The Truth About August

Capricorn, the steady mountain you’ve been climbing feels more like a crumbling cliff face this month. Slipping with scree, covered in prickly shrubs, not good. The geo-zenith highlights your career, reputation, and long-term goals – but the foundation you’ve built your ambition on is shaking harder than you’d like. The universe is testing if your definition of success is really yours, or just a well-rehearsed act. Find out fast.

Pluto’s shadow looms large, stirring up buried fears about control and failure. Dwarf planets Ceres and Haumea toss in a cocktail of power struggles and forced reinvention. The message? You can’t scale a peak while clinging to old roles or outdated structures. It’s time to rewrite your blueprint for achievement – one that honours your limits and your needs, not just your drive.

Financially, this month warns against overextending – whether through investments, loans, or promises you can’t keep. Hard-earned stability is at risk if you ignore the warning signs. Career changes or public reckonings might feel like setbacks but are actually gateways to a more authentic path. Be open enough to trust them when you see them.

Relationships demand patience and real talk. Old resentments bubble under the surface, especially around work-life balance and who “wears the pants.” Your usual “fix it all” attitude won’t cut it here – vulnerability is your best power move, even if it scares you. Here you need to change- and quickly to keep what you have.

The takeaway: Capricorn, you’re not a robot. The mountain won’t respect your hustle if your foundation is made of sand. Time to build from the ground up, re-asses or keep falling back.
