This isn't just another moon cycle. It's a soul-level dialogue initiated by Jupiter, the ruler of this lunation, stationed in the deep, reflective sign of Cancer. Over the coming weeks, a series of powerful resets in Capricorn will oppose this Jupiter, asking us to examine the very architecture of our emotional attachments. Where are we being called to stand firm, and where are we being asked to soften? How does our drive for independence coexist with our human need for connection and care?

The heart of this cycle may feel like an age-old tension: the part of us that says "I've got this" wrestling with the part that knows it's okay to ask for help. Through this celestial mirror, we're invited to explore the stories of our ancestors, the whispers of the feminine and the priestess way of knowing, and to discover how true discipline, over time, can mature into heartfelt devotion.

This month asks us to consider a fundamental alchemy of the soul: that secure footing does not come from denying our need for others, nor from losing ourselves within them. It is found in the courageous space where emotional vulnerability meets unwavering inner strength. Here, we learn that the most productive thing we can sometimes do is to rest by the healing waters, and the most caring act can be to walk the disciplined path. Maturity is not the absence of need, but the wisdom to hold both our autonomy and our interdependence with equal reverence.

Hey everyone. This is Adam Elenbaas from Nightlight Astrology [https://nightlightastrology.com/].
Today we are going to take a look at this weekend's upcoming new moon in the sign of Sagittarius. I'm going to give you some thoughts about the cycle ahead given the opening signature of this new moon. We're going to take a look at some of the secret rulership dynamics, or the dignities behind the new moon. I always think that's a good idea, especially in a case like this, where we have a lot of planets all getting together in the sign of Sagittarius at the time of the new moon, that makes Jupiter the ruler of the new moon.
And there's actually a lot happening as the cycle unfolds between a lot of planets in the sign of Capricorn and Jupiter in the sign of cancer. So that becomes central to the lunation and understanding it. We're going to unpack all of that today. Give you a sense of what this next moon cycle has in store for us. I hope that this will be useful as always, but before we get into it, remember to like and subscribe.
We've done research, and it has shown us that a lot of people watch that are not yet subscribed. So if that's you, take a second to click the subscribe button.

If you frequently find yourself going, I'm learning new astrology here that's intentional. I try to bake into everything.
I create some educational content and curriculums. It's like you're learning while you're here, about astrology in addition to getting your forecast two do you find this a place of spiritual inspiration or companionship and community? Do the stories, the jokes, the little anecdotes I tell about being a dad, all of this stuff is really curated on my part to make it feel like a warm experience where you're receiving your astrology in a way that feels really personal.
So if you identify with that you like this channel because of it, please consider supporting us. $5 donation. $10 donation. Also, someone mentioned recently, the pledges don't come out until January 1. You can pledge now. Your card isn't charged until the Kickstarter is over the first second of January, right about that time is when they actually charge the cards for the pledge that you make. So thank you so much. And let's now turn our attention to the real time clock.
So here we go. We're sitting here in the middle of the week and a couple of reminders. One is on Friday. I'm doing a live stream. In that live stream, we're going to be covering Venus's square to Saturn, which is a, often a very powerful transit within relationship dynamics. We're going to talk a lot about that and do some horoscopes in a Q and A Friday morning.
That's 10am Central time, 11am Eastern so you can catch me live at that time, talking about Venus, Saturn. Earlier this week, we talked about the sun Saturn. Tomorrow, we're going to talk about the sun Neptune, because sun will be moving through a square to Neptune today. What I want to do is jump ahead a little bit and talk about this weekend's New Moon.
There's a lot to cover in this, like kind of little Sagittarius lineup that we have, and the new moon will be coming through Friday evening. So it was kind of a choice for me. Do we talk about the new moon Friday? Do we talk about Venus Saturn? I think Venus Saturn is probably where most people's heads and hearts will be at. But the New Moon is also a big event happening this weekend, so we're going to cover it today.
Press. Up you for it give you some sense of what the cycle ahead entails, given the big signatures. Now, if you watch my channel a lot, you know that we're not just going to talk about Sagittarius. That would be like one level deep. What we really want to do when analyzing a New Moon is talk about the signature at the time of the new moon in the larger context of what's happening in the sky through exploration of dignities and so on and so forth.
Well, here is the simplest way of talking about what this new moon is all about. First of all, it is a New Moon in Sagittarius, which is Jupiter ruled. Now, one thing you can do that I recommend everyone do for every new moon is simply look at the house that the new moon lands in the whole sign house of your birth chart, the topics of that house will be the seeding point of the cycle ahead, which means you can track the cycle in terms of its starting point in this house, everything about the cycle ahead will be taking place in some ways, starting from the seeds in the whole sign house of Sagittarius.
So given that there's been so much activity in this house, the squares between this house and the whole sign house of Pisces in your chart would be worth reconnecting with right now, in fact, at the beginning of the month, given the major amount of squares happening between these two houses. Our horoscopes for December were really just an exploration of the multiple squares across sag and Pisces.
So here we are again with the New Moon in Sagittarius really calling our attention to that whole sign house of Sagittarius. Now in addition to this, we have Mercury Venus and the new moon taking place in Sagittarius, which is the home of Jupiter. Jupiter is in its own bound and exalted, however retrograde in the sign of cancer. This is important, because we're we're going to see that as the cycle progresses, all of these planets you see in this lineup, including Mars and Capricorn, are going to go through a major opposition to Jupiter, which peaks at the time of the full moon.
So let's watch as this unfolds. I'm going to take this forward. We're going to go past the new moon. Sun enters Capricorn, Venus enters Capricorn. Soon enough, Mercury will enter Capricorn, and then we get the moon into cancer, and we're coming into the time of the full moon. Now, as the full Moon unfolds, let's just track this forward by some hours. Get the full moon in in in effect here.
Now at this time, what I want you to notice is that all of these planets are going through their cazimi, so their synodic reset. In other words, with the sun. This is the conjunction that the sun will is having with Venus. At this time, we're going to pull this forward another day, day after the Full Moon, Venus is cazimi, resetting herself. Going on a couple more days, we see that the sun will then get onto the same degree as Mars just a few days later, after after the full moon, and that synodic reset continues.
Then you see all three of them are triple conjoined, right? And we have kind of this dance of cazimi still taking place. Then they're all triple conjoined on January 8, but now they are all within three degrees of an opposition to Jupiter. And remember, Jupiter was the ruling planet of this lunation cycle. So here we have a whole bunch of planets moving through an opposition the very well dignified but retrograde Jupiter in the middle of the cycle from Full Moon through last quarter.
This is really the harvesting or fruiting of the lunation cycle. And you can see how Jupiter's just smack dab, like right in the middle of it all. We're going to talk more about this in a second. I'm going to try to break it down practically first. I just want to show you the technical side of it now that opposition will come through as all three planets remain pretty much exactly conjoined right around January 10 and 11th.
Of course, we're going to be covering this on the channel in depth. So if you're thinking, Gosh, I'll need a reminder about this, we've got you covered. Don't worry. We'll be back here looking at it for sure. But then as the planets pass through, then Mercury is going to get involved with the opposition, and that's under the next Dark Moon. So in other words, from the start of this cycle through the end, the major series of aspects in the sky during the cycle that define the texture and shape and heart of the cycle are all oppositions to the host of the cycle, Jupiter.
That means that the Capricorn cancer access is right at the heart of the entire lunation cycle, and that, in turn, is going to give us some very practical delineations, which is where we're going to head next. So what does all of this mean? Practically? Well, there are five things that I have for us to watch for, as always and. And let me just I have as I go through. I'm going to take I have a webinar tomorrow night. We have a solstice meeting on the weekend. I'm going to plug those things as we go, just kind of insert them along the way.
Let's get into it, though. Number one is that, when, when, first of all, when Jupiter is the ruler of an entire lunation cycle, and it starts off in Sagittarius, you can almost bet that things like the shaping, refining, developing of your beliefs will be a part of the cycle. Jupiter, broadly speaking, represents our beliefs and how they guide us, our convictions, ideological, spiritual, moral, philosophical and how they're evolving or changing.
Well, when we have Jupiter in the sign of cancer as the host of that exploration of wisdom, philosophy, belief, frequently, what we're exploring are emotional attachments. Nowadays, it's become really popular to talk about attachment styles. Let's break it down philosophically. Let's take it out of modern psychological context and put it into ancient, mystical, philosophical context. To be alive means to be in relationship, because the cosmos is an interdependent from, according to the Buddhist, independent, or is a interdependent co arising, kind of contingent, ongoing, unending phenomenon.
It's like saying reality is a giant ecosystem, and everything is affecting everything else simultaneously as everything co arises. That means you're embedded in relationships. You can't not be in relationships, but one of the hallmarks of being in relationship is holding the tension between your your own individual nature, your own individual boundaries, space, definition, character, and the reality of others that you are embedded in reality alongside of and so it's always been for 1000s of years, all mystical philosophical traditions have talked about the dance of independence and dependence, to deny our dependent existence and pretend like we live in vacuums of you know, personal strength and independence and individuality would be to ignore the relational nature of of our lives, and so we don't want to do that.
And cancer is frequently along the cancer Capricorn access cancer is often the wisdom of what it means to be nurtured and to nurture, to foster healthy, positive emotional attachment, that it's natural, necessary, beautiful, to live a whole, healthy, integrated, even spiritual life, that we are compassionate beings that seek emotional connection and warmth and love with each other. So a cycle that features Jupiter and cancer exalted in its own bound in retrograde may be asking us to reflect upon our emotional attachments, our emotional attachment style, the need for more healthy attachments, the need to deepen in them, to become more vulnerable to become wiser emotionally at the same time, we also know that unhealthy attachment styles often result from not being able to stand on our own two feet.
This is a common Capricorn cancer dialog that if you are over, if you if you kind of can't, you know, as I was talking the other day on a live stream about my daughter and her like, troubles sleeping at night kind of, kind of, it's like a struggle to, like, be okay on your own, and we're as parents, you know, here's my here's my Capricorn moon and my cancer sun, you know, having it out within myself about her fake crying.
You remember that story I told, and then the wind fake cried and called me out of bed, and, man, that was such a that was such a beautiful story, but it's really a very cancer Capricorn story. And not surprisingly, Jupiter and cancer is on my son right now, opposite my moon in in Capricorn. And so like, what does it mean to be independent and to be able to stand on your own, to be resilient emotionally, because people will disappoint us, and we can't invest or like we can't define all of our happiness or our well being according to our attachments or bonds with others, because that means that we leave ourselves vulnerable to being completely defined internally by the external.
We don't want that, you know, we, at the same time again, like to ignore that we are emotional beings. Is to ignore the cry of my daughter, even if it is a little fake, she still needs she needs help. She needs care and attention. Intention is she's making that transition to becoming more important. So, like, that's the tension of Capricorn cancer. My story the other day was so embarrassing, but but so insightful for me.
Personally, I learned so much from that and just another moment of learning to hold that tension that we're all learning to hold. So a cycle ruled by Jupiter like this in cancer with so many oppositions from Capricorn, is really about the age old. Way before attachment styles were ever a thing, there's simply, I'm a relational being. Attachment is normal, necessary and healthy. But how does that look secure? How does emotional attachment look healthy?
There is a very real sense in which I can't live without you and you can't live without me. As human beings, we need each other to admit that is strong, to admit that is healthy. You know, it's as honest a recognition as the fact that we can't live without the nourishment of Mother Earth. You know, on the other hand, we do have to be independent, emotionally strong, secure attachment comes from also being secure in ourselves.
You see how that dynamic could be such an important part of the growing, developing wisdom of this cycle. So watch for that. Number two would be just practical advice. Really look at the Capricorn cancer axis. We're going to be doing horoscopes as these oppositions come through, and we'll explore those in horoscopes. But you could really take some time right now. Look at the whole sign. You're using whole sign for horoscopes. So you also, if you use the whole sign version of your birth chart, not a problem already. You got it.
But look at that whole sign cap, cancer, access in your chart, the topics of those two houses are going to be in such a dialog this month, this cycle, although it starts in Sag, most of the cycle takes place between the ruler of the new moon, Jupiter, and all of these planets opposing in Capricorn. And remember, those planets in Capricorn are going through a reset which reflects a whole new cycle of growth and wisdom in the Capricorn part of our lives, so to speak.
So you know, there's there's a wisdom in both directions. Don't even though Jupiter and cancer is the ruler, sometimes Jupiter in Cancer, especially when it's retrograde, needs to revise or rethink what it means to be emotionally wise or strong, or what healthy attachment looks like. Capricorn can provide a lot of wisdom in that respect, because there are parts of life where it's like you have to be a little rugged.
You have to be grounded and strong and well boundaried and self sufficient. You have to be tough and resilient in spirit. You know you have to have a spirit that's seen some winters in Capricorns language. So if we have that, and we also have sweetness, I think that's probably the kind of balance we're looking to strike this month. But watch for the topics of Capricorn cancer in your chart with the houses to be activated.
All right. Well, I want to tell you briefly, before we go on in our list about our winter solstice event this Saturday. There's a lot of things to cover today, so I'm just kind of chinging it out a little bit. On Saturday evening, if you are in the Minneapolis St Paul area, we're meeting at the grapevine collective at the new city center. It's free to attend. It's about a two, two and a half hour gathering to talk about the winter solstice symbolism, meditate, do a little movement.
Have some cookies and tea together. So I hope to see you there. RSVP. It's free to come something that we do, to give back a little bit, and meet and have time together. So all right, let's keep going. The other thing on my list here is the wisdom of the feminine, the ancestral, the familial. There are times where our ancestors speak to us, or we can hear their voices more loudly or clearly, for better or for worse.
You will in a cycle like this, perhaps notice that the wisdom of the way your parents raised you is not the way you've decided to raise your kids, and it's just really standing out this cycle. You may notice that there's gifts or blessings that are coming through psychically, literally, physically, financially, emotionally, from your ancestors, from your family, from your parents, from other people in your family. So the wisdom and blessings of the family are perhaps pronounced in a cycle like this, but also the wisdom of the feminine, of the great goddesses, of Goddess culture of priestesses, of the priestess way of knowing and doing.
I want to say that even you know my even for myself, as a man, I'm I'm, I benefit so as a Cancer man, I guess, kind of like I have like a secret, like card to the society of priestesses with a cancer, son and mercury. Maybe I don't know. Certainly my wife is a cancer. Rising is a great example of this. For me, her motto, which I've shared before with you guys, that it's been an important part of her life, is tend to the living things first.
Like, whenever you're like, What do I do right now? Are the plants okay. Are the dogs okay? Are the kids, okay? Am I okay? Is my body okay? Am I hungry? Am I snacky? Is my husband Okay? These are the things that she tries to prioritize. She loves goddess culture, symbols, myths, you know, her altars. These are the things she works with, and one of the clearest transmissions that she says she's ever gotten from the goddess as a way of life is tend to the living things, including herself.
Of course, it might be a month where there's a conversation about how tough you need to be, about how resilient and stick to it, but look all of these cazimis and resets in Capricorn opposite that Jupiter and cancer could really be like, you know, how smart is it to get things done at the cost of your health, your your well being, you know? So like visiting the healing waters and springs of the Goddess, letting Capricorn that Capricornian part of you just release and take a rest.
Take the hiking boots off for a second and get a foot rub. You know what I mean. So let the wisdom of the priestesses and goddesses and the healing rivers and waters, metaphorically speaking, speak to your soul, heal you and help you redefine what it means to be productive. That is really giving the Jupiter part of this in cancer through her retrograde the revisionary guidance for our lives right now, and letting the Capricorn part reset to become deepened in its wisdom by the presence of the goddess Number four would be asking for help, versus resilience.
This is a common Capricorn cancer theme. Capricorn is so good at saying, I've got this. I'm going to keep rolling. I'm going to keep going. It's like a dog that won't let go of a stick. Just this is my tug toy, like I'm just gonna keep going. I'm like, you know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. All of that, there's a remarkable moment in Capricornian evolution and development when asking for help becomes the most productive way to carry on and get shit done.
Asking for help. In other words, it's a breakthrough when we conceptualize it as productive, healthy and not at all. Contrary to, let's say, the goal orientation, the hard work ethic or the drive of Capricorn, there are other times where we need to stop padding ourselves, stop being too precious. You know, we can drop sometimes into a little bit of a woe is me mindset. And Capricorn really is the wisdom that says, Look, if you want to care for yourself in the best possible way, you know, this is the voice in my head.
This is like the Capricorn. So I'm not it doesn't necessarily need to sound like this in you, but in me, it's like, shut the fuck up. Go to the gym, you know, go do some hard shit, walk on the treadmill, run on the treadmill, you know, lift some heavy weights, sweat, hit the sauna, stay in there for five minutes longer than you think you can. Take a cold shower and come out. Look at there's far less lip going on inside of you.
After you do all that, there's far less complaining about your life. There's far less you know what I mean. You just sometimes you just need to take your dog for a damn walk, and then it stops chewing and engaging in destructive behavior. Is it fun to take a walk in Minnesota when it's five below zero out? No, I don't even know if it's safe to take your dog out in that weather. Honestly, but, so I'm kidding, but. But the point is that sometimes the best wisdom that we actually need for the sake of nurturance, health, healing, softness and gentleness is to take our dog for a walk, to do the thing, to exercise, to move, to get the thing done, to stop procrastinating.
You're going to feel better if you just sit down and do that thing that you're dreading to do. But once you get it done, man, you're going to feel better. So sometimes the gentlest thing we can do for ourselves is sort of get, you know, just, just sort of shut up, put your head down and do it. That's Capricorns part of the wisdom. But the thing is, is that it doesn't have to be done in doesn't have to be done in a way that's like, I don't know, harsh and cruel.
It sounds Stern, but when you just get in there and do it, it can be one of the most self healing, self caring things that you do. I really have learned this. I'm joking, of course, but I really have learned this about doing hard things is that doing hard things doesn't mean you have to be a hard person, and there's a big difference discipline if you do it long enough with care in your heart becomes devotion.
That's the deep secret I've learned about being a full moon cancer, Capricorn native. It is that the things that you do that are hard, maybe at an earlier stage in my life, I celebrated the hardness of because I thought it needed to be that way. Now what I'm realizing is that you know the heart, the hard things that you do over time, the more you infuse them with heart. It goes from discipline a cap thing to devotion, which is the discipline, cancerified.
Cancerianized. I don't know what the word is anyway, all right, church, let's go to an I Ching reading to close. I did an I Ching reading for us today on this new moon. You so the hexagram was hexagram 41 let me get to it. Okay, here we are. So this hexagram is sometimes called debilitation or decrease. This is bene Bell Wenz translation. This was a hexagram that I drew for the new moon and just some wisdom for us.
It doesn't mean it's the only way of thinking about it. It's just what the I Ching decided to speak to me this morning, the Oracle, what goes stale will enter a state of rot. Growth and well being require dedication. Eradicate what is decaying immediately before it spreads. Never let mold fester. When movement takes a natural course toward decline, it becomes more advantageous to take up movement toward advancement. The question to ask is, how might one achieve advancement?
In spite of the ongoing state of decrease or debilitation, a great upheaval is coming, but heaven will protect you. Walk the path of light, honor the gods and ancestors with prayer, incense, offerings and song, you will remain protected by the Divine. Do not linger or dwell on matters that have come to their conclusion. Do not fault yourself for outcomes you couldn't control. Taking time for yourself in the mountains, at a lake or by the sea will cleanse your heart mind and replenish what had been lost due to the woes of every day at the base of the mountain a lake, when there is distress, the sage will tame anger and desire.
The book of rights outlined five emotions that are powerful driving forces, joy, anger, sorrow, love and hatred, like the Wu Ching, they are agents of change. Love and hatred can both become desire the uncultivated, let the five emotions control them. The sage controls the five emotions. When there is tamed, anger and desire, there will be gains and prosperity to harvest. In spite of the distress, a sacrifice made sincerely from the heart will bring good fortune.
Two baskets may be used for the sacrifice. Use great earnestness when imploring the divine for an intervention. When there is faith and trust, there will be enduring wealth and prosperity, you remain protected by the Divine hexagram 41 can be a sign of one with an external aspect of the self that is visibly debilitated, but internally is strong and resilient in spirit. Thus you are one of Heaven's beloved ones. I love that such a beautiful, beautiful text.
I'm going to read you a changing line in just a moment. But what I want to say initially about that is you can hear many of the echoes of what we were just talking about regarding the cancer Capricorn access. What goes stale will enter a state of rot, growth and well being require dedication. So this is speaking to dedication, devotion and discipline that's needed so that something doesn't fall apart. It's like in order to keep something going, to keep something up, to persist when things are debilitated or declining, we have to apply effort and dedication, focused effort, hard work, dedication, sacrifice.
It mentioned sacrifice in multiple places is needed so that something doesn't decline too badly or go into too much a state of disrepair. Now Jupiter, a planet of great, tremendous abundance and its exaltation, is currently retrograde. All of these planets in Capricorn are currently resetting in their synodic cycles, Venus and Mars with the sun. To me, the opposition between these two things could thus be saying, Look, this is a cycle in which the wisdom is going to be about how to keep things going with dedication, effort and focus when things are resetting or declining or even debilitated in some way.
I love that there is something that says here that even though something may look externally like it's falling apart, if you stay strong on the inside, dedicated on the. Inside, which is, again, I think it's it's that discipline. Turn to devotion, stay dedicated, stay persevering, stay hard working. If something feels like it's falling apart, it won't actually fall apart, because there's a strength and a resilience on the inside. This feels like that kind of moment.
All the cazimi is in Capricorn opposite a retrograde Jupiter and cancer. It really does feel like an opportunity to through effort and hard work not let something fall apart. Yeah, I like that a lot. Okay, so there's a changing line. Let me go to Mmm. Me get there. Sorry. All right, so the changing line is the fourth line, debilitation of the debilitation, recovery, recovered. Move swiftly to recover your happiness, joys worth celebrating blameless as a predictive oracular message.
The fourth line prognosticates healing and full recovery after having sustained an illness or loss. As philosophy, the line is about self correcting a character flaw, one that has been weakening us and preventing us from truly ascending to higher achievements. Thus now is the time to self correct that way we can more expediently achieve what we've undertaken. Implied herein is that one of the five driving forces of emotion has become imbalanced in our personality, joy, anger, sorrow, love or hatred, noting that either love or hatred can become desire.
Thus the sage is being called to cultivate greater control over these emotions, especially the one of these five that is most debilitating at this time. You see how so much of that line, as the hexagram itself was saying, is about learning to harness and control and have greater maturity with a particular emotion that is so cap cancer, that's so all of these planets in cap, resetting opposite the, you know, the retrograde Jupiter in Cancer.
It's like this is a time to become wiser and more mature emotionally. How we control emotions without negating them? Attachment styles. We have to be attached, but we have to have a secure form of attachment. These are the kinds of real, deep emotional lessons that are at the core of this cycle. So curbing, one of the ways that hexagram 41 can be read in general, is about controlling and curbing negative emotions, and doing that without being hard, repressive or overly strict.
Right? That would be, it's like, it's very much like the other day when I said my daughter was having some negative demonstrations of emotion, sort of resisting just being a big girl and going to sleep. But I had to look at it in a softer way. There to set a boundary, demonstrate care, compassion. It's like, you know, positive reinforcement is the wisdom that's going to help her far more than being cruel and stern, just because, you know, some of her was being like immature, and I want her to be more mature, right?
There's a there's a way of modeling that thing, I think frequently about Mr. Rogers. He's such a good example. He was such a good example of how to model like a mature, wise, reflective, self sufficient attitude in such a gentle, caring way. So we're trying to strike that balance in the month ahead. Well, I hope that in talking around all of this, we're circumambulating a moon cycle that itself is a great circumambulation, you know.
So I hope that it's been useful like the last thing that I want to tell you about is tomorrow night. I have a webinar.
