THE COLLECTIVE TAROT READ: CAPRICORN SEASON 2024 (DEC 21 - JAN 19)
Capricorn Season is upon us.
Time for big dog business. You’ll thank yourself later ;)
In the tarot, The Devil card represents Capricorn energy. The Devil is not meant to be spooky, evil – or even a sign of coming chaos. If anything it may signal avoidance. Think of this archetype more as a question or test. Where do you need to take back your power?
Is there a bogeyman in your life who’s taken far too much credit for your problems or present reality? Is it time to take on a greater level of accountability?
The artwork on the Devil card depicts two individuals who are chained together. This represents vices, codependency, or an over-reliance on external influences or material things (which may not be inherently bad in the least). The Devil card is about checks and balances.
Are you manifesting your desires, or are there long-standing blocks you’ve been facing?
Are your desires comfortably within your gaze, allowing you to move freely and happily – or are you tirelessly on your tippy toes, hoping to catch a glimpse of a “better” life?
We can and should have our goals, but they shouldn’t have us. They’re just the perks. And the perks don’t make the person.
Time to stand in your power and own your inherent value.
THE DEVIL + YOUR CLARIFYING CARD [Check Your Sun Sign Below]
Accountability | Personal Agency | Manifestation
Earth Signs [Taurus + Virgo + Capricorn]
Nine of Wands: You may have left 2024 the “wounded warrior,” with your share of battle scars. But you fought the good fight - AND came out the other side more empowered than ever. You don’t have to take those trials and tribulations with you, in fact, look forward to a sense of mastery and finally seeing key manifestations appear. You’ve been so resilient and made it look easy, in true earth sign fashion. It wasn’t a quick and painless process, but you handled these obstacles with grace, fortitude – and now you get to reap the long-term rewards of committing to your goals. (To my fellow Capricorns: Happy Birthday, goats!! Time to do your big one.🐐)
Air Signs [Gemini + Libra + Aquarius]
Eight of Cups: You learned a valuable lesson last year that it’s worth it to walk away from things that just don’t feel quite right. That doesn’t mean it was an easy feat, but you were beginning to feel the drag of responsibilities and attachments that just weren’t worth it. What was worth it was freeing yourself. Sometimes walking away is the power move. You’ve reached a new level of self-trust that will only bring you more abundance in the long run. The figure in the 8 of Cups wears a red cloak and shoes as they head in a new direction. Let your passions lead the way.
Water Signs [Pisces + Cancer + Scorpio]
Queen of Cups: What’s stronger than love? Self-love is pushing you in the right direction to manifest your desires. Be willing to be vulnerable, supportive of your truest self, and your heart will expand to its fullest capacity. The Queen of Cups reminds us that flow is the key to a life filled with love. No need to be overprotective or restrict paths to your happiness, when things are coming together for your good no matter what. Trust the process. Trust that your dreams are pointing you in the direction of a life you can have. Then relax and let what is flowing away go, and what is flowing to you arrive.
Fire Signs [Aries + Leo + Sagittarius]
Six of Pentacles: The Devil card and 6 Pentacles means it’s all about balance for you now. Remember, there’s a question mark or test implied with the Capricorn card. Are there areas where your desires are outweighing your well-being? Do you need to reclaim your power and stop being the over-giver? Or maybe it’s time you gained more independence from others? If you’re feeling ready to break free, Capricorn season is giving you the extra boost to take the reins. By spring, your life could look drastically different. But now’s the time to lay out your plan and make the revisions that feel right. You’re in control.

Start 2025 in the driver’s seat. Foot on gas. Apply pressure as needed.
YOUR SELF-CARE GUIDE
The first step to manifestation is getting really clear on your why – then embodying what it feels like to be in that season you’re craving.
Yes, the New Year is an insanely popular time to break out those vision boards. And while it’s good to remember the astrological start of the year is actually spring/Aries season, the winter is a great time to journal and visualize – including with vision boards. Make a virtual board on Pinterest or Canva, or get the supplies for a tangible board. As long as it speaks to your truest desires.
Now is the time to reflect on the past year and cultivate a clear picture of the road ahead. Don’t rush to start everything anew just yet with 101 resolutions. Thoughtfully build the foundation for the year you deserve.
Capricorn energy is about stability and the long haul. A grounded yet determined earth sign. Success that lasts.
WHERE TO WANDER
All that’s missing now is your theme music to go out and get it done.
I find, it’s not always what we do that makes us feel powerful, but the way we do it. It’s a mindset. It’s our energy. And what gets our energy spinning in a new direction better than music?
Even if you were under a rock this past year, I’m sure you still heard Kendrick Lamar blasting from a car, or two, or 300.
The biggest rap battle of all time kicked into high gear when “Like That,” was released. And it feels perfect to revisit during Capricorn season.
Sometimes we need to embody that “it’s just big me” energy. No more standing down.
In case they forgot, remind them. “I’m really like that.”
