The diligent New Moon in Capricorn arrives on January 11, 2024, at 6:57 am EST. A stark contrast from our last lunation, this New Moon is not all about the cozy comfortable environment and nourishing feelings. Instead, there’s a notion of urgency and desire to work or build up your life, to get more serious about your desires, and become driven to allow them to manifest. There’s a heavy focus on the material and practical side of living. Perhaps you are becoming aware of what’s needed to sustain you emotionally and spiritually, and this can help you realize how your material world and practical routines support this dream or hinder it.
This is the lunation that’s perfectly in between eclipses. Whatever significant timeline shift or directional change you’ve experienced in the Fall from the previous eclipses may finally be turning a corner to finding a resolution. Even if not, there’s a certain level of acceptance occurring now. You aren’t in the same place you were before. Maybe you are finally recognizing and accepting what has changed. What is the new direction you wish to forge now, knowing this information? Where is there energy that's ready to expand out from you and grow into something beautiful, supportive, creative, and exciting?
Let’s look at where this New Moon astrology is happening for you specifically.
CAPRICORN & CAPRICORN RISING
It’s your season, Capricorn, and the New Moon in your sign invites a refresh and reframing of all your old beliefs, stories, and views you have about your life. Major parts of your world have shifted since the eclipses this Fall, all around your work, public roles, as well as the creativity and fun you have in between these spaces. Now that there's more stability with your outer obligations, this lunation calls you into introspection. What about yourself and your life is due for a change? Where do the personal boundaries need to be strengthened and fortified so you can create and build what you wish to manifest? This can be a pivotal movement for your personal development, as there’s a choice you can make around your overarching direction.
