12 Things to Do When the Sun Transits Capricorn

Each time the sun moves into a new sign, make a To Do list that fits the sign and house the sun is transiting. During the Sun’s transit of Capricorn, you might find a few of these things automatically appearing on your list.

1. Write a personal mission statement
2. Have a bone density test
3. Read the biography of someone you admire
4. Work with crystals
5. Get your watches cleaned and replace the batteries
6. Spruce up your “serious” clothes
7. Observe a construction site or stone masons at work
8. Lay out a “business plan” for yourself
9. If you haven’t already, establish your boundaries
10. Take a tour of the monuments and statues in your town
11. Send a letter (not an email) to a local government official with your compliments or concerns. (I was told by someone in the know that real letters still get high priority).
12. Have some conversations with wise elders

And one more to chew on…take care of those pearly whites!

Calcium is ruled by Saturn, so our bones and teeth are two things to pay attention to during transits of Capricorn. If you’ve missed those bi-annual teeth cleaning appointments, now’s the time!

If you’re feeling like your teeth have little sweaters on them, hie thee to the dentistry and get those beauties back in shape.

We can’t all have perfect teeth, but we can take care of the set we’ve got. We can’t have that grill work bringing down the kilowatts of that million dollar smile.

When I asked my dentist about whitening products several years ago, he told me the best bang for the buck was Crest Whitestrips. In two weeks’ time, you’ll have a much brighter smile. I took his advice and it made a huge difference. It’s time to do it again, though, and I’ve got the strips sitting in front of my monitor on my desk. Just a few minutes a day, and this big mouth of mine can be glowing in the dark again. What better time than now?

Other Tips:

• Get a new toothbrush every few months. You can get a package of 5 or 6 at the Dollar Store. That’s a bargain. Keep them on hand for guests.
• Use a tongue cleaner. It removes that gunk that is essentially plaque.
• Floss
• Wash your toothbrush with soap and water or run alcohol or hydrogen peroxide over it every few days.  Think of all the germs! This is especially important when you have a cold. Get a new toothbrush after a cold.
