Your daily horoscope is here for Saturday! December 21, 2024 marks the official start of the winter solstice, heralding the beginning of Capricorn season that influences each zodiac sign’s horoscope for weeks to come.
This moment is a significant turning point, as in the Northern Hemisphere, we are experiencing the longest, darkest nights of the year and the shortest days with the least amount of daylight. The season offers us a unique opportunity to prioritize our well-being and restore ourselves after previous growth cycles.
While it may feel like things are stagnant, this is simply because there are fewer distractions, allowing us to be more present. With the Sun at its lowest peak of the year, it’s the perfect time to pause and reflect on how you want to intentionally move toward your desired future.
