A Winter Reflection & Invitation

Hey Celestial Souls,

We made it to the last month of this year. If you’re in the US, it probably felt like 5 years rolled into one. Whew!

The final chapter of 2025 is here, and we’re walking into the longest night of the year. Winter Solstice, A sacred pause. A reset. A return to the root.

This is the moment when we honor the dark, not as something to fear, but as the fertile place where new life forms.

And baby, new life is forming.

Here’s what’s rising…

🐍 The Year of the Snake Is Shedding With Love

2025 has been the Year of the Snake. A time of truth-telling, shedding illusions, and initiating deep transformation.

I’ve shed partnerships.

Old business models.

Outgrown beliefs.

And parts of myself that no longer fit the future I’m walking into.

This year didn’t break me.

It built me.

📘 Book #4: And She Was Loved… Always in All Ways

I’m beyond proud (and honestly, still catching my breath) to announce that my fourth book has been published and is now available at Barnes & Noble.

🦋 And She Was Loved… Always in All Ways is not just a book, it’s a testimony. A poetic memoir. A prayer and a praise for the women who’ve had to love themselves back to life.

This is for the romantics, the realists, the broken-hearted, and the beautifully whole.

It’s for you.

And it’s for me.

Because I’m still learning, still rising, still loving loudly and without apology.

🌬️ Winter Solstice: The Sacred Pause Before the Leap

On December 21st, I’ll be sitting in stillness.

Lighting candles.

Pouring tea.

And giving thanks for the hard, the holy, and the hilarious moments that shaped me this year.

Here’s a ritual you can try too:

🕯️ Light a candle.

✍🏾 Write down everything you’re ready to release.

🔥 Burn it, bury it, or bless it.

🌱 Then write what you’re ready to rise into in 2026: clarity, softness, wealth, creativity, commitment.

Let this Solstice be a womb, not a tomb.

Let your next life be born through reflection, not reaction.

🐎 2026: The Year of the Horse – Momentum, Movement & Manifestation

We’re heading into the Year of the Horse, and I can feel it already:

Freedom. Fire. Forward motion.

My business is being reborn with more clarity, more courage, and more capacity.

I’m not shrinking or shifting, I’m shining.

2026 is about:

 • Curated community

 • Clean currency

 • Conscious care

 • And creating legacies that last

And I want you to ride into the next year beside me, with intention and joy.

✨ Final Affirmation of 2025

“I close this year with devotion, not distraction.

I release with reverence.

I rise with radiant readiness.”

💭In Closing…

We’ve been through heartbreak and harvest.

Softness and strategy.

Fright Fest with the kids and full-body laughs under moonlight.

New books. New bruises. New blessings.

And now, we pause. We exhale. We listen.

Because what’s next isn’t just a new year.

It’s a new YOU.

Thank you for being part of this sacred spiral.

For reading. For replying. For believing.

Let’s walk into 2026 not as fragments, but as full and free beings.

With sacred laughter,

Nikki Brown
