The Capricorn New Moon is exact at 21 degrees. The Moon in Capricorn is mature, reserved, disciplined, and dutiful. Here, the Moon feels nurtured by structure, working towards a goal, and fulfilling responsibilities. Focusing this fresh burst of energy on achieving professional ambitions and improving your public status is highly supported. Intentions set at this time have a high likelihood of lasting due to Capricorn’s emphasis on longevity.

Aspects made by the New Moon foretell the energy to come over the next two weeks. A trine to Uranus and a sextile to Neptune shows this New Moon is plugging into the Uranus-Neptune sextile which will be extremely active in 2025. For now, we get a preview. This combination of planetary energies blends progress and innovation with ideals and spirituality. You may experience a spiritual awakening or breakthrough and find you’re more attuned to your psychic senses. A greater interest in unorthodox spiritual practices such as astrology or tarot is common. This New Moon might also blend technology and spirituality together in new ways. Additionally there may be an attraction to unconventional groups or ideologies. There may be a strong drive for reform and a desire to help the oppressed. Anti-establishment attitudes and a distrust of authority are also more likely. The New Moon is also widely conjunct Pluto at the final degree of Capricorn. This is considered a karmic degree of completion. This imparts a degree of fate and completion to what you put in motion. This aspect offers intense energy for transformation, shedding old habits, and taking back your power, especially in the house where the New Moon falls. Of considerable importance is the square between the New Moon and the karmic Nodes. This indicates the over the next two week you will be at a turning point and must choose between your past and future. There will be a spotlight shone on where you are over-compromising (what you need to release) and where you need to be assertive and independent (what to move toward). Focus your energy on what’s growing rather than what’s dying.

The ruler of the Full Moon is Saturn (Capricorn rules Saturn). Saturn is sextile Jupiter and Mars showing the potential for taking well-timed action that leads to professional advancement or recognition. You should experience steady and continuous growth in relation to your goals.

Overall, sudden positive and exciting shifts to your sense of identity can lead to professional success or the achievement of a goal. However, you may feel uncertain about which direction is most true to yourself. Spirituality will also likely play an important role at this New Moon, especially the pursuit of new age or other nontraditional spiritual avenues. The desire for collective reform and shakeups will also be evident.

People most affected by this Full Moon are people with placements between 15-25 degrees of the cardinal signs (Aries, Libra, Cancer, Capricorn).
