Capricorn: August 2024 Monthly Love Horoscope

Get ready to embrace some challenges this month, Capricorn, starting when Mercury goes retrograde while in kindred earth sign Virgo on August 4. You know by now to expect the usual amount of glitches and delays, but also keep in mind that you have the brainpower and calmness to solve most romantic mishaps you come across. Having patience and not making assumptions are two main keys.

On the twenty-second, the sun leaves loud Leo for reliable, calm Virgo, bringing more predictability to your love life. Will you miss the anticipation and excitement of not knowing what might happen next? Maybe a little bit. But this quieter, more practical vibe brings a sense of seriousness that you’ve been missing.

Ceres, the asteroid tied to nurturing behavior, leaves its retrograde cycle while in your self-disciplined sign on August 26, so you might hold back on big shows of affection. This could cause issues if a current partner feels that you’re withdrawing from them or a potential lover gets the cold shoulder, but it is what it is. You can’t make yourself get in the mood if you don’t feel like it.

On the twenty-ninth, though, love-linked Venus enters kind, charming Libra, so you’ll strive to bring more peace and harmony to existing or potential partnerships. You genuinely want to be in a loving relationship now, and you’re willing to compromise to make it happen. Strive for a vibe where both partners feel valued and appreciated.
