Your Capricorn Season & Winter Solstice 2022 Horoscope: What Your Zodiac Sign Should Expect
This special time of year marks the arrival of winter solstice in the northern hemisphere and summer solstice in the southern hemisphere. The December Solstice and the Sun’s entrance into Capricorn on December 21 signifies the longest night of the year. This solstice is closely associated with regeneration, personal rebirths, and inner transformations. Capricorn is the 10th sign of the zodiac that brings cardinal earth energy — it has the ambition and leadership potential of an action-taking cardinal sign and the grounded and constructive nature of a controlled earth sign. Ruled by Saturn — the planet of responsibility and karma — Capricorn season is about playing by the rules, taking accountability for yourself, and owning your inner authority.
Represented by the mythological sea goat, the Capricorn archetype signifies our journey from the depths of the ocean, (or our inner world and emotions) to the highest point of the mountain (aka, achieving our goals, ambitions, and purpose). This season encourages careful and steady journeys and facilitates the development of your resilience, determination, and wisdom from lived experiences. Capricorn season will motivate you to embody your inner sea goat — that is, the side of you that is able to strategize and overcome any hurdle. However, depending on your rising sign, you will do this in a unique area of your life. Don’t know what your rising sign is? Click here to find out.
Aries
Aries, Capricorn season will activate your ambitious nature and desire to achieve big things. This is the perfect time to set your sights on new career aspirations and to be controlled and wise in your pursuit of achieving your goals. It may be tempting to throw caution to the wind and race ahead, but it’s important to ensure every step forward is a deliberate choice of action. Be consistent and be controlled!
Taurus
Knowledge is power, and knowing your stuff will encourage others to trust you in positions of authority and leadership. If you really want to level up this season, Taurus, expand your mental horizons and deepen your worldly wisdom. Set your sights on any short courses or information you need to gather that will support your future career moves. These things may seem like a small step, but they’ll make a big difference.
Gemini
Karmic Capricorn season could unearth your deep-rooted inner wounds. Pay attention to any changes in your attitude and behavior, as this may reflect the traumas or trust issues that you’re unconscious of. Your fears about growing old or running out of time could grow and contribute to your sudden pessimism or materialism. Your healing is your responsibility — step into your power and seize this opportunity to grow.
Cancer
The spotlight will be on your love life this Capricorn Season, encouraging you to strengthen your one-on-one partnerships by doing what you do best — taking care of those you love. However, remember cooperation and honesty are essential for any healthy and happy partnership. Steer clear of falling into the trap of competing with others during this ambitious season. Never measure your success against the achievements of others; your journey is unique!
Leo
It’s time to map out your health and wellness goals and structure a new, healthy, and balanced routine (that is actually sustainable). Forget about what your favorite celebrity, influencer, or BFF does in their daily rituals — what does your body need, and how can you reconnect to it? Avoid worrying about whether your lifestyle changes are paying off, as you may not see immediate effects. Don't give up, be consistent, and commit to the long journey of being happy on the inside and out.
Virgo
Sometimes, you tend to take life too seriously, Virgo. This Capricorn season will activate your joy and romance sector, calling you to reconnect with your heart and to do something that lights you up. However, you’ll need to take accountability for your actions that are contradictory to what you want — such as putting up emotional walls and barriers when you’re looking for connection. This season may also be a ripe opportunity to begin a new creative venture and long-term project that could blossom next year. Have fun with it!
Libra
Owning your inner power and authority will be your main task this season, as doing so will allow you to take control of situations that disturb your peace or cause you to feel stagnant. Rather than living on autopilot and handling matters robotically— especially those which arise at home and within your family — reflect on the life you’d like to live and how you can make conscious decisions now that will lead you to these goals.
Scorpio
Serious-minded Capricorn season will unlock your mental power and influence. Choose your words wisely, as the ways you speak to others will form your reputation. An over-crystallization of your pragmatic worldview could allow pessimism to creep in this month. If you notice that your perception is holding you back, make a change by taking inspiration from other people’s points of view which you admire. Learn to laugh at minor setbacks and to (mentally) move on from your mistakes instead of wasting time by brooding.
Sagittarius
It may be time to create a productive to-do list to ensure all your priorities are met and that you stay on target. Diligent Capricorn season is your moment to put in the work and get closer to achieving your financial and material goals. You may think that planning takes away from the excitement of following your dreams and going with the flow, but skipping steps to achieve your goals faster could lead to short-lived milestones that leave you feeling disappointed later down the line.
Capricorn
The Sun will grace your zodiac sign, bringing new revelations and moments of self-understanding that leave you feeling energized and renewed. Rise to the challenge of replenishing and restoring your energy by doing something just for you (that isn’t work-related). By exploring who you are at this point in your life and how content you are, you will be able to effectively plan where your next journey will take you. The world is your oyster, Capricorn.
Aquarius
Aquarius, Capricorn season is a valuable time of year for you to develop more wisdom and tend to your mental health. Powering through challenges and handling your emotional well-being all on your own may seem practical, but think of how you will feel in the long run if you don’t dive deep into your emotions now. Instead of ruminating over past mistakes, beating yourself up, or allowing guilt to consume you, ask for support (instead of waiting for people to come to you), and your hardships will turn into understanding.
Pisces
The intentions which you set this season will later manifest in awards, achievement, and success. Take your dreams seriously (they’re not too ambitious), and put in as much time working as you spend fantasizing about how the outcome will feel. Your friendships and community may become a bigger focus this Capricorn season. Be selective of who you spend time with, and don’t naively believe that everyone around you is trustworthy — especially when it comes to sharing your ideas, plans, and visions with them.
