Whether it’s making tough decisions, tying up loose ends, or setting the foundation for new ventures, the Capricorn moon is an excellent support. It aids in manifesting our goals with determination and clarity, ensuring that our efforts are not only ambitious but also aligned with our deeper purpose.
There’s also a strong call to celebrate milestones and possibly conclude chapters that have been demanding yet rewarding. This moon provides a unique opportunity to harness its reflective energy to focus on our careers or other areas where we hold authority or seek achievement. The Capricorn Moon is also about resilience; it teaches us that the challenges we face are often preparations for future successes.
