We all have our biases when it comes to astrological seasons: our favorites, our least favorites, and the ones we might not even know enough about yet.
However, one of the benefits of studying astrology and developing opinions about the zodiac signs is that it is a hands on study, and you will experience firsthand the energy of an astrological season each year as events repeat and the tides change.
This week you get that chance with Capricorn season, as the Sun enters this earthy, practical sign on the 21st. What does that mean for you? Well, it can depend on the energy of your own zodiac sign, your personal circumstances and your plans for the moment.
Everyone is different and that is why we like to investigate what awaits us with the Tarot for a clearer picture that zooms in on your experience (with a personal flair).

Taurus
Queen of Swords (Reverse)
TaurusClarity has never seemed so far away… but why?

Twin
9 of Pentacles (reversed)

Aquarius
Dead
Aquarius embraces change and strange endings, but it’s all very ‘meant to be’.
