The Week Ahead for Capricorn
Monday, August 3rd – Sunday, August 9th
Venus reaches the highpoint of your solar chart bringing her blessings to all things related to your career and life-goals. Venus will go to and fro in this area over the next few months, giving you plenty of time to make headway. Love also becomes a priority, whether you start a new romantic relationship, set a love affair on a long-term footing or people who admire you give you a hand up the ladder of success. This is also a good period for property matters and for acquiring money for your business and personal endeavours. Use this small window of opportunity to make big progress.
A window of opportunity.

Monday, July 27th – Sunday, August 2nd
It’s not every day that you get a full moon flanking a Jupiter-Pluto opposition, so take the opportunity to do something that will carve its signature on your life. Maybe that’s a tad overblown, but it is better to harness these powerful influences rather than sit back and wait to see what they do. Mountains are moved under such stars. Technically, we’re in the area of finances, so you have an opportunity to make money, whether that means investing capital with an eye to gains in the future or dealing with a monetary problem before it gets too big to handle. As always with Jupiter-Pluto combos, think: boom-bust.
A week of extremes.

The Month Ahead for Capricorn
August 2026
The big question is how much are you prepared to invest in a project or commitment that has life-changing potential? The cosmic focus is firmly on finance with some Capricorns coming into money and others digging deep into their coffers, whether for unexpected expenditure or a major investment. And even if money isn’t the target for August’s spectacular alignments, you will emerge enriched from your experience. A journey is also part of this month’s astral agenda, and especially on or near the 28th, expect to be taken where you didn’t mean to go!

The Year Ahead for Capricorn
A full moon within days of the New Year sets the tone for 2026. It is a year in which there will be many endings but also some glorious beginnings. Jupiter continues to bring good people into your life, whether for business, friendship or romance, and it is the year of marriage for many Capricorns… There is a strong focus on family too and on finding your roots whether that means tracing your ancestry or getting a (new) home. And in the process of a home move or a family gathering information could surface that casts a new light on the past.
