It’s Monday, January 8th, and tonight’s crescent Moon is waning. With only 9% of illumination, with should see a thin slice in the heavens this evening. 

The first Moon phase of 2024 begins on January 11th (111), with a new moon in the astrological sign, Capricorn. The new moon in Capricorn reminds us of the balance that’s needed between our emotional side (moon) and how we respond or react (moon). Capricorn is a pragmatic sign that rewards through consistency and hard work. If we aren’t in control of our emotions, then we cannot carry out the pragmatic approach Capricorn requires. 


This afternoon at exactly 12 o’clock, the Sun on the 17th degree of Capricorn in the 10th House (Career/Public Reputation) was in trine 🔺 with Uranus on the 19th degree of Taurus in the 1st House (Self). With the Sun and Uranus in trine, their relationship is lucky, positive, and productive. 

The connection here is between the 1st House, which represents you, and the 10th House issues of career and reputation. The work we chose to do, how we earn our money, and what we do for a living is directly connected to how we see ourselves and how we present ourselves to the public. 

With Uranus involved, there’s a much needed transformation coming in those areas. The Sun represents a lot of things, but one of the most important is human will. If you’ve been grounded (Earth) and pragmatic (Capricorn) in your approach to 10th House issues, then the higher octaves of Uranus will take us to the next level. With Uranus in Taurus, persistence is the key, and if you’ve been persistent, then it’s payoff time. 

If you’ve been doing the work, then you can expect from this alignment, to see a breakthrough in the 10th House as it relates to your 1st House. 

What does this mean? 

Maybe it’s a promotion. Maybe it’s a job change, but not just any job change. It might be a change that removes you from an ordinary job, and puts you in a position you’ve always wanted. This change could be from ordinary job to a real career, and there’s a difference between taking any job, and being hired to do something you’ve always to do.

With Uranus involved, this energy is transformational! It’s life changing. Suddenly, the opinions you have of yourself are changed, which will without a doubt change the opinions people have of you. Suddenly, the people around you respect and admire you. Having the right career can do this. 

When it comes to the connection between self and career, you can expect new opportunities that have the power to change your life. Capricorn is patient, it’s about taking little steps until an opportunity presents itself, and no one in the zodiac is better than Capricorn when it comes to seizing the moment.
