2010 Horoscope: Capricorn

 

January, 2010

What a month, Capricorn! January always finds you working hard, both on your career and on yourself, but this month will be the topper! Four planets will spend much of January in your own sign and your house of personality, bringing out all your famous Capricorn qualities: duty, respectability, responsibility, and, most important, the determination to keep every promise you make. Don't beat yourself up if you can't do everything before the 15th, though. Mercury will be retrograde until then, making it difficult for even the best-made plans to work out. Until then, rely on another of your qualities: patience. 

 

February, 2010

Pluto's presence in your sign and house of personality has been affecting you for months - years, even, Capricorn - and it's far from over. In fact, since this powerful God of the Underworld will meet up with Jupiter, the King of Mount Olympus, you'll have two of the heaven's most powerful allies on your side. They'll meet up officially on February 6, but well before and after that, you'll be able to chat anyone up, thanks to Jupiter in your house of communications, and Pluto's ability to attract anyone. Careful - you may end up with too many admirers. 

 

March, 2010

Your month will be split in half, Capricorn, divided by two astrological packs who'll demand nothing less than all of your determined Earth Sign energy. From the 1st on, you'll be focused on helping out with the affairs of siblings, neighbors, and long-time friends. Once the 7th arrives, however, with loving Venus' passage into your house of home and family matters, you'll be able to ease up and enjoy life. That will go double after the 17th, when a parade of planets in Aries will charge through that same house, absolutely demanding your attention - and some relaxation!

 

April, 2010

Ever heard of "power-naps," Capricorn? If not, ask a Fire Sign friend - an uncontested authority on the subject. The idea is to grab a few good, uninterrupted moments of shut-eye whenever you can on a busy day. You'll have plenty of those this month, thanks to three planets in Taurus, the hardest-working sign in the Star Business. They'll be passing through your house of love affairs, however, so you won't have to worry about "busy" equaling "working too hard." In fact, you won't think about work until Venus enters Gemini on the 25th, and then, somehow work will become fun

 

May, 2010

You'll be in the mood to travel now, Capricorn - that's for sure. Whether you decide to travel long-distance or just take a few days off for a long weekend in the vicinity - well, that will be the worst decision you'll have to make besides whether or not you'll want to go alone or bring your sweetheart along. Once Mercury turns direct on the 11th, it will be a lot easier for you to get in contact with the one you care for, so you'll probably want to go with them. Extend the invitation, and expect it to be accepted.

 

June, 2010

Something is about to change - Big Time - in your home and family life, Capricorn. Oh, but not to worry - this will be one of those changes that brings you joy, and lots of it. Big-hearted Jupiter will set off for your house of home, family, and emotions on the 6th, wearing Aries, the hottest sign in the Zodiac. Two days later, he'll contact startling Uranus, too, so all changes will occur under most unpredictable circumstances. And then there's the Lunar Eclipse that will illuminate your relationship axis on the 26th! Whew! Better rest up while you can

July, 2010

Career just so happens to be your most famous specialty, Capricorn, so hearing that you're about to begin a two-and-a-half-year concentrated course in that life department won't bother you at all - especially since the instructor will be Saturn himself, your very own planet. This professional guy will enter your house of career on the 21st, all done up in Libra. Now, this sign just loves to work with a partner, so if you're thinking about a partnership and all conditions are right, it's time to stop thinking and do it now! 

 

August, 2010

Pluto's long-term trek through your house of personality and appearance has made you even more of a powerhouse than you were before, Capricorn - which is really saying something. You've always been the "take-charge" type, ready to do your job and at least three others, and to do them well. Speaking of Pluto, he'll meet up with expansive Jupiter on the 3rd - and Jupiter is no slacker himself. The two will make you feel as if you have super powers! Oh, and when Saturn - your own planet - joins the party on the 16th - well, you'll be virtually unstoppable! 

 

September, 2010

Happy news, Capricorn! On the 12th, Mercury will put an end to his three-week retrograde and finally turn direct in your house of long-distance places and people. So, that person you've been trying desperately to find? Go ahead and start looking again, online or via old friends. You'll finally stop hitting walls and find some good, solid leads. Once you do find them, keep in mind that excessive Jupiter and Uranus, who don't know the definition of boundaries, are traveling together in your house of communication, so trying to hold back from saying absolutely everything on your mind just won't work. 

 

October, 2010

Three planets in balance-loving Libra will tiptoe through your house of career this month, Capricorn, all of them demanding (nicely) that you either create or accept a job that will make you happy. It may be time for you to make some serious changes in your professional life - but that won't be a problem, because once the 8th arrives and Venus turns retrograde, you'll be more than willing to change lots of things, including the type of people you spend your days with. The Moon in Gemini (and your house of work) from the 25th through the 27th will seal the deal. 

 

November, 2010

You'll probably spend the first week of the month with old friends, Capricorn, and one of them could make you a wonderful offer - a business offer - the kind that you may be able to turn into a wonderful career move. Venus, the goddess of not just love, but also money, will move into Libra and your house of professional matters on the 7th - but take your time. Have someone you trust who knows the business look over the fine print first. The time to act is after the 18th, when both Venus and Jupiter, the King of Wealth, turn direct. 

 

December, 2010

You're one of the most organized signs in the heavens, Capricorn, whose pet peeve is plans that don't come together the way they should. Fortunately, you pride yourself on always having Plan B ready. That will come in handy during the first half of the month, as communicative Mercury slows down to turn retrograde - in your sign! - on the 10th. This may wreak havoc on at least some of your plans, but you'll recover, and by the 18th, when Mercury slips into your house of privacy, you may even appreciate those missed appointments. They'll give you some much-needed time to yourself!
