New moon in Capricorn 2022—what does it mean?
New moons deliver new beginnings and act as a cosmic seed planting, where we put pen to paper and begin to form a plan for what’s to come. Perhaps it's time to pull some tarot cards, meditate, and manifest bliss.
Capricorn’s energy lends that extra encouragement and reminder to think big and think deeply about what we’d truly like to leave behind in 2021 and what we’re OK bringing forward with us in 2022. No dream is too big or too small, as long as you put in the work.
This specific lunation will be having a harmonizing conversation with Uranus in Taurus. Uranus is the planet of sudden events, innovation, rebellion, and change. Since Capricorn and Taurus are both earth signs, the combination of this energy will be more supportive rather than shocking or disruptive. This is the perfect 'think outside the box' energy.
If you want different results, you’ll need to change something. You won’t achieve what you want with your current plan of action, it’s time to get creative.
Ah-hah and breakthrough moments can appear seemingly out of nowhere under this new moon. It’s also important to take a look at the ruler of the moon in Capricorn, which is Saturn.
Right now, Saturn in Aquarius is forming a tense aspect with Uranus in Taurus. These two planets are at odds and are stubbornly and fiercely charging after separate agendas.
Saturn prefers to keep the status quo as is and Uranus begs to differ and is adamant that change be implemented. So, while the overall energy of this moon is potent for setting goals and bringing those dreams about in the tangible world, it may also feel like you’re literally fighting an uphill battle.
Don’t lose sight of your long-term vision—it’s your perseverance, adaptability and ability to innovate that this lunation will reward you for, a continued effort working toward all of your wildest dreams. Let’s see how the new moon in Capricorn will affect your astrology birth chart.
