Talking Smack 415 December's Energetic Forecast: Maia's Take
December is here and when Jamie the Great and I sit down with Maia in Talking Smack’s 415 Energetic forecast Maia’s take, we learn it’s giving “horse sprinting at full speed” energy… but the actual message?
Slow. Down.
The year flew by, the holidays are chaos, and it’s tempting to keep galloping so you don’t have to feel your feelings — but nope. December wants you to pause and actually process the good, the hard, and the “WTF was that?” moments.
Maia says this quote is MLK but it may actually be Pittak Elk says:
“It’s the bumps that help you climb.”
Every bumpy moment this year was you leveling up.
New level, new devil — but also new power.
Tarot Card: The Sun… AGAIN
The Sun card popped up again this month, which means the universe is like:
“Did you get the message or do I need to say it again?”
Themes:
- creativity
- joy
- clarity
- wishes coming true
- stepping into your actual magic
If you shrugged it off last month… December is doubling down.
Rumi Moment
Rumi’s The Guest House is the vibe:
Let all the emotions in.
Even the uninvited ones.
They’re messengers, not punishments.
Flower of the Month: White Lily
Purity. Grace. Rebirth.
A soft reset for your whole system.
TL;DR December Energy
- Slow down enough to actually feel things
- Reflect without judging yourself
- Honor the bumps — they built your strength
- Creativity + joy = front and center
- Rebirth energy is loading
You’re ending 2025 wiser, louder, and way more you
