2022 Solstice and the Capricorn Super New Moon 21 to 23 December

Each time the Sun enters a Cardinal sign it opens a new doorway into The Medicine Wheel. In the Northern Hemisphere as the Sun enters Capricorn (21 Dec at 4.48 pm EST) it is Winter Solstice, the returning of the Light, and the North Direction of our Medicine Wheel. It is the time of stillness, inner reflection, and translating knowledge into wisdom. Our Guardian for the North is White Buffalo, prosperity and peace and honouring all life as sacred. We are in the North Direction until Spring Equinox on 20 Mar 2023.

In the Southern Hemisphere this is your Summer Solstice and The South Direction of your Medicine Wheel. It is the place of experiencing growth and expansion and trusting your inner wisdom to choose wisely as you grow. Your Guardian is Coyote, flexibility and adaptability. He is The Trickster who reminds us not to take ourselves so seriously and learn to laugh as we encounter challenges. Laughter is sacred medicine. He guides you until your Autumn Equinox on 20/21 March 2023.  

On this Solstice Day, for all of us, the Moon (our Soul’s Wisdom) is in Sagittarius asking us to remember what our spiritual vision for our lives really is.  She is guided by Jupiter at 00 degrees Aries 07 new inspired beginnings and early this morning they were trine each other (removal of obstacles). Jupiter was in Aries from May 10 to Oct 28 activating that new inspiration but he retrograded back into Pisces asking us to heal, forgive, complete, and release whatever blocks us until Dec 20 when he re-entered Aries. Look back to what you were focused on May to Oct. You may find what inspired you then is no longer what you want. Perhaps it is time for a new dream. Jupiter will be in Aries until 16 May 2023 when he enters Taurus. Tonight, Dec 21 at 7.50 pm EST the Sun in Capricorn (security) will Square Jupiter in Aries (freedom) reminding us to find new ways of doing things. Between 8.48 pm to 9.50 pm EST the Moon will oppose Mar Rx in Gemini and then Trine Chiron in Aries (healing duality caused by old wounds and uniting in Love). Because this is the Solstice energy it will influence us until the Equinox in March.  

The Capricorn Super New Moon at 01 degree 32 is on Dec 23 at 5.17 am EST and carries the same message. The Moon will square Jupiter at 3.13 am and Chiron moves forward at 4.31 am EST (healing and uniting in Love). The Sun/Moon are travelling with Hygeia at 01-degree Capricorn 24. She is the Goddess of Health and Healing. They are opposite the Earth at 01-degree Cancer 32 (healing the Earth). Super Moons activate strong emotions. Let us all make sure we are coming together for healing. This New Moon Squares the Dwarf Planet Ceres, the Universal Nurturer. Squares are always motivation for change. The New Moon is guided by Saturn at 21 Aquarius 35 (cosmic consciousness) who is guided by Uranus Rx at 15 degrees Taurus 20 (breaking through to what is of true value and releasing what is not).

I have always believed Capricorn is our Soul Purpose Path and Cancer stepping onto the Mystical Path. Capricorn is guided by the Animal Totem Snow Goose, following your hopes, dreams, and spiritual vision. Cancer is guided by Flicker Woodpecker who guides us through transition with all healing love. They are reversed for the southern Hemisphere. The Clan Mother who guides Capricorn is Talks With Relations. She is the Mother of the Planetary Family and teaches us we have kinship with all life forms. She teaches us to enter the sacred space of others with honour and respect. For Cancer we are guided by Loves All Things. She is the Mother of Unconditional Love. She teaches us to forgive ourselves and others. You can find more of their stories in The 13 Original Clan Mother by Jamie Sams.

Whatever you are celebrating at this time of year we send you love and blessings,

Namaste Dale
