The New Moon ☉☽♑︎ Capricorn arrives as a powerful threshold, closing chapters of old contracts, vows, and soul agreements carried across timelines and dimensions. This lunation is a potent portal of completion, where the lunar essence stirs deep nostalgia yet cautions against becoming lost in lunar sentimentality. This is not a time to cling to the past, but to honor what is ending so something rebelliously authentic may begin.

You may feel this New Moon ☉☽ strongly in your heart and bones as the vital life force and spiritual light of nature. Capricorn♑︎ ruled by Saturn ♄, reminds us that we are standing in the essence of completion. The quiet yet potent medicine of solitude whispers gently now, inviting reflection, boundaries, and inner authority.

As the first New Moon ☉☽ 2026, this lunation marks a sacred space for ritual, spell work, and intentional magic, all crafted to release the past and seed new energies for the year ahead. Collectively, we have been moving through profound grief as the global landscape has become increasingly unpredictable and challenging.

In this Capricornian ☉ season of realism, spiritual bypassing is no longer a responsible option. The world is collapsing under false dogmas and unsustainable power structures, and there are no shortcuts through this terrain.

This New Moon ☉☽ teaches unwavering resilience: to sit fully in your skin, feel your ancestral bones, and never underestimate your inner strength or your capacity to create love and magic in the world. Prayers rise under this moon for the dismantling of patriarchal systems rooted in control, domination, and rigid power plays.

With Pluto now in Aquarius (fixed air) we are witnessing the slow, often uncomfortable transformation of global social structures. History reminds us that true evolution is never easy, but it is necessary. Keep your focus clear, as energy follows intent. Embody the change you wish to see.

The physical body may hold tension during this lunation. Capricorn (cardinal earth) asks you to listen to the somatic messages within. Take time to be with yourself, honoring the wisdom of your body intelligence and consciousness. This is grounded, embodied spirituality.

The counsel of earthy Capricorn invites you to climb with purpose. The summit is earned, not rushed, and the gift is a panoramic view of the landscape below.

At this peak, the Star Elders gather as they ask…

“What are your dreams?

What visions are you willing to commit to building in the material world?”

Astrologically, this New Moon is dynamic, and the Sun and Moon are conjunct Mercury, Mars ☿♂ ♑︎ and the Arabic Part of Fortune, amplifying focus, drive, communication, and blessings. This potent alignment offers you the gift of creativity, prosperity, and sovereignty of your sacred purpose.

Venus ♀ in her Underworld journey is conjunct Pluto in Aquarius ♇ Aquarius (fixed air) with the asteroid Vesta (priestess consciousness) representing initiation & rebirth, with radical transformation through love, values, and resources. Both Venus, Vesta and Pluto offer deep alchemical evolution when aligned with individual truth through collective ritual acts of service.

A Capricorn stellium forms a strong earth trine to Uranus ♅℞ in Taurus (fixed earth) grounding innovation and awakening into practical steps. The message is clear: choose wisely, move steadily, and trust the path unfolding one step at a time.

Under this New Moon in Capricorn, release what has haunted you as you now rest in the dreaming glade of old souls and treasured bones.

Be bold.

Believe in your dreams.

Ask yourself, “How may I best serve the greater collective?”

☽ May your words be blessed & the magic strong ☾

Much love from the deep wild woods
