The new moon arrives in the effective and ambitious sign of Capricorn, bringing clarity to help us make good decisions. The overall awareness favors a more practical and grounded approach. The mood is serious and disciplined, which is ideal for planning, staying focused, and achieving goals.
Capricorn time of year has us focused on the practical matters in our lives, including how we handle our professional work as well as our family responsibilities. Relationships formed under this sign are often based on business or other achievement goals. Capricorn connections include those that value success and future security, which may be more prevalent on our hearts and minds these days.
The moon in Capricorn connects with the Sun to bring us renewed energy and enthusiasm for having what we wish to attain now.
This new energy can enhance your clarity and momentum toward realizing your dreams. Set clear priorities for the year ahead. Focus on whatever brings you true fulfillment, especially those goals that promote your highest values and ideals.
Capricorn reminds us to maintain an attitude of responsibility, dedication, and stamina. Symbolized by the MOUNTAIN GOAT, it stands for one who will climb the highest peaks and quietly rise above others. Remember as you direct greater focus to your goals, you are also increasing your likelihood of success AND your ability to attain greater things . . . but sometimes you may really have to push yourself hard, especially right before you reach the summit you are aspiring to.
“If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes.”
Andrew Carnegie
This month is an ideal time for implementing smart strategies. Start by taking inventory of all that is going on in your life. Remember that your time is your life, so prioritize your calendar to reflect what you most value.

Remember that handling your responsibilities with emotional maturity, courage, and grace is the core component in successfully attaining what you seek. This period is ideal for sensible and methodical approaches to reach lasting success and true fulfillment.
The CAPRICORN new moon can enhance our efforts toward self improvement. This time of year is known for renewing our interest in personal development as well as professional goals. Think about honing your skills and strategies for effective time management as well.
“Some people dream of success, while other people get up every morning and make it happen.”

Heads Up: The New Blessings and Cosmic Challenges Ahead
The intuitive moon joins the consciously aware sun in Capricorn to set our attention on wisely managing our affairs. Management, control, and coordinating tasks are starred.
But first, this moon forms a favorable trine to change maker Uranus, to help inspire us to use our creativity and intuition effectively. Stay open, grounded, and aware, so that you may find masterful breakthroughs and happy surprises coming to you more easily now.
There is also a challenging square between the moon and wounding asteroid Chiron. While Chiron can bring hurt, ultimately it is also a source of healing. Because of the provocative nature of this aspect, though, we will do best by staying mindful of our emotions, as well as the feelings of other people, without getting distracted by them. The best advice during this period is to chose discernment (and tried and true approaches) over impulsivity when dealing with health matters.
Meanwhile, the intellectual planet Mercury will be moving out of practical Capricorn and into radical Aquarius. Mercury in Aquarius encourages innovation, invention, and other new ways of thinking. Enjoy this mental stimulation before the next Mercury Retrograde begins (1/14 – 2/3), which may cause disruptions in transportation or technology and also errors in communications.
“Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day-in and day-out.”
Robert Collier
New moons are ideal times for envisioning, planning, and initiating whatever we want to create in our lives. Answering timely questions is a great way to enhance and expand your current awareness. For even more clarity and inspiration, record your responses. Writing activates a deeper part of your consciousness. The best practice is to keep a journal, which will also give you something to look back on over time and can reveal even more wisdom and insight about all that you aspire to be.
