Hi folks! I hope you are still stewing in the nurturing juices of this new year’s beginning. We continue to be in a wrap-up cycle with the end of last year’s “9” year.

Many are feeling some of these old energies, ways of thinking, emotional loops or patterns arising in the first half of this month of February. This is normal and to be expected during the start of this year. Be patient with this reset. Most of all, do any necessary healing and letting go so you can finalize your process. Some are calling this the final purge of an era!

If you’ve been feeling very tired and apathetic, this is part of the ending of the old. Don’t try to fight it or push yourself right now. Focusing on ways to assist your integration is needed. And this is especially helpful with all the X-class solar flares and geomagnetic activity going on, supporting us in our transformation.

Some examples of integration exercises can include a daily meditation or spiritual practice, walking or spending time in nature, reading a good book, any creative activities or even having a warm cup of tea.

Most people will feel a surge of energy and motivation coming back mid-month around 2/17 with the Chinese New Year when we officially move into the year of the Fire Horse!  We also had a Full Moon in Leo on 2/1, that can help ignite inspiration, passion, clarity and focus. This energy could affect a variety of life areas for different people.

And for many in this time—there is a palpable desire to express yourself—your deepest authenticity, service, love, creativity, generosity or calling in the world. Your unique expressions can be shared with yourself, your loved ones and/or the greater collective. When you feel the push to do so (likely mid-month), that means it’s time to take appropriate action.

And with the Valentine’s holiday theme this month, just a reminder here that it’s all about love. I think we can all agree that our love, service, soul’s purpose work or calling is definitely needed in the world at this time!

But it all starts with you. And the incoming cosmic energies, Divine light codes and astrological alignments are an additional support or prompt to begin by giving back to ourselves before we offer anything to others.

Because this is a BIG year and many of us have a labor of LOVE to bring forward, start with filling your own cup first. So this would be a good time to reflect on what loving you more would look like.

It can help to begin by writing a love letter to yourself.  What do you love, appreciate or admire about you? Feel into your greatest soul-level strengths and mastery. This not only boosts your self-worth it also deepens your self-knowingness for the journey forward in giving back to the collective.

How can you care for and look after yourself more? In the process of loving yourself more you open up to be able to receive more from others. This increases your abundance quotient and also gives you the stamina to prepare for putting your soul-level passions out in the world!

Now when we think about the world, we could say there’s a lot happening out there. So where do we feel called? And why?

Many different realities are playing out in the many groups or communities that make up our greater collective reality. This is why people are having such a variety of experiences.

It’s also why in some places in the world, people are dealing with war or violence while in other areas people feel more acceptance, love and peace in their communities. Some are experiencing natural disasters or other types of severe weather like the recent snowstorms in the southern states, while others are experiencing a beautiful and easy winter!

We all hold our own unique signature frequency, light codes and have a soul contract to help a particular group of beings on this planet. So we are placed exactly where we need to be in order to fulfill our role and to serve those particular beings in this world. (See my past post from December, “Gemini Full Moon & The Changing of Roles,” for more information on this).

This is why many of us live in a particular location or are called to move or travel to be in service. Specifically, it can be why many light and loveworkers reside in or visit areas that have been affected by natural disasters that have happened recently or in the past.

This would include for example, the southern states, NC, SC and Georgia when they were affected by hurricanes in 2024, the earthquakes and fires over the years in California, Maui’s fire in 2023 and the recent volcanic eruptions on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Lightworkers living in these areas were and are literally anchoring in light to hold space for the shift in consciousness, to prevent or diminish any ongoing natural disasters and/or to ignite healing related to any earth-related changes that have happened in these areas.

In addition to living where we can be in service, a particular person might also choose to live in an area of the world because they are a match to the consciousness of the majority of people who live in that location.

For example, those who are more aligned to the “new earth” frequency will be drawn to places where there are like-minded souls who value peace, unity, harmony and who are pursuing a higher consciousness.

The same is also true for those who are more resonant with “old earth.” The old earth is one rooted in fear, separation, suffering and materialism. They might not be conscious of it, but people will choose to live where they can have experiences that will be uncomfortable but will also bring awareness and growth for them in their own right timing.

Often people will be born or grow up in an area of old earth if they incarnate with heavy karmic patterns. The location where they live, including all they might experience there and within their family systems, especially if there is war, emotional or physical violence or poverty, can help them release their baggage and move higher in frequency if or when they wake up and begin to expand their consciousness.

The old earth and new earth realities have also been referred to in metaphysical discussions when addressing, “the splitting of the two worlds.” This is what is playing out on our planet right now. It is a distinct frequency-based separation that represents a difference in perception, not a physical separation.

Our perceptions and level of consciousness reflects back to us in the quality of our personal “external” reality that we experience in our day-to-day life, which also includes our experiences in our immediate community and where we live on the planet.

To elaborate on how the splitting of the two worlds may show up for many…

The more we move internally into our own new earth territory through our healing and transformation, the more we see the unity, peace, love and other higher frequencies reflected back to us in our external lives. This can occur to the point where for more and more people, they may rarely if ever have to feel some of the most dense and stagnant energies and experiences of the old earth playing out for other people in other places.

This doesn’t mean we won’t have compassion or feel a sense of unconditional love for those who are suffering. In fact, if we are truly aligned with new earth, we will feel immense compassion and love for others. And with this feeling of love and caring, we are in service to the others even from afar.

Keep in mind that this is all not as cut and dry as it sounds. Most of the areas of the earth including the human consciousness in those locations are mixed, where old and new earth exist literally side by side. And of course the same goes with what we carry inside of ourselves.

An example is a province like Bali where Balinese women’s rights are restricted yet at the same time, the beauty and energy/consciousness of the land is phenomenal and the opportunity to access a variety of amazing spiritual practices, ceremonies and rituals is offered daily in many different settings.

But no matter what our personal realities may be like, we are ALL in the process of moving fully into the new earth frequency. This is what ascension is all about!

So going back to the why and what’s behind all of this new and old earth explanation…

It’s all about where we feel called right now. In our desire to be in service, spread our love, creativity, generosity or light, we need to decide how we’d like to express ourselves most authentically in this time. For some it will be an expansion of the same roles while for others it might be in novel ways and new locations!

And in the offering of your service you might be called to spread your light and love in an old earth area even if you don’t resonate with it. You could also know that your right place might be in more of a new earth area where you can more easily be a wayshower who gently points others in the right direction so they can create a new earth reality for themselves.

This is all worth taking in and reflecting on as we start off this beautiful new year of 2026.

So finish your healing and resting in early February and you will feel the motivation to move forward mid-month. But most of all, remember to fill your own cup first! During this love month, practice more ways to self-love and you will know exactly the right medicine to mix for your beloveds and the beings you are called to assist in the greater collective.

Enjoy the journey in this brand new beginning of expanded soul’s purpose and service!

With love & inspiration!

Have a Happy Valentine’s love-month!

~Love, Heather
