I am writing today on 22nd dec 2025

The last 9 days of 2025…

Nine quiet days to pause.

To look back with honesty.

To soften what was heavy.

To honour what shaped us.

Let us say a gentle goodbye to 2025 

with gratitude for the lessons,

forgiveness for what didn’t work,

and compassion for the version of us that tried its best.

Not everything was easy.

Not everything went as planned.

Yet everything taught us something about patience, strength, boundaries, love, and self-trust.

As these days pass, we release: old disappointments, emotional residue, unmet expectations, and stories that no longer feel true.

And we carry forward: wisdom, clarity, resilience, and a deeper understanding of ourselves.

2026 doesn’t need a perfect version of you.

It needs a warmer heart, a clearer mind, and a fresher energy.

May you step into the new year feeling lighter, calmer, and more aligned —

ready to receive, ready to grow, ready to begin again.

Warmth within.

Freshness ahead.

These last 9 days are not just an ending.

They are a sacred pause — a space between who you were and who you are becoming.

Sit gently with 2025.

Thank it not only for the smiles,

but also for the moments that broke you open, slowed you down, or forced you to look within.

Some days taught you strength.

Some taught you surrender.

Some taught you boundaries.

Some taught you self-respect.

And some simply taught you how to survive — and that itself is a blessing.

Release the need to judge the year.

Release the need to label it as good or bad.

Every experience was shaping your inner maturity in ways you may only understand later.

As you walk into 2026,

don’t rush with resolutions.

Walk in with presence.

With softer expectations.

With kinder self-talk.

With trust that life is working with you, not against you.

Let 2026 begin with: more warmth in your heart,

more calm in your reactions,

more honesty in your choices,

and more faith in your own timing.

You are not starting from zero.

You are starting from experience, wisdom, and growth.

Breathe out the old.

Breathe in the new.

A fresh chapter is already unfolding.

🌟 2026 — When Destiny Turns and Inner Power Awakens

Wheel of Fortune (10) meets The Magician (1)

The year 2026 carries the vibration of both 10 and 1 — a rare and powerful combination.

In Tarot language, this means The Wheel of Fortune turning old cycles and The Magician awakening personal power.

This is a year where life does not happen to you — it responds to you.

The Wheel of Fortune reminds us that change is inevitable. Situations shift, doors open and close, timing rearranges itself. But the Magician reminds us of something even more important — you are not powerless while the wheel turns. You have intention, choice, skill, awareness, and the ability to direct energy.

2026 asks you to become conscious of what you are creating — not just through actions, but through thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. Challenges will arise, but they are not meant to break you. They are invitations to see differently, act wisely, and transform obstacles into stepping stones.

This year rewards inspired action.

When you move with clarity instead of fear, destiny begins to cooperate.

When you embrace change rather than resist it, growth becomes natural.

Breakthroughs in 2026 will not come by force — they will come through alignment.

♈ Aries — The Chariot & Queen of Wands

Victory through focused fire

For Aries, 2026 ignites leadership energy. The Chariot urges you to take charge of your direction, while the Queen of Wands reminds you to lead with confidence, passion, and self-belief. This is a year where your health strengthens as you make disciplined choices rather than impulsive ones. When you direct your energy instead of scattering it, vitality naturally returns.

Financially, progress comes through decisive action. Ventures that require courage, visibility, and initiative are supported — provided they are guided by focus rather than restlessness. Emotionally, peace grows when you stop overthinking and trust your instincts.

Relationships ask you to balance independence with presence. You do not need to dim your fire — only to share its warmth consciously.

2026 opens victorious paths for Aries when determination is paired with clarity.

— Roop Lakhani

♉ Taurus — Seven of Cups & The Hierophant

From confusion to grounded wisdom

Taurus enters 2026 learning the art of simplicity. The Seven of Cups shows how scattered choices and illusions may have created overwhelm in the past. The Hierophant now calls you back to grounding, structure, and inner truth.

Health improves as routines become sacred rather than restrictive. Wealth grows when you stop exploring too many options and commit to one aligned direction. Spiritually, this is a year of deep learning — guidance appears through mentors, traditions, or inner wisdom.

Relationships stabilise when fantasy is replaced by authenticity.

2026 rewards Taurus for choosing clarity over comfort and wisdom over distraction.

— Roop Lakhani

♊ Gemini — The Magician & Seven of Wands

Your voice becomes your power

For Gemini, 2026 is a year of manifestation through communication. The Magician activates your mind, ideas, and skills, while the Seven of Wands reminds you to protect your energy and stand firm in your truth.

Health improves as mind and body align — when thoughts are disciplined, nervous energy calms. Financially, ideas become income when you trust your originality and defend your worth. Peace comes from knowing when to say yes and when to say no.

Relationships require honest communication and boundaries.

This year teaches Gemini that magic happens when you believe in your voice and stand by it.

Relationships flourish through loyalty, commitment, and shared goals.

This year asks Leo to lead not just for applause, but for impact.

2026 teaches Virgo that endings are not punishments — they are preparation.

— Roop Lakhani
