Looney New Year > Lunar New Year
Beginning the year with a cavalcade of catastrophies
as the universe is running me through a gauntlet of challenges ๐๐คฆ๐คท
There is a strong sense of emergence ๐ฆโ๐ฅ
This led me to reflect on the different energies of the two new year celebrations and the space between
I'm looking forward to this clearing, this shedding, this renewal as we move toward the true - new - year coming in February
The new year of January 1st is on a Gregorian calendar not synched with nature
๐ Lunisolar new year is 17 February 2026
Think of Jan 1 โ Feb 17 as a threshold season
... A slow hinge opening
... The space between exhale and inhale
Hereโs a map that explores this span as a reset window, rather than a single ceremonial pop ๐
๐ New Year Buffer Zone ๐
A somatic, energy-aware map
โจ Phase 1: Decompression + Clearing
Jan 1 โ Jan 14
Energy: Lowest tide
Body rhythm: Nervous system downshift, digestion and immunity front and center
Whatโs actually happening:
- Hormonal systems are recalibrating after holidays
- Sleep is higher
- Motivation is inconsistent and scattered
Use of this phase:
- Reduce inputs. Fewer decisions, fewer commitments
- Gentle movement. Walks, mobility, circulation
- Notice without needing to fix. What feels heavy?
Reframe:
> You're not โfalling behind"...this is recalibration
โจ Phase 2: Orientation + Sensing
Jan 15 โ Jan 29
Energy: Returning, uneven
Body rhythm: Curiosity before capacity
Whatโs happening:
- Light is increasing
- Cortisol rhythm stabilizes
- Focus returns before stamina
Use of this phase:
- Notice patterns. When do you feel alert? resistant?
- Try small shifts before setting habits
- Ask better questions before setting goals
Reframe:
> Direction comes from awareness, not force
โจ Phase 3: Integration + Choice
Jan 30 โ Feb 10
Energy: Rising, more reliable
Body rhythm: Coordination of mind and body
Whatโs happening:
- Energy becomes predictable
- Muscles more responsive
- Cognitive clarity improves
Use of this phase:
- Choose themes, not tasks
- Commit to fewer things with more care
- Build rhythms, not resolutions
Reframe:
> Consistency begins when the body is ready
โจ Phase 4: Initiation
Feb 11 โ Feb 17
Energy: Clean upward arc
Body rhythm: Resilient readiness
This aligns with the lunisolar New Year window, anchored to the new moon used in celebrations like Lunar New Year.
Use of this phase:
- Name the year intentionally
- Begin only what you will repeat
- Let action be simple and flow
Reframe:
> Start when something clicks
๐ The Reset Window Principle
Rather than a total overhaul approach
โNew Year, New Meโ
Explore revitalization:
Clear the old โ Sense the new โ Choose โ Begin
Instead of a single date it's more like a 47-day biological transition
During this time and throughout lunar phases of the year reflect:
โWhat is ending?
โWhat is returning?
โWhat is rising?
Grow through!
Enjoy life, moving through time, phase by phase

๐จ๏ธ Do you track the lunar cycles throughout the year?
๐จ๏ธ Which new year celebration resonates?
May this year and every year bless you with Healthy Wealthy WISE Life ๐ค
