Overview for this Month: Capricorn (All)
September 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:
Your enthusiasm runs high this month, dear Capricorn. Your relationships are animated, and you're itching to learn and grow, moving beyond the mundane details of everyday life to gain life experiences. Anything that expands your horizons is a strong draw in September, although as the month advances, there can be an energy shift toward career and responsibilities.
Uranus begins its five-month retrograde phase this month. This wayward, inventive planet has encouraged you to express yourself more authentically and creatively during its long-term transit of your sector of joy. While retrograde until January 30th, you're inclined to slow down with these changes. Life is less about spontaneously reacting and more about considering which reforms are best for you in the long run. Creative projects or even relationships, especially those begun on a whim, can benefit from some review and refinement.
Pluto's re-entry into your sign this month can return you to further work or renovation with your image, personal presentation, and outlook. Pluto will continue in Capricorn until November 19th as part of its prolonged transition out of your sign, and you'll have some time to rework these things. This time, it's the final leg of its transit of your sign. It's an iconic period for sorting through what you've learned and excavated regarding your personal needs, wants, and ambitions. You're symbolically moving on.
On the 2nd, a New Moon occurs in your sector of spirit, higher learning, and perspective, stirring your worldview and need for different activities and learning experiences. It's clearing the path for new beginnings. You're gaining new knowledge or fleshing out your knowledge of particular subjects. You'll be building your faith and understanding where you stand and what you believe. Sharing your experiences with others, publishing, marketing, or studies can be in stronger focus. It's an excellent time for a stronger sense of purpose or meaning. Still, some self-reflection is appropriate so that you can get in better touch with your true desires.
Looking beyond your usual routine comes naturally now, and it's time for a new beginning. Obstacles, restrictions, or delays can prompt the need for something more. While this lunation can stir some tension or frustration, it's good for a sense that you're starting fresh on a spirit level–you're looking to feel freer or searching for more meaning.
You bounce back much more quickly from minor stresses and problems–you're blossoming now. It's a time to feed your mind, enjoy new experiences, and brush up on skills. From the 9th to the 26th, Mercury's transits can bring you a larger audience or recognition for your ideas. It's a great time to self-publish, learn, teach, connect, and share. You might enjoy an exciting new project or a revival of one already in progress. Studies and the sharing of ideas are fertile grounds for you.
On the 17th, a Lunar Eclipse brings a sudden awareness of the need to take better care of your daily affairs. There can be deadlines and realities of paperwork or errands to deal with now. You could experience some tension as your need to improve your daily affairs competes with the need to break the routine. Try to balance logic and emotion. Be firm and genuine to yourself in your dealings with others but avoid hasty words and moves. A writing or learning project can come to a turning point, and there can be publicity or promotion playing a significant role in your life or stress over a looming deadline.
This eclipse stirs your senses and can lead to a revelation. Try not to be too hasty with movements and communications. Whatever develops under this Full Moon, it's meant to push you forward, even if initially seems to slow you down. Watch out for processing too much information or for sensory overload — be discriminating with what you take in. You don't know the full story now since this eclipse downplays one area of life to magnify another.
It's important to note that this is the first in an eclipse set that will continue to influence you until 2027. This set of eclipses will bring both challenges and rewards to your communication or transportation systems, beliefs, education, sense of adventure, and mental world. The events that occur around this time are likely to set the stage for this new theme in your life, which will continue to unfold over the next several years.
From the 4th forward, Mars reveals strong needs and desires in the area of partnering. There is excitement ignited through your close relationships, and you might discover your ambitions or desires through feedback or motivated by relationship goals.
The Sun moves to the top of your solar chart on the 22nd, and Mercury does the same on the 26th. Career, ambition, performance, and accomplishment become stronger themes in your life. You put more pride and thought into these areas of your life.
People seek you out with Venus in your friendship sector from the 22nd, gracing your networking and socializing with friendly, warm energy. This transit subtly improves your social life and your appeal as a friend or colleague–you're more approachable and companionable. You get along better with the team, or you might share some of your talents or expertise with associates with excellent results. It can also be a fantastic period for business income strategies or mutually beneficial agreements.

Capricorn (Born December 22 to December 31) and Capricorn Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Capricorn:
September 2024 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 22nd:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar ninth house now. This is a cycle in which you seek to expand your experiences and awareness, whether through philosophical thinking, higher education, travel, or simply activities that take you away from your everyday routines. You may feel a little restless if you don't find ways to explore.
It's an excellent period for looking at your life from a different perspective--a broader one--whether you initiate this process or you make contact with others who stimulate you to think about your circumstances differently. Your energy is strong, open, and friendly right now, you come across well to others, and you are a little bolder and adventurous than usual.
From September 22nd forward:
The Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle.
You want to shine! Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.
Eclipses
A Lunar Eclipse occurs on September 17th:
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 third house. Surprises surrounding your siblings, neighbors, or classmates are 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 sector of communications is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a writing project, an event involving a sibling that grabs your complete attention, a sudden opportunity for an adventure or trip, a flurry of activity in your immediate environment or neighborhood that demands attention, a letter or other communication that holds a big surprise, and other such possibilities.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 22nd:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now. This may be a time when you are especially enjoying your career or position and making the most of it.
From September 23rd forward:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 8th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar eighth house. The ability to analyze and rationalize some of the deeper elements inside yourself and in your intimate life now can benefit you. This is also a good time for sorting out finances, particularly money shared or coming from other sources other than your own personal income.
You might particularly enjoy discussing topics that you typically don't verbalize with someone special during this cycle. Anything taboo, mysterious, or puzzling can be especially fascinating for you just now. You have little interest in small talk. You are more aware of subtleties and nuances during this cycle, and you can use this increased insightfulness to improve your life.
From September 9th to 26th:
Mercury transits your solar ninth house. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind turns to bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture.
You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.
From September 26th forward:
Mercury transits your solar tenth house. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now.
Use the power of words to influence authority figures. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined to chat about frivolous matters now.
You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 4th:
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.
From September 4th forward:
Mars energizes and animates your solar seventh house. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or opposition from others may be challenging. Use the extra energy that Mars brings to this sector of your chart to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Capricorn (Born January 1 to 10) and Capricorn Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Capricorn:
September 2024 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now.
A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with managing everyday affairs and important details.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 6th:
Venus continues to grace your solar ninth house. During this cycle, your ideals in love are set high. You might become inspired by a loved one now, or someone might awaken a new perspective or way of thinking in you. You could also enjoy a trip, or a new adventure of sorts. In fact, you are attracted to anything that is non-routine and fare best when you are reaching out beyond your usual bounds. You might be attracted to people or even objects that are exotic or different in some way during this cycle. It's a good period for personal charm and attractiveness in general.
From September 6th forward:
Venus graces your solar tenth house now. During this cycle, you are most charming and well-received on the job. Your responsibility and authority are likeable qualities now, making this a favorable period overall for schmoozing with those in a higher position than you, as well as for negotiations or social activities related to business. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely. You are socially ambitious right now, and success may come through your good managerial qualities or some form of artistic talent, or, indirectly through your marriage partner. People who turn your head during this cycle are those who come across as especially competent.

Capricorn (Born January 11 to 20) and Capricorn Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Capricorn:
September 2024 Capricorn Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 12th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar eighth house. Your attention turns inward, as well as to close personal relationships on a deeper level. Personal transformations, personal power, and intimate matters fulfill you most during this cycle. There may be a strong focus on other's money, such as the resources of a partner, inheritance, banking and loans, or taxes.
You are more intense in your mood and disposition, and perhaps even secretive, at this time of year. You are more in touch with the deeper and even primal elements of your own personality, and more able to see these things in others. This can be a determined and personally powerful time of year if you apply the energy of this transit constructively.
From September 12th forward:

In fact, you are attracted to anything that is non-routine and fare best when you are reaching out beyond your usual bounds. You might be attracted to people or even objects that are exotic or different in some way during this cycle. It's a good period for personal charm and attractiveness in general.
From September 15th forward:
Venus graces your solar tenth house now. During this cycle, you are most charming and well-received on the job. Your responsibility and authority are likeable qualities now, making this a favorable period overall for schmoozing with those in a higher position than you, as well as for negotiations or social activities related to business. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely. You are socially ambitious right now, and success may come through your good managerial qualities or some form of artistic talent, or, indirectly through your marriage partner. People who turn your head during this cycle are those who come across as especially competent.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 20th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar eighth house. The ability to analyze and rationalize some of the deeper elements inside yourself and in your intimate life now can benefit you. This is also a good time for sorting out finances, particularly money shared or coming from other sources other than your own personal income.
You might particularly enjoy discussing topics that you typically don't verbalize with someone special during this cycle. Anything taboo, mysterious, or puzzling can be especially fascinating for you just now. You have little interest in small talk. You are more aware of subtleties and nuances during this cycle, and you can use this increased insightfulness to improve your life.
From September 20th forward:
Mercury transits your solar ninth house. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind turns to bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture.
You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.
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.
Overview Horoscope:
September 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:
Your enthusiasm runs high this month, dear Capricorn. Your relationships are animated, and you're itching to learn and grow, moving beyond the mundane details of everyday life to gain life experiences. Anything that expands your horizons is a strong draw in September, although as the month advances, there can be an energy shift toward career and responsibilities.
Uranus begins its five-month retrograde phase this month. This wayward, inventive planet has encouraged you to express yourself more authentically and creatively during its long-term transit of your sector of joy. While retrograde until January 30th, you're inclined to slow down with these changes. Life is less about spontaneously reacting and more about considering which reforms are best for you in the long run. Creative projects or even relationships, especially those begun on a whim, can benefit from some review and refinement.
Pluto's re-entry into your sign this month can return you to further work or renovation with your image, personal presentation, and outlook. Pluto will continue in Capricorn until November 19th as part of its prolonged transition out of your sign, and you'll have some time to rework these things. This time, it's the final leg of its transit of your sign. It's an iconic period for sorting through what you've learned and excavated regarding your personal needs, wants, and ambitions. You're symbolically moving on.
On the 2nd, a New Moon occurs in your sector of spirit, higher learning, and perspective, stirring your worldview and need for different activities and learning experiences. It's clearing the path for new beginnings. You're gaining new knowledge or fleshing out your knowledge of particular subjects. You'll be building your faith and understanding where you stand and what you believe. Sharing your experiences with others, publishing, marketing, or studies can be in stronger focus. It's an excellent time for a stronger sense of purpose or meaning. Still, some self-reflection is appropriate so that you can get in better touch with your true desires.
Looking beyond your usual routine comes naturally now, and it's time for a new beginning. Obstacles, restrictions, or delays can prompt the need for something more. While this lunation can stir some tension or frustration, it's good for a sense that you're starting fresh on a spirit level–you're looking to feel freer or searching for more meaning.
You bounce back much more quickly from minor stresses and problems–you're blossoming now. It's a time to feed your mind, enjoy new experiences, and brush up on skills. From the 9th to the 26th, Mercury's transits can bring you a larger audience or recognition for your ideas. It's a great time to self-publish, learn, teach, connect, and share. You might enjoy an exciting new project or a revival of one already in progress. Studies and the sharing of ideas are fertile grounds for you.
On the 17th, a Lunar Eclipse brings a sudden awareness of the need to take better care of your daily affairs. There can be deadlines and realities of paperwork or errands to deal with now. You could experience some tension as your need to improve your daily affairs competes with the need to break the routine. Try to balance logic and emotion. Be firm and genuine to yourself in your dealings with others but avoid hasty words and moves. A writing or learning project can come to a turning point, and there can be publicity or promotion playing a significant role in your life or stress over a looming deadline.
This eclipse stirs your senses and can lead to a revelation. Try not to be too hasty with movements and communications. Whatever develops under this Full Moon, it's meant to push you forward, even if initially seems to slow you down. Watch out for processing too much information or for sensory overload — be discriminating with what you take in. You don't know the full story now since this eclipse downplays one area of life to magnify another.
It's important to note that this is the first in an eclipse set that will continue to influence you until 2027. This set of eclipses will bring both challenges and rewards to your communication or transportation systems, beliefs, education, sense of adventure, and mental world. The events that occur around this time are likely to set the stage for this new theme in your life, which will continue to unfold over the next several years.
From the 4th forward, Mars reveals strong needs and desires in the area of partnering. There is excitement ignited through your close relationships, and you might discover your ambitions or desires through feedback or motivated by relationship goals.
The Sun moves to the top of your solar chart on the 22nd, and Mercury does the same on the 26th. Career, ambition, performance, and accomplishment become stronger themes in your life. You put more pride and thought into these areas of your life.
People seek you out with Venus in your friendship sector from the 22nd, gracing your networking and socializing with friendly, warm energy. This transit subtly improves your social life and your appeal as a friend or colleague–you're more approachable and companionable. You get along better with the team, or you might share some of your talents or expertise with associates with excellent results. It can also be a fantastic period for business income strategies or mutually beneficial agreements.

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.
