Sacred Structure, Soulful Ambition, and Building What Lasts

Capricorn is the master builder of the zodiac. Ruled by Saturn, the planet of time, responsibility, and integrity, this New Moon asks us to step into maturity—not as limitation, but as devotion. What you choose to begin now is meant to endure.
The Energy of Capricorn

Capricorn governs our goals, long-term plans, boundaries, and sense of purpose. It teaches us that true success is not rushed—it is earned through patience, discipline, and alignment with our values.
This New Moon invites reflection around questions such as:
What am I truly committed to this year?
Where am I ready to take responsibility for my life path?
What structures need to be built—or rebuilt—to support my growth?
Capricorn energy reminds us that ambition can be sacred when it is rooted in integrity.
Long-term vision and goal setting
Personal responsibility and self-mastery
Creating structure, routines, and boundaries
Career, purpose, and legacy
Grounded manifestation
Releasing unrealistic expectations
Honoring time, patience, and steady progress
This is an ideal New Moon for practical intention-setting—especially for goals connected to work, finances, health routines, and personal discipline.

Day by day.
With wisdom guiding your hands.
