CAPRICORN NEW MOON HOROSCOPES
The Capricorn New Moon is on the way..
Officially January 11th at 3:57am Pacific at 20º Capricorn.
I'm switching it up and doing NEW MOON HOROSCOPES this year. I was born on a new moon, so maybe I'll have the astral wherewithal to bear witness for you. Perhaps you are also feeling the murmurs of wanting to *switch things up* - the first three new moons of the year are in aspect to Uranus, the planet of innovation. Uranus awakens us to what no longer can be repressed, a level of authenticity that must be conveyed no matter how unpopular. I hope this year, that whatever lights you up is made into a reality, that you follow your own version of success. This moon is a good moment to arrange this liberating plan - and maybe a plan B and C, as more and more will be asked of our creativity as the year unfolds, because...
2024 is a threshold.
It will set the stage for a bizarre amount of change, as all the generation-defining outer planets will be switching signs in 2025-2026.
After 16 years in Capricorn, Pluto pursues a different tone when it enters Aquarius this month, Jan 20th. For the next 20 years, we'll be questioning deep-reaching humanitarian topics and riding uncanny edges of science and technology. To add to it, next year: Uranus enters Gemini, Neptune enters Aries, and Saturn soon follows. We are transitioning into a whole new affect. My hope is that the ambiance will prioritize community care, that the pulse of imperialism is weakened and we learn to integrate these turning points in life-giving ways together. In personal events, this year holds potential for major breakthroughs and pivots, the dynamic in-between of old and new as you straddle many endings and beginnings. I encourage you to proceed with kindness as you sort out what's no longer important and pave the way for what your heart desires next.
This new moon is a moment to lock in a career goal, as the year ensues I invite you to convince your friends of it. Don’t let the mainsails and jibs land you on lonely islands - this year you will be tasked to find your crew - to make your mission more fun and effective by sharing coordinates with your community. It may go undetected at first, all the quality work that you forge - like a pirate ship emerging from the sea, everyone will gawk at the gold ornate mast and panel carvings - a stack of treasure chests on the upper deck. Don’t be shy to leave some folks on land or let enemies jump overboard, keep your eye on the horizon with those who understand where you’re pointing.
This moon is a moment to sort out your most intimate clients and friends - establishing any leftover IOU's or future collaborations. As the year ensues, I invite you to devote yourself to testing new ideas out with them. No need to know everything before putting it to use together, there is actually more wisdom in not knowing and your skills can grow on the job. The most powerful leaders are those willing to hone their magic in real time with their community - as you, more than anything, are a perpetual student willing to absorb it all. Shed the ego parts that are attached to perfection, show people that making magic is messy, show them how much you know by not knowing.
The moon is a moment to organize boundaries around your personal time and rituals, for as the year ensues, everyone is going to want a piece of you. You are beginning a whole new level of depth in relationships, whatever superficial gaps you’ve conveniently avoided in intimacy, needs more skin in the game. In both friendship and romance, you may strive to heal and cultivate more meaningful bonds. Striking a relational balance of depth and mutual freedom is an important part of this longer journey. Through others, you may also magnetize bigger career opportunities, which may help you expand your reach - every hand shake is liable to get under your skin and transform you in powerful ways.
The moon is a moment to move the furniture around in the house and make space for more creative output. As the year ensues, I invite you to sit across the table from others and show them what you've been making. Hit the taproot of your creative potential, open yourself up to a new level of self-expression. Start by creating routines that honor your childlike wonder. This may demand that you repair any ways the spirit of play has been restrained in the past and begin making more liberating decisions. Take the scenic route, stop making sense, bring playing cards to a first date, find your future playmates - learn ways to assert your imagination, let more people into your weird world.
This new moon is a moment to establish your values, as the year ensues I invite you to communicate them clearly to others. You’ve been walking the walk for awhile, now it's time to talk the talk. To find the words for the things you do. This is the year to hone your storytelling skills and learn how to express yourself more powerfully. Sometimes showing and not telling is ineffective. Sometimes building a bookshelf for your partner is not enough to make them feel loved. Sometimes we need to sing a Dolly Parton song, staring into their eyes while hammering each nail. Sometimes communication needs to be dramatic - and you have the capacity to hone this craft, to form language into a big message.
This new moon is a moment to make a secret wish, to organize your inner temple and the spiritual systems that keep it replenished. As the year ensues the wish will grow limbs, you will become colossal and these inner reserves will be put to the test. Barely fitting through the door of the ballroom - this year, it's time to take up space - this year, the world just finally may catch up to your ways, tuning into your post post post pop jazz. Dance in sharp jabs or circles or...your usual opposite of what everyone else is doing. Lean into your trendsetting powers, give us your genius wrath - push the collective into your personal grooves.
This new moon is a moment to organize all the knowledge that you've garnered and decide what gaps in your learning you'd like to fill next. As the year ensues, you may find that people are in need of your wisdom, that your services are on-demand. The line between onstage and offstage versions of yourself may also start to blur as you settle into a new levels of transparency. My advice is this: when the sun is out, give yourself full permission to project or radiate yourself into the world without double guessing. When the sun is down, reflect on how that went. Day by day - project then reflect until, compassionately you shake off the false self and the pace of your private - public life are in union.
This new moon asks for a relationship check-in, a moment to take inventory on mutual goals. As the year ensues, I invite you to move past cordial contracts and dare to go deeper into its healing qualities. It’s easy to organize a kit and caboodle of relationship tools, yet the more vulnerable you get with others…the more those personal items start to rattle out of their place. This is good, no need to keep the unconscious realm tidy, our attachment styles are malleable and new boundaries are standing by. Don't be shy to get messy with your blind spots, to hold eye contact with your bewitching hidden truth. The part of our lives that are most messy is the part that yearns to be integrated.
This moon is a moment to blow your mind with your creative output. As the year ensues, I invite you to work smarter, not harder - finding the technological streamlines and collaborators that help you get more bang out of your brilliance. Any ideas you get this year are worth running by your business partners, close friends or lovers - other minds can corral your ideas into a realistic framework. You may find - that old habits of working that are not good for your health start to crumble and demand a software update. What fills you with sacred fuel must be prioritized - when you lean into what fascinates you most, the world can't help but hunch over your shoulder, curious about what you're up to.
This new moon is a moment to be a person of your word - to make a vow, that you will stop at nothing to know yourself. As the year ensues, I invite you to drop the defenses that keep you from investigating yourself out loud. How might you explore your hopes and fears more honestly and playfully with others - to learn its rhythms through exciting dialog with friends, lovers or a good therapist. This is your era for ancestral healing, for shedding old psychic knots and deciding what new postures free up space for your well-being. You are becoming a great witness of your ways - learning how to feel without fixing - at least long enough for new impulses to be born.
This new moon is a moment to design your personal brand, decide you only wear green, cut bangs, commit to only writing in Comic Sans. As the year ensues, remember the deeper reasons behind this facade. This year might be the beginning of a long term value system re-haul, where you question deeper socialized cues you've taken around self-worth, money and success and learn what really matters to you in the end. You are ready to be making a living for a more authentic path...if you're not sure what that is yet, go back...all the way back...back to the basics, revive what little things lit you up as a kid. Re-learn some essential facts about yourself - so that you can make a paradigm shift from a place that values your true glory.
This new moon is a moment to establish your role in your community. As the year ensues, get clear on your yes's and no's. It can seem like the secret to getting somewhere and making progress is constant showing up and doing the hard work, when really progress is learning how to stop. When your able to stop, you can allow in whats really being felt in your moment to moment experience, which has important information for you. When someone asks you to do something this year, defer your immediate reaction and instead, stop and notice how you feel, and then....keep listening and noticing....and then, notice again - in this pause you will know how to proceed authentically.
