As the Capricorn season grounds us, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains what it means for each star sign

There will be lots of forward-moving energy next week, as Capricorn grounds us with his steadfastness. On January 10, the Sun in Capricorn interacts benevolently with Uranus in Taurus, allowing us to feel excited about what is about to enter our lives. Uranus is the planet that helps us course-correct, so we may feel the changes that we are ready to make that ultimately benefit us. Although the exact next steps might not be clear yet, we could feel steady about our future direction and vision, as both Capricorn and Taurus are grounded Earth signs. We continue to feel this energy leading up to the Capricorn New Moon on January 11; if you have not yet set an intention for the new year, this would be the perfect day to get clear on your goals and desires. Capricorn is the sign of the sea goat who understands hard work, long-term goals and determination. As the Sun and the Moon come together on this day, we could tune into our emotional world (the Moon) to help inspire our will and actions (the Sun), asking ourselves: what is my legacy and what is it that I wish to create in this world?

With the support of other planets, radical changes are possible, especially related to our career. It is also possible that we become overwhelmed by the many possibilities and uncertainty of the future. When doubts arise, lean into trust and remember that the road leading us to our dreams is a marathon, not a sprint.

The week by rising sign

Aries
What’s the legacy you wish to build? What’s the impact you wish to create through your work? Stay committed and trust that hard work pays off in due time. 

Taurus
You may be inspired by an educational plan, perhaps the idea of studying or living abroad. Try to shake things up a little, you might be surprised at what you discover about yourself.

Gemini
A good time to review your long-term investments and financial situations, perhaps practically resolving loans and debts. Wise spiritual insights may emerge when you least expect it. 

Cancer
Relationships take work to maintain and eventually bloom. Instead of relying purely on feelings and emotions, could you make use of the gift of logic and practicality as well? 

Leo
It’s time to think about where your work is taking you, and whether it’ll be fulfilling in the long run. There might be a change of trajectory in your career. 

Virgo
An exotic love affair might pop up in your reality. This time, you might be handling it with extra care, inviting long-term planning and assessing whether things work realistically.  

Libra
Perhaps you’re considering a move or creating changes in your home, but be aware that loans or tax issues might arise out of the blue, so make sure you’re planning carefully and logically. 

Scorpio
A million career ideas could be crossing your mind now, maybe even a business plan around your neighbourhood. Let your close relationships support you. 

Sagittarius
You may have some financial goals in mind, perhaps you’ve been inspired to look at money from a different perspective (a surprising arrangement at work may just be of help). 

Capricorn
There’s a part of you that knows the value of determined diligence, lean into that as you create your new year’s bucket list, just don’t dismiss your creative side. 

Aquarius
Try committing to a spiritual practice and notice how your emotional world becomes more steady. Perhaps a 30-day meditation challenge or going for morning yoga three times a week could help.

Pisces
There’s value in both romantic daydreaming and practical building (now is the time for the latter). Get clear on your vision and begin taking tangible steps to achieve them.
