WINTER SOLSTICE

Winter Solstice

The Winter Solstice (Hibernal Solstice) takes place on Saturday, December 21, 2024, at 4:19 a.m. EST in the northern hemisphere. December 21 will have the least amount of daylight as the sun will be at its lowest arc in the sky for our area.

Shortly after December 21 daylight will start to increase, and our precious sunlight will return.

As nature sleeps and the light is low, we can use the long nights to reflect on our life’s journey. Go inward and plan your intentions for when the energy and the light return.

Mother nature knows best. Follow her example. Many animals are now hibernating or slowing down, resting and waiting for the return of light, for the return of warmth, the return of the energy that nurtures us mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Our current lesson could be patience. Utilize this time to look deep into the shadows of self. Bring light to the darkest corners of your being without judgement. Fill each corner with love and allow spirit to grow.

Is it coincidence that during Yule season (the rebirth of light), many celebrate the birth of Christ for example (the rebirth of salvation)? This is a time of celebration for many, whether it is Yule, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, Bodhi Day, Saturnalia, and the list goes on.

We have much to celebrate. Be filled with promise, with faith in all that is. Be filled with gratitude, with love and with inner healing light!

Blessings to all!

SUN IN CAPRICORN ASPECTS

We continue our post from December 16, 2024. If you missed our Sun in Capricorn article, here is a link for your convenience.  

Sun in Capricorn Aspects

The sun goes into Capricorn on December 21, 2024 and the following aspects will relate to those individuals that have their Sun in Capricorn at the corresponding degrees.  You can allow a 5–8° orb of influence. Within this range, the aspects will be in effect in your chart and will automatically strengthen as they near  the exact degree of your Capricorn Sun.  Review an ephemeris to get the exact degree and timing of the planets that we are about to speak about.

We will look at transiting Uranus and Saturn as they have a greater impact than any of the inner planets to this position.  The inner planets move too quickly to have any type of lasting influence, whereas the outer planets move much more slowly and will therefore have a longer and more lasting impact in your life.

Currently (December 2024) we see Uranus at 24° in the sign of Taurus and Saturn at 13° in the sign of Pisces.  Both contacts or aspects to Sun in Capricorn are considered positive in nature and carry with them the energies of easy flow, opportunities, change and stability.  Saturn and Uranus will be making a tight sextile to one another as well from March to September of 2025 becoming exact March and April of 2025 in and around 24/25°.  If your Sun is around these degrees (and taking into account the orb of influence), then this will be a prime time for needed change and then a stabilization period shortly thereafter.  You will likely have known that a change of direction was coming prior to this time frame.

From the time of this post (again December 2024), Saturn will move through the sign of Pisces entering Aries for the first time towards the end of May, 2025.  Saturn in Sextile to your Sun suggests that there may be some extra lessons that have to be undertaken with your spiritual connectedness and a stabilization period connected to these goals if this is part of your current assignment.  (The reason I use the term “assignment” is due to the fact that Saturn is known as the teacher and also the disciplinarian. Although it often indicates more duties and some testing along the way it also brings with it, using a steadfast approach, the opportunity to build a solid foundation to whatever you might be trying to implement into your life’s lesson).  This aspect is goal oriented and can also suggest changes to your path or changes coming from within.

During December 2024, Transiting Uranus will be at 24° Taurus moving into Gemini, which is a much more comfortable place for Uranus, in July 2025.  It moves back into Taurus in November 2025, and then will finally stay in Gemini towards the end of April 2026.

Uranus is making a trine to your Sun if your sun is in the later degrees of Capricorn from about 20° onward.  The trine is indicative of easy flow, good opportunities, promising outcomes through change and reorientation.  This may be a time of looking at your life’s path and making changes because where you are no longer suits your current path forward.  Change can be difficult especially when we speak of Uranus in Taurus as Taurus likes things to remain the same but Uranus’ upcoming position in Gemini will likely foster in change in a much easier manner.  Much will depend on the areas of life affected (house positions involved) and the other aspects within your natal chart.  You can expect some disruption and perhaps some of these changes might take place with little notice especially if you have been putting off what needs to take place. 

Sun in Capricorn aspects include Saturn and Uranus and together they will create a push and pull situation where you will want things to remain steadfast and at the same time want change.  This can be difficult, but life will take you where you need to go. Make the move before life forces it on you. The outcome can enhance your life.

SUN IN CAPRICORN DECEMBER 21, 2024

Sun in Capricorn December 21, 2024

On December 21 the Sun moves from the Mutable Fire sign of Sagittarius into the Cardinal Earth sign of Capricorn.  Sagittarius is very much about exploration and as we move into Capricorn, we carry forward the need for exploration but we now move into the area of success and what that might mean. 

Cardinal signs are known for action and decisiveness and want to achieve what they set out to do.  They do this with perseverance, persistence and especially in the case of Capricorn with conviction.  Capricorn knows that the ladder of success is not always an easy one, but that with hard work and achievement-oriented goals, the only thing that holds us back is our inability to push forward or obstruction from others.

In many cases, the ladder of success has to do with material achievement but there are exceptions. Sometimes, this can be very personal and may entail something important and that perhaps requires dedication and yes, a lot of work. 

Saturn is Capricorn’s ruling planet, and it always insists on hard work and a diligent effort in order to achieve what we set out to do, but Saturn’s rewards are often sustainable and produce structures that can stand the test of time. Capricorn knows that the effort is worth the struggle if that is what is required.

Most Capricornians are steadfast and reliable and are usually placed over time in a position of authority as they are good at enticing others into action.  They are leaders, and often not very good followers, unless those that are in positions above them can be viewed from a place of appreciation and with a degree of respect.  Capricorn’s themselves want respect and will work hard to make a name for themselves.

If by chance you find these characteristics do not fit, it would be important to look deeper into the chart and figure out why, especially if you are not goal oriented.  There can be many significators that can modify this energy, but most Capricorn people have some or many of these traits in common. 

Capricorn individuals are emotional but may have a hard time showing others this sensitive part of who they are.  They appear professional and do not like to show any type of perceived weakness.  They do not like criticism although if the criticism is valid, they will do what it takes to correct things.  Capricornians want to be viewed as diligent, and having the ability required to meet certain standards, they will work extra hard to prove this to others.  Some can be too restrictive and need to find ways to lighten up and enjoy life a little more.  Achievement, although the end result, does not have to be the only end in life.  Success is important but sometimes we learn more from our mistakes than from our achievements. 

Happy solar return to our diligent, motivated and reliable Capricornian followers starting Sun in Capricorn December 21, 2024.
