Capricorn week horoscope August 12—18, 2024

Dear Capricorn,

The week of August 12th to 18th, 2024, continues to be an intense period for you, with the fiery Sun transiting through the constellation of Leo and illuminating your 8th house of secrets and intimacy. Thankfully, this week brings some welcome twists and turns that will help alleviate some of the tension from the month’s previous events.

On August 14th, get ready to feel a powerful surge of motivation, thanks to a rare conjunction of energetic Mars and expansive Jupiter in the airy constellation of Gemini. This significant event will supercharge your 6th house of organization, systems, planning, and daily routine with dynamic energy. Although Mars and Jupiter meet relatively often, their union in this sector of your horoscope hasn’t occurred since 1989! This convergence is noteworthy. If you've been dreaming of hitting the reset button on your health, tackling a major clean-up, or giving your home a fresh new look, now is the perfect time. The Mars-Jupiter aspect offers the magic touch for organization, urging you to say goodbye to any clutter or chaos in your life.

It's important to remember, however, that we are currently in the period of retrograde Mercury in the constellation of Virgo, which can complicate matters for Capricorns. At the start of the week, retrograde Mercury resides in your 9th house, gifting you with directness but also cautioning against hasty decisions. Fortunately, August 14th offers a temporary reprieve as Mercury returns to the constellation of Leo, moving into your 8th house of privacy and temptation. Here, it will remain retrograde until August 28th. During this retrograde cycle, it's crucial to adhere to strict rules and exercise greater caution in your communications with others.

Interestingly, as Mercury slowly moves backward through passionate Leo, you may feel an intensified attraction to a romantic partner, whether it's an ex or someone new. Nonetheless, with Mercury in retrograde, your thoughts and judgments might be clouded. In such times, consulting with friends for their perspectives can be incredibly helpful.

Fast forward to August 16th, when strict Saturn in Pisces, your ruling planet, forms a tense aspect with Mars in the constellation of Gemini. This aspect will influence the 3rd and 6th sectors of your horoscope, likely stirring up communication issues with relatives and friends you interact with daily. Be extra mindful and patient in your interactions to navigate these potential challenges smoothly.

Embrace the dynamic energy of this week, Capricorn. With a thoughtful approach and clear-eyed perspective, you can transform complexities into opportunities for growth and improvement.
