The first new moon of 2026 arrives on the 18th of January, shining its light in the determined and disciplined sign of Capricorn. This celestial event marks a powerful moment for setting intentions, making plans, and grounding ambitions in reality.

What the New Moon in Capricorn Symbolises Astrologically

Capricorn is an earth sign ruled by Saturn, the planet of discipline, structure, and time. When the new moon occurs in Capricorn, it combines the fresh energy of new beginnings with Capricorn’s grounded, practical nature. This alignment encourages us to:

• Build solid foundations for future success

• Commit to long-term goals with patience and perseverance

• Take responsibility for our actions and decisions

• Focus on career, ambition, and personal growth

  
  

The new moon phase itself is a time for planting seeds—both literally and metaphorically. In Capricorn, these seeds are about creating lasting change through careful planning and steady effort. This is not a time for impulsive decisions but for thoughtful intention setting that aligns with your values and ambitions.

Predictions for the January 2026 New Moon in Capricorn

Expect this new moon to bring a wave of practical energy that supports progress in various areas of your life. Here are some key predictions for this lunar cycle:

Career and Ambition

This new moon favors career advancements and professional development. You may find opportunities to take on new responsibilities or start projects that require dedication. It’s a good time to:

• Update your CV/Resume or portfolio

• Network with professionals who share your goals

• Set clear, achievable milestones for your work

  
  

Personal Growth and Discipline

Capricorn’s influence encourages self-discipline and maturity. You might feel motivated to adopt healthier habits or improve your daily routines. This period supports:

• Establishing consistent exercise or wellness practices

• Creating budgets or financial plans

• Learning new skills that require focus and patience

Relationships and Boundaries

While Capricorn energy is often associated with work and ambition, it also teaches the importance of boundaries. This new moon can help clarify what you need in relationships and encourage honest conversations about commitments and expectations.

Challenges to Watch For

The serious tone of Capricorn can sometimes lead to feelings of pressure or rigidity. It’s important to balance ambition with self-care and avoid becoming overly critical of yourself or others.

How to Make the Most of the Energy This Month

To harness the energy of the January 2026 new moon in Capricorn, consider these steps:

Set Clear and Realistic Goals

Write down your goals for the month ahead and beyond. Break them into manageable steps and prioritise what matters most. Use Capricorn’s methodical energy to create a timeline and hold yourself accountable.

Create a Structured Plan

Develop a daily or weekly schedule that supports your goals. Include time for work, rest, and reflection. Structure helps maintain momentum and reduces overwhelm.

Practice Patience and Persistence

Understand that meaningful progress takes time. Celebrate small wins and stay committed even when results are slow. Capricorn rewards steady effort.

Reflect on Your Responsibilities

Take stock of your current obligations and decide which ones align with your values. Let go of tasks or relationships that drain your energy without contributing to your growth.

Use Rituals to Ground Yourself

Incorporate grounding practices such as meditation, journaling, or spending time in nature. These rituals can help you stay connected to your intentions and reduce stress. I also have a blog post on this too: https://www.blackfeatherpsychicmedium.co.uk/post/meditation-guidance
