Capricorn Monthly Horoscope

Foreigners and Foreign Countries

We live in a pandemic age when ‘foreign’ can be another culture or nationality in your own country (because you are not flying). Yet, however you read it, the Virgo weather in your solar Ninth House of globalisation and international connections will change everything in September.

You will take a new path, on near the New Moon in Virgo on Saturday August 27th. Just be aware of the delays and cancellations from August until October. This will come from COVID, of course, but also airlines and cruise companies in trouble. People coming in to see you may cancel, or your idea about going abroad may be scrapped. This is textbook Mercury Retrograde.

Mercury Retrograde in Virgo Sunday, August 21st until Friday, August 26th, 2022, then Saturday September 24th until Monday, October 10th, 2022, suggests you need to allow for changes or delays to the original plan. So what begins near the 27th of August goes back and forth; is relaunched; held up.

The Sun in Virgo from Monday August 22nd until Friday September 23rd, 2022, shows you a map of the world, or a map of your own country with foreign names underlined. Step back from the map and see your life and yourself as others do. Perhaps you have an Air BnB and accept tourists from other countries. Maybe your new friend speaks a second language. For whatever reason, a different culture can slide up on the scale of importance.

Venus in Virgo from Monday the 5th until Thursday the 29th of September 2022 just brings in the very human side of this. Venus loves a bit of game-playing. In the old days, astrologers would see Venus in your solar Ninth House and say, ‘Foreign romance.’ That is not impossible. It really depends on your natal chart.

The Full Moon in Pisces opposite the Sun in Virgo on Saturday the 10th of September 2022 is a watershed. Avoid the 9th, 10th, 11th for big decisions or action plans about foreigners or foreign countries; it’s hard enough then anyway! Yet, there is a caveat here, about local travel, regional getaways.

Jupiter re-enters Pisces on Saturday October 29th until Tuesday December 20th, 2022, and that’s a fantastic, rare opportunity for you to have more, do more and experience more – locally. Say, the distance from Rome to Naples. That’s basically the ground Roman messengers used to cover, in the days when Mercury was the messenger of the gods.

What is too hard with foreigners and foreign countries near September 10th spawns something terrific, closer to home, from Halloween to Christmas. Ceres in Virgo from Friday September 30th until Sunday December 18th, 2022, shows the biggest, biggest picture of foreign places and faces. Capricorn, you are going to be involved in the mother of all compromises about this.

There will also be a game of musical chairs with other Ninth House issues, like academia and publishing. The worldwide web. If that is personal for you, then October, November, December will see departures, mergers, promotions, demotions, deals.

Ceres at 24 Leo, the Sun at 24 Virgo and Neptune at 24 Pisces all line up together on Saturday the 17th of September. Avoid that day and 24 hours either side for global criss-crossing, even on Zoom – unless you actually like chaos. I smell COVID trouble. I predicted ‘a virus’ twice back in 2019 because of patterns in Virgo-Pisces and I don’t like the look of that opposition, tied into Ceres. Just be wary. And aware.

Success, Ambition, Position, Mission

Libra Weather is with you in your Tenth House of career, academia and unpaid work. It’s quite a story in September and it will take you back and forth.

Mercury Retrograde in Libra from Saturday, August 27th until Friday, September 23rd, then Tuesday the 11th until Monday the 17th of October 2022 suggests you should be flexible about what is ‘final’ as it won’t be final at all. The terms may alter, or the dates, or there will be something in the fine print that takes you around in circles. I am sure you know Mercury rules communication, information and negotiation. So just be aware of that if you are accepting a new gig or enrolling in anything.

Of course it can be an ongoing project, Capricorn, so you may find life is circular, August-October. The Sun in Libra from Saturday September 24th until Sunday October 23rd will at least help you shed light on it all. This is incredibly useful. Your best chance in 12 months to step back from your career and see it as others do. What is your performance like? How are you doing?

Venus in Libra from Friday September 30th until Sunday October 23rd, 2022, will make the purely professional, intensely personal. Your employer may flirt with you, or you may find a crushette develops with a new arrival at work. Venus can sashay in taking human form, so there may be a beautiful, sexy woman around the work or academic sphere; she’ll be vain, insecure and the full unreconstructed 20th century Hollywood female.

The New Moon in Libra on Sunday the 25th of September brings you a new role, path or project in all this. Look up and you’ll see it as a sliver in the night sky. It’s the very, very tiniest start of something which will grow and develop over time. Perhaps you’ll retrain. Maybe you’ll just shelve the old business in favour of a replacement.
