horoscopes january 2023 capricorn

Personal

Your hardworking home planet Saturn is the most ambitious of the outer planets, and as 2023 begins with a harmonious union with airy Aquarius, you’ll be searching to restore a sense of balance most likely involving finances. Capricorn, your life this year is all about doing what you have to do in order to reach your goals. Playing up your unique talents and abilities will help you succeed early this year.

When Saturn moves into intuitive Pisces and your house of communication in early March, the need for security and achievement will start to affect your thought process and how you express your ideas. This transit is calling attention to your need to reflect on the way you try to get your point across, and it urges you to take action to make any necessary adjustments.

There’s a lot of debate about how the mysterious dwarf planet Pluto has been demoted in the past, but this year its influence deserves your attention! Its powerful journey through your determined sign from January to late March (and again as it retrogrades from May to mid-October, then moves direct for the rest of the year) puts you through some dramatic shifts and changes and can cause vulnerability and instability in both your personal and professional lives. In many cases, it will be up to you to take charge and make sure nothing gets too far out of control, especially if no one else steps up.

Love

You take your relationship responsibilities very seriously, Capricorn, and as a new moon rises in mid-February in idealistic Pisces and your house of communication, you’ve got a lot of thoughts and emotions swirling around in that head of yours. While yes, this is a sensitive, forgiving energy that urges you to help keep the peace and avoid confrontation at all costs, this lunation also gives you the ability to communicate intuitively and sync up with your partner on a spiritual level and higher plane. If there’s something that needs to be addressed, you do so in the most loving and compassionate way.

Your practical earth sign might not be the most romantic, but when love goddess Venus partners with emotional water sign Cancer and your relationship zone in early May, you’re ready to ramp up your efforts. You’ll be seeking a harmonious, balanced union with bae now, and you’ll be willing to mise, which is an amazing step in the right direction.

The full moon and lunar eclipse in fellow earth sign Taurus and your expressive house of pleasure at the end of October send you on something of an emotional roller-coaster ride. This is an excellent time to slow down and be patient when it comes to bringing up any new issues in the relationship. You’re definitely more fun and less inhibited than usual, but there are serious things looming in the background that you can’t ignore. Try not to use a shopping spree to mask what’s really going on. Spending money together is fun, but it’s sometimes just a distraction from facing what’s really going on during this lunation.

Career

With your ruling planet Saturn driving your goals and motivation, its position in Aquarius for the first two months of the year gives you a little less control but offers a whole lot more freedom to explore innovative and experimental thoughts and ideas related to your career. Networking will be very important as well, Capricorn, and you’ll want to play up your unique abilities and talents when talking business. As a strict but upwardly mobile Goat, you tend to follow rules and not want to step too far out of bounds, but this rebellious influence has you trying new things and experimenting with different options to find your greatest career-related success.

August. If you’re willing to take the initiative now, you can make some excellent professional contacts. You know what you deserve, but you’re also willing to compromise for the right position. Be sure to let potential employers know that you’re willing to do what it takes to make things work.

The sun shines on your serious, disciplined sign at the end of December, so celebrating your birthday might not be very high on your priority list if you still have a lot of goals and deadlines you want to reach before the EOY. Your work ethic is admirable, but putting yourself last isn’t fair. Your hard work deserves to be rewarded, and what better way to do that than by splurging on yourself? Spending some of that hard-earned cash on something you really want is a fantastic way to wrap up the year.
