January 2024 Happy New Year! On January 11, 2024, a New Moon in Capricorn began a new cycle. This aspect signifies a fresh start in the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. During this time, we can channel the constructive traits of the character, such as tenacity, resourcefulness, discipline, wisdom, ambition, prudence, and constancy, and strive to integrate them positively into our lives. It's an excellent opportunity to focus on practical and achievable long‐ term goals, develop maturity and common sense, prepare for the future, make commitments, and realistically ac‐ knowledge our responsibilities. The Sagittarius New Moon cycle ends, and the Capricorn New Moon cycle be‐ gins, representing a time of new beginnings and growth. With the powerful energy of Capricorn, we have an excellent time to make some structure and organization into our lives. It's a good time to make concrete plans and prepare ourselves for the rewards that await us after our

new beginnings, no matter how big or small, about two weeks after the Full Moon. One important lesson that we can learn from Capricorn is that setting reasonable bound‐ aries and rules can give us more freedom ‐ freedom from worry and chaos. By setting goals for ourselves, we can focus on what truly matters and make progress in our lives. Trusting our intuition more can also help us develop a healthy relationship with change and create a feeling of progress in our lives. On Thursday, January 25, 2024, there will be a Full Wolf Moon. According to folklore, January’s full Moon is called the Wolf Moon because wolves were often heard howling at this time. While people used to think that wolves howled because they were hungry during winter, we now know that these vocalizations serve various pur‐ poses, such as defining territory, locating pack members, strengthening social bonds, and coordinating hunting. Use this time to set your intentions! Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) — Happy birth‐ day Capricorn! Plan how to use your creativity to have more fun. Romantic adventures sweep you up. Ensure you have everything you need; there is no telling where the night will lead. Romantic sparks fly under the most un‐ likely circumstances. You are qualified to do more than you think. Economic factors affect your personal life this week. Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) — You need to broaden your horizons. Reflect on your past activities. Re‐

member that we must revisit the past to deal with the present and the future. Financial pressures are being al‐ leviated. Love opportunities are out there. You need to project a positive image. This will help draw in new friend‐ ships that could turn romantic. Pisces (February 20 – March 20) — It's time for a new you. For quite a while, you have been out of touch with yourself. Alterations are vital. Your emotional agenda is clear, but lovers need to be clued in. They want to help, but they have to know what you need before they can provide it. Immerse yourself in your work and keep your mood up‐ beat. This way, you can come up with new ideas. Aries (March 21 – April 20) — Someone finds you sexy when you argue and get angry. Be sure not to let your feel‐ ings get the best of you. You control your destiny in busi‐ ness and on a personal level. You are feisty and could intimidate those who do not know you well. You meet some challenges at work with good problem‐solving ideas. This helps in providing solutions for any foreseeable dif‐ ficulties. Lead by doing. Taurus (April 21 – May 21) — Avoid being too quick to say yes or no. Be receptive to new possibilities. You can encounter excellent new relationships in the right place at the right time. Follow your instincts. Your skills will ac‐ complish what many cannot. Set a goal that is reasonably attainable at work. Gemini (May 22 – June 21) — Looking inward is the best thing you can do for a relationship this weekend. You get invited to a party. Even if your friend bows out at the last moment, attend the event. If you feel it's a chore to go out and meet people, it won't be until you get to the party. Don't be surprised if you are the last one to leave. Cancer (June 22 – July 22) — Make room for delays and unexpected changes and be open to new ideas. You may find yourself feeling frustrated at a current situa‐ tion. Make time for hobbies and exercise regimes. This will help you to relax and feel less stressed. As you stumble through challenges, specific emotional sup‐ ports may have disappeared. You are not alone. It would help if you learned to depend on yourself. Try a joint project at work, and you will be well appreciated and fi‐ nancially compensated for your efforts. Leo (July 23 – August 23) — Make room for delays and unexpected changes and be open to new ideas. You may find yourself feeling frustrated at a current situation. Make time for hobbies and exercise regimes. This will help you to relax and feel less stressed. As you stumble through challenges, specific emotional supports may have disappeared. Virgo (August 24 – September 22) — A change in your mental perspective brings on a positive series of events. Reverse the way you have been dealing with a problematic relationship. Listen to your intuition; you will know if someone interests you. You do not have to wait around to know. Work lets you share jokes and lighthearted fun. Libra (September 23 – October 22) — Your career is evolving into a more creative one, which is good, but you will soon find yourself on the front lines and in the public eye more than before. You are unstoppable this week. Scorpio (October 23 – November 21) — Personal matters weigh on your mind. Decisions, decisions. You feel like a kid in the candy store. Your ability to be calm, rational, and objective will help you to get through this period. When you think you have made your choice, an‐ other option comes in. Sometimes, laying back, watch‐ ing, and doing nothing is the best action. Sagittarius (November 22 – December 22) — Keep things light. You tend to work well under pressure. In terms of your career, avoid any on‐the‐job conflicts by turning the other cheek and biting your tongue until the end of the month, and you will be rewarded for your tol‐ erance.

Brain Waves... with Debra Rose

A Happy Medium The start of the new year is the per‐ fect time to contemplate happiness. Notoriously a season that is often held accountable for zapping joy, winter does not have to be the culprit for feeling unhappy. Our frame of mind is what deter‐ mines whether or not we are gloomy or happy as a clam (especially in Montauk). Research from neurologists (and Buddhism) tells us that humans can be hap‐ pier if we focus on the true reality of a situation, rather than projecting our own mental constructs on it. Our brain is more powerful than we realize, we just have to pay more attention to where we channel it. Have you thought about buying a specific car and suddenly that’s all you see on the road? Then you have experienced ‘frequency illusion,’ eloquently known as The Baader‐Meinhof phenomenon, where something you recently thought about seems

cherry floors add a richness throughout the gathering areas and, naturally, tile floors are found the in kitchen and baths. Some of the ceilings are cathedral with bead board finishing (kitchen, master) and there are four gas fireplaces (living, kitchen, primary BR and guest). There's an attached garage and a salt water pool which is surrounded on three sides by the U shape of the house and there are even ceiling fans along the finished soffits and a separate poolside powder room. To finish it off, there's a covered front porch, rear covered pool seating and dining area and central air conditioning. Close to all.

to be, everywhere. We can process information this way as well as our emo‐ tions. When you pay greater attention to things that have become significant to you, it will feel like that event is more common than it actually is. So how does this apply to cultivating happiness? We all experience set‐backs, stress and negative life events, and we can also create our own interventions to see our world in a different, more optimistic light. Examples of this are making an effort to find five things a day you were grateful for, noting even small events like the perfect latte you appreciated that morning. When this exercise becomes a habit, your brain starts to seek out moments of joy that you can recognize later, and soon you will be using the frequency illusion to your advantage. When you focus on what is going well in your life, you can see events with more clarity. If we pay more attention to what is positive we balance out our tendency to rehash the negative. Sometimes reframing an unpleasant event by ask‐ ing “what if this was the best thing that happened to me” ‐ can pause our habitual responses. The goal is to find the middle way, balance out a tendency paint an event with a negative brush and entertain the possibility that positive events are also part of the bigger picture. Try thinking of three things at the end of the day you were grate‐ ful for, and soon you may notice yourself doing the happy dance. The Montauk Sun ~ Winter 2024 ~ 35
