Grab a pen and notebook, and get an early start on your resolution-setting. (Yes, we mean before 2025 begins.) This December 30, the new moon in goal-getter Capricorn rolls out an ideal moment to plot your ambitious moves.
New moons are prime moments each month to plant seeds—and a new moon at the end of the year brings a double dose of inspiration. Half a year later, you harvest the results during the corresponding full moon. Look ahead to July 10, 2025, the date of the Capricorn full moon. What would you like to manifest by then?
This Capricorn new moon isn’t just the final new moon of 2024, it’s also a rare black moon, the second new moon in a single calendar month. Ideas that began to germinate during the December 1 Sagittarius new moon get a second wave of momentum this December 30. That’s not all! This is also the second Capricorn new moon of 2024—the first was on January 11—bookending the year with pragmatic and determined energy.
As you start to visualize your resolutions, don’t drift too far from reality. Not to stick a pin in your balloon, but Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the planet of discipline, responsibility, and long-term planning. This is a P.S.A. that progress is built on sturdy foundations. Our advice for creating a solid base for your resolutions? Set S.M.A.R.T. goals: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound.
Fire as it would be to emulate Chappell Roan’s 2024 rise to success, that rapidly accelerating timeline is unlikely to happen for the vast majority of people. By all means, get clear on what your Lollapalooza-level victory could be. Imagine your version of playing to a sea of screaming fans that stretches farther than the eye can see. Write that out in detail. Where would you be and with whom? What would it look like, smell like, feel like?
Then, scale down to something more “Pink Pony Club.” If you could make waves with a small group first, what would you do? Everyone starts somewhere! Orchestrate away!
While this new moon brings positive news for your 2025 vision board, the low-key energy of a new moon could temper NYE celebrations. The moon hovers in Capricorn all night on December 31, encouraging elegance over extravagance. Forget about a brat New Year’s Eve. Save the ripped tights and smudged liner for the Aquarius new moon on January 29. Instead, channel a vintage Kate Moss (a Capricorn) in slip dresses, faux furs, or grey jeans with over-the-knee boots.
Fireworks and fanfare are fine in small doses, sure. Parties are likely to wind down earlier, or end on an introspective note with serious conversations about what 2025 could bring. Even if your plans involve a 2 A.M. DJ set and fountains of champagne, don’t be surprised if you find yourself craving a quieter moment to check in with yourself as the clock strikes midnight.
At the very least, take a solid disco nap during the December 30 Capricorn new moon. As 2024 fades into memory, allow yourself to dream of what’s next—not with urgency, but with quiet confidence. Capricorn knows that the climb is always worth it—and under this black moon, you’re perfectly poised to take the first step.
