The Week Ahead for Capricorn
Monday, August 24th – Sunday, August 30th
Lunar eclipses, like all full moons, bring matters to a head. They also close chapters in preparation for new ones to begin. Friday’s eclipse cuts across the axis of travel and communications so information reaching you could act as the catalyst to an ending and a beginning. A journey could also prove to be a game-changer, whether in the literal way of travel or in figurative terms. And while eclipses should always be approached with a level of caution, they can inspire wonderful events that provide a sense of closure and completion.

Monday, August 17th – Sunday, August 23rd
Capricorns do not do well in a blurry world. You need to see where you’re going and what exactly lies in front of you. Unfortunately, when Mars and Neptune get together, life acquires an indistinct aura. Maybe you need to take a more compassionate view of a situation or perhaps you’ve been running yourself into the ground and require some rest and respite. On the other hand, what strikes you as out of character with someone or not in keeping with your perspective on a matter could be a sign of something more serious. Pay attention.

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.
