CAPRICORN/CAPRICORN RISING Excerpt: "Once you have identified the root cause of why you associate yourself with parties that are not satisfying you emotionally or spiritually, you can start to develop strategies to address it...." ♈ ♉ ♊ ♋ ♌ ♍ ♎ ♏ ♐ ♑ ♒ ♓ New Moon Message & Intention for Members Below: art: Peter Mohrbacher The New Moon in Aquarius is a time for introspection and self-reflection, particularly in terms of your values and approach to financial stability. The alignment of this lunar phase with Venus and Saturn in Aquarius highlights the connection between your sense of self-worth and your ability to take risks in handling your finances and possessions. During this period, you may struggle with the pressure to exercise more caution and conservatism when managing your funds. This frustration can hold you back from making investments and spending money, and may limit your opportunities for financial growth. However, this New Moon provides an opportunity for you to take a closer look at these tendencies to spend and consume recklessly and to make changes to overcome them. As a Capricorn, you may find that your values and priorities are constantly shifting and evolving. One thing that you may find to be a constant value in your life is the importance of your friendships and the common goals of your community. However, when it comes to financial matters during this period of massive economic shifts, you may need help to ensure any predictability and stability in your approach. This may be due to a natural tendency to take risks, both financially and in terms of your health, by consuming fast and junk food that can be detrimental to your physical well-being. At this New Moon, take time to repose and focus on self-care. To stop consuming junk, it's perhaps important to first understand the reasons why you may be drawn to it. Are you eating junk food as a way to cope with stress or emotions? Are you eating it because it's convenient and easily accessible? Once you have identified the root cause of your junk food consumption, you can start to develop strategies to address it. One approach is to plan your meals in advance and have healthy options readily available. This can be as simple as keeping a stash of fruits and vegetables in the fridge or having a healthy meal prepped and ready to go in the freezer. You can also find healthier alternatives to your favourite junk foods, such as baking sweet potatoes instead of eating French fries, or making your own popcorn instead of eating packaged chips. Similarly, in a world filled with economic uncertainty and ever-changing fortunes, there are several steps you can take to help mitigate taking financial risks and make more informed investment decisions. Firstly, it's essential that you clearly understand your financial goals and risk tolerance. You must only spend in areas where you can afford to lose. This approach will help you determine the types of investments most appropriate for you and help you set realistic expectations for the potential returns on your investments. It's essential to have a well-diversified investment portfolio, investing in various assets, such as stocks, bonds, and real estate, rather than putting all your eggs in one basket. Taking an innovative approach can spread risk and reduce the impact of any potential losses. Do your research and stay informed about the markets and the different types of investments available to you by reading financial news and staying up-to-date with the latest economic trends. Aquarius has to do with science and technology, as well as shares and group dividends, so these things may be of interest. Be sure to seek out the advice of a financial professional, someone who can help you create a personalised investment strategy tailored to your specific needs and goals and can also provide valuable guidance and support as you navigate the ever-changing investment landscape. Under the Venus/Saturn conjunction, such a relationship may prove to be your best investment at this time. Stop associating yourself with groups that are not good for you, reflecting on why you're drawn to these groups in the first place. Are you seeking validation, acceptance or friendship? Are you feeling lonely or disconnected from others? Once you have identified the root cause of why you associate yourself with parties that are not satisfying you emotionally or spiritually, you can start to develop strategies to address it. Focus on building relationships with people who share your values and who will support your personal growth. It's also important to surround yourself with people who will hold you accountable and encourage you to make positive changes in your life. This can be a friend, family member or therapist or coach who can help you set goals, provide guidance, and offer support. One approach is to set boundaries and be more selective about the groups you choose to spend time with. This can mean saying no to invitations to hang out with certain people or choosing to spend your time with people who align with your values and goals. You can also seek out new groups or communities that align with your interests and passions. This can be as simple as joining a hobby or interest group, a sports team, or a volunteer organisation. Additionally, you can work on building and strengthening your existing relationships, rather than constantly seeking out new ones. This can mean putting more effort into maintaining regular contact with friends and family and scheduling regular check-ins or meet-ups. It's also important to focus on building a support system of people who are positive, supportive and uplifting rather than those who bring you down. Remember that you have the power to choose who you spend your time with, what to consume and how to invest your resources, observing that the quality of your choices is just as important as the quantity. The New Moon in Aquarius is an opportunity for you to reassess your values and approach to financial stability, as well as your relationships with others. It's a chance for you to make positive changes and take control of your life, so take this opportunity to make the most of it. NEW MOON INTENTION: I will take adequate time to reflect on what is of value to me today and how this impacts my approach to financial stability.
