January New Moon in Capricorn
Happy New Year!
Thanks to our Capricorn New Moon on January 13th, we should all be feeling a strong pull towards soul growth and evolution. However, alongside our New Moon are plenty of other planetary happenings creating frustrations, inhibition, tension, and sudden change all of which are giving us great opportunities for development. In short, we are going through a period of change, adaption, and everything around us is shifting – while this can be scary it isn’t always a bad thing, especially when we stop to consider the things we are leaving behind.
A new moon represents the end of one cycle and the beginning of another new 28-day cycle. Sun conjunct Moon gives an invigorating burst of energy and initiative. So, this is an excellent time for making a fresh start, turning over a new leaf, or starting a new project. You can also question old habits, behaviors, and beliefs as you search for new and inventive ways to make progress.
Capricorn is grounded in the Root Chakra; this fresh lunar start is inviting us to find our strong and steady footing (perhaps for what’s to come?). The complexities of Capricorn are ruled in the joints, spine, bones, tendons, and ligaments – essentially acting as the base to our body. It is in the root where we feel most connected to the earth, to source, and/or the Universe.

This Capricorn New Moon is here to increase your personal power and ability to influence the outcomes in your life. However, you may also be feeling an increased intensity and probing nature which will often lead to power struggles. Now is the time to gain insight into your destructive behaviors, obsessions, and addictions. The tarot card that represents Capricorn is The Devil - who represents our shadow self. Throughout this lunar cycle, you can expect complex dynamics to become clearer to you. This new moon aspect favors transformations and soul evolution. Initially, this will involve withdrawing and taking a good look at the situation. The re-birthing process will lead to greater self-esteem.
“I am strong!”
