NEW MOON in CAPRICORN
Dec 30, 2024 at 2:27 pm PT is a new Moon in Capricorn. Earth sign Capricorn rules the 10th house of career, finances, and the realistic practicalities of life. The new Moon and Sun are in Capricorn to focus on consistency and maintaining structure in your life during the tail of this dramatic Dragon year.
Pluto newly in Aquarius until 2043 indicates a large societal shift. Since 2008, Pluto was in Capricorn that concerned world finances, corporations, the rich and the poor, and the rise of plutocracies. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius were the years of the American Revolution, the French Revolution, and the Industrial Revolution. This time the revolution is AI innovation, and how technology will change the lives of all people.
This new Moon begins Fire Ox lunar month. Oxen are methodical, hardworking, and ethical. The element Fire adds strength and directness to steadily accomplish goals. The lunar year always ends with an Ox month to organize your home and workspace in preparation for the lunar New Year. Contact me for your astrology forecast for 2025 Wood Snake year.
