Midlife Transits

Lack of money doesn’t look to be a problem in February for Capricorn, as planets crowd into Aquarius and your solar house of income. If actual cash doesn’t come in, then you may receive gifts or other tangible items. Aquarius is a mentally oriented sign, so they may be gifts for the mind, such as books and so on, but one way or another your chart is in receiving mode. Of course, it may also be in spending mode, too, as Mars in luxurious Leo is not much of a bargain hunter. Do try to exercise reasonable caution and make sure you’re not overpaying for what you purchase this month.

Your chart isn’t lacking in skill this month, either. Venus and Jupiter (and eventually the sun) all converge on your solar 3rd house of the skills necessary to succeed in daily living. What you might need, however, is a sense of connection with someone. Contentious Mars is in your solar 8th house of intimacy, thrashing around and perhaps trying to work out problems that may have been triggered by the eclipse in Cancer at the end of December. Some Capricorns experienced a breakup around then (or perhaps around the end of January), and they are in full-on missing someone mode. Toward the end of the month, you may seek solace in church or a spiritual practice or in a trip to someplace far away.

As a final note, career concerns take precedence over family this month. Not everyone may like that, but that’s the way it is.
