Hello, and happy humpday! We hope your week has been going smoothly. Today marks a full moon in the sign of Capricorn, so the energy should be high right about now!
Astrological Energy Shift: Full moon in Capricorn - July 13, 2022
The moon was previously in the sign of Sagitarrius. It takes on an adventurous air here, always learning, always seeking. This fire sign is nothing if not spontaneous, so you may have found that there was a lot of moving and shaking going on while it was in the sign of the go get ‘em archer.
Once the moon has moved into Capricorn (as of 11:38am Pacific), things will become much more stoic and serious. The sea goat works hard to achieve goals, and will let nothing stand in the way of success. You may find the energy of the full moon here to be a bit hard to navigate, as the moon is in detriment in the sign of Capricorn. This means that its energy is weakened, since it’s in the sign opposite its rulership (Cancer). So, emotions may be hard to process at this time.
It’s not all bad, though! It’s worth mentioning that a positive trait of moon in Capricorn is stability. It brings some much-needed, no-nonsense, grounded energy into our lives. If there’s anything you’ve been procrastinating on, [[firstname]], this is the time to get it done. You will likely be laser-focused on the task at hand, and won’t mind carrying more than your load if necessary. If you’re in a position of leadership, this energy will serve you well.
Maximize This Energy
In some tarot circles, the moon in Capricorn is congruent with the energy of “The Priestess in The Devil’s clothing.” This is because the Priestess yields a bit of a masculine vibe, bringing aggression, assertiveness, and action to the table. And why the Devil? Many people associate Capricorn with The Devil card because both represent aspects of the material world. We’re more likely to be interested in money, finances, and the all the tangible things that we work hard for. And, contrary to popular belief, this is a good thing! It’s important to treasure our treasures (without getting too obsessive or posessive, of course).
Go Deeper
Take some time to make a list of all of the tasks and responsibilities that have been building up over the past month. You have a great and powerful window of opportunity to get things done between now and Friday. Just make sure that you’re not taking on too much and getting burnt out before you can finish everything. You may also feel vulnerable if you ask for help at this time, but that’s okay. Know that you don’t have to go it alone, and that assistance is much appreciated.
