Capricorn Solar Eclipse 2019: The Last Eclipse of The Decade

What is a solar eclipse?

A solar eclipse is a cosmic phenomenon that supports opportunities for radical change. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon aligns between the Sun and Earth. In a solar eclipse, the Sun symbolizes a challenge that encourages you to find new ways of expressing your ego in your life. The Moon symbolizes the emotional boundaries or blockages that may keep you from expressing your ego in a way that is beneficial to your life purpose and personal growth. The Earth symbolizes the collective and our abilities, the primal connection, and vitality we share with the Cosmos.

It’s important to note that Eclipses come in pairs. Whenever there is a Solar Eclipse there will be a lunar eclipse within the same month. Unlike the typical new moon effects that last four weeks, the effects of the Solar eclipse will last 6 months and the next decade.

December 2019: Partial Solar Eclipse in Capricorn 

Eclipses are the “alarm clocks” of our internal and external lives. They encourage us to awaken to new possibilities and opportunities to evolve and reprogram. However, most eclipses come with an emphasis or crisis response. Weeks before the Eclipse may feel solid and comfortable, and as we grow closer (or shortly after), a crisis happens to trigger your “awakening.”

With the December Partial Solar Eclipse occurring at 04 Capricorn, hitting the angles of the 4th and 10th house, the last solar eclipse of the decade will affect matters of career and consequently, the security and state of our personal lives. Many feel “stuck” in their career, or have hopes of transitioning into a position that allows more personal freedom, authority, and recognition. This is an excellent period for entrepreneurship. Those who currently own and operate a business will experience lucky breaks or divine opportunities to expand and secure a “nest egg” for the future. Those who are interested in entrepreneurship will begin to prepare and learn so that when the opportunity arises they will be ready. Others may receive opportunities for promotion or management.

Our personal lives are also accented, mainly concerning matters of the home, family, and personal responsibility. Many may feel a strong urge to regain control over their lives based on the environment, location, and quality of where they live. Some may experience changing circumstances due to the birth of a child, a child leaving home, a sickly or aging family member, newfound personal independence, or growing/transitioning personal responsibility. The eclipse will change how we interact, engage, and give/share with others.

Many of us will realize how much we have given, how much we have shared, how much we have nurtured in comparison to the validation, promotion, and recognition we have received in return. This realization pushes us to hold greater values over time, energy, and care. The support of our community and “family” will deepen, but with clearer boundaries and expectations. We will no longer give so much of ourselves without the absolute guarantee that it will be reciprocated in return. When an eclipse hits these angles of our chart, we will experience endings, completions, and final resolutions for the major lessons we have been learning in our lives. It’s vital that we take stock and meditate on our winnings and failures so that we can make the necessary fundamental changes for our future.

Horoscopes for the 2019 December Solar Eclipse in Capricorn: 

Aries: Over the next six months, you will have the opportunity to rebuild your public recognition and professional reputation. What you do with this powerful energy is up to you. For those seeking a promotion or a change of pace, the universe supports your desire now. But it’s time that you think outside the box, beyond money and power. What does your soul want? What is your life’s purpose? Being honest about your desires will help you reconstruct a life that serves your highest will and supports you in the material realms. The work and foundation that you build will support your family and lineage for generations to come.

Taurus: Over the next six months, you will go through radical periods of research and engagement. In some moments, you may feel like you have no control over the environment around you, but this is the universe’s way of teaching you how to surrender to the unknown. Your focus will be on the future and the impact you will carry to the greater world. How you express your beliefs, ideas, and innovations to the world is under construction. Some may be called to writing, publishing, film, and other mediums of mass communication. If you find yourself in a position to learn something new or share your skills on a wider scale, accept it. If you embrace the call to leadership and expansion, you could very well be a recognized thought leader in your industry within the next three years. 

Gemini: Over the next six months, you will recognize your desire for material possessions and wealth in your life. At first, this could manifest through intense jealousy or an innate desire to be rewarded for all that you have given and shared with society. Self-awareness of how you give, receive, and connect through love and intimacy will deepen. This realization encourages you to reprogram commitment and physical pleasure. You may be placed in uncomfortable situations to wake you up this need. However, each uncomfortable situation pushes you closer and closer to change, giving you the confidence and stamina to prioritize your worth at all times. If you struggle with asking people for help, this transit will force you to make peace with shared responsibility. If finances are a struggle at any time during this transit, help others. When you help others you will feel a renewed sense of spiritual wealth that no amount of currency could ever perceive. 

Cancer: Over the next six months, you will become more aware of your need to grow and change the way you interact with other people in your life, especially how and why you give your power away. This may manifest as a radical awareness that the current people in your life don’t align with your true self or life purpose, causing you to make extreme changes to your relationship dynamics and social patterns. Although many Cancers' will most likely go through radical changes in who they date, hang out with, and marry or divorce, it doesn’t have to be to the point of separation. Learning how to cooperate with others and their changes while still appreciating the needs and values of self is equally as important.

Leo: Over the next six months, how you respond to the daily triggers and stimuli of life will evolve. Issues surrounding your health and well-being will transform, encouraging you to take control over how you eat, what you think, and the way you organize your daily schedule. It may be beneficial to connect with a support or interest group, a safe space where you can share and build your skills without force. If at any point you feel overwhelmed or alone, reexamine your habits. Are your habits building vitality or depleting it? At times you may feel like you are losing control over the reality that you have created for yourself, but this is a reminder that you are evolving and that is okay. 

Virgo: Over the next six months, you will become more aware of the dreams and visions that are left unfulfilled; the ways that you have castrated your passions and joys for the sake of other people or material abundance. You may feel intense emotions of resentment, frustration, anger, or tension, but this is healthy. The more you accept what has been holding you back from building and living the life of your dreams the more you can transform it. Many will strongly consider changing jobs or starting a passion project/hobby. This is a beautiful time to use creativity and self-expression as a medium to help others but in your unique way. If you have talents or dreams that you know will not only please you but will also be an asset to society, it’s time that you share them. Open your heart to the love and creativity it seeks.

Libra: Over the next six months, major transformations regarding your family, home, and sense of emotional and financial security will occur. How you give to others and the responsibilities that come with them are ready to evolve. At times, this transition can feel overwhelming and unfair, but the more you postpone this liberation process the more you cut off your independence. Children are a focal point of this transit. Libras looking to conceive may endure some challenges but will succeed. Libras who are looking to move or relocate should research nontraditional methods for purchasing a home. If you are looking for a new job, think about home-based business or positions. But before you can build a new foundation, you need to clear out any self-worth or insecurity issues holding you back. Over giving and under receiving is not love. Be adamant about your boundaries, expectations, and needs. Demand that others meet you equally, not halfway.

Scorpio: Over the next six months, how you express your thoughts, ideas, and listen to others will radically change. Any fears stemming from childhood that cause you to silence your voice or dwindle your power will emerge for clearing. Instead of reacting and responding only when triggered, uncover new ways of channeling your intellect and interests that aren’t connected to trauma. Many Scorpios will find this transit rehabilitating to matters of career and ambition. Much of your success will most likely come through close friends and associates, or residents of your current neighborhood or childhood home. Stepping outside of your comfort zone and getting more notoriety in your local community will open the doors to larger platforms. The key is learning how to work with the hand you’ve been dealt. 

Sagittarius: Over the next six months, how you go about ownership, material possessions, and building wealth will transform. Many Sagittarius’ will have to come face-to-face with their issues regarding debt, scarcity, and lack of financial discipline. Much of this “trauma” comes from childhood traumas or a tense upbringing. As much as you would like to think that your current situation isn’t a result of unhealed inner child wounds, it is. However, the Solar Eclipse supports you in this process and encourages you to seek the support of others, especially those who are experts in this area. Abundance is on the other side of your fears. 

Capricorn: Over the next six months, your level of self-awareness will evolve beyond measure. Who you are, what you like, what you need, and what you will become are under construction. This sense of “unfolding” will lead you to make drastic changes to your appearance and self-image, some physical and some not. This sense of intensity will come from extreme boredom or resentment towards your current reality. If you feel “over life,” don’t take it personally. This is the universe’s way of waking you up and informing you that anything is possible. Be open to new opportunities to express yourself and your talents. The more you accept what your intuition brings you, the more aligned and “powerful” you will feel. You may not recognize yourself in the next three years, but to be alive is to change. Enjoy it.

Aquarius: Over the next six months, you may be feeling very isolated or confused about where you “fit” in with society. A common feeling of misunderstanding occurs in highs and lows, sending you on an internal search of recognition, validation, and purpose. At the same time, you may also experience feelings of inner peace and enjoyment from the silence and stillness of this transit. This is an excellent time to start a dream journal, start an art project or craft/hobby, music, or any other creative activity. Although you will go through periods of disconnection its important that you address any underlying fears or traumas involving the material and public world. Many will have to encounter and flow through shame, rebelliousness, and abandonment, but this is helping you heal. The more that you make peace with this point of stillness and void, the more confidence and security you will create. Accept who you are and when you are ready, be brave enough to share that with the world.

Pisces: Over the next six months, you will rediscover what life means to and for you. This transit encourages you to question the rules and regulations of life and shape them into something that improves your life and the lives of others. You may feel divinely called to take a higher position as a lightworker, working to improve the Earth and its people. Your creative abilities will be used to bring light and beauty to our world. Use this transit to align with those who support and share your vision for a brighter, more organized and sustainable earth. Others may find you more rebellious or “extreme” than usual, but this is okay. Your purpose during this season of life is not to confine and restrain, but to make space and enlighten. Tap into this universal power. You are divinely supported!
