The Week Ahead for Capricorn
Monday, May 18th – Sunday, May 24th
If you have been putting off making a certain move, especially one that could change an aspect of your existence, it can no longer wait. Time has run out and if you want to have control of the situation you’re going to have to get on board the train of change as early in the week as possible. Otherwise, you’ll be responding to events, not in charge of them. This could be an entirely positive few days with welcome breakthroughs but it could also be a period when events and other people take you in a direction you neither expected nor wanted.
Get on board the train of change.

Monday, May 11th – Sunday, May 17th
May’s new moon often comes at a time when you are on a break and enjoying the pleasures of life, or at least thinking about them. But this year is different. It’s not that you cannot take time out or have fun, more that the overall cosmic pattern is fractious – if you can put such a human emotion on the cosmos! Maybe you can sense change in the air and are either excited or fearful about it. On the other hand, you may be already dealing with circumstances that have been thrust upon you. The one thing you cannot do is turn back time. Your focus should be on the future.
Making the most of what you’ve got.

The Month Ahead for Capricorn
May 2026
Bringing beautiful things into being is the theme for May. It’s a month when affairs of the heart and doing what makes your heart beat faster are to the fore. It’s not a month without challenges – keep your cool on or near the 5th and 25th – but it is a period when you seem to be luckier and people go out of their way to show their appreciation of you and your efforts. The end of the month is the ideal time to make a commitment of the heart or to sign up to a long-term agreement yet it is not without its surprises and twists in the road. There is a reason for everything…

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.
