Your August 2026 Horoscope for Capricorn
by Susan MillerNow let’s get to the eclipses.
We have a new moon solar eclipse on August 12 in Leo (20º), the same part of your chart that was accented during the Sun-Jupiter conjunction on July 29—and it is a peach of an eclipse. With four (!) friendly heavenly bodies filling your financial eighth house of other people’s money—the Sun, the new moon solar eclipse, Jupiter, and Mercury—that’s plenty of planetary power, and the August 12 eclipse will bring financial news and opportunity.
I love that your ruling planet, Saturn, will be in perfect trine position to both Jupiter and Mercury in your eighth financial house at the time of the August 12 eclipse. Saturn is based in your home and family sector, so if you were looking to buy, rent, renovate, or sell property, this eclipse would likely be able to help you get started.
I also love that on the day prior, August 11 (and still exerting power on August 12), Venus, which rules your solar tenth house of career reputation, will be in a heavenly trine to Uranus, the planet of surprise. You may receive important praise or a sudden promotion from a VIP and be happily shocked. You will have no notice this good news is coming. Stay optimistic.
