Capricorn Monthly Horoscope

October opens with driven Mars powering through Leo and your eighth house of shared finances and long-term wealth. It’s a lucrative cycle that extends till late next month, but it demands some precision (and extra vigilance once Mercury spins retrograde on the 24th). If you're investing, negotiating a raise or combining resources with a partner, every detail matters. 

Career ambitions and financial goals align while the Sun powers through Libra and your professional tenth house until October 23. Your work could earn recognition, leading to an increase in pay or a new leadership position. The Libra new moon on October 10 brings fresh motivation to this sphere, a fantastic time for you to make career goals that will impact your bank account. Imagine where you want to be six months from now (at the Libra full moon in March) and reverse-engineer a path that will get you there. 

Collective efforts can pay off, too, Capricorn. With the Sun and Mercury retrograde in Scorpio lighting up your eleventh house of group ventures later this month, you're poised to profit from collective efforts. But before you make things binding, pace yourself. Communicator Mercury is retrograde in this zone of your chart from October 24 to November 13. A promising joint venture might hit a few snags or need extra time to negotiate terms (that you will want to read over thrice). Don’t let small miscommunications prompt you to toss the whole thing out!
