Capricorn 2024: Believe in your strengths and embrace the changing times

Overall fortunes for the second half of the year

There will be two Capricorn full moons in 2024, in June and July. Full moons bring with them the notions of "success/achievement" and "letting go/reflection." This means that Capricorns will have two opportunities to review their goals and check their progress in the second half of the year. By taking a step back during this time, you'll be able to shift gears and get moving again from August onward, even if you felt stuck. Your flow will be completely reset, and you'll be able to move forward in the direction you feel is right. Then, in November, Pluto, which has been moving back and forth between Capricorn and Aquarius for the past year, will move fully into Aquarius. This will finally bring clarity to the unsettled feeling of unsure how to use your abilities and skills. At the same time, taking time to reflect on the past few months or years will help you move smoothly into the next step.

The second half of 2024 will be an important time for Capricorns to reflect on themselves and find new directions. December will provide an opportunity to rediscover your strengths and individuality and think deeply about how to utilize them in society. As a result, by incorporating new perspectives while leveraging your past experience and knowledge, you will be able to take on more unique endeavors and become more aware of yourself. Furthermore, you will likely gain significant learning opportunities in terms of interpersonal relationships. It is important to broaden your perspective and develop flexibility through interactions with people who hold different values from your own. By considering things from the other person's perspective, you will be able to gain deeper understanding and empathy.

Work luck in the second half of the year

In the second half of 2024, the stars are aligning so that those who have worked with the mindset of "enjoying their own life" will increasingly feel the need to "be conscious of work-life balance." Up until now, you may have focused on "how to use" and "how to make use of" your skills, but from now on, you will need time to reconsider "why" and "for whom" you are working. If you imagine yourself in the future and find that your current working style is different from what you would like, it may be time to start thinking about changing jobs in the future.

Reassessing working conditions is also likely to become an issue during this time. It's important to prioritize your own well-being while determining the direction of your career. Be sure to balance your work life and avoid sacrificing your personal life by devoting yourself too much to your work.

Financial luck in the second half of the year

In the second half of 2024, taking stock of your financial situation will be an opportunity to improve your financial luck. First, review the balance between your income and expenses and check for any unnecessary expenses. You'll likely find expenses that you don't even realize you're spending on. Also, think about your savings and investments. Getting into the habit of building assets, even if it's just a little at a time, for the future will lead to long-term financial health.

This is also a good time to find new sources of income. You could try a side hustle that utilizes your strengths and talents, or explore ways to turn your hobbies into income. However, it's important to do so within your limits.
