There are portals that open to show you something.
And there are portals that close to lock it in.

The 12.12 portal was never meant to be dramatic.
It was precise.

It asked you to stop leaking energy.
To stop explaining.
To stop negotiating your worth.

It quietly recalibrated your value.

Now, as we approach the New Moon on December 20–21, something important happens: what you name becomes what continues.

This is not superstition. It’s timing.

The New Moon in Sagittarius closes the 12.12 portal by turning awareness into trajectory. Sagittarius is not reflective—it is declarative. It moves life forward through truth, direction, and language.

And that’s why the power of words matters more now than intention, visualization, or effort. This is the moment where you don’t “manifest” the future—you step into it with prayers.

Below are 7 ways to close this portal correctly so the upgrades you made don’t fade… but become the foundation of your next chapter.

Words spoken during this New Moon act like coordinates.

Saying “I’m trying,” “maybe,” “I hope,” or “someday” keeps your energy tethered to the past version that needed permission.

Sagittarius energy does not respond to hesitation. It responds to the claim.

Try this:
Replace future-leaning language with present placement.

Not: “I will be confident.”
But: “I move with confidence now.”

This isn’t affirmation.
It’s positioning.

As the portal closes, the universe stops listening to explanations.

It listens to decisions.

The New Moon amplifies what is stated cleanly, not what is justified emotionally.

If you keep explaining why something is hard, you keep it alive.
If you state what is true, the system adjusts.

Try this:
One sentence. No background.

Then stop talking. Accept it mentally.

During this window, your words either open the road or stall it.

Certain phrases keep doors open. Others quietly close them.

Use:
• I am
• I choose
• I allow
• I move
• I receive
• This is aligned

Release:
• Maybe
• I wish
• One day
• If only
• It’s too hard

This is not positive thinking.
It’s energetic navigation.

Future-you is not imaginary but a trajectory.

The New Moon is the moment you speak to them, not about them.

Try this (one minute only):
Stand or sit upright. Place a hand on your chest.

Say out loud:

That’s it. No ritual theatre. No emotion required.

Sagittarius responds to clarity, not drama.

One of the most common ways people sabotage portal closures is by adding doubt after clarity arrives.

The thought:

This is not intuition.
It’s the old self trying to stay relevant.

During Dec 20–21, second-guessing dilutes momentum.

Try this:
When clarity arrives, don’t debate it.
Anchor it with language.

Then redirect your attention.

This New Moon is not about outcomes.

It’s about orientation.

Sagittarius locks direction first. Results follow over time.

If you demand proof immediately, you pull yourself back into control mode—and out of alignment.

Try this:
Ask one question only:

Not how.
Not when.
Just where.

Portals don’t close with endings.
They close with continuations.

On the evening of Dec 20 or morning of Dec 21, speak this aloud:

Then move on with your day. No ceremony needed.
The field registers the shift.

This is not just a New Moon.

It’s the final directional lock of 2025—a year that stripped illusions, tested boundaries, and forced emotional honesty.

What you speak now doesn’t echo for a week.
It sets the tone for the next 9-year cycle.

Sagittarius doesn’t circle back. It moves forward.

And so do you.

You don’t need to do more.
You don’t need to feel different.

You need to speak from where you are standing now—not where you came from.

That is how portals close cleanly.
That is how futures begin.

With clarity and steady fire,

P.S. Most people will feel relief when the portal closes. Some will feel direction. Pay attention to which one you experience—it tells you exactly who you’re becoming.
