Winter Solstice - Setting Intentions with the Sun

12/22/2015

We've passed the winter solstice, as the sun moved into Capricorn yesterday, and with it comes the first day of winter and the return of the light.

This is the time that we can tune in and set intentions for what we desire in the coming year, but especially in the next six months.  What seeds do you want to plant now that will grow with the light as we move towards the summer solstice?  What do you want to see grow in your life?  What do you want to feel?  Sit with these questions and see what comes to the surface.

Now make a list of the action steps you can take to achieve these goals and desires.  The sun is now shining in Capricorn, the sign ruled by Saturn and represented by the goat.  Saturn (now in Sagittarius) is also in the process of making three exact squares to Neptune (in Pisces), which won't complete until toward the end of 2016. The first of these occurred at the end of November, and may have given you a glimmer into your visions for a new way of being in the world.

The Saturn-Neptune square is asking us to make our dreams reality.  Neptune puts us in touch with our intuition, our dreams, and visions.  Saturn is asking us to do the work and take the action steps to ground our dreams, goals and desires into reality.  

Now with the sun shining in Saturn's sign of Capricorn, bringing the light of consciousness to the characteristics of diligence, responsibility and persistence, we plant our seeds and move into the necessary work to nurture and grow them into reality.  The Saturn-Neptune square will be running in the background helping us to remember to keep our ideals and dreams - the goals we aspire to - at the forefront of our minds as we envision our new reality, while we take the necessary action steps and do the work to give birth to it.

Think of a mountain goat, the symbol of Capricorn, climbing a mountain.  He aspires to the top, but he moves toward his goal steadily, step by step.  He must ensure that each step has sure footing, a stable foundation, before he takes the next.  He may run into an area along the way that is impassible, and therefore he must find a new route.  He makes his way to the top step by step, slowly, surely, steadily and deliberately.  

As you set your intentions and goals and now move into action to bring them into being, remember the mountain goat.  Let the energy of the sun in Capricorn remind you of the practicalities of grounding your biggest dreams into reality and carry you to the top of that beautiful peak.
