January Check In: Embracing the Energy of Hibernation

Blessings, Coven.


As continue our journey through January,  it’s easy to feel the pressure of a “new year, new you” mentality. The world of social media buzzes loudly with resolutions, ambitious goals, and the relentless urge to push forward and to be bigger and better than you were.


But in reality, nature encourages us to take a different path.

We are still in the season of hibernation—a time for rest, reflection, and quiet manifesting. Just as the earth remains resting, so too should we embrace this period of stillness with open arms.


There’s no rush to bloom; instead, focus on planting the seeds of your intentions.

What dreams are you nurturing beneath the surface? 

What quiet growth are you doing during this Winter season?


This month, practice tuning out the noise of hustle and graft. Disconnect from the endless stream of “shoulds” and instead tune inward. Allow yourself to rest without guilt and find peace in the slower rhythm of winter.

Plant your seeds with care, knowing that the work you do now—though invisible—will bloom brightly soon. For now, trust in the cycle of the seasons and let yourself simply be.

What seeds of intention are you planting this January?
