Capricorn New Moon

Today's New Moon took place at 6:57am EST in the 21st degree of Capricorn, the Cardinal Earth sign. This is indeed the time of year to increase our efforts toward reaching the goals we set for ourselves. Determination, hard work and perseverance are the keywords here. Roll up your sleeves and do whatever it takes, not overlooking any necessary steps to your success.

It isn't the time for wishing and hoping or daydreaming. Capricorn energy is about taking care of business and acknowledging our responsibilities. It's one thing to know what we need to do and another to do it. Taking efforts to achieve your goals could mean letting go of something that hinders you or stands in your way. This needs to be done with consideration of the people in your life who will be affected.

Saturn, Capricorn's ruler, is in Pisces and interacting harmoniously with Jupiter in Taurus. These two planets don't always work well together, but they are at this New Moon, and when they come together like this, opportunities are arising! Pisces is the adaptable, caring water sign and Taurus is Fixed Earth; these are compatible elements needed to make things grow.

Your efforts now can pay off handsomely down the road. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and don't let fear or doubt about not being good enough stand in the way of allowing your dreams to come true. This isn't about immediate gains or rewards. It's about building a firm foundation on which to stand while creating the life you want. That's what success is!
