What's Your Pouroscope? Capricorn Edition!
Starting December 21st, the Sun enters the Capricorn sign, kicking things off with the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. Capricorn also connects one year to the next, encouraging us to self-reflect in the first half of the season, and then use those insights to guide us through the new year. As you learn from the past and prepare for the future, we’ve got you covered with a collection of star sign inspired wines. Check them out below, along with our new Capricorn Season playlist on Spotify, where you’ll find a stellar collection of tunes to keep you bumpin’ all month long.
Aries
As the year comes to an end, you may find yourself having quite a few late nights at work. While a little extra spending money is always welcomed, especially this close to the holidays, make sure you’re setting clear work-life boundaries so that no one is taking advantage of you. Start thinking of some long term goals. Once the new year hits, you’ll be at your most productive.

Taurus
With the Sun gleaming in your ninth house of adventure and travel, you’re ready to reconnect with the world. Whether you’re researching your next big trip for 2024, or taking advantage of the off-season to plan a retreat near the shore, you’re looking forward to expanding your horizons in the coming year. You’re also more likely to take risks, especially once Jupiter rights itself, which will leave you feeling lucky for the next six months.

Gemini
While everyone is feeling the holiday spirit, you may find yourself feeling a little broody and pensive. Instead of celebrating the holidays with extended family or at a party with acquaintances, you’re better off keeping things small and intimate with your partner or closest friend. Use this time to get a little introspective and really hone in on what your desires are, which will give you the upper hand in the new year.

This season you may discover some unexpected information about your relationships, whether they be business or personal, that’ll have you reevaluating your bonds. As you consider how to move forward, lean on your ride-or-dies for support, especially with the Sun being at the furthest point from you.

Leo
After all the fun you had last season, you’re in the mood to decompress and enjoy each day as it comes. You’ll find yourself putting a limit on indulgences, especially if they’re extremely unhealthy. If you start practicing healthy habits now, you’ll have a head start for when the new year begins. Lean on others for support, as it can be especially hard to stick to your guns around the holidays.

This Capricorn season you’re feeling extra festive! You’re ready to be the life of every holiday party, and go all out on gifts to show how much you care about the people closest to you. Not only are you at your most outgoing, but you’re ready to share your passion projects with the world. Just make sure to wait until the new year, once Mercury retrograde is over.

Libra
With the Sun gracing your fourth house of domesticity, you’re looking forward to hibernating for the season. Instead of RSVPing to all the holiday parties, you’re content to spend time cuddled up under blankets, enjoying a quiet holiday. Host a small intimate gathering for the people closest to you, exchanging small tokens of appreciation, over a glass of whisky.

Scorpio
Communication is key this season, Scorpio! While you love keeping things to yourself until you’re ready to break, this is the perfect time to air out any grievances you may have. And with the Sun in your third house, bringing attention to your relationships with a neighbor or sibling, saying what’s on your mind will only help those bonds become stronger and last longer.

Sagittarius
It’s time to prioritize Sagittarius! As the Sun provides you some much needed grounding energy, start considering what you’d like to spend your money, time, and energy on in the coming year. While you shouldn’t make any commitments until Mercury retrograde ends, having a game plan going into the new year will help you keep in mind what’s most important to you.

Happy Birthday Capricorn! Although the first couple weeks of your season will be slow going, with both the holidays and Mercury in retrograde, you’ll find yourself enjoying being in the moment. Things at work may still be hectic as the year comes to an end. Make sure you take time for yourself instead of biting off more than you can chew.

Aquarius
It’s time to wind down Aquarius. While everyone else is thinking about their goals for the coming year, and preparing to start 2024 on the right foot, you’re ready to curl up and keep your head down for the next four weeks. Focus on healing yourself emotionally and spiritually, and consider distancing yourself from others who bring negativity into your life.
