December's New Moon in Capricorn Inspires You To Be Bold

The last new moon of 2022 arrives on December 23, resting in pragmatic Capricorn.

Rising in the night sky, the celestial planet is fueled by the earth sign's goal-driven and determined energy, inspiring you to get your life together before the end of the year as new moons symbolize a fresh start and the beginning of a new chapter. Positioned in an ambitious sign, this Friday's lunar phase gives you the cosmic push to look at the endless opportunities the new year will bring.

Capricorns are famous self-starters, so create a ritual that'll allow you to take advantage of the blank canvas the universe is offering you. Represented by a goat, the tenth sign in the zodiac understands the wisdom of taking the time to map out a well-executed plan rather than rushing just to achieve momentary and short-term success. Take a cue from Capricorns and harness the spirit of the new moon to envision what you'd like to accomplish in 2023.

Libra

The new moon lights a fire in your fourth house of domesticity, reminding you to take stock of your environment. The beginning of the moon's cycle is the perfect time to declutter your home and set your space up for success. While your four walls might be top of mind, don't neglect your internal world as well.

Scorpio

Your third house of communication comes into focus for December's new moon, shifting your attention to not only how you speak to others, but how you speak to yourself as well.

Aquarius

This month's new moon lies in your twelfth house of spirituality, urging you to utilize your intuition to guide your path over the next few weeks. As the zodiac's idealist, you tend to have your head in the clouds, but if you can embody Capricorn's sensibility when envisioning your dreams for 2023, you'll be well on your way.

Pisces

Networking should be top of mind as the new moon is in your eleventh house. Your social calendar may be full as the holidays are approaching, so making the effort to create meaningful connections and rising above your standard dinner small talk will help you build a strong, uplifting community to support you.
