Oh man, I absolutely love Capricorn season. In my natal chart I have zero earth energy, like zippo, and well, it shows. So when the earth signs roll around it is so blaringly obvious to my energy body because 75% of the year I'm floating around like a plastic bag in the wind. Enter Capricorn season, though, and suddenly I have game. Suddenly, I'm a boss. Suddenly, I have energy to not only dream up new goals, but plan, work, produce, and promote myself in order to attain them. There is a reason we set our new years resolutions or goals in Capricorn season and that is because this is the energy! We feel it and burns in us that something is ending and something new must begin. We want more for ourselves and the ones we love.
Capricorn is another highly misunderstood energy in the zodiac. Capricorn has the reputation of being overly ambitious and perhaps a little cold and focused on the self. Maybe they can come across this way, but I know this to be untrue because, in fact, in shamanic astrology Capricorn is an energy of service. Capricorn is perhaps not the best at expressing their heart or motivations for things and you know what? That is ok because expressing themselves isn't necessarily the life path of Capricorn! So what is their life path? If one were to get to the heart of Cap and understand what drives them, we would understand that ultimately, they are working for spiritual evolution and in service of the ones they love. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the father energy of the zodiac, and traditionally, what do fathers do? They meet our material needs by providing money, teaching us work ethic, structure, rules, and discipline. This is how they show their love and devotion to the family. Just as Capricorn's opposite sign of Cancer, the mother energy of the zodiac, shows her devotion by caring for the home, children, and nurturing the belly and emotional life of the family. Neither of these roles is better or more important, and I personally believe this is one of the places our society has gone wrong. We are devaluing the natural roles we play, over-emphasizing the importance of the masculine and stripping away the power that lies within the divine feminine and/or the mother. But that's a blog for another time....

Capricorn naturally rules our 10th house, which is the part of our chart that has to do with status, achievements, and legacy. How do you wish to be remembered? We mustn't forget that Capricorn plays off the 4th house and creates its goals because of the family, because of its roots, and with its loved ones in mind. It's for the ones we love that we wish to succeed, to provide, and/or to become "somebody" and there is absolutely nothing wrong with this if, like everything else in our human lives, we keep our priorities straight and stay balanced. Anybody with prominent Capricorn or 10th house energy has come into this life with a strong will to achieve their goals, to prove something, and i believe, to "upgrade" or shift the trajectory of their family in some way.

Capricorn New Moon Solar Eclipse

We are in a super powerful portal of energy this week, trust me when I say anything can happen! We just had the winter solstice which is symbolizes our shift from darkness to light. We have entered winter, but we have seen our darkest day, and are officially on our way up again, very much like the goat of Capricorn, climbing the mountain to meet the sun. On Wednesday December 25, Christmas day no less, we will have a very special Capricorn New Moon at 4° Capricorn, which happens to be a solar eclipse! That's right, we have entered eclipse season again. But get this, this new moon is also conjunct Jupiter and trine to retrograde Uranus in Taurus. What does that mean? Powerful new beginnings infused with luck, expansion, and surprises! Where does 4°of Capricorn land in your chart? Is your birthday in the next few days? Do you have planets at or around 4° Capricorn? This is a very auspicious area of life for you in the coming 2 weeks and year ahead. Next year is a major year for everyone, but the time is now to plant seeds for your year to come and NOT wait for the new year! If you visualize and goal set now you will watch your vision come to pass in 2020. In 2 weeks we have some majorly powerful astrology of culmination, as well, but I will talk about in a separate post. For now, i highly recommend you think big, but think realistically, think about the good of your family and the ones you love, and make sure you can SEE it in your mind's eye. Write it down and then get to work, even if it is just a symbolic start with pen to paper. Do it now and it will be blessed by the cosmos.

Tips for the Capricorn New Moon Solar Eclipse:

*Goal set

*Visualize! Visualize! Visualize!

*Believe in yourself (I know that sounds like a cat poster)

*Get to work

I hope you have found this information helpful and I wish you all a most magical New Moon in Capricorn and a very blessed and crystal clear path in 2020! 🌙♑🌙
