New Year's traditions vary around the world. A new year is often seen as a fresh start, a unique opportunity to grow and expand our lives. A new year offers new hope and 365 blank pages to keep writing our lives story.

In Greece, the Greeks believe that onions are a symbol of rebirth, and so they hang the pungent vegetable on their doors to promote growth throughout the new year. Greek culture has long associated this food with the idea of development, seeing as all the odorous onion ever seemingly wants is to plant its roots and keep growing.

In Russia, it is New Year's Eve tradition for folks to write their wishes down on a piece of paper, burn them with a candle, and drink the subsequent ashes in a glass of champagne.

In Ecuador, New Year's Eve festivities are lit up by bonfires. Burnings of the "Año Viejo" are held at the end of every year to cleanse the world of bad omens that took place during the past 12 months and make room for the good to come.

Here in the States, New Year Resolutions is a popular tradition that is infamously short-lived for many participants. Is very common for people to focus and discuss their new year goals and what they plan to accomplish in the new year.

All of the traditions described above have common threads in common. They all focus on setting higher intentions for the future and that we are all worthy of second chances. These are all energetic traditions that focus on cleansing the old and calling in the new by focusing our energy on what we want to create in this new year.

None of these traditions focus on magical wish-granting. Yet, so many of us make our new year wishes, manifestation lists, and resolutions and think that these wishes will be magically granted and appear in our lives the following year.

This is the main reason why most of us give up on our new year resolutions and why so many of us feel like a failure afterward. The thing is that there is no magic. Once you identify where you want to grow and how that growth feels, you have to take energetic aligned action in the direction of what you are calling in.

To create a new you, a new vibe, a new life, you must be like the onion and be willing to plant your roots and do the daily work to grow into your dreams. You must cleanse your energetic real estate so that you can raise your energetic vibrations.

Manifestations, Resolutions, Goals, whatever you want to call it; you only need to apply the following equation to make your manifestations come to life:

INTENTION + DESIRE + ENERGY + ALIGNED ACTION= MANIFESTATION

The above equation allows you to calibrate all the above elements in perfect harmony so that you can GROW INTO YOUR DREAMS.

The magic solution you seek is inside of you. You are the magician and the genie. You are the alchemist; you can alchemize your pain into power. Start alchemizing your fears and your doubts into empowerment potions. You don't need a new year, a new month, or a new day. All you need is to decide that you are worthy of doing the work for yourself RIGHT NOW.

Wishing you all a Magnetic & Joyous New Year!!

Rooting for your Awakening, AM ❤️
