Neptune Ignites A New Beginning | Astrology & Energy Update | Magical Michelle Orwick

A once-in-165-years spark just lit the sky—and your inner world. Neptune leaves Pisces for Aries, shifting the tone from water to fire and inviting us to claim clarity, courage, and a fresh start. We unpack what this transit means for your energy, why eclipse season turns the volume up, and how the Leo full moon landing on Imbolc can help you clear space and relight your inner flame. The theme is simple and powerful: regulate first, act second.

We walk step by step through practical tools to move from a collapsed, primal state into an elevated, coherent state. You’ll learn a two-minute breath practice to signal safety to your nervous system, posture resets to open the chest and lengthen the spine, and simple movement—yoga twists, walking, vibration work—that gets stuck energy flowing. From there, we guide you into visualization: expand a sphere of light around your body for protection, send unconditional love to friends, cities, and countries like an energetic care package, and call your attention back from scattered places so you can stand strong.

Rituals matter during turning points. We share Imbolc-friendly home clearing—candles, salt by the bed, and supportive crystals like selenite and rose quartz—to match the inner housekeeping. We also explore holding a compassionate vision for a kinder world while the old one cracks open, drawing on timeless teachings of forgiveness and service. As bigger shifts line up on the horizon, including a fiery eclipse and other major planetary moves, the invitation is to breathe, regulate, and embody your light daily—five to ten micro-practices that change everything.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 0:19

Welcome to Living Magically. I am your host, Magical Michelle. And this week we have one of those powerhouse weeks you just can't make up. It's a once-in-a-lifetime transition. We are leaving, Neptune is leaving the sign of Pisces and moving into Aries. I'm filming this on Monday, the 26th, and it is happening as we speak, right now. And we'll feel it all week. That shift from the water and into the fire, and it's a new beginning. It's something that hasn't happened in 165 years. And even this shift, it's a slow-moving planet. We've been in a 13-year cycle, and completing because Aries is always the first sign of the zodiac, we're completing a hundred sifle. There's so much going on in the world. Whatever you're experiencing is valid. And you have your own personal power. You're allowed to feel whatever it is that you feel. And when that happens, there is a magical moment, though, where you get to be at choice because everything can go on around you, but ultimately the lesson here is that you are the light. You are the love. And if the world is going to be a changing place, it comes back to regulating our nervous system. It comes back to stepping into our power. It comes back to being the good in the world as it may look like it's falling apart, but I believe that it has to crack open to become what we need the world to be. You're gonna see that this is a very intense time. We're coming into eclipse season. We've got a fiery um eclipse, it's a solar eclipse on the new moon of the fire horse year. It's a fire horse year, it's a it's an eclipse, a fire ring of fire eclipse on the 17th. So you're seeing this energy as we're coming into the full moon, as we're coming into in bulk, as we're coming into the month of February. Today and tomorrow we're closing the 111 portal. Today is the 26th, so that adds up to if you add one and two and six and one, you know, you're getting another one of those nines, and then tomorrow you're gonna see it move into the one again. So you're gonna have a one-one one portal tomorrow where all of this ends up being this whole week the closure of the end of the snake as we literally ignite the fire. We're going to see this Leo full moon open up and illuminate so much. We're going to have this weekend an opportunity, and and I like a full moon to clear my house. And it's interesting that it's falling on in bulk or candle mass. It's the halfway mark between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. So this is the point where we clear our houses, we clear our altars, it's a bridget um holiday, and so this is the keeper of wells, the keeper of fires and hearths. It's light your house up with candles. Light and clean and clear your mind. You are the light, you are the love. So as this world is dumping cold on us, it's cold. There's snow, there's a blizzard with um epic proportions. People are forced to go inside, we're forced to be quiet, we're forced to sit with ourselves, and so take that time as the still point to bring your own self back to your center. Instead of being led by everyone else, be led by your own internal. There's only two states of being: there's a primal state and a collapse state. So if you're in an elevated state, a primal let me rephrase that. You're either in an elevated state or a primal state. And the primal state is collapsed. It means that you're in fight or flight, you're in fear, worry, concern, you don't physically feel well, you don't emotionally feel well, you're in um a trauma response, anger, shutdown, overwhelm, all of that. And and that is a dysregulated nervous system. So the first thing you want to do is to tell your body you're safe. In any moment, you can reset your body by being two minutes, eyes closed, with deep breathing. They call breathing the breath of life. So in these crazy times, breath work exercises is one of the best ways to reconnect with yourself. Closing your eyes, place your hand on your heart, and breathe for a few minutes. Breathe out worry, fear, concern. Breathe in peace, harmony, and coherence. Imagine bringing the energy up from the earth and repowering yourself. Your battery can be recharged from the earth. Imagine bringing the energy from the sun, your solar powered, you're a plant. You want to have water, you want to have air, and you want to have um have some sunlight and re-regulate. Now, if we're stuck inside, ways to do that is to imagine the light. Ways to do that is to bring the light in powerfully through meditation. Make sure you're breathing into your diaphragm and expanding your body because a collapsed state, anytime we're just huddling in fetal position or our shoulders aren't in alignment and our spines aren't in alignment, we can't have the breath move through us. We can't have the light move through us. Our heart is a spark of the divine spark of all it is. You are the light. I'm gonna say this over and over over the next, I don't know, maybe a year, maybe forever, because this is the message to be in the state of compassion, to be in the state of alignment, to be in the state of coherence. Your physical form should be strong, and so do your exercises. I have um I have coined this term self-health instead of just self-help, self-help, get out, maybe walk. If you are stuck inside, walk on a treadmill. I have a vibration plate, you can shake things up a little bit, but do something that actually gets your body moving. Yoga is an incredible form of this, and it helps you practice leaning into a position, and it also helps you work out what's stuck in the body. So literally twist your spine around. Oh, and feel as you feel taller. If you can expand your spine by imagining that you have a string through the top of your head and it pulls you up, and that you also have an anchor that you're dropping through your tailbone into the earth. You can do this standing too, in which case you're gonna have your feet at shoulder length apart, and you're gonna breathe up into your diaphragm, and you're gonna hold that breath in your heart as you're gonna ignite that spark, and then you're gonna imagine sending it up through the top of your head. You're gonna feel that love in your heart. First, it's gonna clear your system. So, just like when you're on the airplane and they tell you to put your oxygen mask on first, bring yourself back to your breath. Bring yourself back to your center, bring yourself back into a form that is powerful. And that power state can help you move to an elevated state. From that elevated state, you can start imagining sending love, sending light to anyone and everything that is needed. If you have a friend that's stuck in a snowstorm and you're concerned about them, send them light. If you have someone that is in a in a negative environment, imagine them, send them light. Think of it as like an Amazon package. You're imagining sending them a little bit of light through the world. Then imagine sending light into you, into every cell. Tell your body you love it. Tell your cell, thank you for radiant health, thank you, body, for being with me. I'm sorry that I'm always pushing you. I'm gonna get some rest, I'm gonna drink some water, I'm going to get some exercise. And sometimes it's just the littlest things. Don't try and do it all. Just remember to go back to breathing and moving and stretching and imagining. This is the time to return your own light in the darkness. So we have the darkness, that's a still point. In the darkness, we can see what is necessary. But remember that you are always more powerful than you think. You don't have to do anything but remember who you are. That's a memory. Remember your power, remember your strength, remember and reclaim. It's an initiation right now. We are deep in the initiatory fires of transformation. This is going to be a very ignited year. It's a fire horse year. Fire, like the sign of Leo, like our full moon, is about personal and collective power. And we're returning the power back to ourselves. So start by calling all your soul fragments back. Start by calling all your attention back to yourself and remembering that you have the power to be in a powerful state, that you have the power to be embodied. The magic is to be embodied. The enlightenment comes as a body filled with light. If you can do that one simple remembering and practice, someone asked me recently, how often do I do it? And it's probably five to ten times a day. It is just a simple return to your structure of a powerful body, no collapsed space, no bending over the computer. I do it too. No holding my phone in front of my face. But actually, remembering that my body structure spinal alignment, there's a reason why they used to put the books on the top of the head. But just imagine you have a string, and that's a they that's a sunbeam coming in through your head. And if your neck is off, actually find that straight neck, relax it by doing shoulder and neck curls. Bring your your shoulders all the way up to your ears and relax. These are just simple exercises to help you bring your physiology back to a powerful state. And when you do that, you're going to start feeling more open. When you start feeling more open, expand your field to the edge of your fingertips. That should be above you and out to the sides, right and left, in front of you and behind you and below you. Imagine that you're in a beautiful ball of light. This is the most powerful form of protection you will ever see. If someone's in a bad mood and you're in love, you're in power, you're in your light, you're in your embodiment, they can't take that away from you. So you're putting a shield of protection around you by holding yourself in a ball of light. And if you're wondering what to do for someone, if you feel powerless and far away from someone you love or someone you're thinking about, imagine putting them in a ball of light. Just imagine seeing them light up from the inside and a ball of light around them. Imagine sending them love. Imagine sending them support. It's like sending them a little energetic boost. And we do say this is unconditional love because if they don't want it, they don't have to accept it. We're not taking anyone's free will away here, but we send it to cities that need it, we send it to states that need it, we send it to countries that need it, and we send it to individual people that need it. Um, we do this live at Soul Circles on Monday night. So if you're watching this and you're in Orlando, you still have time to come at 7 o'clock to the urban ashram and join us for doing this in person. We'll do a healing circle. We'll be talking about this more in depth and doing it as a group consciousness. If you are not in Orlando, or even if you are and you're not free on Monday nights, please join us in the new Living Magical Circle. We have a portal that's going to be doing online love vibration alignment activations, group consciousness work three times or more a month online. And so please feel free to join the Living Magically group. We have a beautiful preparing for in bulk uh ritual that is on Thursday night at 7. And then at six o'clock, just as the sun is setting on the first, on the night of the full moon, on the night of the eve of in bulk, as we enter into the 2-2 vibration. Um, we will be doing a ceremony for the full moon for in bulk together. And you can buy that separately if you just want to come to that one activation. We'll be doing that on February 1st, and we'll be doing that at 6 o'clock. And then again on the 2nd, 2-2, we will be doing a circle at the Urban Oshram Monday nights. So we'll be doing the 2-2 activation in person in Orlando. So that's how you can get involved. But let's just send a little bit of love and activation in right now. It's a perfect week, as I said, to clear your house, sage your house, clear your altar if you do, light some candles. I like to put out salt this time of year to cleanse and purify the space. In fact, I put salt by my bed so that I'm clearing the negativity. Um, selenite is another good one for near your bed to clear your negativity of this beautiful big ball of selenite, bar of selenite, and I can just run it over my field. So you might have a small piece of selenite, you can hold that in your heart. Rose quartz, any kind of uplifting or heart chakra crystals, solar plexus crystals, um, throat crystals. So for me, celestialite, um, rose quartz, kunzite, all of these are going to be really good crystals to work with. I'm actually wearing a rose quartz um right now. And you're essentially you're working with the vibration of unconditional love, you're working with the vibration of divine love, you're working with the vibration of igniting the light within you, remembering that you are a divine spark of the energy of all that is, reminding yourself that you are the flame bearer, you are the light keeper, you are the one holding the lantern, you are the lighthouse. That's what this particular weekend is going to be. If you're looking at the full moon, what are you doing for this full moon? It happens to fall on in bulk. It is illuminating the way to the new earth, it is illuminating the way. So, how do we hold it? The dark side, the control side, is holding a vision of control, it's holding a vision of collapsing our beautiful society. We need to be just as powerful in holding the vision of the new earth, holding the vision of our empowerment, holding the vision of compassion. I have Kwan Yin up here. And the way we do that is to hold unconditional love, even for those who may not understand it, with the hopes that everybody has a spark that can turn for the light. Everyone can find good. This is why Jesus preached forgiveness. Forgive them for they know not what they do. This is why Jesus helped the lepers. The poor, the immigrants, the people who had no home. This is what we're going to do. We're going to band together as a community, as the light, as love. We are the change. We just in holding a powerful state in our own heart, by just making a temple in your own home, by being the vessel of receiving the light, being the person who lights the candles and sends the illumination out into the world. This is how we perform our duty right now. So that one day we have new earth. One day we have a better place to be. One day, and that day could be tomorrow. That day could be a lot closer than you think. If you hold the quantum timeline of it, it is commanded to be on the joy timeline, to be on the love timeline, to be on the peace timeline. And I do this every day. I command radiant health into the cells of my body, and I command love and peace into the world that I am living on the timeline that brings about joy and peace and love and compassion to every single human, animal, and plant on this earth. The entire planet is filled with light. And I see that light being brought into the cells of the bodies, being brought in to activate the DNA of the people, being brought into the air that we breathe and the and the breath of life that we spark by taking a deep breath into our chest, by being in a spinal straight alignment and taking a deep breath in, the full breath of life, and remembering, remembering that we are powerful and we are love and we are light. And that's how we hold. That's how we hold the light. And this holiday is just about that. This is the return of the light. We are seeing every day get brighter in the sky. And with this moon, we see the full illumination of what is coming and what is possible. Next month we have a big, huge lunar eclipse. We have a massive planet Saturn moving into Aries. We're going to be seeing the world move to a new place, a new world, a new timeline. And we can't turn back from here. From here, we become new Earth. But remember, it sometimes feels a little bit messy. And in that, remember to breathe. The number one thing I invite you to do is breathe and hold your own light and regulate your nervous system. Self-care, self-love, and self-embodiment. And with that, I invite you to join the Living Magically portal and come join us in sharing this as a community. You don't have to do it alone. Nobody's alone. We're all in this together. And I love you. Live magically.
