The Last New Moon of 2022 Dares You To Dream Big for the Year Ahead
New moons generally represent the start of a new chapter. The new moon in Capricorn invites us to reflect on what we want to be remembered for—what’s the legacy you want to leave behind, and what are you working toward? Ruled by Saturn, Capricorn has a reputation for being hardworking and concerned with achievement. This is a powerful time to lay the foundation for a new career, project, or objective that you’d like to bring to life in the coming year.
We're feeling confident to pursue our purpose in a way that may have once felt out of our reach.
This is the perfect new moon for manifesting as the sun and moon, both in Capricorn, will mingle with Jupiter, a harbinger of good luck and a testament to our internal sense of faith within ourselves. We’re feeling confident to pursue our purpose in a way that may have once felt out of our reach. Tap into the earth-sign nature of Capricorn to stay grounded and root your expectations.
Cosmic spoiler alert: Mercury will go retrograde in the sign of Capricorn on December 29, which may bring some delays and a course correction to whatever seeds you plant. This period of revision isn’t meant to discourage you, but rather help you refine your next steps so you’re moving forward in a more stable and solid manner. Patience is key—you’re closer than you think!
Read on for your rising, sun, and moon signs for more insight on how this new moon will affect your zodiac sign and birth chart.
