Capricorn Season - Navigating the winter solstice while setting intentions for the new coming year
On December 21st the winter solstice takes place and Capricorn season begins. The Sun is going to remain in Capricorn until January 19th, offering us an invitation to focus on building with intention, take responsibility for our lives, and cultivate patience and resilience. The winter solstice is a sacred time of the year, which has been long celebrated by many cultures in ancient times. During this time,in the Northern Hemisphere we experience the shortest and darkest days of the year, which represent a turning point and a doorway for a new season of our lives.
Capricorn represents the last cardinal sign of the zodiac. When the sun moved from Sagittarius to Capricorn, we experienced a shift from expansion to introspection. Capricorn is represented by the sea-goat, which is able to climb the highest mountain and swim into the deepest oceans. A Cardinal, Yin, and Earth sign, Capricorn is connected to our drive to build something that lasts through time, create our legacy, and ground our dreams into reality. As the Sun travels through Capricorn, we have an opportunity to reassess our commitments, long-term visions, the structures we have built so far, and the structures we aspire to create. During Capricorn season, we are reminded that time is both a powerful teacher and we are encouraged to make sure we are investing our time in what truly matters to us and persevering through challenges and setbacks.
