Happy 2024, everyone! As we usher in the New Year and firm up our resolutions for the upcoming months, the planets align to cast the cosmic stage for our futures. Despite our meticulous planning (Virgo, I'm looking at you), it's crucial to acknowledge the inevitability of the unforeseen. And thus, it’s important that we take the uncontrollable with stride and course-correct as we go. In hopes of getting ahead of the cosmic curve and setting the tone for a happy, healthy, and productive New Year, keep reading and, as always, keep listening.
Capricorn
Happy birthday, Capricorn! This month is all about you, and the cosmos seem to agree. As Mercury turns direct in Sagittarius on the first, you'll be attuned to your alone-time habits, providing an opportunity to optimize moments of introversion and discover what truly makes you feel liberated. Incorporate this free-spirited mentality into your social interactions for a richer appreciation of your social life. The Capricorn New Moon on the 11th offers you a chance to set new goals for the year ahead. Whether you prioritize social endeavors or career achievements this month, the seeds you sow during this time have the potential to bloom well into the New Year. Finally, with the sun’s shift into dynamic Aquarius on the 20th, the upcoming season is the perfect time to embrace the unconventional. While every earth sign loves an objective plan, channeling your confidence into exploring what lies outside your clear-cut path may yield rather serendipitous results. With your drive and determination, the possibilities are limitless.
