illustrated by Lili Emtiaz

The Moon in down-to-earth Capricorn connects with wildcard Uranus at 5:01 AM and then with Saturn, the planet of commitment and boundaries, at 5:33 AM—these are two very different planets! Adventure is on the way, yet there is still a grounding and anchoring energy in the atmosphere. We’re in the mood to take risks, but with the Moon in Capricorn’s influence, we’ll all be pragmatic about it.

All Times EST.
