The Bridge of Bone & Stardust: Reclaiming Sovereignty at 28° Capricorn

I. The 6-Planet Alchemy: All Hands on Deck 

On Sunday, January 18th, the sky creates a rare 6-planet stellium. Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Mars are huddled in the final degrees of Capricorn, while Venus and Pluto have just stepped into Aquarius.This is the Baphomet Cipher in action. Capricorn represents the Coagula—the things we have hardened, built, and crystallized (our careers, our reputations, our survival strategies). Aquarius represents the Solve—the dissolution of those old forms to make room for the collective future. Having all personal planets involved means this isn't just a "political" or "spiritual" event. It is an intimate, physical, and psychological "all hands on deck" moment.

II. From Scorpio Truth to Capricorn Structure

Before we can build at 28° Capricorn, we had to survive the Scorpio depths. Our recent work on finding the "Soul's Calling" was the Scorpio phase: excavating the truth, facing the shadow of our self-worth, and realizing that we cannot "earn" our right to exist. If Scorpio was the excavation, this New Moon is the foundation. We are taking the raw, honest truth of our worth (Scorpio) and using the supportive Minor Sextile to Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus to build a structure that actually holds that truth. We are moving from the survival-based "I must produce to be worthy" (Old Capricorn) to "I build because I am a sovereign creator" (New Aquarius).

III. The Collective Mirror: The US/Russia Binary

The internal struggle between our "Old World" (trauma-based survival) and "New World" (soul-aligned sovereignty) is mirrored perfectly in the Russia/US binary. 

The Binary: A dualistic, monotheistic trap where you must choose between two "Gods" of power.

The Reality: Both are structures built on 19th-century colonial trauma and the obsession with dominance.

The Baphomet Way: As the Baphomet holds the torch between the horns, we must hold the space between the binaries. We refuse to let our collective energy be harvested by a "West vs. East" narrative that is just another version of the "Good vs. Evil" dualism that keeps us enslaved.

IV. The American Ghost: Breaking the Survival Loop

The US was settled by people carrying the unprocessed trauma of the Old Continent. They built a "survival-at-all-costs" machine that we now call the American Dream. Under this Capricorn Moon, we recognise that this machine requires the subjugation of our own souls (and others) to function.With the Moon conjunct Pluto, we are being asked to compost this ghost. 

We aren't just "planting seeds" for a better job. We are planting seeds for a different way of being—one that is no longer fueled by the fear of not having enough.
