Venus in Capricorn Overview
When Venus transits the serious Earth sign of Capricorn, relationships, and finances experience a Saturn touch. Capricorn’s ruler, Saturn, is known for its serious, practical, methodological approach which allows it to reach its goals successfully. Capricorn Venus energy views love and finances as a goal in many respects. There is the idea that love and money must work for them in a practical manner in order for it to be worthwhile. This is not the energy of being swept off our feet where we end up in happily ever after without any hard work. Venus in Capricorn realizes that any successful endeavor including relationships takes effort on the behalf of all parties involved. Because of this, the Venus in Capricorn transit is a grounding and solidifying influence that gives us the opportunity to thoroughly assess our existing relationships as well as how we manage our finances for improvement.
Because Venus in Capricorn takes everything so seriously, this energy may want us to pull back from anyone or anything that is not showing the necessary effort to maintain a highly-functioning relationship. Capricorn energy simply does not have time for childish games or people that are unsure of their desire to be in a relationship. With this transit, there’s also the possibility that we will seek out individuals who have the potential to improve our status in life as Capricorn energy prefers to be associated with honorable, successful people.
Also during this transit, we may not be the most outwardly professing of our love and affection as Capricorn tends to keep its emotions under wraps. We are more likely to show love and affection in practical ways. For example, this is energy where someone shows you that they care for you by making sure you get up on time for work each day or by picking you up from work. Venus in Capricorn will teach us the importance of taking our time to build a relationship that is based on a willingness to put in the hard work to create and maintain a quality relationship.
In regards to finances, Venus in Capricorn seeks financial stability, so this is an excellent time to make plans for increasing income or establishing a career.

The innate expression of Venus in Capricorn energy is to save for a rainy day as opposed to splurging on unnecessary purchases. Seeking out sound, proven investments to increase financial stability and prosperity is another positive expression of Venus in Capricorn energy.
