MoonWatch Astrology|New Moon, December 27, 2008 Episode
The moon is new in the sign of Capricorn, the sea goat. As the cardinal sign representing the element of Earth, Capricorn presides over the midheaven, the angle at the top of the chart that describes our relationship to authority figures and power structures. Most fundamentally, Capricorn and its companion planet Saturn, govern the essential structuring of the material world, up to and including the structure of our bodies, our skeletons, crystals and rocks, and even the passing of time. Such governance carries with it the capacity for mastery through discipline, and ultimately the paradox that through limitation we achieve wholeness. In astrological metaphor, the new moon is a time of concentration, when the lights of the sun and the moon seem to lose their autonomy and instead fuse the forces of creative will and emotional instinct together.
