You are still in a phase of growth and opportunity but with Pluto now firmly in your sign, and principally affecting the December birthdays, you are not as much in control of your destiny as you might like to be. In other words, there will be events that come at you from left field affecting your plans in the short and long term. The periods around January 1^st, July 22^nd, August 26^th and December 31^st could be especially significant here. If making a name for yourself is a priority, Jupiter and Saturn are perfectly angled to help you gain recognition, however, you will need to step out of your comfort zone. Some roads have definitely run out and there is no use trying to repair them – it is time to move on. Ruler, Saturn, will arrive at the zenith of your horoscope in late October, and this planet brings rewards for the efforts of many years as well as adding to your responsibilities in the way of being a provider, parent and leader.

LOVE

Light and frothy is not how I'd describe your love life this year. When things are good they'll be fantastic and when they're not... Three eclipses in the zone of love and relating spell storm-tossed seas of love, which, doesn't necessarily imply they won't take you where you want to go but that getting there will be interesting. You will need to be philosophical about any endings because they clear the way for a relationship of depth and meaning and reciprocity, and some Capricorns will meet their match this year in unusual circumstances. Other Cappies could find themselves helping a partner through trying times (financially and emotionally) and events throughout the year will test the strength of your commitment to each other. There is also a strong influence from the past colouring your love life – old love returning, perhaps, or a past life connection.

AND THE REST

If you are twenty-nine, forty-three or fifty-seven years old a harvest of some description is taking place, whether you are to be offered a job of power and responsibility or you are forced out of a position you have held for years. But remember, moving out of your comfort zone will be the making of you. Maybe this is the very best time to throw your life-plan out of the window and make some radical changes – simplify your life, pursue a dream you had when you were little, decide on a role-reversal in a marriage – new beginnings have a heady feel to them. Plus, you can do very well financially this year so have confidence in your brave new beginnings and keep practising that law of prosperity – no fear, no shortfall. Indeed, this last little thought could be your mantra for the year.
