The New Moon in Capricorn marks a time of ambition, structure, and disciplined beginnings. Capricorn, an Earth sign ruled by Saturn, encourages us to lay the groundwork for long-term success, particularly in career, stability, and personal growth. This is a potent time to set goals that require persistence and practicality. The Seed of Life grid is perfect for anchoring these intentions, as its sacred geometry fosters creation, expansion, and focus.
For this grid, we’ll use Black Calcite as the centre focus stone to ground and support your goals while calling in the transformative energy of the New Moon.

Focus stone
Black Calcite is chosen for its grounding and transformative energy, making it ideal for Capricorn’s earthy and determined influence. Positioned at the centre of the grid, it helps you release past patterns and focus on building solid foundations for the future. Its connection to Capricorn energy encourages persistence and resilience.
Surrounding stones
Green Tourmaline forms the first layer around the Black Calcite. It aligns with Capricorn’s need for growth and stability, promoting balance and prosperity. This crystal enhances vitality and helps you channel your ambitions into productive action.
Citrine brings the energy of abundance, optimism, and manifestation, creating the second layer of surrounding stones. Its warm, solar energy complements Capricorn’s steady drive by adding a boost of confidence and creativity to your intentions.
I was also drawn to adding Quartz to supercharge the grid.
Intention stone
Garnet, placed on the outer points of the grid, is perfect for this New Moon phase. Known for its energising and grounding properties, it amplifies Capricorn’s determination and focus. It’s also a stone of commitment, helping you stay aligned with your long-term goals.
Complementary stones
Labradorite adds a touch of magic and intuition to your grid, balancing Capricorn’s practical energy with inspiration. It protects your energy and helps you remain open to new possibilities as you work toward your goals.
Amazonite brings harmony and calm, ensuring that Capricorn’s disciplined energy doesn’t lead to overwhelm. It also encourages clear communication and authenticity, helping you express your intentions effectively.
Protection stone
Shungite, placed at the perimeter of the grid, offers powerful protection against negativity and helps maintain focus by absorbing distractions. Its connection to the Earth anchors Capricorn’s grounding energy, ensuring a stable space for manifestation.
Arranging your crystal grid
- Begin by cleansing your crystals and the area where you’ll set up your grid.
- Place the Black Calcite in the centre of your Seed of Life grid.
- Surround it with Green Tourmaline in the first layer, forming a circle.
- Add Citrine stones in the second layer, creating another circle.
- Position Garnet stones at the outer points to set your intention.
- Interspace Labradorite and Amazonite and any other stones you’re guided to use throughout the grid for added balance and inspiration.
- Place Shungite stones along the outer perimeter for protection.
Activating your crystal grid
Once your grid is arranged, activate it by tracing the lines of the Seed of Life pattern with a clear quartz wand or your finger. As you do this, visualise your intentions taking root and growing strong, supported by Capricorn’s grounded energy and the New Moon’s transformative power.
