Welcome to January in the membership! This month, we introduce our next seasonal theme, Becoming Crystal Clear, where we begin the year by building clarity, intention, and inner authority (and YES, we’re bringing back a LIVE Vision Masterclass with Desirée - scroll down for the date + time). We are stepping into a new year, a new season, and a time to intentionally build the foundations of who and what you are becoming.

Where Sagittarius reveals the vision, Capricorn commits to building it. This is the season of embodiment, discipline, devotion, and sacred responsibility. If Sagittarius dreams, then it is Capricorn the takes that dream and begins to build the foundations. The blueprint. The architecture. Where the Seeker ranged far and wide, Capricorn then chooses the mountain and begins the steady ascent.

Despite what the feeling of the New Year brings, this is not a season for rushing. This is a season for building power within. Slowly. Steady. With intention, devotion, and fierce grace (our January meditation does exactly this — building energy and power from within). Capricorn is not seduced by urgency, nor governed by the turning of the calendar. The work is not rushing into change but preparation — refining intention, fortifying inner structure, and stepping into a new self-concept with steadiness and grace.

Where the Seeker dreams, the Mountain Queen ascends. She does not rush; she chooses her path with intention, placing each step on the foundation of clarity, power, and purpose.

Rather than rushing into the new, Capricorn season asks us: In the pursuit of dreams, desires and vision, what is worthy of my life force? My time? My devotion? The answers we give here shape the year—and the life—we are building. Power is not in doing more, but in discerning what we are willing to carry, protect, and nurture with unwavering commitment.

Ruled by Saturn, the great teacher of time, Capricorn initiates us into mastery, maturity, and the patient devotion of building steady and strong to create something lasting. This is the season of bones and foundations, of structures both seen and unseen. It is the alchemy of Becoming Crystal Clear—refining who we are, clarifying our desires, illuminating our dreams, and shedding everything that dims our radiance.

This season initiates us into integrity and this is your sacred invitation: enter the new year with clarity, strength, and devotion. Build your life like the mountain herself—unyielding, luminous, and fully alive. The ascent begins now.

Read on for the astrology, archetypes, and energetic themes of Sagittarius season and the key dates shaping our journey through January.


JANUARY + CAPRICORN SEASON: The Mountain Queen. The Architect.

As Sagittarius releases her arrow into the next phase, we arrive in Capricorn — the Mountain Queen, The Elder, the Builder of Worlds. This season is about embodiment, commitment, and giving form to the visions we are dreaming of. Where Sagittarius pulled us toward possibility and horizon, Capricorn draws us downward into the bones of reality, asking what we are willing to stand on, tend, and build.

Where the fire of Sagittarius sought truth through movement and expansion, Capricorn seeks truth through structure, discipline, and devotion. This is the season to turn vision into responsibility, and inspiration into integrity. It asks us not what we dream of but who we are willing to become through time, effort, and care. This is the initiation from possibility into reality, from longing into lived authority.

Let’s explore the Archetypes of CAPRICORN:
