This week, on January 11th, we are experiencing the first new moon of 2024 in the industrious sign of Capricorn! The tarot card representing this transit is the three of pentacles. If you have a New Years resolution or a positive change that you are ready to implement for 2024, this new moon presents an opportune astrology transit to do just that!
Capricorn is the planetary ruler of the 10th house in astrology. This is the house of ambition, career, finances, long term investments, our public persona, reputation, and our professional life. As an earth element, Capricorn is a grounded, stable energy that represents the tangible, real elements in our life that provide structure & stability.
Interestingly, the Three of Pentacles corresponds to Mars in Capricorn. Mars is in the sign of Capricorn during this transit. It is exalted in this sign (beneficial). So, for the next few weeks, this placement will fuel our “self-starter” mindset. We will be feeling energized and passionate about the future and excited about doing what it takes to achieve what it is we want to accomplish in the 10th house area of our life.
Three of Pentacles/New Moon Intuitive Messages:
Some of you may be in the limelight this week! Being appreciated and recognized for your contribution, skill or talents is often implicated with this card. You may receive a bonus, raise, job offer or some other opportunity for advancement. Others of you may have the opportunity to step out of your comfort zone and allow your work and/or ideas to be seen.
On the flip side, this card is a reminder for some of you to continue to be a “self-starter” as you may not be receiving external validation for your efforts, yet. Keep in mind, others may not understand your vision for success, or may be insecure about your talent, or the changes you are implementing. You may have to go against the grain initially, but over time, the results will speak for itself.
Keep going, keep growing!
