Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn

Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn: Cultivating Inner Strength

On July 5, a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn finally closes the gateway of transformation that opened a month ago, with a Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius.

Eclipse season happens twice a year: the next portal opens in December. However, this is the last Eclipse in Capricorn for a while: the next one takes place in about ten years.

A Lunar Eclipse is an extremely powerful Full Moon. Any Full Moon represents the completion and maturation of a process. As we reap what we sow and enjoy the fruits of our work, we are also encouraged to let go of our attachment to the cycle coming to an end.

This Eclipse invites us to reflect on what has come to fruition and what hasn't and to appreciate what we learned along the way. She invites us to acknowledge how much we have changed in the last six months. This cosmic event represents the best opportunity we have in 2020 to release old assumptions and beliefs that don't serve our growth.

Finding Balance & Cultivating inner strength

Capricorn is about becoming confident in who we are and what we do. This sign is correlated with the process of growth and maturation, of becoming autonomous. Capricorn, in its highest expression, teaches us to say "no", to create and hold boundaries, to be disciplined, hard-working, and perseverant. It inspires us to take full responsibility for ourselves and our actions.

The Moon in Capricorn is opposing the Sun in sentimental Cancer, which is all about emotions, family, and nurturance.

Capricorn is linked to the sense of security we derive from having a job, owning a house, and having savings in our bank account. On the other hand, Cancer represents the sense of security we get from having a support system, people who love us, and a home where we feel safe.

The Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn represents an invitation to find a balance between our professional and personal life, between the time spent at home and the time spent out in the world. She reminds us that self-care and emotional balance are crucial to improve our productivity.

This supportive celestial event inspires us to cultivate inner strength and self-mastery, to become our own authority. The Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn encourages us to let go of any limiting assumptions around ourselves and what we cannot accomplish in life: she invites us to go after what we want fearlessly.
