Capricorn season highlights a passing of time. Because the Gregorian calendar begins again and we celebrate the new year during this season, our focus likely lingers on what has been accomplished in the past 12 months and what it is we look forward to for the next. Saturn (the planet ruling Capricorn) was known by the ancients as Father Time, and in this fashion we can seek to organize our ambitions with the time we have, and the skills we posses. Reflection is a skill and privilege to those of us whom are safe enough to hold it, and in this Cardinal sign of Capricorn, there is much valuable energy in this type of dreaming...

CAPRICORN MUSINGS

🌤️

Our spirit is always moving us towards our highest expression. Clear away the noise, the mind chatter and the "shoulds" to remember what brings you the most satisfaction. In the Northern Hemisphere, we are in the dark of winter, and thus a time to sit quietly in the sanctuary of our inner world. There is no pressure to do it all at this moment, we can only take one step at a time while realizing our dreams. "The only way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time". Trust your gut and practice patience in the pursuit of success.

The archetypal Saturn loves when we accomplish something that builds character and stability in our lives.

 Mini Astrology Session for Capricorn + Saturn

+ Capricorn in your chart will bring a sense of authority, and responsibility. Find out what planets are in Capricorn to incur its influence on your personality. 

Saturn is Father Time and the influence of struggle and challenge leading to more power and stability. It takes Saturn 29 1/2 years to make a revolution around the sun. If we are lucky we will live to see 3 Saturn Returns in our lifetime, the first brining a sobering end to Childhood frivolity. When we meet the influence of Saturn on or around our 29th birthday we are called to make some choices on who we think we are and how we will lead a life in honor of that.  

Expect difficulty and prepare for set backs, so that when you meet the challenge you can be more prepared to be flexible and committed to the work that it takes to create great things. 
Hang in there, we are in it for the long haul, and we are in it for LOVE
