January has never felt like a true reset for Morgan, and in this episode, she explains why. Rather than following the traditional New Year’s resolution cycle, Morgan shares how Imbolc has functioned as her real energetic New Year for over 20 years.

Drawing from her long-standing relationship with the goddess Brigid, Morgan explores how Imbolc operates as a slow awakening rather than a forced restart. This episode isn’t about Sabbat correspondences or ritual instructions. Instead, it focuses on what Imbolc does: how it lights the inner flame of inspiration, clarity, and motivation before action is ever required.

For listeners who struggle with New Year’s resolutions or feel disconnected from January goal-setting, this episode offers a validating reframe: they may not be behind, they may simply be aligned differently.

In this episode, Morgan discusses:

  • Why January 1st often feels energetically disconnected
  • How Imbolc serves as a natural reset point instead of a forced one
  • The difference between inspiration and immediate action
  • How Brigid’s energy has shaped Morgan’s yearly rhythm
  • Why honoring personal energetic patterns matters more than following the calendar
  • How slow emergence creates sustainable momentum

This episode is for witches who value intuition over performance, seasonal flow over hustle, and magick that integrates into real life.
