Capricorn New Moon Cacao & Gong Ceremony — A Divine Divination for the Year Ahead
The January 2026 New Moon in Capricorn invites us into the quiet, sacred stillness of winter — a time when the veil of the mountains feels closest, clearest, and most willing to speak. Capricorn is the great keeper of long-term vision, soul-purpose, discipline, and ancestral wisdom. It’s the elder of the zodiac, the mountain peak that calls us inward and upward, the reminder that all true growth begins with deep listening.
In many Indigenous traditions, including the Mayan teachings Sorrell has learned within, the Apus — the Mountain Spirits — are the guardians of all wisdom across time. They hold memory, prophecy, and perspective far beyond human years. When we approach the elders of the mountains in ceremony, we approach the oldest, wisest keepers of truth.
This New Moon offers a sacred opening to consult the Mountain Elders, receive their guidance for the year ahead, and receive a gift — an energetic blessing, tool, or teaching — to carry with you through 2026.
And what better way to make this journey than with ceremonial cacao and a deep, restorative gong bath, all within the warmth of a Sunday afternoon?
✨ Why this ceremony beautifully complements the Capricorn New Moon
💗 Ceremonial Cacao opens the heart while grounding the spirit.
Capricorn energy can sometimes feel focused, serious, or introspective — cacao brings warmth, softness, and emotional safety. It helps you settle into your body, calm your mind, and open the inner gateways needed for divination, intuition, and receiving guidance.
🔔 Gong sound healing creates an effortless pathway into visionary states.
The vibrations help settle the nervous system, soften mental chatter, and create the inner spaciousness required to meet guides, spirits, and archetypal beings. It’s a gentle, nurturing way to journey deep without force or effort.
🏔️ Shamanic Journey to the Mountain Elders.
Guided by Sorrell, Plant Spirit Medicine Woman, you’ll be safely and lovingly led into a visionary landscape where the ancient elders of the mountains await.
What wisdom will they offer you?
What truth will they reveal about the year ahead?
And what sacred gift will they place in your hands to support your path?
You don’t need prior journeying experience — Sorrell will guide you every step of the way.
