Sun Enters Capricorn (December 21, 2025)
To Become a Star
There are Four Corners in your journey round the Sun,
Four sacred turnings as Earth rolls and sweeps,
A dance of Light and Shadow
Seasons of birth, life, death, and rebirth
Spiraling year after year upon this living Earth.
The Sun stands still
and the world holds its breath.
Shadows stretch,
the light grows faint,
and we wait for a sign
a whisper of hope
that life and light will return,
that our path will once again
be bright and beautiful.
Now, at the final turning of the Astrological Year,
We cross from Sagittarius into Capricorn
It is a time to bow our heads,
to kneel in gratitude
for the Eternal,
to the everlasting light
that shines through every one of us,
and through all the realms of Creation.
Now, at the wheel of life’s great turning,
We meet the Four Questions again,
The compass points of every soul:
Who am I?
Who are you?
Where do I come from?
Where am I going?
At this sacred threshold,
Let these questions be lanterns
As you walk your path today.
You stand at a crossroads,
The air thick with possibility:
Which way to go?
What path is right?
What is my destiny?
Capricorn whispers:
“Do you know your Destiny.”
Those who understand,
hear the wisdom of the ancients,
and know that “Character sets your fate.”
By word and deed,
you have made yourself.
Day by day, life after life,
you have learned from mistakes
by failing, falling, rising again,
by learning what not to do,
and how to do better,
you have become a better you.
This is the Law of Karma:
the universe held by cause and effect
and whatever you sow, so shall you reap.
But what does this mean?
Your life is not fated
it is forged by you,
in the crucible of how you live.
What is before you today
was set in motion before;
the future you will meet tomorrow
is being made by your conduct today.
Capricorn’s wisdom is this:
You are responsible
for what you were
and what you will become.
Not fame, not fortune, not power
but by remaining true to yourself,
holding to the path of Self-Fulfillment.
Your worth is forged
by being a better you,
day after day.
As you master yourself,
As you come to know your truest nature,
So too does your life align
With the music of the light sublime.
Self-awareness is the gift divine
A flame that shapes character.
No longer tossed by wild passions
Or scattered by the world’s distractions,
You become a steadfast soul,
No longer a pawn of fate,
Forever a one of the One,
Self-luminous seeker on the Path of Perfection.
And you know this truth:
You have grown in stature
by a deepening compassion and caring.
Because you learned from your own struggles,
You truly feel the suffering and pain of others,
And your heart will shine ever brighter
With selfless love to help them too.
For you could not, nor could you ever,
Have done this Great Work alone.
You are part of a host of souls
Some here with you today,
Many more stretching backward,
into the mists of long, long ago.
Like a great ribbon of light,
All the souls who helped make you
Are with you now.
Part of your character, forge of your wisdom,
Brightly shining in your compassion too.
This is why we give thanks
to those who came before,
To those with whom we journey now,
And to those who will continue this work
after our time is done.
You are part of this Great River,
a Hierarchy of Life and Love.
As you reach up for help from someone above,
You extend your hand to those who follow behind.
This is the way of Spirit,
This is the Truth of Love.
This is the pledge and purpose of Capricorn:
Our path of Fulfillment,
made possible by the spark of the Divine within,
And the great work of Creation made by us all, through love.
And that is why today we bow, give thanks as we pray:
THE GREAT INVOCATION
From the point of light within the Mind of God
Let Light stream forth into our minds
Let LIGHT descend on Earth.
From the point of love within the Heart of God
Let Love stream forth into our hearts
May LOVE increase on Earth.
From the center where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide our wills
The PURPOSE which the masters know and serve.
From the center which we call Humanity
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door
where evil dwells.
Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.
