Capricorn Weekly Horoscope

WEEK OF January 16 – 2 2, 2023

Life may have felt like a comedy of errors ever since Mercury turned retrograde in Capricorn on December 29, throwing your thoughts and words into a tailspin. Or maybe your compass has been spinning wildly, despite your efforts to choose a best direction. Take a moment to get grounded this Wednesday, January 18. Not only is Mercury resuming direct motion, but it’s powering ahead through Capricorn until February 11. Focus like a laserbeam and identify the top one (okay, three) goal(s) you want to set in motion for 2023. Then, use the next few weeks to get your strategy nailed and your action steps defined. This phase of the game should involve a giant whiteboard, conference calls with consultants and power pitches with prospective collaborators and clients.

Healthy financial flow is a top-of-mind concern for your stability loving sign, but with birthday season rallying on since December 21, maybe you’ve loosened up some of your budgetary restrictions (potentially to Kim and North levels). Well, here’s hoping you spent your “discretionary income” in enjoyable ways, Capricorn. Starting Friday, January 20, you’re going to have to tighten up that belt again as el Sol bids your sign farewell and heads into Aquarius and your second house of finances until February 18. Don’t freak out if your bank balances are lower than you’d like and your credit card statements the opposite. Just call it a “market correction” and get back to the business of earning more than you’re burning. With team-spirited Aquarius governing this part of your chart, look to collaborations instead of trying to earn every penny by the sweat of your brow. You may find an elegant way to monetize something you’ve been offering people for free, like your sage wisdom or an object that everyone’s always borrowing from you.

On Saturday, January 21, the new moon in Aquarius kicks off a six-month cycle of prosperity, and even more opportunities start popping up. While your industrious sign doesn’t mind putting in long hours at the office, some tasks may be zapping more time than you care to admit. Now’s the time to reconfigure. If you’ve gained a new level of mastery, increase your rates. Transform draining one-on-one services into group offerings. Since Aquarius rules the digital realm, maybe it’s time to transmit your knowledge via webinars, podcasts, and downloadable products. Outsourcing the “plug and play” tasks might also open up time for you to spend on developing profitable, premium offers.

You’re no stranger to stalking opportunity—and 2022’s Water Tiger brought you plenty of chances to do just that. But the Law of the Jungle is not going to bring you the same success starting Sunday when the gentle, cooperative Water Rabbit takes charge for a year. So what to do? Try the Law of Attraction instead. Rabbit is an abundant creature, but it multiplies through its inherent creativity and communal nature. Get thee to networking, Capricorn, because this is the year to grow stronger together.

Also on Sunday, shock-jock Uranus wakes up from a retrograde that began on August 24. With the radical planet powering forward through your fifth house of passion, wild expression and romance, you could leave a few jaws on the ground in 2023. But hey, Capricorn, you’d never break from protocol just to get attention. This is about blazing trails and leading the way for others who may be struggling with their own full-bodied self-expression. Being a role-model never looked so…influential. But brace yourself: This storyline may come with more dramatic arcs than you’ve anticipated.
