January 1 | New Year’s Day (Gregorian Calendar)

As we welcome a new calendar year, this is a great time for celebration and reflection. Sit down with a cup of cacao and consider what gems you have mined from the previous year, and what visions you hold for the year ahead. 

 

Recommended Cacao: Feel into the expansive possibilities with a cup of Boundless Belize!

January 13 | Full Moon in Cancer 

Our first full moon of the Gregorian New Year offers us illumination into all that Cancer represents - home, security, mothering, nurturance, intuition, emotions, memories. Celebrate this full moon with a cacao ritual by creating a cozy nest for yourself to enjoy your cup and reflect on what makes you feel safe, nurtured, and taken care of. 

 

Recommended Cacao: Feel held by the nurturance of the highest vibrational flower, Rose, in Tantric Rose Blossom.

January 20 | MLK Day 

On this day, we honor the birth and celebrate the impact of the African American non-violent civil rights activist, Martin Luther King, Jr. It’s an excellent day to reflect on the challenging history of the Americas, present day inequities, and prioritizing building bridges of peace and equity. 

 

Recommended Cacao: Feel into the supportive energy of our ancestral wisdom and the power of community coming together, with Uplifting Uganda.

January 29 | New Moon in Aquarius 

This new moon invites us into reflection and visioning towards our impact in the world, especially in the ways of Aquarius - the humanitarian and revolutionary. On this new moon, create space to sit with cacao and consider your values, your community, and how you are living to effect the change you want to see in the world. 

 

Recommended Cacao: Empower your focus and drive to effect change with Thriving Tanzania!

January 31 | National Hot Chocolate Day 

Another yummy food day! We in the cacao family are pretty familiar with the story of how cacao has become chocolate, but for many people this is still new territory! What a perfect day to introduce chocolate lovers to the healthiest and most intentional version (and the origin!) of chocolate delicacies… a hot cup of ceremonial cacao. Head to our website for recipes to share.
