Capricorn

August 2026

Capricorn is working very hard right now. With Mars in your sixth house, there may be extra work dumped on you or you decide to roll out something new in your career. There may be some disagreements with co-workers and you may be a tad impatient in terms of getting things done. You work hard and you expect others to work as hard as you do. It is also time to take care of your body. This area of the chart is one that is often associated with the body. Time to get everything checked. Go to the eye doctor and see about new glasses or find the best chiropractor that understands your physical well-being. You can decide now to start walking every day or do something to move the body. Be careful. Mars can sometimes go overboard and you do not want to start out at 100 and get a boo-boo. After the 12th Mars moves on and enters your seventh house and the sign of Cancer. The seventh house is one that is all about love, marriage and romance. If you are single, then you are ready for love. You want to date someone and find someone new. You yearn for couple-hood. If you are married, then you want to make time for you and your spouse to be together. There may be some differences of opinion as Mars is very opinionated, but it is a beautiful time for the two of you to work on some project together once you get on the same page. Watch out though, the seventh loves beautiful things and treating yourself well. There may be impulsive purchases that you later regret. Watch those credit card purchases but still find a way to be good to yourself. Make plans with friends, invite people over to celebrate something. Enjoy your social life. 


Venus is also on the move this month. It stays in Virgo for the first week of August but then it moves into Libra and your tenth house of work. Lots of times Venus brings blessings and gifts wherever it goes and it is going into your career area. You could get a raise or promotion. Maybe some kind of recognition or honor. Be bold and go after the big client or speak up in meetings. Now you will be listened to and your ideas respected. This is an area of leadership and so people will be ready to follow your lead. As if all that is not enough, you have Jupiter and the Sun holding hands for much of August. Good financial decisions and positive outcomes.
