Lorelei Daily is an opportunity to commune with you for a few moments every dayto share the journey of life, my insights on the daily energies and cycles, and techniques to consciously create your life. Lorelei Daily is a daily dose of 'infectious enthusiasm'.

I believe that EVERY MATCH IS MADE IN HEAVEN, beginning with your relationship with you. Everyone is in your life, on purpose, scripted by your soul, to teach you about you. This includes your spouse, lovers, parents, children, siblings, other relatives, friends, boss, co-workers. You wrote the script and only you can change it.

The Law of Attraction brings you those relationships that have the most to teach you. Every relationship is a mirror. What you see in others that you like is in you; and what you see in others that you don't like is also in you. Your challenging relationships are your greatest teachers. And relationships never die or end; they simply change form. You have written a 'script' for everyone in your life, consciously or unconsciously. If you don't like the 'script,' you can change it!

Astrology is a valuable tool to understand who comes into your life, when and why!

This is the most exciting time to be ALIVE on our planet and it's time for you to have all that your heart desires.

"WE MAKE A LIVING

BY WHAT WE DO,

BUT WE MAKE A LIFE

BY WHAT WE GIVE!"

WINSTON CHURCHILL

We're all aware that 2009 is going to be a year of tremendous change personally and collectively and therefore one bumpy ride. Any progress we make individually, as a country, and certainly as a planet will only come through hard work, and dedication to our plans and goals. Luckily the Universe is giving us one last parting gift before patting us on the rump and sending us off into the New Year.

That gift is this CAPRICORN New Moon, beginning at 7:22am on Saturday, December 27 and continuing until 10:17am on Wednesday, December 31. This is the best New Moon for setting goals, initiating projects and making serious commitments for successful achievement of anything.

Every New Moon represents the end of a cycle and a doorway to the next level. CAPRICORN is the third earth sign, concerned with the responsible management of our resources and collective structures: how we divide up and use the Earth...land, water, oil, mineral and property rights, government, corporations and institutions of all kinds. As the tenth sign in an archetypal cycle of development, CAPRICORN represents the stage where we face and master the challenges of the physical world.

You are learning how to respect limits and boundaries...your own, as well as those of others. You are invited to assume responsibility in all facets of your life and to accept the consequences of the choices you make. Celebrate that you are developing maturity, integrity and autonomy.

You are learning to

BECOME YOUR OWN AUTHORITY, TO BE THE AUTHOR, JUDGE AND CEO OF YOUR LIFE...

rather than blindly following the dictates of your family or culture. In short...

YOU ARE GROWING UP.

If there were ever a New Moon to set your intentions for the year ahead, this New Moon is the time TO DO IT. This CAPRICORN New Moon offers the gifts of focus, stamina and the knowing that real success in any area happens through sustained effort. It is the beginning of monumental personal and collective change because of this New Moon's close quarters to Pluto and Mars, a dynamic duo that adds intensity, passion and drive to your energy. Pluto and Mars together create POWERFUL ACTION, MAGICAL PASSION and TRANSFORMATIVE DESIRES. This potent pair can provide the force to surmount the biggest obstacles when distractions are set aside and attention is narrowly focused.

This CAPRICORN New Moon has tremendous support from Saturn, the planetary ruler of CAPRICORN, now moving through its fellow earth sign of VIRGO. That is pushing you to take responsibility for your individual life, grounding you in practicality and service. Now is the time to dream of how you can be of service to the greater good. Saturn makes terrific connections to Jupiter, the planet of luck and opportunity, and to Mercury, the planet of communication and planning. All that makes this a time for being realistic and clear about your goals.

So, why is this New Moon in CAPRICORN so important? Since New Moons are seed times, you can focus your intentions toward how you want to make your mark in the world. The Universe is calling you to review or determine your life purpose and accept responsibility for its actual manifestation. CAPRICORN represents the initiation of DHARMA, which is an Indian term meaning righteous duty or the proper way to live according to higher law. CAPRICORN wants you to find your true purpose in life.

Many souls, however, feel they do not have much control over even their choice of work, let alone their life direction/purpose. If the understanding of our world is that power and security lie outside of us, then we can naturally feel quite powerless. We can feel battered around by the whims of others, needing to seek and find a way to control things in order to feel secure. CAPRICORN asks you to initiate a more mature approach to your inner and outer relationships, with society and the outer world in general.

While the CAPRICORN New Moon spawns seeds of construction and ambition, with potent Pluto and aggressive Mars newby, there may be serious cleaning up and purging required to clear the way before new projects can get off the ground. Spending more time in preparation for your next major endeavor can be a vital step toward ensuring success.

This CAPRICORN New Moon demands that you turn your focus inward and take inventory. We are in a time of new beginnings on many levels, and those glimpses you have of future possibilities can help you choose what you want to manifest.

Once again, it is time to create your New Moon Wish List. Because this New Moon is in CAPRICORN, it's a powerful time for new beginnings in reaching goals that are important to you. Things you may have wanted to happen in your life for a long time can begin easily manifesting through using the boost of this ORGANIZED and TAKE CHARGE New Moon:

I easily accept responsibility for my situation with _____________.

I am the author and CEO of my life.

I easily demonstrate my competency in _____________.

I listen easily to the authority of my own inner being.

I see life in a way that brings me joy.

In closing, this New Moon in CAPRICORN is a high-powered engine of productivity that can produce extraordinary results for those committed to a conscious path of action. Balancing the drive to reach your goals with a sense of fairness and generosity may not be easy for single-minded individuals. Achievement is most likely to come to you if you recognize that your personal happiness is woven into the fabric of our collective well-being.
