The very first new moon of 2026 will grace our sky on Sunday, January 18th. New moons are transits all about planting fertile seeds of manifestation. It’s about getting clear on what you’re calling in and aligning yourself with the reality in which it’s yours. This very first new moon will be in the sign of Capricorn, which rules over one’s relationship to the things that give us stability. That means career, money, and our productive output. Here are a few affirmations and journaling prompts to align yourself with that energy in the week leading up to the new moon.

Feel free to write these affirmations down or repeat them to yourself throughout the day, and set a five-minute timer to answer the journaling prompt with presence and intention.
