Capricorn    December 21 to January 19

A cardinal earth sign of negative polarity ruled by Saturn. Key Phrase: 'I Use'

Capricorn is represented by the symbol of the mountain goat, which climbs with purpose, slow, steady, and surefooted to the peak of the mountain. Ever cautious, using every rock necessary, rarely looking back, and never deterred by things that stand in the way of their climb to the top.  Capricorns  are ambitious. They have the ability to use any and all tools at their disposal to ensure success in their endeavours. Their extreme capacity for hard work is linked with their notion that success means security. Capricorns have excellent intuitions and use them in their struggle to achieve personal independence and economic security.  The sun in Capricorn is old when young and young when old. (What could be better?)

Forecast: 2009 to 2010

Pluto entered the sign of Capricorn in November 2008 and will stay until 2024. Pluto is about power and Capricorn is ambitions and determined to climb to the top of the ladder. The next 16 years will reveal your ultimate potential and show your full capabilities. You will often be placed in leadership roles. In true Capricorn fashion, you will meet adversities head on, rarely look back, and be absolutely confident of achieving success.  Pluto repairs what needs fixing, sometimes it's just renovations, but usually it's a complete rebuild from the foundation up.

Spiritual Neptune is right next door in the sign of Aquarius. Neptune has been here since 1998 and will stay until 2012. Neptune is about having faith and believing in yourself.  A good neighbour to have when you need to rely on your inner strength.

Uranus moved into Pisces in December 2003, and will stay until 2011. From the spiritual sign of Pisces, Uranus will present you with many opportunities to be artistically inspirational. Your dreams can become reality, if you let them. You need only to trust your instincts and believe in yourself.

Practical Saturn, your ruler, entered the sign of Libra in October 2009, squaring your Capricorn Sun. In March 2010 Saturn retrogrades back into the sign of Virgo trining your Sun until July 2010. At that time Saturn will take up permanent residence in Libra until October 2012. Saturn is about responsibility and commitments. Libra is about balance, co-operation and teamwork. Saturn is exalted in the sign of Libra, stressing the importance of fair play and mutual respect. Both are essential to achieve and maintain harmonious relationships. This transit will try your patience and decisions will be difficult to implement. During this transit you will need to define the parameters of your partnerships and end those that are not balanced equally.

Optimistic Jupiter enters the inspirational sign of Pisces in January 2010, sextile your Sun. This is the third year of a new 12 year Jupiter cycle, you started in 2008. During this transit your level of confidence is high and you believe all good things can and will happen. Jupiter will break down barriers and open doors to many new possibilities. Stay alert and don't overlook anything, even the most insignificant details have great potential.
