Overview for this Month: Capricorn (All)
February 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:
There is a considerable and unusual emphasis on your solar second house this month, dear Capricorn, placing a strong focus on the affairs ruled by the second house: money, valuables, belongings, personal possessions, resources, and talents. Your feelings of self-worth also come under the rule of this house, and matters related to your earnings, comfort levels, and sense of security are in the spotlight in February.
Money matters can certainly assume more importance. Money owed might be returned to you, or you might find lost valuables or objects of sentimental value. There can be old problems surrounding ownership resurfacing as Mercury is retrograde in the same sector to the 20th. You could feel incredibly motivated to build a business or project, or you might focus on a desired object/endeavor as your source of inspiration.
The month is potentially excellent for getting your bearings in key ways. You are encouraged to slow down, work things out, draw on patience, and build and develop rather than pioneer and innovate. The sooner you accept this kind of pace, the better the rewards! There can be a stronger focus on personal finances, possessions, resources, and business. Money issues or sources of income may change, or they require some reshuffling. Ultimately, you might find ways to increase your income or your earning potential, or there can be new beginnings with money.
You can be more productive than usual this month, particularly if you focus your energies on works in progress. It may be better to save big launches for later, but do some editing and revising, which can lead to great things. You might enjoy recognition for past work, and there can be important discoveries.
Venus spends the 1-25 in your resources sector, helping to boost enjoyment of your current circumstances and simple pleasures. You're finding more joy in the world of the five senses, appreciating your pastimes and entertainment, and taking special care of prized personal possessions.
At the same time, Mars spends the month in a more outgoing, risk-taking sector of your solar chart--the fifth house. You have more courage to express yourself or your talents and passions. You're ready to jump into action when it comes to managing your creative projects, leisure time, hobbies, and romance. You might decide to resolve a conflict or clarify or explain a matter. While you gravitate to situations that have traditionally worked best for you, you're not afraid to move a little outside of your comfort zone.
Aim to direct excess energy constructively, such as through moderate physical activity. Watch for conflicts that have high ego drives at the root. Tension may result from pressure to perform or meet a goal that is currently too out of reach. It might also be about differences in values and approaches with others.
There's fertile energy with you for reviewing old problems and coming at things from a fresh perspective. You might focus on recycling old ideas, and it can be a valuable process.
Your efforts to improve your money or security position can benefit your work and routines, and even your health. This goes the other way, as well–as you get a handle on your routines and lead a more balanced life, your relationship with money and your self-worth improve. It's a win-win!
The New Moon on the 11th is unique in its strong focus on one sign, and it happens when Venus and Jupiter come together in your solar second house. You can enjoy a special appreciation for recent blessings, and others appreciate your talents. There can be a pleasant feeling of abundance or a stronger drive to enjoy certain freedoms or the fruit of your labor. It's an excellent start to a period in which you're determined to enjoy the moment. Matters related to money, comfort, and taking care of business are in strong focus, with a creative and warm touch. On a mental level, you can be pumping yourself up, especially regarding business or money-related matters.
A Saturn-Uranus square on the 17th is the first of three such aspects. The other two will occur in June and December. With this influence, there can be times when you're battling yourself or money matters, or your desire for security seems to be at odds with your need to branch out. Part of you is focusing on steadying your life, building a sense of security and safety, and managing your resources this year. However, these themes are often at cross purposes with another part of you that wants to take a chance or go out on a limb once in a while!
Restrictions on your explorations can be material or spiritual as you wrestle with a need for security, frugality, and predictability. You'll have time to work through these issues, and you might get started this month.
The Sun enters your communications sector on the 18th, and Venus follows suit on the 25th, bringing on a busier, more connected theme.
You have more courage to express yourself or your talents and passions. Personal changes and improvements may be in focus, but you're also ready to jump into action when it comes to managing your creative projects, leisure time, hobbies, and romance.
The Full Moon on the 27th encourages you to pay attention to your need for more stimulation and connection to the outside world. There might be a sudden desire (or need) to depart your usual routine or do something more refreshing, meaningful, and life-affirming.

Capricorn (Born December 22 to December 31) and Capricorn Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Capricorn:
February 2021 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 17th:
The Sun continues to transit your solar second house. This is the most "financial" period of the year for you. You might have a more materialistic view of life for the time being, or you have an increased interest in your own possessions, during this cycle. You are more attracted to objects and possessions that give you a sense of comfort, status, or luxury now.
You probably should be on the lookout for a tendency to create your own financial stress due to extravagant spending habits. At this point in the year, you are unlikely to take many risks, however, and you can be quite resistant to change. This is a time when "comfort zones" are more important to you than usual--you value the familiar.
From February 18th forward:
The Sun is illuminating your communications sector now, suggesting "busy-ness" and movement. You are exploring and searching, making connections, and paying more attention to your immediate environment. Social interaction is in emphasis during this period, and is, for the most part, light-hearted.
Give other people a little extra time and attention, notice their efforts on your behalf, and strengthen your connections. You are more curious and alert than usual, and you could be quite busy with errands, paperwork, phone calls, and light socializing. Much energy is expended in understanding and adapting to your immediate environment. Siblings, neighbors, close relatives, friends, and co-workers may play a more important role than usual in your life during this cycle.
You are more interested in exploring your own neighborhood than you are of something entirely new. This is not a time of big adventure-seeking! Rather, it's a time of little adventures close to home.
Neither is this a time when you are especially focused. In fact, you could have a finger in many pies right now. You are especially resourceful, and you could find yourself enjoying (or seeking) attention for your intellectual know-how. The ability to express and communicate your ideas is extremely important to you at this time. You are eager to investigate new things, whether scientific or technical.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
From February 1-24:
Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.
From February 25th forward:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from January 30th to February 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications regarding travels, legal matters, or opinions, as well as communications on the job and with co-workers, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It's best not to sign on the dotted line for the time being, especially when it comes to making travel plans or any legal contracts. There could be irritating mess-ups on the job. You might be inclined to miss important details in your paperwork, or might experience frustrating delays that result from co-workers' errors. Travel plans may go awry, or you may have a change of heart.
Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on major decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control. This is an excellent period for review, however.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar fifth house. This brings increased energy and enthusiasm to romance, child-rearing, and creative or recreational endeavors. It can also bring some strife to these areas of your world in some cases. For the most part, however, a romance could pick up pace, you are self-motivated and inspired on creative and expressive levels, and your self-confidence is well-received by others during this cycle. You are more willing to take little risks and you are competitive in a mostly friendly way. In your enthusiasm to take the lead, try to be sensitive to and respectful of others' needs.

Capricorn (Born January 1 to 10) and Capricorn Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Capricorn:
February 2021 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value.
This is the time of year when personal finances and possessions receive maximum attention. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank.
Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, however. If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good.
This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig in your heels and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 9th:
Venus continues to grace your solar first house now. Something about how you present yourself, your image, and your manner boosts your personal magnetism during this cycle. It's a good time to attract who and what you want into your life experience. You're more charming and you are likely to want to attract things to you indirectly rather than forcefully now, perhaps through charm and playfulness. You have a stronger need to be good to yourself, although a negative expression of this placement can be excessive attention to pampering oneself or taking the easy way out. You especially enjoy making a good impression on others, and peace-making. You might also be paying more attention to beauty and style now.
From February 9th forward:
Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here.

Capricorn (Born January 11 to 20) and Capricorn Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Capricorn:
February 2021 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 8th:
The Sun continues to move through your solar first house. You experience a renewal of energy and vitality now, and it's a strong time for increased personal confidence. The emphasis is on self-expression, what kind of impression you make on others, and beginning new personal projects.
You are a little more self-centered than usual, and this is quite natural and healthy as long as you don't take it too far. You are more decisive and forward-looking now, and you put more faith in your own abilities. Physically, you are likely feeling strong. This is an excellent cycle for making personal changes in your manner or appearance, and for any self-improvement endeavors. Personal projects that you begin now are likely to blossom nine months down the road.
From February 8th forward:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value.

You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from January 30th to February 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications regarding travels, legal matters, or opinions, as well as communications on the job and with co-workers, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It's best not to sign on the dotted line for the time being, especially when it comes to making travel plans or any legal contracts. There could be irritating mess-ups on the job. You might be inclined to miss important details in your paperwork, or might experience frustrating delays that result from co-workers' errors. Travel plans may go awry, or you may have a change of heart.
Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on major decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control. This is an excellent period for review, however.
Mercury, while retrograde, returns to your twelfth house on the 8th, and is direct in your twelfth house on the 20th: With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now. It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity. This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures. Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 14th:
Mars continues to activate your solar fourth house. More energy and enthusiasm is brought to your home life, but there can also be a tendency to stir up trouble if you are not careful to channel any excess energy into constructive and productive pursuits around the home. You desire to take the lead, but you should do so in a respectful way so as not to get anyone's goat.
From the 14th forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar fifth house. This is a very self-expressive time when you have lots of energy, but not necessarily self-discipline to match. You have more energy at your disposal to express yourself creatively, through activities with children, romantic activities, hobbies, or sports. Your love life may step up a notch, and this could be an especially passionate time. You tend to put more energy into play and pleasure! Be careful not to burn the candle at both ends. Also, watch out for a tendency to want to gamble. You are more playful than usual, and especially magnetic. You have a likeably competitive, more energetic, and pleasingly assertive temperament during this transit. However, in some cases, you may be coming on too strong or aggressively, or meeting with aggressiveness in romantic relationships.
Overview Horoscope:
February 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:
There is a considerable and unusual emphasis on your solar second house this month, dear Capricorn, placing a strong focus on the affairs ruled by the second house: money, valuables, belongings, personal possessions, resources, and talents. Your feelings of self-worth also come under the rule of this house, and matters related to your earnings, comfort levels, and sense of security are in the spotlight in February.
Money matters can certainly assume more importance. Money owed might be returned to you, or you might find lost valuables or objects of sentimental value. There can be old problems surrounding ownership resurfacing as Mercury is retrograde in the same sector to the 20th. You could feel incredibly motivated to build a business or project, or you might focus on a desired object/endeavor as your source of inspiration.
The month is potentially excellent for getting your bearings in key ways. You are encouraged to slow down, work things out, draw on patience, and build and develop rather than pioneer and innovate. The sooner you accept this kind of pace, the better the rewards! There can be a stronger focus on personal finances, possessions, resources, and business. Money issues or sources of income may change, or they require some reshuffling. Ultimately, you might find ways to increase your income or your earning potential, or there can be new beginnings with money.
You can be more productive than usual this month, particularly if you focus your energies on works in progress. It may be better to save big launches for later, but do some editing and revising, which can lead to great things. You might enjoy recognition for past work, and there can be important discoveries.
Venus spends the 1-25 in your resources sector, helping to boost enjoyment of your current circumstances and simple pleasures. You're finding more joy in the world of the five senses, appreciating your pastimes and entertainment, and taking special care of prized personal possessions.
At the same time, Mars spends the month in a more outgoing, risk-taking sector of your solar chart--the fifth house. You have more courage to express yourself or your talents and passions. You're ready to jump into action when it comes to managing your creative projects, leisure time, hobbies, and romance. You might decide to resolve a conflict or clarify or explain a matter. While you gravitate to situations that have traditionally worked best for you, you're not afraid to move a little outside of your comfort zone.
Aim to direct excess energy constructively, such as through moderate physical activity. Watch for conflicts that have high ego drives at the root. Tension may result from pressure to perform or meet a goal that is currently too out of reach. It might also be about differences in values and approaches with others.
There's fertile energy with you for reviewing old problems and coming at things from a fresh perspective. You might focus on recycling old ideas, and it can be a valuable process.
Your efforts to improve your money or security position can benefit your work and routines, and even your health. This goes the other way, as well–as you get a handle on your routines and lead a more balanced life, your relationship with money and your self-worth improve. It's a win-win!
The New Moon on the 11th is unique in its strong focus on one sign, and it happens when Venus and Jupiter come together in your solar second house. You can enjoy a special appreciation for recent blessings, and others appreciate your talents. There can be a pleasant feeling of abundance or a stronger drive to enjoy certain freedoms or the fruit of your labor. It's an excellent start to a period in which you're determined to enjoy the moment. Matters related to money, comfort, and taking care of business are in strong focus, with a creative and warm touch. On a mental level, you can be pumping yourself up, especially regarding business or money-related matters.
A Saturn-Uranus square on the 17th is the first of three such aspects. The other two will occur in June and December. With this influence, there can be times when you're battling yourself or money matters, or your desire for security seems to be at odds with your need to branch out. Part of you is focusing on steadying your life, building a sense of security and safety, and managing your resources this year. However, these themes are often at cross purposes with another part of you that wants to take a chance or go out on a limb once in a while!
Restrictions on your explorations can be material or spiritual as you wrestle with a need for security, frugality, and predictability. You'll have time to work through these issues, and you might get started this month.
The Sun enters your communications sector on the 18th, and Venus follows suit on the 25th, bringing on a busier, more connected theme.
You have more courage to express yourself or your talents and passions. Personal changes and improvements may be in focus, but you're also ready to jump into action when it comes to managing your creative projects, leisure time, hobbies, and romance.
The Full Moon on the 27th encourages you to pay attention to your need for more stimulation and connection to the outside world. There might be a sudden desire (or need) to depart your usual routine or do something more refreshing, meaningful, and life-affirming.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decan regardless of your birthdate.
