Strategy and Realization: Therapeutic Suggestions for Capricorn

The Sun entered Capricorn on December 21, 2024, at 6:21 AM, marking the beginning of the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. In addition to bringing the warmest season of the year, this moment symbolizes an important energetic transformation, guiding us to create lasting structures and goals.

Governed by Saturn, the planet that rules time, discipline, and responsibility, Capricorn inspires us to persevere in our objectives, valuing patience and hard work. After the expansive and optimistic period of Sagittarius, this energy invites us to focus on planning and the realization of concrete dreams.

How can we make the most of Capricorn's energy? Here are some therapeutic suggestions to tune into the determination and strength of this sign:

1. Reconnect with the Earth:

   Capricorn is an Earth sign, and cultivating this connection can help strengthen your foundations. Go for a hike, climb a mountain, or simply walk barefoot in nature. Feeling your feet on the earth renews your energy and connects you to the present moment, symbolizing the solidity needed to move forward.

2. Respect Your Limits:

   The impulse to take on responsibilities is a strong characteristic of this sign. However, it's important to find a balance to avoid overload. Prioritize self-care and remember: every step, no matter how small it seems, is part of a larger journey.

3. Take Care of Your Joints and Move:

   Capricorn rules the knees and joints. Daily stretching and physical activities that promote flexibility are essential to prevent physical and emotional tension. This practice also reflects the need to balance rigidity with adaptability in life.

4. Embrace Your Emotions:

   Capricorn's pragmatism can make it difficult to connect with feelings. Take moments to reflect on your achievements and allow yourself to feel pride and gratitude for them. Expressing emotions through writing, art, or conversation with trusted people can bring lightness and clarity.

5. Plan with Purpose

   Use Capricorn's energy to set realistic and detailed goals. This is a great time to organize your life projects, breaking down big objectives into smaller, achievable steps. Planning with intentionality brings a sense of control and accomplishment.

   
   

Meditation to Attune to Capricorn Energy

Find a comfortable position. Close your eyes, relax your facial muscles, and begin to observe your breath. Inhale and exhale deeply through your nose, connecting to the present moment.

Bring your attention to the Muladhara Chakra, located at the base of your spine (coccyx). Visualize a bright red light radiating from this region, connecting you to the energy of the Earth. This chakra, associated with the Earth element, is the center of stability, security, and ambition.

With each breath, imagine this red light strengthening your roots and aligning your focus to achieve your goals.

Repeat the mantra: "I plan, I persist, and I achieve."

Feel rooted, confident, and energized. As you finish, visualize your body illuminated by the red light, ready to face challenges with determination and balance.

Namaste

See you soon, on another journey of self-knowledge and expansion.
