A Tarot Reader Predicts What Each Zodiac Sign Can Expect During 2024’s Capricorn Season
ARIES
Your Card: Four of Swords, reversed
During Capricorn season, the Sun moves through your Tenth House, turning your focus on your career and ambitions. The reversed Four of Swords indicates you’re going to be contemplating changes you need to make in your professional life. This might mean examining whether your current job aligns with your values and goals, handling aspects of your future that you’ve been avoiding, or exploring new opportunities. With your aspirations heavy on your mind, don’t forget that it’s also important to strike a balance between work and rest. Downtime is important in helping you manage your stress, finding clarity, and helping you maintain your focus long-term.
TAURUS
Your Card: The Moon
If you’re feeling lost or anxious, The Moon reminds you that you will find your way out of this place. All you need to guide you through this darkness is your intuition and inner wisdom. Finding clarity may take some time, so give yourself patience, Taurus. Use this Capricorn season to look inward. Keeping a journal during this time to write out your innermost thoughts, dreams, and desires will help unlock the answers you seek. In the meantime, don’t succumb to your fear of the unknown. With your Ninth House activated, focus on seeking out adventure, expansive experiences, and learning something new, instead.
GEMINI
Your Card: Five of Cups
With the Sun traveling through your Eighth House, you’re going to be diving deep into emotional waters during Capricorn season. As the Five of Cups denotes, old feelings of disappointment, regret, heartbreak, and sorrow will resurface. You might find yourself mourning a relationship that ended, an opportunity that didn’t pan out, or an unexpected loss. The wound may be old, but the pain will feel fresh. Don’t spend too much time dwelling on the past that you lose sight of all the wonderful blessings of your present. When you give any of your energy to the “what could have been,” you could cause yourself to miss out on new possibilities.
CANCER
Your Card: Queen of Swords
During Capricorn season, the focus is on your closest relationships and collaborative partnerships. The Queen of Swords promises clarity, honesty, and discernment in those areas during the next four weeks. If you’re romantically committed, you’re going to be finding new ways to maintain your independence and personal autonomy within the relationship. You’re feeling more confident than you have in a while, inspiring you to express your truth and approach any conversations you’ve been avoiding with your nearest and dearest. As you find yourself more compelled to be direct with others, it’s important that you set any boundaries that you need to set. Reassess any connections that weigh you down, confine you, or don’t give you the reciprocity you require.
LEO
Your Card: The Sun
Has this past year left you feeling exhausted, discouraged, or overwhelmed? The Sun is your cosmic sign to slow down and rejuvenate so that you can feel great again. There’s no better time than Capricorn season to catch a much-needed break (or few). With your Sixth House activated, you might feel compelled to be productive, but with Mars retrograde in your sign until January 5, you need to maintain balance and mindfulness with work. Take a breather. Prioritize doing things that bring you joy. Reconnect with your inner light and try to remember what it is that brings you an authentic sense of fulfillment.
VIRGO
Your Card: Ten of Wands
2024 has been quite the year, Virgo. For someone who works as hard as you do, that’s a complete understatement. Don’t beat yourself up too much for the burnout you’re experiencing. The Ten of Wands urges you to slow down and prioritize your well-being during Capricorn season. Get your batteries recharged. That shouldn’t only involve rest and self-care, but also taking part in activities that bring you pleasure. With the Sun moving through your Fifth House of creativity, romance, and self-expression, you should be carving out time to reconnect with your inner child. A good dose of fun can do wonders to replenish your spirit.
LIBRA
Your Card: Knight of Swords, reversed
Oof! The Knight of Swords warns of aggression, impulsiveness, recklessness, and impatience. It’s crucial that you carefully think before you act and speak over the next few weeks. If not, you might find yourself facing undesirable consequences during Capricorn season. The words you choose and how you say them have a deep impact. Remember to choose them wisely. You can be honest without being insensitive and blunt. Practice compassion, especially with those closest to you. The Sun lights up your sector of home, family, and emotional foundations. Keep the peace during and after the holidays.
SCORPIO
Your Card: Temperance, reversed
When the Temperance shows up in reverse, it’s a warning of excess, turmoil, and imbalance. This card urges you to practice moderation. During Capricorn season, it’s important that you examine where in your life you may be overdoing it, so that you may go into the new year with better habits. Maybe you need to find a better work and life balance, or perhaps you need to go easier on the overindulgence. Be honest with yourself about any toxic, destabilizing patterns you need to break. Pinpoint where you could be practicing more self-discipline. Reflect on how you can incorporate more harmony into your life. If you don’t, you’ll face a 2025 full of anxiety and stress.
SAGITTARIUS
Your Card: The Lovers, reversed
With the Sun in your Second House of income, wealth, material possessions, and values, this card calls on you to carefully examine how you’re managing your finances. Be honest, Sag. Have you been overspending? Could you implement a better plan for saving? Do you even have a budget? What are you doing to pay off your debts? How could you be generating more income? Go into 2025 with improved financial strategies and better equipped to make fiscal decisions. Prepare yourself, or you might face financial disharmony.
CAPRICORN
Your Card: Five of Pentacles, reversed
Happy birthday, Capricorn! Welcome to the most wonderful time of the year—your season! You should be proud of yourself for all the progress you’ve made in 2024. Pat yourself on the back. With the Sun in your First House, you’re feeling yourself more than you have all year. As the Five of Pentacles in reverse shows, you’re experiencing a renewed sense of hope and optimism. If it feels like anything is possible, that’s because it is. No one is as tenacious as you are. You should use this surge of positivity to get crystal clear on your intentions for 2025. You will accomplish whatever you set your mind to.
AQUARIUS
Your Card: Strength, reversed
Capricorn season is going to be a deeply introspective period for you. The Sun shines in your mystical Twelfth House of spirituality and the subconscious, compelling you to slow down and focus on your inner world. Old wounds, anger, and heartache bubble to the surface. Stay gentle to yourself. Show yourself compassion. Let yourself feel and process every emotion. Trust that this is you finally finding the healing and closure you’ve waited on for so long. You’ll be feeling a lot better once your season rolls around on January 20.
PISCES
Your Card: The Hanged Man, reversed
As 2024 comes to a close, the time for action has come. Whatever decision you’ve been stalling, you need to act now. You may not feel certain what the best course of action is, but indecision can lead to stagnation, as well as cause you to lose out on a potentially wonderful opportunity. Trust your instincts, Pisces. Don’t be afraid to embrace the unknown. You may never feel totally ready, so just make your move. Taking a step forward, even when it might not work out, is the most courageous and brave thing you can do.
