Are we being honest with ourselves?
Inner Alchemy Reading and Intuitive Guidance for Jan 10-16, 2026. Entering the Gateway of Inner Truth.
Capricorn Season continues to teach us the importance of strengthening our foundation. We have been energetically stimulated under the pressure of stress, particularly a pressure to be healthy, for the past 18 days or so. This pressure system has encouraged us to listen to the wisdom of the body, as you intuitively know what is correct for you and what is not.
Looking back at the last few weeks you may recognize some of the teachings that we as a collective traveled through:
The Gateway of Joyous Vitality ( 58): Dec 25 – 30
Noticing how the body communicates its dissatisfaction when stepping out of your natural rhythm. Here we felt a pressure to make things better. When we try to convince ourselves that we should do something, buy more, be more, or we create an expectation around how something should play out – we feed into the lower vibration of dissatisfaction.
By releasing the mental program of “I should ...” and moving deeper into your body’s Inner Guidance of what you have the time, energy, and space for, you naturally increase your health and vitality, inviting more joy into your life.
Reflection Questions:
In looking back at the holidays did I fall into a pattern of giving too much or doing too much? If so, what did this cost me?
Did I create an expectation of what the holidays should be, or how another should feel? If so, what was at the root of my intention? What was I afraid of or trying to control?
What was my energy level communicating to me during the holidays?
What were the signs, symptoms, sensations I can now recognize as Inner Guidance communicating?
What am I most grateful for this holiday season?
The Gateway of Oppression / The Fighter (38): Dec 30 – Jan 5
Noticing how we create our own struggles by staying in our habitual patterns. There was a pressure to find purpose during this time, to fight for what truly matters, and to notice what are you fighting to hold onto that weighs you down rather than lifts you up?
In order to move towards a new beginning, it becomes a mindful practice to release what didn’t serve you in the past and only bring forward what does support your journey. In honest reflection we come into the realization that things cannot be resolved / released until they have been completed. The highest aspect of Honor keeps us accountable to resolve what is ours to resolve, and carry what is ours to carry.
Reflection Questions:
What pattern or habit am I aware of that keeps me in a state of struggle (for example: taking on too much, getting involved with what is not mine, doing the same things that distract me from my truth or prevent me from making progress towards what would bring more ease into my life?”
The Gateway of Ambition (54): Jan 5 -10
Here we experienced the pressure to rise up, but before taking action, knowing what you are aspiring towards and why is the difference between what causes us to rise or fall. Here we faced the shadow of greed and the parts of our ego that scream, “I want!” But why do we want that? What is it that you are truly seeking?
The gift of aspiration was pulling us towards our own ascension by asking you to first be aware of the path you are travelling on, and to feel the truth of “Is this the correct path for me?”
Reflection Questions:
What are you aspiring towards in 2026 and why?
How will you keep yourself motivated?
What can you do to check in with yourself on a regular basis to ensure you are still on the correct path?
What tends to steer you off track? How can you strengthen your foundation to prevent these temptations from taking root?
The Gateway of Inner Truth (61) Jan 10-16
The pressure now shifts for us from the root (stress) and into the crown (mental pressure). Sitting between our logical and analytical hemispheres of the mind, we are invited to walk the path of the Mystic and discover something new.
What else can we learn about our true nature? What belief system do we hold tight to that we are now ready to assess with deeper clarity? Where are we willing to look at our roles, responsibilities, triggers, and wounds, inviting in the Grace of Healing to support us in moving forward.
In the Gateway of Inner Truth, we come face to face with our Fear of Ignorance. An anxiety that we don’t know the answer. Can you relax your mind and body this week to allow for a new truth to surface?
The Teachings of the 1-11 Portal (Summarized by Google AI)
The spiritual meaning of "1-11" (or 111/11:11) generally signifies new beginnings, spiritual awakening, manifestation, and divine guidance, pointing to alignment with your higher self and the universe, urging focus on thoughts and intentions for positive change, often appearing as a wake-up call from angels or God for a turnaround or new path. It's a powerful number in numerology and prophecy, symbolizing intuition, leadership (from the '1's), and spiritual connection (from the '11').
Key Spiritual Themes for 1-11:
Manifestation & Thoughts: A sign that your thoughts are aligning with reality; focus on positive outcomes as they are manifesting quickly.
New Beginnings: A powerful portal for starting fresh, letting go, and stepping into a new phase of life or spiritual growth.
Divine Guidance: An angelic message to pay attention to your intuition, inner voice, or a specific spiritual message.
Spiritual Awakening: A call to become more aware of your spiritual journey, your purpose, and the "missing pieces" needed for your next step.
Reflection Question:
What new truth is being revealed to you at this time?
What area of your life are you being guided to work on?
What responsibility are you ready to claim?
What new awareness have you learned about the ways your intuition guides and communication to you?
