It’s 2024! Are you feeling the amplified energy?!
This year is about empowerment, action, and abundance. It’s about accelerated growth and expansion.
It is on.
According to the Chinese zodiac, 2024 is The Year of the Dragon, so what will be highlighted? Courage, tenacity, and taking risks — because enthusiasm and confidence will be riding high, my friends.
2024 is also a Universal 8 Year, according to numerology. What’s numerology? The AstroTwins in their yearly horoscope explain:
"In numerology, each calendar year adds up to a single-digit number, which holds a unique energetic influence and imprint. We all feel this energy, and it’s called the Universal Year. During this 12-month period, everyone on the planet experiences the energy of a particular number, from January 1 until December 31.”
So, what to expect with a 8 Year? Oh, it’s good. It’s a year to:
Accelerate
Make intentional moves and leaps forward
Claim your power
Commit to what you want
Materialize and manifest your dreams
Create abundance
Have a clear vision of our future and believe it’s possible
Take action
Seize the bounty of opportunities
Step outside of your comfort zone
Align with your authentic calling in life
Share your wealth and "stimulate the economy with businesses and people whose values you support"
Be grateful!

Speaking of The AstroTwins...
I’m kicking off the new year with Season 2 of my podcast, Hold the Light — and what better way to do it than with Ophira Edit (Ophi) from The AstroTwins.
Ophi and her twin sister Tali, are bestselling authors, speakers, and astrology experts. They are the co-founders of the global brand Astrostyle, which reaches millions of loyal readers around the world. In the fall of 2023, they launched The AstroTwins Network, the first live, interactive network to use astrology.
So, it seemed fitting to talk with Ophi about this new year ahead and what to expect according to astrology.
They are calling 2024 The Year of Transcendent Leadership, which we get into as well as other themes for the year ahead. As Ophi says, the old model of leadership is no longer working and we are now looking to ourselves.
We touch up upcoming key astrological events and interesting things we may see happen, how 2024 is a Universal 8 year – and what that means, and Ophi shares ways that we can work with astrology through our daily practices.

Speaking of Transcendent Leadership…
Where in your life will lead in 2024? This doesn’t have to be big, lofty ideas, unless you want them to be (and in that case, go for it.)
This is about the transcendent leadership that rises within us. It’s looking at where we can lead within our lives.
Will you choose transcendent leadership in your personal daily practices and routines, and in how you’re showing up for yourself?
Will you choose transcendent leadership in how you parent, or in your relationships?
Will you choose transcendent leadership at work or within your community, or in spaces such as social media?
As Ophi says, transcendent leadership is not about solving problems at the level of the problem — it’s looking at things from different angles.
Where and how we elevate in the year ahead is up to each of us. Where will you choose?
