It is hard to believe that Winter is finally here, but it becomes impossible to ignore as the temperatures continue to drop and Christmas draws closer and closer.
The upcoming Winter Solstice is a reminder that time isn't just standing still, which is encouraging considering that 2023 is just around the corner.
While it is bittersweet to say goodbye to Autumn until the following year, on December 21, when the Sun is about to enter Capricorn, many people's thoughts will turn to future endeavors and plans.
There are 4 zodiac signs that are likely to be the most affected by this cosmic shift.
When is the Winter Solstice
On December 21, at 4:49 p.m. Eastern Time (ET), the beginning of the Winter Solstice will occur in the Northern Hemisphere. On this day, the Sun will move into the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn.
As this occurs, everyone will be encouraged to work toward long-term goals that are aligned with success, as well as to set their sights on newly discovered structures and disciplines.
Capricorn season is all about actively seeking to refine your intentions and putting together a plan that invites you to effectively begin the process of gradual achievement.
Capricorn will have the most influence, in particular, on cardinal signs, which is to be expected given that all of these signs have Capricorn located in important areas of their birth charts.
