DO: Clean Your Home

Full moons are all about release, and just because La Luna may be in prestigious Capricorn, it's still Cancer season — which makes this lunation the perfect time to clean out your space to free up space for all the newness on its way to you.

DON’T: Over-Rationalize

Pragmatic Capricorn has a tendency to favor logic over emotions. But the full moon in the analytical earth sign during emotionally sensitive Cancer season is shedding light on ways we over-analyze. See if you can’t lean on your intuition, too.

DO: Take Your Time

Saturn, aka the time lord, is all about taking the long road, so why not enjoy your journey there? The soft Cancer and meticulous Capricorn energy illuminating this lunation give you permission to move with caution and to take pride in the strides you've made.

DON’T: Forget To Take A Break

With the boss babe energy of Capricorn igniting your ambition, it can be easy to get lost in the motions of hard work. Take much-needed breaks in between projects and implement structures that make break time non-negotiable.

DO: Focus On Long-Term Goals

With Capricorn’s planetary ruler, Saturn, which governs discipline, dominating this full moon, it's a good time to hone in on the long haul. Are you on track to reaching your goals? Check your metrics and center on what needs to be done to get there.

DON’T: Overwork Yourself

The full moon is shining its high beams on the need to set boundaries between your work and personal life. Capricorns often find it hard to separate themselves from their profession, so be mindful of how many hours you put into your work.

DO: Get Out In Nature

La Luna in earth sign Capricorn warrants the ideal time to show appreciation to the wisdom of nature. Visit your local plant nursery or a nearby park. Not only will you express gratitude, but you'll have a chance to center yourself, too.
