Omen Days: The 12-Day Ritual That Helps You Plan the Year Without Burning Out
from Energy + Hours · host Jill Wright, Time Management Expert
What if you didn’t have to force your plans for the year, and instead learned how to read the energy before you decide?In this episode of Energy + Hours, Jill Wright introduces Omen Days, a Celtic tradition observed during the 12 days after Christmas (December 26–January 6), where each day represents a month of the coming year. Rather than rigid goal-setting or hustle-based planning, Omen Days invite you to observe patterns, symbols, dreams, and intuitive nudges to help you understand the energetic themes of the year ahead.Jill shares how she’s using Omen Days alongside numerology and the Wheel of Wisdom (from Melissa Seaman) to create an Energetic Year Map for 2026, and how you can use this same approach to decide when to rest, when to push, and when to make aligned decisions — without burnout.This episode is perfect for intuitive planners, neurodivergent thinkers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and anyone craving a softer, smarter way to work with time.⏳ Episode Breakdown & Timestamps00:00 – Why this episode is landing right now Jill shares why releasing this on Christmas feels intentional — and why rest is part of the work.00:43 – What are Omen Days?
