New Moons symbolize beginnings and on January 16th, we have one of the most powerful New Moons of the year happening in earthy Capricorn. It's lunation-packed with heavy yet extremely fertile energy.
Think of New Moons as opportunities to plant new seeds in your life. Whatever you decide to plant in the fertile darkness will eventually take root.
However, since we're dealing with the energies of Capricorn and some watery Scorpio, there are some rules involved.
One: Choose something that inspires passion and you're willing to commit to
Two: Know that it will take your focus and effort to see it materialize. This isn't the kind of seed you can plant and just walk away from. It requires your attentive follow up.
Three: Whatever you're growing will take time and it will likely challenge you, so don't throw in the towel just yet!
