July 2020 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July 2020

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until July 11th:

The Sun continues to spotlight your solar sixth house. This is a busy period that finds you tending to many different details of your daily existence--your work, various projects, organization around the home and office, your daily routines, and health matters. Your ego may be especially tied up in the work you do, so that you are proud and more creative than usual in your job. You may be in the position to take charge in your work, or to take charge of your health and diet. Sometimes this cycle relates to increased activities involving pets. You seek to perfect your skills or methods now, and you focus on the parts that make up the whole now in order to improve your daily life. As a result, you can be more critical than usual, but this process is necessary for you to sort out what works for you and what doesn't.

From July 12th forward:

The Sun illuminates your seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other. During this cycle, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with your social life, or with those of a partner. The emphasis is on "us" rather than "me".

You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they may also seek out your support and companionship. It's important to include others rather than to go solo for the time being. However, bending too much to the will of another is not advised either. Social interactions of a personal, one-on-one kind are emphasized. Circumstances are such that your diplomacy skills are required. Your popularity is increasing, and is reinforced by your own ability to cooperate and harmonize. Your ego and pride are tied up in how you relate to others now. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one.

Eclipses

A Lunar Eclipse occurs on July 5th:

A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.

This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar twelfth house. Surprises surrounding the compassionate care and attention you give others, as well as the work and service you render, may be in store. Something that has been "in hiding" or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sectors of self-undoing, privacy, and dreams is involved. This could manifest, for example, as a situation that tests your faith and compassion, a culmination or fruition of a service you render, an event that calls on your urge for privacy and reflection, and other such possibilities. Finding a balance between practical concerns and spiritual or non-material matters is what this Lunar Eclipse is about for you.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 26th: 

Venus continues to transit your solar fifth house. Your popularity is on an upward trend during this cycle as others find you especially attractive and friendly. You may have the desire to dress well and in good taste. There is strength in your feelings of love and the power of attraction, which may open the door to new romantic relationships. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Conditions are highlighted in connection with young people, and quite possibly a female child--a stronger bond could be formed during this period. You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!

From the 27th forward: 

Venus graces your solar sixth house now. Establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with co-workers or tidying up your work area comes into focus now. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You're most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. You could find that your talents or skills are especially appreciated. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Mercury continues its retrograde period until the 12th

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 sixth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to work, health matters, and daily routines. Be as non-judgmental as you can with co-workers and/or employees. Re-thinking the suitability of your job is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. Work-related mess-ups can frustrate you, or you might need to redo work that you thought was complete. However, you might find that the refinements you make now will be very valuable later. Double- check your work before submitting it. It's a fine time for researching health and nutrition programs, as well as job skills and opportunities, but perhaps not the best time for beginning all-new programs. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers and health professionals; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

After July 12th, these matters tend to turn around or information clogs clear.

Until the 29th:

Mercury continues to transit your solar sixth house. This is an excellent cycle for improving your skills, objectively identifying your weaknesses so that you can work on them, and for finding flaws in your work methods or approach to daily activities so that you can make necessary changes.

You might be especially focused on list-making and to-do lists, as well as organizing things around you. The need to communicate about your work, health, and other daily affairs, or with co-workers, is especially strong now. Negative expression of this position is worrying about sixth house matters (work, health, pets, and so forth) rather than finding ways to improve these things.

From the 30th:

Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.

Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

This month:

Mars continues to activate and energize your solar third house now. You may be especially busy running errands and tending to daily activities during this cycle. It's a strong time for putting your energy into intellectual projects or studies. You tend to communicate in a more direct manner now, and you might want to be careful that you don't come across as insensitive or abrasive. You may find it too easy to become impatient with others if they seem to be taking up too much of your time, such as with other drivers or with people who are not speaking as directly as you are. Channel your extra energy into mental tasks so that this transit can be highly stimulating (instead of stressful).

Overview Horoscope:

July 2020 Monthly Overview Horoscope for Capricorn:

You're more invested than usual in the success of your relationships this month, dear Capricorn. Negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted in July. Fortunately Venus is now direct, and relating comes more easily than it did in recent weeks. However, keep in mind that you, not others, are in charge of your happiness.

You tend to seek out others' feedback more than usual. However, the Lunar Eclipse on the 5th brings unacknowledged personal needs to the front burner. It can be an important time for checking in with those feelings and desires that you've brushed off or left unfulfilled. You may be surprised by the force of your emotions, and important epiphanies can occur now. Listen to your emotions, but try to keep some of it to yourself until you've sorted everything out.

This eclipse occurs in your sign and is a significant one as it's the final eclipse in a set. The set has been around since 2018, and this particular eclipse is the final nudge towards asserting your independence, understanding your relationship needs, and finding yourself. It’s a powerful period for self-understanding and personal epiphanies. This is a time for finding a balance between independence and togetherness. Your emotions are on your sleeve.

Saturn returns to your sign on the first of the month and will finish up its transit of Capricorn in mid-December. You'll be processing the lessons you’ve learned before going forward with a lighter load and less personal pressure. You might revisit some problems, but it’s a strong time for strengthening the structures and routines in your life. Keep in mind that limitations encountered this month are likely to set you on a new path that is better aligned with your values or more beneficial for you. Aim to be as patient as you can, both with others and with yourself if things are not going the way you expected. Examine what may have been holding you back from sharing yourself with others in healthy ways or forming close alliances.

Until the 12th, Mercury is retrograde in your partnership sector, and you can be sorting out some feelings and frustrations about a person or relationship, after which matters slowly but surely straighten out.

Family life is animated and sometimes challenging this month as Mars transits your home and family sector. You can feel enthusiastic about making changes and improvements to your home or to your domestic life. However, try not to take on too much, as there can be some waning of enthusiasm in these areas experienced in upcoming months.

The New Moon on the 20th points to a stronger urge to merge than usual. There can be opportunities arising to have a fresh start in a relationship. This can be about taking on a new attitude or by gathering the courage to make something happen. Two days later, the Sun enters your intimacy sector, and you're looking to specialize. It's a good period for bonding with someone special or pouring extra energy into a special project or pursuit.

You might also be craving a stronger sense of meaning. Expressing yourself through spontaneous, interesting, and perhaps unusual activities can be especially rewarding in the last week of July. You might seek special moments to detox, relax, and enjoy yourself, and there can be wonderful opportunities emerging as you communicate and connect.
