In our post a few days ago we mentioned the spectacular meteor showers that will occur this year. And then in our post on our sister page, The Mystical Cat we also mentioned the recent Wold Super Moon. Well today we also recognise that what is happening in the night sky in January 2026 is purely magical ✨️

The below is taken from an alternate page 😉

🌕 January 3: Wolf Supermoon
The first Full Moon of 2026 is a massive Supermoon. It will appear up to 14% larger and 30% brighter than a micro-moon as it reaches its closest point to Earth.
👀 When and where: Visible globally. Look for it rising in the East just after sunset.

🌍 January 3: Earth at Perihelion
On this day, Earth reaches its maximum speed and closest distance to the Sun for the entire year—about 3 million miles closer than in July.
👀 When and where: This is a geometric event, not visible to the eye. Occurs at 15:15 GMT, but the Sun will look virtually the same size.

🌠 January 3-4: Quadrantids Meteor Shower
Usually one of the year's best showers, producing up to 120 meteors per hour. However, this year the bright light of the Supermoon will wash out fainter meteors.
👀 When and where: Best visibility is in the Northern Hemisphere in the early morning hours of January 4. Look toward the constellation Boötes (near the Big Dipper).

🌌 January 10: Jupiter at Opposition
The King of Planets is at its biggest and brightest for the year! Earth is passing directly between the Sun and Jupiter, making the giant planet fully illuminated.
👀 When and where: Visible all night long. It rises in the East at sunset, climbs highest around midnight, and sets in the West at sunrise.

🌑 January 18: New Moon
The first new moon of 2026: An opportunity to see faint celestial objects such as galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters.
👀 When and where: All night, worldwide

🌒 January 23: Moon Meets Saturn and Neptune
A beautiful celestial trio. The waxing crescent Moon hangs close to the ringed planet Saturn, with the distant ice giant Neptune hiding nearby.
👀 When and where: Look toward the Western horizon immediately after sunset. Saturn and the Moon are visible to the naked eye; you will need binoculars to spot Neptune.

We can only agree that this month is pretty magical!!

There are a number of celestial events happening in this new year of 2026 starting with the quantity of meteor showers....the first being on Sunday 4 January.

The Quadrantid meteor shower is one of the strongest meteor showers to illuminate this year's sky and will be active until 12 January, but peaks between 3 to 4 January 2026 in the UK.

The shooting stars are known for their bright fireball meteors which have a blue or yellow-white tinge with fine trails.

Fireballs are larger explosions of light and colour that can last longer than an average meteor streak.

The Quadrantids originate from the dust left behind by an asteroid called 2003 EH1 which orbits the Sun once every 5.5 years.

Meteor showers occur when this dust passes through Earth's atmosphere at speeds of up to 70km (43 miles) per second. The tiny particles - roughly the size of a grain of sand - vaporise creating visible streaks of light.

They are known for their active peak which can reach a rate of up to 110-120 meteors per hour, (known as the zenithal hourly rate) for a short, sharp period of just a few hours.

They are named after the former constellation Quadrans Muralis, where they originate from, which was discovered in 1795 by a French astronomer.

It was left off the list of recognised modern constellations by the International Astronomical Union in 1922 and is today considered part of the constellation of Boötes.

To find Boötes, follow the curved handle of the Plough until you reach Arcturus, a bright orange star at its base.

It'll be amazing to see and would love to see your pictures if you decide to watch it this weekend. Post your pictures under this comment ❤️‍🔥

We haven't posted for a while about what type of therapies Leap Holistic Therapies actually does. And given we had our first therapy session this year yesterday, and received some lovely feedback this morning, we thought we'd share their comments as well as just a little smidge of the type of thing we do.

Leap Holistic Therapies works in the therapy room within The Mystical Cat at Harts Barn Craft Centre. As its part of the shop, therapy sessions tend to take place outside of the shop opening hours so either before, after or even on a day we're closed, or if there isnt a person to run the shop during a session, we'll close the shop to ensure an individual gas our undivided attention.

So what do we do....? In short, we work with an individual's energy, helping to holistically repair your energy field. We work intuitively, and are guided to use various tools such as crystals whenever we are guided to do so. Its also totally hands off, exceot to place crystals on you if needed or when you fall asleep and we need to wake you up!

Obviously there is a little bit more to this and we're happy to answer questions if you have any.

We are available for sessions throughout 2025. Please contact us for further information here on FB or drop us an email.to hello@leapholistictherapies.com .

Namaste 🙏

We are now closed for a well earned break!

We wish all of our customers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We may pop in over the next week on odd occasions to tidy up and get ready for next year, however don't intend on re-opening until 2025! We'll share the official opening day when we have decided 🫣😂

That said if you have a desperate need for something that we sell, message us and we'll see what we can do to help. Otherwise see you on the other side!

Happy 7th business birthday to me 🎊

7 years of hard graft, learning new skills, ditching old ones, some great and some "never again" moments, accepting the tough times and the even tougher choices I needed to make, growing but ultimately here I am 7 years later still going strong. And running not just The Mystical Cat but also Leap HR Consultancy Services which still goes from strength to strength and whilst still more to do with this, my third arm, Leap Holistic Therapies , I definitely wouldn't change what I am doing.

Here's to another year 🥂

Finally created a page for our retail shop, The Mystical Cat.

🥰

Welcome to The Mystical Cat. Opened in August 2022 at Harts Barn Craft Centre in the gorgeous Forest of Dean, it is the retail side of Leap Holistic Therapies.

We stock all kinds of holistic loveliness from crystals of all shapes and sizes to incense, from dragons and witches to angels and unicorns, we stock things that we love and also will get things in that you may want.

We will be posting some of the things we have for sale on this page, as well as launching (fingers crossed) access to our online store where, regular shop items will be joined by goodies that we can't physically fit in our little store.

Our mantra is simple :-
- We have great UK based suppliers where items are ethically sourced;
- We try and get you what you want for the best price possible;
- We do our best to source that one holistic or mystical item that you cannot get ; and
- We will post anywhere - additional costs will apply.

The shop has been described as a calming little piece of heaven and wonderment - we hope you can visit yourself, and if not, we hope this page will show us sharing the love that we have.

We have finally created a page for our retail store, The Mystical Cat where we will show off our retail wares for sale at the shop but also can be purchased and posted to you wherever you are in the world (P&P extra). We are working hard to get an online shop running alongside the physical shop, giving you much, much more choice.

Please like and share our page 😍😍

Thank you
