Foreign connections are the theme, whether you immerse yourself in a new culture or work alongside people from different backgrounds and countries. Say Yes to any invitation that comes your way this month, even if it means stepping out of your comfort zone. Expand your horizons.

Endings & Letting Go

There is also a possibility that something needs to come to an end this month, if you’re to make the most of the opportunities opening up in front of you.

This has a lot to do with the fact that your ruling planet, Saturn, is in Capricorn, your previous star sign, along with Pluto. These two planets can slow you down and both planets have a theme of endings or letting go.

Capricorn is the most hidden sector of your horoscope, sometimes linked to the past, karma or your inner self. Be vigilant about your thoughts this month and don’t let negativity take hold.

In some cases, the Saturn/Pluto combination could stop you pursuing your dreams or goals. Take the time to work things out carefully this month. Use logic and rationality to decide your next steps.

Also, turn to a friend or listen to a friend’s advice on or around the Full Moon.

Be aware that when Mercury’s in retreat, there’s a stop-start feel to your ability to make progress. You could hear about a new job or project this month, for example, but there’s a delay in starting it. Use the timing of Mercury retrograde to your benefit.

Finally, do make the most of your opportunities this month and don’t be your own worst enemy. Keep moving steadily forwards, even if at times you take two steps forward and one step back.
