The Winter season is officially from December 21st - March 19th. The Winter Season includes three zodiac signs, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. It is the time of year when we focus on our ambitions, ideals, and imagination. This post presents an overview of the tarot cards of the winter season. It will also also go over zodiac signs and the minor and major arcana tarot cards of the time.


Capricorn is the zodiac sign that starts the New Year. It is during the time of Capricorn that millions around the world make resolutions. When the sun and moon are together in a sign (conjunct) it signifies a new moon. New moons are great for setting intentions or making resolutions. I set intentions influenced by the zodiac signs every new moon.

Capricorn is the season's cardinal sign. Cardinal is about initiating and taking action. The sort of action one takes towards realizing ambitions and goals. Capricorn is about accomplishments and success. In Capricorn there is a determination to manifest things in physical reality.


Aquarius persists

Aquarius is the season's fixed sign. Fixed is about continuity and persistence. The sort of persistence it takes to be innovative in our approach to life. Aquarius is about being unconventional and working to create an ideal society. In Aquarius there is an interest to make radical changes for the good of all.


Pisces adapts

Pisces is the season's mutable sign. Mutable is about adapting to change. The sort of change that is necessary when we are in pursuit of a dream. Pisces is about moving beyond the routines of everyday life into our imaginations. In Pisces there is a need to be connected spiritually.


The cycle of initiating, persisting, and adapting starts all over again in the Spring. The signs of Spring are Aries, Taurus, and Gemini.
