Sun in Capricorn: Get Organized for the Year Ahead!

Last week, the Sun moved into Capricorn (through January 19) bringing an ambitious energy into the holiday period -- and into 2013.

Capricorn always follows etiquette and does what’s appropriate, so you use this influence to thank those people who’ve supported you professionally throughout 2012. A genuine thank you card or thoughtful gift goes a long way to express your appreciation, and helps solidify your working relationships for even more success in the coming year.

Ruled by Saturn, Capricorn loves structure, lists and anyone who follows through, so if you’ve made a commitment -- professionally or personally -- this is an important time to keep your promises, even if you’d rather be relaxing.

A list serves two purposes: it helps you express your desires by externalizing them on paper. The act of doing so then helps you clarify which goals are achievable in what time frames. And, according to Capricorn, timeliness is next to godliness! Set yourself up for success in 2013 by setting realistic targets. This is also a time for quality over quantity.

Capricorn’s love of time management helps you stay efficient and productive. Staying focussed in the present makes it easier to get things done in a timely manner. That way, you can relax knowing deadlines have been met.

Due to Saturn’s influence on Capricorn, this sign loves to plan. Take a quiet day to set out your big, medium and small goals. Capricorn is a hardworking sign and doesn’t shy away from putting out effort. If you keep your 2013 goals in mind now, you can mentally prepare for your year ahead.

Adopting a professional, hardworking-but-grounded attitude will help you complete 2012 with all your I’s dotted and T’s crossed. That way, you can rest over the New Year and start 2013 refreshed, primed and focused for success!
