On 19 January 2026, we welcome a New Moon in Capricorn, bringing a grounded, clarifying energy that helps you return to what truly matters. This lunation isn’t about dramatic breakthroughs — it’s about quiet strength, steady beginnings, and choosing a direction that honours your wellbeing. Keep reading to understand the current energies for the next 2 weeks and a tip on how best to use them to your advantage.
Capricorn invites us to pause and ask:
What deserves my long‑term commitment, and what no longer fits the path I’m choosing?
This New Moon highlights the structures that hold your life together: your routines, your responsibilities, your boundaries, and the expectations you’ve been carrying. Many people feel a natural urge to simplify, reorganise, or gently step back from roles that no longer feel aligned.
You may notice:
a desire to clear physical or emotional clutter
a need to rebuild routines that actually support you
fatigue from over‑functioning or over‑giving
a craving for stability, competence, and self‑trust
a quiet clarity about what needs to shift
This is a moon of self‑authority, not pressure. It helps you reclaim your time, your energy, and your right to move at a pace that feels humane.
🌑 Supportive Tools for This New Moon in Capricorn
This moment is especially potent — we’re stepping into a #1 Year in numerology and a New Moon in Capricorn. Both carry the same message: build solid foundations now, and you set the tone for the next nine‑year cycle.
Capricorn energy is ideal for intentions that are steady, realistic, and aligned with your long‑term direction. The energy stays active for about two weeks, right up until the Full Moon, so this is the perfect time to set your intentions for who and what you want to be for the next 9 years.
Step 1 — Choose a Future Moment to Look Back From
Pick a date in the future that feels right and imagine arriving there with a sense of steadiness, self‑trust and joy! This becomes the vantage point you’re writing from.
Step 2 — Keep it About YOU
With regards to relationships, keep your focus on you — your growth, your feelings. Manifestation isn’t about influencing a partner, family member, or anyone else to behave a certain way or stay in your life. It’s about aligning with the version of yourself who feels steady, clear, and supported from within. Stay centred on your internal experience.
For example:
“I feel so confident expressing what I need to my partner, and it feels natural and safe to speak openly.”
“I feel genuinely loved and supported in my relationship — he/she is able to give me affection freely, they're taking responsibility for cleaning as much as me and I feel so appreciated.”
“I feel relaxed and secure when I’m with my partner — like my whole body can soften.”
“I feel clear about what I deserve in love, I feel comfortable receiving it, and now I AM receiving it. It feels so.....etc.”
“I feel emotionally met, understood, and valued in the connections I choose.”
And when it comes to business, career, home, car etc — Go BIG!
Step 3 — Let Your Future Self Speak
Time to time travel — write as though the future you is describing all the wonderful things that have unfolded to the you now. Not as a wish-list — but as a lived experience. Let it feel grounded, embodied, and believable. Feel it in your body, in your heart space as true.
And if you're struggling to feel it, just say to yourself: "I am open to the possibility of all this arising for me." Being simply open to it is sometimes safer to the subconscious mind who is scared of what the future may bring, or currently in fight/flight/freeze mode. That simple sentence takes the pressure off, but still leaves you open to the possibilities.
Step 4 — Think on the Below to Deepen Your Story
A turning point where you chose a direction that felt truer to who you’re becoming
Something you committed to consistently — even in small ways — that paid off
A boundary that strengthened your wellbeing more than you expected
A moment where you surprised yourself with your clarity or courage
A supportive habit or practice you now maintain that strengthens your wellbeing
A skill, habit, or quality you developed that you’re genuinely proud of
A place in your life where you now feel more grounded or stable
Something you released that created unexpected space or relief
A way your life feels more aligned with who you truly are
A way of life or being in relationship to self or others that feels so easy now, rather than a struggle
Step 5 — Close With Gratitude
End your page with: “Dear Universe / Highest Source of All, thank you for bringing everything I’ve written here into form. And so it is.”
Feel the gratefulness for all you now have. All you've co-created with the Universe.
Remember, this practice isn’t about forcing outcomes — it’s about aligning your choices, energy, and boundaries with the life you’re stepping into.
