Capricorn Weekly Horoscope
WEEK OF October 17 – 2 3, 2022
Venus is the celebutante of the week, making a few key connections before the weekend. The first big hit comes on Tuesday, October 18, when Venus in your ambitious tenth house teams up with action planet Mars in your hard-working sixth. This twice-a-year supportive trine brings golden opportunities to crush a big goal. Aim high, Capricorn: The last thing you want to do now is underestimate your power. Do whatever it takes to reach that next level, from updating your resume and LinkedIn profile to making a bold executive decision.
You could meet an influential person midweek who can help you rise through the ranks. Or grab the reins and offer your services to someone who’s doing what you’d love to be doing. Paying your dues can be like taking the express elevator to the top floor. But don’t dawdle! On Thursday, Venus slams into a square with controlling Pluto, which can create the wrong kind of friction. For better or worse, any moves you make get amplified on Saturday, when Venus and the Sun team up on the final day of Libra season and put everything on full display.
On Sunday, the Sun-Venus dynamic duo powers up again when together they move into Scorpio—Venus until November 16 and el Sol until November 22. Starting tomorrow, you can ease off the throttle at work, which you may never have expected to feel like such an enormous relief! While there’s no question WHY you’ve earned your street cred as the workaholic of the zodiac, over the past month, you’ve probably been burning the midnight oil to finish an important deadline on time. So when these two powerhouses gracefully exit your career house, you’ll be more than ready to reengage with your friend circles.

The best part? When the Sun and Venus leave Libra, they’ll blaze into your upbeat eleventh house of social networking for four weeks. It might take you a minute to shift gears, but once you do, you’ll enjoy being back into the groove of happy hours, karaoke nights and, if you’re single, renewed dating efforts. Coupled Caps will definitely enjoy some one-on-one quality time with bae! And since the eleventh house is your tech sphere, a mutual digital project could be especially rewarding.
Your finances get a shot in the arm as well starting this Sunday, as your cosmic custodian, disciplined Saturn, concludes a frustrating, almost-five-month retrograde through your second house of money and security. This should come as welcome news after many months of belt-tightening, unexpected bills and possibly even a rare bout of debt! But once Saturn resumes forward motion, the old Capricorn deftness with cash flow will return and restore your equilibrium. Strengthen your motivation by setting a few Q4 goals that you can be sure to hit. Trim any unnecessary fat from the budget, cook more meals and eat in more, and cancel some of those micro-subscriptions that add up to a bundle. This planetary pivot could bring profitable prospects—at the office, through a sideline business or perhaps a job offer.
