Winter Blues, or just part of the process?

Winter Blues, or just part of the process?

It’s that time of year when the Sun is now traversing Capricorn Constellation - the earthiest of the Earth Element sky trio - bringing even more water to our soils. 

A lot of water is being evaporated in this warmer Earth climate, so a lot of water is available to come back down 🌧 ❄️ 🧊 and Capricorn Sun, or Moon cosmic weather, is the wettest.
(unless you take into sun flare effects)

AI - Capricorn Sun, or Moon cosmic weather, is the wettest.

Capricorn 🌞 Sun Season  is quite a tough one for northern hemisphere peeps …

It’s been dark short days for a long time now - we are low in our sunshine vitamin and impatient for the upsurging energy of Spring weather because we can feel the call of February/March Spring energy.

It is time for us to dig deep into mental, emotional, and physical discipline - and make time to practice sunshiny thoughts, remember to do a little of what we love, decide how we want this year to go for our own wellbeing,  or if everything is swell, cosy up and enjoy for just a bit longer - Practicing appreciation of everything that’s right in our life, what we have, is one of the best disciplines to have.

For those feeling like they want to burst, from the lack of outdoor living, keep hanging in there through this extra wet constellation (doubled by current X rated sun-flare inducing electromagnetic effects -Jan 2026 ) by inching forwards with what works for you, and / or has clarity and precision.

 

Capricorn energy is the Disciplined Builder   In the Life Stages of Astrology Capricorn this is House 10 - the area that involves carving out a life, over time and consistent dedicated action.  Not frivolous, not a time waster. While winter looks baron to a quick glance, under the soil within the trees and plants themselves, Capricorn energy has slowly been keeping everything ticking along, going in the right direction of evolution, growth and learning. Hidden not showy, like someone out at work everyday, bringing home the pay check, the developer behind a web platform, the foundations or a skyscraper.

 

Capricorn carefully and specifically, builds our chosen life purpose into something real and long lasting. 

 

Capricorn is Father Time energy and loves the boundary of repetitive discipline, building blocks, sticking to the path that builds a career, a format, an identity, a movement, or a family home. 

With Capricorn energy, structure is born from lessons learned, boundary’s are constrcted by decisions made, definitions are carved, energy is condensed into chosen form.  Reality is created by density of consistent habit.

 

"Capricorn represents the qualities that come through when we are future oriented and grounding our life purpose. Balancing our future with our past, Capricorn is about cultivating our spiritual roots. Qualities such as responsibility, pragmatism, and patience are seen with this sign." 

Athen Chimenti, Mastering the Zodiac

 

Without Capricorn energy everything would just stay a caring wish, a hopeful prayer, an emotional desire, a long lost day dream.

In this season when you just want sunshine and play - if you can’t jetset away, help yourself by digging a little deeper and use this Earth element season to make just a few more disciplined tweaks, additions, attempts, to your long term projects while the rain keeps you stuck indoors, the cold puts you off that walk, and the washing takes an age to dry.

Keep yourself healthy though - even if you don't have much room, you can:- stretch, exercise, uncurl yourself. Breath big, deep and long to counter the lack of winter stillness. 

If you have the means, buy some natural-sourced, Vitamin D supplements, as body levels are low at this time of year, especially if you work inside, or do night shift-work.


Get yourself ready for Spring - by noticing and enjoying the gradually increasing day length, even if it’s hidden behind the flat grey sky, of Water Element Winter (light amendment) the days are actually already quite a bit longer and the first spring flower bulbs are picking their way through the frozen soil. 

At the very least / or most importantly, appreciate how Mother Nature has worked out how to get through winter and know that you can do the same. It really won't be long until your garden is in bloom again.

If, however, you need a pic-me-up, a strengthener, a boost to see your through, to accompany that book you received for Christmas, to support your mineral balance, to lift your endorphins...

There’s always high quality chocolate!!

And thanks to some wonderful caring people, who have been consistently making wonderful decisions in their lives - we have some of the best available.
