Capricorn (December 22-January 19)
FEBRUARY 2009
What does your career mean to you, Capricorn? Is it a reflection of who you are, or is it just a place you go to punch a clock and score a paycheck? This month, the stars ask you to ponder the deeper implications of your work life.
Your sign likes titles and you genuinely enjoy working—you're an industrious Earth sign. However, you can find yourself stuck in a rut at times, scared to take a risk lest you lose your status, or rock the boat too hard. With the Sun in your second house of work and money through the 18th, it's a good time to kick your daily routine out of Dullsville. You're ready for new energy!
Here it comes, Capricorn. On February 4th, harmonious Venus enters your tenth house of career, where it will stay until June 6th. Venus is the planet of love and beauty, and in this prestigious placement, it's time to revamp your image! A little glamour is in order. If you want to reach the top, you've got to dress and play the part.
Admit it, you value modesty (even if there's a flashy go-go dancer living in your imagination), and you'd die if people thought you were actively seeking attention. So you let your star dim, then complain about how dark and cold it is.
Well, enough's enough. Capricorn, from today forward, you need to project an image that says, "I don't do windows." Not in a rude way, but it's time to emanate VIP class and dignity. Begin making subtle changes to your wardrobe, makeup, and posture. Be a little more selective about the people you're around—do they call you to a higher state or drag you down? Redo your business cards on fine paper stock, and beautify your office space. Say YES to business lunches, cocktail events and anything social, since Venus is in her element when out on the town.
A little motivation? On February 23rd, the Moon, lucky Jupiter, magical Neptune and ambitious Mars all come together in your money sector. You could score a big career coup or bring in a new source of revenue. Job interviews, meetings and salary reviews should be scheduled on that day if at all possible. Follow your instincts and intuition!
On February 9th, a Leo lunar eclipse brings a peak moment to your eighth house of wealth and resources. A lump sum could come your way out of the blue, since eclipses can usher in surprises. If you've been trying to sell a home, waiting for a large payment, or trying to pay off debt, you could have an almost divine moment where things magically come together.
Marriages, divorces, sex and joint property are also ruled by the eighth house. You could decide to either merge or sever ties completely around the eclipse. Surprise engagements, proposals and steamy affairs could be in the works. We know—it's been a while for many Caps, and you're ready for some action! All the more reason to bring a little edge to your image. You'll be walking tall and feeling sexy just in time. Eclipses have a reverb effect of up to a month, so start your makeover now and by March 9th, you could be feeling oh-so attractive. With Venus in your tenth house, you might attract the eye of a sexy, established person—possibly someone a little older than you. Keep an open mind.
After the 18th, get ready to network. The Sun in Pisces and your third house of communication makes it a good time to market yourself. With a new look and a new attitude, you'll be ready to make inspiring new connections. Imagine if you were a premium brand—how would you represent yourself? It's also a great time to check out local events and activities. Have your business cards ready, even if you just go to the store for milk. You never know who you'll run into!
