New Moons are auspicious monthly celestial events that usher in fresh cycles of creation and becoming. And when the New Moon is in the sign of Capricorn, what may become initiated is our understanding of how we manage our lives and how we relate with our personal sense of productivity.
Read MoreToday and tomorrow we have a powerful triple conjunction of the Sun, Venus and Pluto, that’s supported by expansive Jupiter. The Sun radiates and reflects the star that we are; Venus seduces and reflects what we value and feminine expression; Pluto connects us to power and the wealth of uncovering that which resides below the surface.

Read MoreWhen the Sun is in Capricorn (December 21 - January 19), we're inspired to be productive and efficient.

Read MoreNew Moons are auspicious monthly celestial events that usher in fresh cycles of creation. This Sagittarius New Moon marks an auspicious time to undertake a new project that can help us forge a greater understanding of the world around us.
