The New Moon in Capricorn on January 18 opens a new lunar cycle that leads us into two of the most profound changes of the year. For this reason, this New Moon may at first feel like a closing of a chapter rather than a new beginning.
This ending energy comes from both Saturn and Neptune, which are in the last degrees of Pisces and are preparing to enter Aries. Neptune will enter Aries on January 26th, and Saturn will follow on February 13th.

These cosmic changes will bring new collective energies for us to work with, activating different facets of our karmic journeys. They will shake the fabric of our lives and open new portals of discovery.
The fact that these two great planetary transitions occur under this lunar cycle in Capricorn gives us the opportunity to use the New Moon to go within.
New Moon in Capricorn: Our Cosmic Checkpoint
New Moons are always powerful times for setting intentions, but with this closing energy present in the sky, we may not yet know what we want to plant. Instead, we can focus on what we want to eliminate, root out, and what kind of foundation we want to build.
Under the influence of the New Moon in Capricorn, it is important to check in with ourselves. What area of your life do you feel needs restructuring? Think about the big, big picture goals you want to create.
Although manifestation often calls for clarity and detail, this New Moon invites us to observe rather than plan. We don’t need to have all the answers; it is enough to be curious, ask questions, explore and reflect on the new possibilities and experiences we would like to try.
New Moon in Capricorn: say what you have to say, express yourself boldly
Mercury, the planet of communication, is also activated by the New Moon in January, giving us the confidence to express ourselves and clarify what’s on our hearts. Perhaps we have accumulated ideas, resentments, thoughts or emotions without knowing how to express them. Maybe we didn’t know how to relate to a situation or how to handle it.

This New Moon will act as a clarifier, helping us understand what we really feel. It supports us to go within and sit with whatever arises so we can understand how to approach what comes next.
Capricorn has a practical energy, anchored in reality, that helps us separate emotions from facts and see the essence of situations without embellishment or avoiding the truth.
We can harness this energy by keeping communication clear, direct, and aligned with personal integrity. How can we take responsibility for what we say and speak honestly, both for the truth and for our inner good?
However, Capricorn energy can be harsh at times, so it’s important to be careful how we talk to others and ourselves. Notice where you are being too hard on yourself.
