Capricorn is the tenth sign of the zodiac, located in the heart of winter in the northern hemisphere, a season of stripping down but also of underground preparation. This cardinal Earth sign is ruled by Saturn, the planet of time, rigor, and structures. Capricorn embodies discipline, prudence, and long-term ambition. It does not seek the spotlight but the summits. Far from being cold, it deploys its energy in construction, often patient, sometimes solitary, of a lasting work, whether a career, a home, or a worldview.

In 2025, Capricorn continues a phase of slow but profound evolution, guided by the combined effects of Saturn in Pisces, Pluto, and the lunar transits. This year favors efforts of internal structuring as much as professional.
The influence of Neptune accentuates the need for emotional authenticity. Lasting relationships will be strengthened by more fluid communication, especially during the Venus-Mercury conjunction on May 12. However, natives of the first decan should avoid withdrawal or excessive control in their emotional bonds.
The passage of Jupiter in Gemini energizes the professional sphere starting in June 2025. Opportunities for development, increased mobility, and recognition are on the agenda, especially for Capricorns who have laid solid foundations in recent years. Natives of the third decan could initiate a new cycle of major responsibilities.
In 2025, Capricorn faces a duality: moving forward while lightening the load of the superfluous. Pluto in Aquarius begins a cycle of personal regeneration. Meditative practices, long-distance walking, or intermittent fasting could become particularly beneficial recentering tools.
The keyword for Capricorn in 2025 is lightening. The year pushes you to get to the essential, to unload what no longer belongs to you, while keeping your verticality. It is by combining rigor and flexibility that you will climb, once again, a new step in your own edifice.
