Hello sweethearts, and welcome to the horoscope reading for your Capricorn man for August. Now for many people around the world, this is the holiday season and a time we associate with fun, being laid back, and enjoying ourselves.
But this particular August—and it’s not a big “but” because there’s plenty of positive energy—Mercury is retrograde in Virgo. That means there is a note of caution when it comes to planning and communications because, during this phase, there can be difficulties in travel, wires tend to get crossed, and there can be periods of stalemate and frustration.
Now, the other big feature of this month is Mars will be conjunct Jupiter on the 15th, which brings a vibrant, exciting energy and a particularly adventurous, playful spirit.
This is perfect for the August holidays or, even if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere and you aren’t on holiday, a great time to be motivated, proactive, and particularly to be outdoors.
So for you and your Capricorn man, it’s a time to think about how to boost your energy through positive activities, particularly those involving being physically active and finding adrenaline-pumping activities to do that are a little bit adventurous.
Even though Mercury is retrograde and you have to look before you leap and do a little bit of planning, if you have the presence of mind, there’s still definitely a flavor of adventure and excitement and also romance because the month ends with Venus opposite Neptune and then Venus entering Libra, the planet of love.
So the month goes out on a particularly romantic note, which is quite something to look forward to.
Here’s what the stars have in store for a Capricorn Man this August…
New Moon in Leo on the 4th of August
Now Capricorn is one of the more alpha male signs. He can be stubborn, and he is sometimes quite strict about his role as father or husband/boyfriend. He likes to be in the lead, he wants to make decisions, and he has a strong need to be in control.
The New Moon in Leo can bring out those instincts, so there is a serious side to Capricorn Man that is aroused. This can make him more suspicious if the relationship is not faring well. It can make him more aware of any issues that are unresolved, any promises that haven’t been kept, or any perceived failures that make the relationship seem less secure.
So what do you need to do? It’s vital right now that you pull together, that you are a strong, decisive partner, and you follow through on your word. It’s also so important to be straightforward and honest.
This can also be, however, a good New Moon to take control of your finances and to have discussions about your spending priorities for the rest of the year so that you make sure you tick those boxes and go out of 2024 in a better financial position than you went into it.
Mercury goes retrograde in Virgo on the 5th of August
Now, for Capricorn Man, Virgo represents the part of his chart that is more carefree, adventurous, and philosophical. However, being retrograde, this can also be a time where he’s a little bit pedantic about details.
Sometimes he’s more superstitious, he’s eager to follow little rituals, and if there’s anything that he particularly believes in, he’s more likely to fall back on that. So it’s a time when he can have a crisis of confidence, and it really helps if he has a strong faith, because that can give him confidence.
If he doesn’t have a faith, he’s more likely to question everything, and that means that he can almost make problems where there aren’t any. So the problem with this transit is it’s kind of a mountains-out-of-a-molehill thing when things can get a little bit out of proportion.
So, as a partner, what you have to do is to be reasonable and to keep him on an even keel. He can overcomplicate things right now, so what you need to do is to just keep it all simple, and that means keep communication pretty simple and basic too.
Venus enters Virgo on the 6th of August
Now what does this mean? It means, as a partner, you have to be encouraging and positive. Now, with the New Moon and the Mercury retrograde, he is inclined to be a little bit more sensitive, and he can be somewhat prone to worry and to some obsessive-compulsive behavior.
So what you have to do right now, as a partner, is to help him see the wood from the trees. Don’t let him get bogged down in detail, and maintain a lively attitude. You don’t want him to think you are flippant and making light of the things that concern him, but at the same time, you also want to be positive and inject every situation with an appropriate amount of humor and also some perspective. It’s so easy right now for him to lose perspective.
Now, this is quite a good time for new relationships. He’s open to relationships that are a little bit challenging, and sometimes he finds these rather rewarding, so the more difficult relationships can have a good start, whereas relationships that seem good on paper sometimes don’t have a good start at all. So it’s a very confusing picture with love; that’s why it’s important just to have a very zen approach.
Mars is conjunct Jupiter in Leo on the 15th of August
This is a really important conjunction, and it can really motivate a Capricorn man in terms of financial and business-related decisions. He is more likely to invest for the long term, and it is also a good time to think about pensions, investments, consolidating debt, and getting on top of money.
However, it’s not just about finances. This can also be an exciting time for your sex life and just giving the intimacy side of life an energy injection. So, what a great time to recapture the initiative in terms of making your sex life a space where you can connect, renew trust, and show him how much you really love him.
A Capricorn man is quite a sexual guy, and right now, those desires are stirred. If he’s not satisfied sexually, that’s when his more domineering, possessive streaks can come to the fore.
Mercury enters Leo retrograde on the 16th of August
Now, during this phase, there can be a lot of tension, so it’s very important that whatever you do, you are clear on details. It’s so vital right now not to be vague. So often in relationships, we are distracted, we don’t really concentrate on what we’re saying, and we can create the wrong impression.
Whenever you communicate, make sure that you are fully committed to the communication and say things that you mean and that are constructive. It’s definitely not a time for throwaway comments, off-the-cuff humor, or innuendo, because these can sow seeds of doubt in the relationship.
If you want him to let him know how you feel, be totally clear and be upfront. This is also a time to reinforce loyalty and trust by behavior that is always positive and transparent.
Themes for a Capricorn Man this August 2024
Intensity, passion, and desire are all themes this month. It is certainly a time when the relationship can become deeper and more meaningful, but it’s also a time when any deficiencies in terms of the level of trust and commitment can cause rifts. It’s important to be honest and transparent, but it’s also vital that you explore fully the intimate potential of your life by not neglecting your sex life.
Magic Motto – “No one loves you like I do and I’m invested in this divine journey we share.”
Magic Text – “I’m thinking of you and I’m blushing because you always bring out the sexual devil in me.”
Do
The moon waxes from the 4th to the 19th of August, and this represents his best opportunity to succeed with new projects, initiatives, beginning new relationships, or relationship reboots, so if there’s anything you guys want to jump on board with, this is the time.
Mercury retrograde in Virgo from the 5th indicates that, after this date, it’s much harder to make progress on legal matters, international trade, long-distance travel, negotiations, and publishing or study goals. Journalism, communication, and IT goals are not favored after the retrograde.
A good waxing period for personal goals, recuperating, and improving health through physical activity or therapy. This is a suitable period for dealing with health issues and getting new information to improve health. A good time for him to change his diet and investigate new exercise routines.
This is also a good time for new sexual relationships and for you and your Capricorn guy to make improvements to or reboot your sex life. It is also a favorable time for new business partnerships. This is also a suitable time for negotiation and trying to reach decisions and compromise in marriage.
Avoid
The waxing phase is not that great for spiritual awareness, meditation, spiritual goals or retreats. It’s not a favorable time to deal with large corporate entities or government departments. New work in the charitable or rehabilitation sector is less successful.
This is not ideal for new roles at work or recruitment of staff, nor is traveling to attend a course. This is not a successful time for him trying new diets, innovative health initiatives and anything strict or restrictive in terms of diet.
Not a good time for him to join a gym or begin a new fitness regime. Training staff is not successful. Not a favorable time to open a business connected to animals, manufacturing or medicine.
