Three Days That Shape the Year
Share
Using Auspicious Qi to Close One Chapter and Enter 2026 with Clarity
The space between Christmas and the New Year often feels unusual.
Time softens.
Routines loosen.
Some people feel reflective, others restless — and many feel both.
From a Feng Shui and Qi perspective, this is not accidental.
The final days of the year hold a quiet potency — especially when certain auspicious energies align.
This year, we are gifted a beautiful trilogy of days — 29 December, 31 December, and 1 January — each carrying a different quality of Qi that supports completion, openness, and gentle renewal.
You don’t need to be “spiritual” or experienced in Feng Shui to work with these days.
You simply need a few minutes of awareness and intention.
29 December – Success Day & Phoenix Day
Rising Gently, with Clarity
29 December is both a Success Day and a Phoenix Day — a rare and supportive combination.
Success Days help things align more easily.
Phoenix Days are about renewal, wisdom, and rising after change — not through force, but through clarity.
This day supports:
• Setting intentions
• Making aligned decisions
• Reclaiming focus
• Beginning something meaningful (even quietly)
It’s a powerful day to acknowledge how far you’ve come — especially after a year of inner transformation.
A Simple 5-Minute Ritual
Open a window or door.
Light a candle.
Place one hand on your heart and one on your belly.
Take three slow breaths.
Intention
“I rise with clarity and ease.
I welcome supportive energy into my home, my relationships, my health, and my life.”
This is not about doing more — it’s about choosing what matters.
31 December – Open Day
Making Space for What Wants to Enter
31 December is an Open Day — a day that supports movement, opportunity, and new pathways.
Open Days work best when we’ve already created space.
They respond to openness, not pressure.
Rather than filling the day with expectation, this is a wonderful time to allow the energy to move naturally — through conversations, ideas, or moments of clarity.
A Simple 5-Minute Ritual
Clear one small area — a bench, a desk, or your entry space.
Stand there for a moment and breathe.
Intention
“I am open to what supports me.
I welcome opportunities that align with my well-being and values.”
You don’t need to chase opportunity.
When space is made, it finds you.
1 January – Close Day with Auspicious Qi
Sealing the Energy with Intention
Close Days are often misunderstood — yet they are incredibly valuable.
1 January is a Close Day with very auspicious Qi, making it ideal for:
• Sealing intentions
• Honouring completion
• Protecting your energy
• Letting go cleanly
This is not a day to push forward.
It’s a day to close the door gently behind you.
Especially as we move through the final phase of the Year of the Snake, this day helps us integrate the lessons, growth, and shedding that have already occurred.
A Simple 5-Minute Ritual
Write one sentence for the year ahead.
Place it somewhere meaningful in your home.
Intention
“I close this chapter with gratitude.
I carry forward only what nourishes me.”
Rest is part of the process.
Integration matters.
Completing the Year of the Snake
Preparing for What Comes Next
The Year of the Snake has been one of truth, shedding, and deep inner realignment.
Before new momentum arrives, we are invited to:
• Finish well
• Let go consciously
• Honour how we have changed
January brings gentle new beginnings.
February welcomes the movement and courage of the Yang Fire Horse.
But first — we close, we open, and we seal.
These three days offer a simple yet powerful way to step forward without rushing, carrying only what truly belongs with you.
A Closing Blessing
May your home support you.
May your energy feel clear and steady.
May you enter the year ahead with ease, intention, and trust.
You’re doing this beautifully,— it feels very you 🤍
Happy Feng Shui ing Leanne
