geophysically, economically etc.) – either they will happen this year, or seeds will be sown for it
  • We’re being asked to step into our power with discernment – pay attention to your body’s signals, especially, and do your best to distinguish between thoughts and feelings that are true to your soul and those that are based on fear or anxiety.
  • We’re being encouraged to really listen for that still small voice of guidance. 
  • Also to look back at past experiences, dreams, readings, etc. and learn from them so we can avoid repeating the same mistakes, and start really fulfilling our soul’s mission on earth
  • Teamwork is a big theme: look for any areas of shared vision with others and find ways to work together for common good
  • Overall, the sense is that this is the year we will, collectively, start really standing in our power and taking positive steps forward to create a new reality, in service to all of humanity.

What was that old Chinese saying about living in exciting times? 😉 Buckle up folks – we’re in for a ride!

One last thing – I keep getting this message over and over: 

The human psyche doesn’t like change, so it tends to react with anxiety. But when we react to change from a place of anxiety, others pick up on that and will forward it and even amplify it to others. And that can actually make change harder. 

So it will be really important in the coming year to do everything we can to ground ourselves and, at the risk of sounding cliche, to “keep calm and carry on.” 

The more of us who are practicing deep levels of awareness, listening to our guidance and moving forward in faith that Spirit’s got our back, the easier will be the transition for everyone on the planet. We DO have influence over how things go down, so never think what you think, say, or do doesn’t matter. 

Have a lovely and blessed New Year. We’ve got this!!
