Dec 22 – Jan 19

Element
Earth
Ruler
Saturn

Bring excitement to your home by discussing long-term goals with anyone you cohabitate with, darling Capricorn. As the Aries Moon and Saturn unite, initiative and structure act as molecules for success. If you currently live alone, connect with a family member or your closest friend to spark mutual inspiration. Consider where untapped resources might be hiding while Pluto activates. Selling unwanted goods or reassessing your budget could make a significant impact on your bank account. You may feel restless or emotional later tonight when Luna and Jupiter square off. If you struggle to settle down, try indulging in simple comforts or self-care practices.
