There is a new moon on January 12-13, 2021 and it encourages you to work for what you want in life.
The new moon is the start of a new lunar cycle, so now is the time to make plans and start new projects for the coming month.
During the new moon phase, the moon is exactly between the earth and the sun, so the illuminated side of the moon faces away from us.
How does the new moon in Capricorn affect your zodiac sign?
This positioning in astrological terms means a greater focus on our inner self and our desires, as represented by the moon, overshadowing our ego, represented by the sun in Capricorn.
We are urged to introspection when the moon is new to formulate new intentions to achieve new goals.
This new moon is in the sign of Capricorn.
Capricorn is a cardinal sign because it occurs at the beginning of its season and makes cardinal modalities promoters.
This is very appropriate for a new moon as we start new ventures and welcome new ideas.
Capricorn is also an Earth sign, meaning that this New Moon is invoking energies of structure, planning, material, and logic.
This new moon in Capricorn is all about making concrete, realistic plans for the goals you may be working on.
Right now, the new moon is aligned with Pluto, a planet that means regeneration and which is below the surface.
This alignment reinforces the notions of introspection and new beginnings that the placement of the moon in Capricorn is already evoking.
Read on for the horoscope of each zodiac sign to see how this new moon in Capricorn will affect you personally.
