Capricorns everywhere have been coming undone over the past few years. How you see yourself, and your role in this world, has undergone a subtle transformation – a dismantling of who you are, so to speak. This undoing continues in 2018, but now you will simultaneously begin to rebuild who you are by creating a sturdier, more confident, more disciplined you. 2018 is so much more than just another year. It is the year you embark on a whole new life journey that has your signature mark.

We begin the year in Capricorn season – Happy Birthday to you! The first day of the year comes with a powerful Full Moon; it is the Earth’s way of taking a deep breath as this planet experiences another solar return too. You will feel energized and grounded at the start of the year, motivated to pursue your own personal goals and agenda. This will continue into February’s eclipse season, when chapter changes on the horizon see you focused on money matters. How can you invest in the life you wish to cultivate? You will identify the resources required as you leave behind financial commitments and obligations that restrict your ability to invest.

Meanwhile, the spring months bring increased activity on the home and family front. Relocation is possible, along with new home purchases and renovations. As you attempt to nurture your roots, creating emotional comfort as you focus on close loved ones, there may be some minor delays and setbacks. Hold off until the end of April before making any big family decisions. Domestic matters will be resolved as we enter the month of May – a month that brings yet another shift.

As familial activities are restored, recreational pursuits pick-up! A new cycle comes into effect during the month of May, influencing sudden activity around romance, or involving children. A shake-up is in order that may require you to let loose and explore the pleasurable side of life. This is fertile energy too – brainchildren (artistic ideas) along with physical children feature.

As we enter the summer months of 2018, we enter choppy terrain. Cosmic weather will rock our world, courtesy of three eclipses instead of the standard two. Energy builds as early as summer solstice; you will be asserting yourself in financial matters. Whether you are negotiating a salary, trying to sell property, or paying off an old debt, you can expect to come up against severe delays.

Something of value must be surrendered so that you can merge in a partnership – marriage, business, or financial. Such an investment is possible, along with new relationship beginnings. But a hard end to personal resources and security will be necessary. You will be challenged to find a way around setbacks, with progress being made in early September.

The fall months bring calmer days, and networking will begin to take up more time and energy – possibly career related. This will be an influence in effect all year, as you continue to meet new people, and align yourself with different groups and affiliations. A review is in effect mid-October through November that sees you re-evaluating friendships, and your involvement in an institutional setting. If these support groups stymie personal or professional growth, you may be moving on.

By the end of the year, you will be in a low cycle contemplating big decisions in 2019. There may be some back and forth in December, but once 2018 closes, a new influence will be in effect that encourages you to expand and grow from the inside–out. Your journey will soon deepen, dear Goat.

Happy New Year, Capricorn!

I have been saying for a few years now that Capricorns are undergoing a significant transformation. Pluto, the planet of rebirth, has been transiting your sign since 2008, and will continue to do so in 2017. I am sure that at first, you did not really feel the impact of Pluto. The dwarf planet is subtle in its maneuvering, but can bring profound change; just look back at the past 9 years and I am sure that you will be able to see just how much has indeed changed, most notably the structures of your everyday life. As this journey of transforming continues to unfold, you are more than prepared to surrender to it as necessary.
 
The year begins with you deep in thought about your own life’s direction. You sense that there are many wonderful opportunities and initiatives to look forward to in 2017, and you want to make sure that you are intentional when it comes to execution. I don’t doubt that your plans will play out just as they should, especially if you continue to keep an eye on your long-term vision. But right now, your vision might be a little blurred, or you may be considering certain revisions. Give yourself the time and space for considerations; put your plans into motion by month’s end.
 
February, meanwhile, brings a set of eclipses that will further you along your transformational journey. You may decide to walk away from an important commitment – a job, financial agreement, or even an intimate relationship, so that you can begin to pursue new ambitions that focus on education and increased exchanges in your surroundings. Whether you are finalizing a home purchase in a different community, or receiving a student loan to go back to school, a fresh new environment could bring the mental stimulation that you crave. Eclipses in August will propel you into another new life chapter, as you focus on ways to merge and share your personal resources (love, money, time, energy) with something or someone outside of you.
 
The spring and summer months are packed with heightened activity too, especially on the home and family front. Renovation projects, domestic matters, and prolonged family discussions will keep your attention in March and April, and you may not find much resolve until May or June. This could bring some element of abruptness, especially if you are having to care for a family member, or preparing for the birth of a child. Your foundations and emotional well-being may be strained, and you will feel a little on edge. Of course, this will all pass, but adjustments may be necessary.
 
October brings an important shift that sees you joining with new groups, associations, and people of like mind who can further you along when it comes to personal and/or professional goals. Popularity rises as several networking opportunities benefit you now through 2018.
 
The year ends with yet another important shift that sees you getting even more serious about your life’s direction. As you prepare for new chapters in 2018, you may find that your attitude becomes more sobering and disciplined. This should, of course, help you to push forth on your agenda, especially given all the inner digging and questioning that got you to the point of trusting yourself and the decisions you make. 2017 sees you planting more seeds; 2018 sees you reaping what you have sown.

I know a lot of Goats out there who are experiencing sudden emotional revelations, while working to build solid foundations that provide a sense of comfort and well-being. This process hasn’t been easy, and personal transformation remains a theme in 2015. As you continue to tear down walls that hide you from yourself, you are met with an intense need for freedom from family obligations and past conditioning that no longer serve you. This will involve some adjustments, more specifically, being OK with expressing your emotions and not become consumed by them. Thankfully as an Earth sign, you don’t have to worry about being consumed by your emotions. It rarely happens! Actually, you should welcome the opportunity to dig in, and finally release.

Truth be told; this year is going to be an emotional one. I don’t mean that in a bad way, as I’m sure you automatically concluded. I’m just letting you know that a great deal of your time will be spent focused on feelings – from developing inner peace and understanding of what goes on in your subconscious world, to how you experience vulnerability. A good strategy would be to take whatever comes up just one day at a time. Addressing hidden facets of your personality is where you will be tested the most, so go slow and know that you are supported.

Meanwhile, as you begin to get in touch with your inner self, much of 2015 sees you delving into committed projects and joint ventures. Be mindful of where you invest your time, love, and energy, as there will be ample opportunity for you to merge in business or pleasure (avoid signing on that dotted line in January and February, as well as August and September). How this unfolds, however, may be uncertain at different points of the year. Your lifestyle and daily routines undergo some level of disruption from mid-May through mid-June, while work matters hit a snag in September. Be mindful of these trends in order to avoid feeling overwhelmed by all that is being demanded of you. Creating a sacred space for “self” will bring calm during moments of uncertainty, and you will need increased amounts of time to yourself in order to nourish you personal reserves, which need to regular replenishing. This will ensure that you make healthy decisions throughout the year, and if you can take the time to teach yourself such mindful practices (especially in March), you will only benefit.

By the end of 2015, eclipse energy will encourage you to explore unknown terrain. This will be quite timely as your internal search for purpose and fulfillment expands. You are beginning to understand the deeper meaning of your life’s current trajectory, and while yours is a sign that prefers to have a plan in place, the plan should remain flexible as your awareness for all that is possible becomes clearer. You already have the answers that will change your mindset, and you really do have a say in the activities of your life. If you can focus on those systems that enhance your personal development, I can promise you that everything else will magically fall into place.

Happy New Year, Capricorn!
