On Monday December 21, 2020, Winter arrives in the Northern Hemisphere, (some places more dramatically than others) but it’s the official start of Winter, “Winter Solstice”, the shortest day of the year. Always in tandem is the careful, capable Capricorn Sun.
This ambitious, efficient, and grounded Earth sign, ruled by stern Saturn, believes in duty, responsibility and loves being in charge. Regardless of our actual birth date, we may all feel the influences and get a thrill directing traffic and telling people what to do. (Fun for the boss, but maybe not so much for the employee?) Use honey instead of vinegar.
Although Capricorn is very different from Sagittarius, spirits don’t have to deflate after all of the seasonal happenings you were able to create the past few weeks – despite these precarious times. The 10th sign of the Zodiac can keep us busy, accomplished and sensible. Make a goals list, tune up job or financial situations and organize whatever needs to be shaped up. Be ready for whatever opportunities show up in 2021. “A change is gonna come.” What’s next? Make something happen.
There is one major planet transit for Capricorn:
~ Pluto, planet of power & transformation – has been in Capricorn since 2008 (until 2023) – fosters deep feelings, possible changes in career direction, upheaval, regeneration.
*How you experience this powerful planet placement depends on where it appears in your birth chart, – its traits will be intensified in that section of life. (And of course, a Capricorn Sun or Rising sign is especially energized.)
~ Capricorn Sun ~ December 21, 2020 – 5:02 AM EST / 2:02 AM PST ~
*Gemstone: Obsidian, Onyx *Power color: Black, Gray * Body Part: Bones
FYI: “The Winter Solstice occurs exactly when the Earth’s axial tilt is farthest away from the sun at its maximum of 23° 26′. Though the winter solstice lasts only a moment in time, the term is also a turning point to midwinter or the first day of winter…The seasonal significance of the winter solstice is in the reversal of the gradual lengthening of nights and shortening of days.” (per Wikipedia)
