This is the first New Moon of the year and it is in Saturn-ruled earth sign Capricorn. The Sun, Moon, Venus, Pluto, Mercury and Saturn are all in Capricorn, poised and ready to assist us. All this grounded, solid, practical energy presents us with a clear intention to get real, take stock and get down to the business at hand.
This may be related to making changes we have knowingly put off.
By taking the initiative to view our lives from a broader perspective, we can more honestly assess what is working and what is not and act on that.
This creates space for new opportunities to unfold.
Saturn’s gift is a deeper understanding of the inherent stability of structure and form. Capricorn’s earth energy reminds us that deep roots nourish, persistence and patience can pay off and work well done is its own reward.
Time to set our New Moon intentions!
The Sun moves into Aquarius on January 19 and the upcoming Leo Lunar Eclipse Super Blue Moon is on January 31, 2018.
