Overview for this Month: Capricorn (All)
The month ahead is one of diverse themes, dear Capricorn, but perhaps most importantly, you’ll feel that you’re moving forward in May. This comes as a relief after the rather stuck, "in limbo" feel of April. May is a month of more clarity in your home life or with living conditions and arrangements, as well as your romantic life. There is a strong focus on both work and play this month. Recreation, romance, creativity, hobbies, and children can be sources of more pride nd involvement with these areas of life increases.
Mars rips through your sector of work and health all month, revving you up and motivating you to take care of business. This influence also brings more muscle to your health and wellness or self-care programs - if you’ve been putting off going for a check-up or slowing down on fitness, this is a time for getting back into action. You want to take charge. At times, the need to initiate, lead, and work independently can stir up competition or conflict with others, so do what you can to either tone things down a little or prepare yourself for a battle or two, depending on which you prefer!
The 9-10 can bring sudden or unexpected social activity and epiphanies. You may be liberated from a household responsibility, for example, or a friend appears almost out of nowhere wanting your company or help. Alternatively, this can be a time for discovering your feelings about a friendship or project. You’ve been quite preoccupied with your personal life and work these days, and now you're being pulled out of your routine, nudging you towards a better balance. The Full Moon now is a reminder that giving back is rewarding.
The 11th, 16-17, and 28th are more challenging dates that require you to muster up patience. You've been experiencing increased desires or prompts to communicate, connect more spontaneously and openly, and share your ideas, but there are times such as these where insecurity can undermine this. Do what you can to deal with possible fears of leaving yourself vulnerable. Toughening up on this level takes time and steady mini-challenges wherein you challenge yourself to face your fears on a small scale.
However, one of the year’s star influences peaks this month and involves your ruler, Saturn, which gets fantastic support from Uranus. You first met this aspect in December, and it will continue to back you up until November. This is a time for updates, steady progress, and improvements - changes that don’t destabilize you, in other words. There can be opportunities to make an alternative setup work, perhaps related to your home life as Uranus is a long-time guest in your home and family sector. Living conditions and family relationships improve with more steadiness and security, yet still manage to maintain a spirit of openness and progress. Money and health matters can also improve. Here is a chance to put structures or new rules into place that don’t entirely impinge upon your freedom In fact, with some buckling down, you'll better enjoy your free time.
The New Moon on the 25th brings power to your work and health sector (even more so) and encourages you to improve your habits and begin fresh with your routines. However, it occurs close to a Mars-Saturn opposition, exact on the 28th, and you’ll likely have to buckle down and make some compromises before you start brand new endeavors and strive towards your resolutions. Where you’ve been overdoing or pushing too hard, you now need to draw up limits and follow some rules. This aspect occurs along your health and service axis in the background of your chart. Aspects that are in the foreground are generally considered more challenging because of their in-your-face nature. However, background aspects such as this one can involve some suffering in silence, which can be just as if not more frustrating! Allow yourself the right to relax. While the world seems to be demanding a lot of work from you, and your own competitive or ambitious feelings can be at play as well, you need to slow things down before moving forward.
The 30-31 presents opportunities to get back into the game, ideally this time, well-rested! While work certainly benefits, this can also be a time for an edge in your romantic or personal life.

Capricorn (Born December 22 to December 31) and Capricorn Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Capricorn:May 2017 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
Overview. The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness Until May 20th: The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fifth house. This is a time when pleasure-seeking and creative activities come into focus and grab much of your attention. You are particularly personally charming in a spontaneous, natural way during this solar cycle. This is the time of year when you are ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful cycle, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. It's a good time for recreation, romance, connecting with children, and enjoying and performing the arts. Your ego is tied up in your children, romantic relationships, and creative output now, so that you can be especially proud of these people and things. You can also be over-sensitive about these matters if you feel you are not getting enough appreciation. From May 20th forward: The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. Details are more important to you now. It's time to bring order to your life by focusing on the little things that make up the whole. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn't work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now. Your physical health, as well as the relationship between your body and your mind, are in focus. Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort All month: Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic. You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere. In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal. Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation Mercury is retrograde from April 9th to May 3rd Occurring in your solar fourth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to family relations, real estate matters, and domestic issues. Be as non-judgmental as you can with family members. It may be challenging to keep a healthy perspective regarding deeply personal matters and family. Family members may be on edge, or appear to be. Home repairs may not turn out as expected. Try to put off major decision- making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. New initiatives surrounding home and property are best left for a better time, but reworking and reorganizing your home can be especially fruitful now. 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. Until May 16th: Mercury continues to transit your solar fourth house. Your thoughts tend to revolve around personal matters, especially family, home, and domestic issues. You enjoy, more than usual, discussions and stories about the past and about family. You are more rational and objective when it comes to your relationships with those close to you, so it is, in fact, a good time to open up discussions with family. There can be increased activities in and around the home during this cycle. You are not as interested in worldly matters and career as you are in your personal life for the time being. From May 16th forward: Mercury transits your solar fifth house. During this cycle, there is a powerful mental connection with your creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others smoothly now. Your thinking is more creative than usual. You tend to entertain others with your conversation; and your sense of humor (and of mischief!) is especially strong. Your thoughts turn to children, pleasures, or romance during this expressive cycle. You might enjoy researching speculative ventures now. You especially enjoy games that involve competing with others on a mental level. You have a stronger need than usual for intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You're more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position. Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage All month Mars continues to animate and energize your solar sixth house. Energy and initiative for work, health, and other daily activities increase. You are self-motivated when it comes to these matters. If there are disagreements and disputes that erupt on the job now, they may be due to a feeling of stress or impatience, or they could come from your desire to get things done independently. It's best to apply energy productively to completing projects that are unfinished or even to get ahead of yourself. It's a strong period for feeling motivated for starting a new health or fitness routine.

Capricorn (Born January 1 to 10) and Capricorn Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Capricorn:May 2017 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
Overview. The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness All month: The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors! You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year. This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy. Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort Until May 14th: Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style. During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual. Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle. You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted. From May 14th: Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic. You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere. In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage From the 6th forward: Mars animates and energizes your solar sixth house. You have more energy for work and your daily routines tend to speed up during this transit. Perhaps you have a larger workload than usual. It's a great time to take charge of your health. You have much energy at your disposal to pick up (or step up) a health and physical activity program. It might be hard for you to work with others in a harmonious manner during this transit, and disputes with co-workers are possible. If you are feeling especially angry, frustrated, or restless, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can channel excess energy constructively. If health is affected, fevers or infections are more likely.

Overview. The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness Until May 10th: The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It's a time when worldly matters are not as important to you. Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.

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.

You may be liberated from a household responsibility, for example, or a friend appears almost out of nowhere wanting your company or help. Alternatively, this can be a time for discovering your feelings about a friendship or project. You’ve been quite preoccupied with your personal life and work these days, and now you're being pulled out of your routine, nudging you towards a better balance. The Full Moon now is a reminder that giving back is rewarding. The 11th, 16-17, and 28th are more challenging dates that require you to muster up patience. You've been experiencing increased desires or prompts to communicate, connect more spontaneously and openly, and share your ideas, but there are times such as these where insecurity can undermine this. Do what you can to deal with possible fears of leaving yourself vulnerable. Toughening up on this level takes time and steady mini-challenges wherein you challenge yourself to face your fears on a small scale. However, one of the year’s star influences peaks this month and involves your ruler, Saturn, which gets fantastic support from Uranus. You first met this aspect in December, and it will continue to back you up until November. This is a time for updates, steady progress, and improvements - changes that don’t destabilize you, in other words. There can be opportunities to make an alternative setup work, perhaps related to your home life as Uranus is a long-time guest in your home and family sector. Living conditions and family relationships improve with more steadiness and security, yet still manage to maintain a spirit of openness and progress. Money and health matters can also improve. Here is a chance to put structures or new rules into place that don’t entirely impinge upon your freedom In fact, with some buckling down, you'll better enjoy your free time. The New Moon on the 25th brings power to your work and health sector (even more so) and encourages you to improve your habits and begin fresh with your routines. However, it occurs close to a Mars-Saturn opposition, exact on the 28th, and you’ll likely have to buckle down and make some compromises before you start brand new endeavors and strive towards your resolutions. Where you’ve been overdoing or pushing too hard, you now need to draw up limits and follow some rules. This aspect occurs along your health and service axis in the background of your chart. Aspects that are in the foreground are generally considered more challenging because of their in-your-face nature. However, background aspects such as this one can involve some suffering in silence, which can be just as if not more frustrating! Allow yourself the right to relax. While the world seems to be demanding a lot of work from you, and your own competitive or ambitious feelings can be at play as well, you need to slow things down before moving forward. The 30-31 presents opportunities to get back into the game, ideally this time, well-rested! While work certainly benefits, this can also be a time for an edge in your romantic or personal life.
