On Friday, December 11, 2015 at 5:29am EST, enters a New Moon! This moon spiritually is connected to Capricorn.
This New Moon is a lover!!! Keep in mind that this year although Winter Solstice is on Tuesday, December 22nd, the shortest day of the year will occur before that date. Times are changing and the veil separating the spirit world and us, is slowing dropping. Why the energy of things in life and dates are no longer matching as it was easily predicted in the past. This year, yet again, the New Moon falls under the energy of the Festival of Lights, Hanukkah. How fun!
The Sun is in Sagittarius until December 21st, Venus is in Scorpio until December 30th, Mercury is in Capricorn until January 1st, 2016, Mars is in Libra until January 3rd, 2016, Jupiter is in Virgo until September 9th, 2016, Saturn is in Sagittarius until December 20th, 2017 and Uranus is in Aries until May 15th, 2018.
Such an exciting New Moon and month ahead!!! Let's get right to it!!! 

A New Moon means something new is born and the perfect time to plant new seeds. This is the perfect time to come up with new ideas, make new wishes, create new desires and set your intentions. 
On the New Moon you have the opportunity to draw energy and power from all of the month's positive aspects as well as protecting yourself from it's negative ones. 

ENERGY:
This New Moon major theme is about two words: FREE YOURSELF. 
Let's go over the positive and negative traits of Capricorn so you can see for yourself where you have opportunities to receive power from and which traits to protect yourself from. 
Capricorns are ruled by planet Saturn, and it's one of the planets furthest from the sun, which makes Capricorn the sign that most nurtures delusions. This month is about being realistic, mature and truly being honest with yourself about what it is your soul truly desires versus what you think your mind wants. This is about you being honest in understanding that what you want in life may not be what your soul needs at this particular time. 
What you want and desire you can always have and receive but it's truly about what your soul really needs in order for you to fulfill your life purpose. That should be your goal. 

Capricorns are very practical, disciplined, ambitious, very determined to meet their goals, career oriented, family oriented, grounded, reserved and not so talkative which is why they come across as heavy and slow in their demeanor. Capricorns can be very responsible and always feel like they have to work hard. They usually don't respect people that do not work to reach their goals. Capricorns also like to be responsible for their own lives but somehow do not take responsibility for some of their actions, that's where they can be a bit delusional. Caps can be very resentful, they can hold onto a grudge and be very rigid. Because they are very old fashioned and reserved they are sometimes not very social. 

The month of Capricorn is a spiritual one, so your spirituality will be put to test. Certain obstacles or situations you may come across with this month are all for your highest good. This gift of opportunity to transform yourself this month is a blessing not a curse! If you find yourself being angry, transform that energy, ask yourself why are you truly angry. The only person you are hurting with all that anger is yourself. Enough with blaming others for your reactions. Take responsibility and mean it. Other people are not to blame, they are messengers showing you what you need to work on yourself. See and listen to that message. 

This energy that is pouring in with the New Moon in Capricorn is all about preparing yourself for a new beginning. 
In order to do so, you must start with yourself. This is about letting it all go! Let go of the past traumas, past hurts, past betrayals, past ex, past frustration, past everything! Leave it all behind you. Forgive yourself and others. This is the perfect time to do so. This energy pouring is letting you know to free yourself from all of it and take back control of your life. This month ask yourself what it is you want, and get to work right away. Use the power of Capricorn to be disciplined and determined to work hard and meet your goals. This month you have the power to achieve it all! 

LOVE:
If you are single and ready to mingle, get ready! Some of you single starseeds will find your sweetie, but be open to receive this new love interest. Don't' hold on to the past and let this new love fly right past you. Some of you single ones will be too focused on yourself and career and will not be interested in romance at this time. And that's okay but make sure not to be inside too much. It's the holiday season, you need to be ready to mingle! Go out there and network! 
Those of you in relationships, will feel a nice shift in your partner, you will notice the two of you are closer than ever! Your sweetie pie will surprise you with a new attitude they have acquired. Some of you will notice your partner drifting away and that's okay, listen and see the signs of the universe. If this relationship has been holding on to a thread for a while now, perhaps you must let go and be prepared to start over. Perhaps you are settling?! Others towards the end of the month near the Full Moon will be taking your relationship to the next level!!! Yes, maybe moving in, getting engaged or even married! YAY! That's what love is all about, giving and receiving love :)

CAREER/FINANCE:
Some of you at the beginning of December started off being worried financially, but once you take control of your thoughts to positive ones, you will see how everything will fall right into your lap! But remember you must take control of your life by freeing yourself of any excess baggage you have holding you down: grudges, guilt, negative thinking, people, etc..Make positive moves this month towards your dreams, and you will see it all manifest! Although this month Jupiter is around and money will flow in for most of you, still try not to overspend although its hard during the holidays but not all gifts have to involve money. Be creative if you are on a budget. Your love, light and time are also a gift. 
Career wise, most of you will be soaring high this month so get ready to work hard and reap the rewards by the Full Moon! It will be amazing!!! Some of you will be shifting careers or at least making up your mind about doing so. 
You will want that transformation in your life and you will want it quick but hang in there, all in due time. As long as you plant that seed of new desire, all is good in the hood! 
No matter what position your are in life at this moment, with this New Moon entering, this is the perfect time to plant your seeds of what you want and go for it! Work hard for it this month, you will be so happy you did. 

No need for a health section as there is only one universal message for health: Heal your body and mind by going VEGAN! It will help the climate change by 100%, just sayin!!! Not being bias or anything :) 

There you have it my loved ones! This is an incredible New Moon!!! Get ready for fun parties, mingling and whether you are into the holidays or not, this holiday season it will be hard to be a grinch because lots of love going around! 
Remember that this month you have a huge opportunity to transform and free yourself. Sometimes what you think is a dark place in your life, it's not, it's an illusion. The light is always there. It can't be turned off. The light is always concealed in any challenge, you just have to see it :) 

Don't worry so much about spending this holiday season and realize that it's about spending time with loved ones and sharing your light. It's about gratitude. Take time this holiday season to volunteer and donate to a charitable organization. Instead of buying a puppy or kitten, adopt one. Make sure you understand that it's a lifetime commitment. They are fur kids! 
Volunteer feeding the homeless at your local shelter. Believe me it's one of my favorite things to do besides rescuing animals! It feeds your soul! 
I wish you all universal love. It doesn't matter where you are from, what culture or religion, we are all one soul on this journey. It should only be about one word: LOVE. Love one another, refuse to feed into negativity and fear. Instead inject LOVE into your consciousness.  

With that being said, I LOVE YOU ALL! Happy Holidays!!! Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah!!! YAY!!! 
My Kwanzaa peeps, I got you on the Full Moon blog! But Happy Kwanzaa anyway!!! We are all one universal love and holiday! Be grateful for everything you are and have in this life time. 

Namaste Witches!

On Sunday, December 21, 2014 at 6:03pm EST the Sun will enter Capricorn and at that same time the Winter Solstice will occur. And then the New Moon in Capricorn will follow at 8:35pm EST. There will be 5 planets in Capricorn on this day: Sun, Moon, Pluto, Mercury and Venus. On top of that since December 12th until December 21st there has been a Gateway of Astral Transition opened leaving us to experience an Ascension process. Hanukkah also began on the evening of December 16th and will continue until the evening of the 24th leading us right into Christmas and straight onto Kwanzaa from December 26th thru January 1st! I mean can you believe this?! Between the Ascension energy causing awakenings and truth being exposed to miracles from Winter Solstice, Hanukkah and Christmas to having 5 planets going into Capricorn ready to rock our world, this is all leading to the simple fact that it's time for REBIRTH!!!!!!! 
New beginnings are clearly ahead whether we like it or not! So let's begin with this amazing break down of what's in store the next two weeks! It's time to dig deep in our souls, expose our garbage and manifest miracles!!! 

New Moon means something new is born, or the time to plant new seeds. It's a time where you want to act on pure instincts but keep in mind you may not have all the information revealed to you until the Full Moon. So that's why the New Moon is a risky time to start a new business or relationship because you are still not dealing with a full deck of cards. It is the perfect time however, to come up with new ideas, make new wishes and set your intentions. 
The New Moon is when the Moon and the Sun align in the same zodiac sign. 

Most of you probably felt strange starting in the past week beginning on December 12th all the way thru December 21st. And of course give and take a few days before and a few days after. 
The Gateway of Astral Transition is a portal available for you to download so much information that will allow your ascension period to occur beginning with a transformation in your life and some even experience some flares. 
Flares consist of your body and light body going through physical and/or emotional aches and pains that can bring up old issues or current issues that need to be dealt with. If you recently started your spiritual journey or still have issues you refuse to see or transform, you most likely experienced some flares this past week. For those that have been exposing and correcting their garbage, you most likely felt a blissful 5D experience! But keep in mind these flares are actually upgrading you and you are being downloaded with tons of insights and new information for your journey. Either way it's a positive thing!
This Gateway gives you an opportunity to create a shift in your life. Insights were probably already being downloaded for the past few weeks. Things that were unknown and unclear before are now being known and crystal clear. 
This is due to the parts in your brain that are actually being activated so you can evolve into what really is and not what we thought things were. You could have been stuck in a situation for years, but now you are able to see things in a whole new light.
A lot of the ascension symptoms include tingles and goosebumps throughout your body, vibrations being felt throughout your hands and legs or entire body. Some experience extreme headaches, loud ear ringing, memory loss, nausea, dizziness, extreme sensitivity, change in sleep patterns, or feeling different for reasons that you can't explain. 
And some simply experienced happiness, blissful state and manifestations. 
This is an exciting time because it means you are ascending into a higher state of consciousness, getting deeper into your spirituality and going into a higher frequency - like 3D straight to 5D!
This is an opportunity to create major transformation in your life. A time for you to dig deep and realize what you have to correct about yourself in order to truly ascend into your higher state of consciousness. Start getting in tuned and aligned with your light body. 

This New Moon is coming in at a perfect timing with all the energies that are available to you. The New Moon in Capricorn awakens your sense to have a rebirth in your life. A new beginning. This will awaken your ambitions, sense of restrictions and the need to have organization in your environment. 
This New Moon in Capricorn offers you the strength to recognize your responsibilities and the need to want to create change. This is the time to build a new life that includes being realistic and mature about what it is that your soul truly desires versus what your fantasy mind wants. You will feel the urge to want to use common sense, start preparing for the future and start being more disciplined about your goals and desires. 
It's important that you allow this energy to work through you and with you, instead of you refusing and not allowing nature to take its course, because then the Universe will have to pull the rug under your feet. And that's never pretty!
Capricorns can be a little bit too serious at times so remember no matter what you decide to do, always add love, compassion and joy to your life. 
The timing is so exciting for this New Moon in Capricorn for the simple fact that you are under the miracle energy of the Festival of Lights and Christmas. So use the energy available at your disposal to harvest and plant your best seeds! Meaning set your intentions for 2015 today!
 
The New Moon in Capricorn will also bring you hope and possibility, even if you were in Grinch mode and put off your holiday shopping, it will be easier to get "into the groove" (thanks Madonna) this week. You may even finally be in the holiday spirit around December 28th! Make sure you have all the information you need before embarking on a series of visits or travels. 
Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius: You're feeling generous towards others, but make sure your giving really is without expectation. 
Gemini, Virgo and Pisces: This is a creative period for you, but it's also a time when you will feel overburdened or guilty (in a vague way). Give yourself a break and don't feel you need to "fill in the blanks" if there are silent moments in conversation. 

As you can see my darlings, there is a lot going on leading to 2015! 
Remember to not place pressure on buying gifts but rather concentrate on the giving part of the holiday. Sometimes it's about giving your time, love and light by volunteering at a soup kitchen, homeless shelter or even donating money and time to a animal rescue that you know is struggling or any charity organization of your choice. 
So take this time to prepare yourself to mentally state what you want to accomplish in 2015 and start mapping out items for your vision board. I highly recommend to take time on New Year's Day to create a vision board with pictures and words of all the things you want to manifest in the year 2015. 
Today start off by writing down your intentions along with the date and time by hand. Make sure to write 10 wishes down within eight hours following the exact time of the New Moon. 
Trust yourself and the Universe to know that whatever you write down WILL manifest if it's for your highest good! 
Get ready to manifest all your dreams and desires this holiday season! 

Tammie thank you for helping me with the 5 planets and exact times for this article! You're the best astrologer and sister ever! 

Love, blessings and gratitude to you all! Happy Holidays!!!
