Capricorn Monthly Horoscope

Playtime begins April 19 when the Sun enters Taurus

Come out and play, Capricorn! On April 19, the Sun struts into sensual Taurus, lighting up your fifth house of passion, creativity and self-expression until May 20. This is your annual permission slip to let loose, indulge your playful side and embrace a little drama—in a fun, flirty kind of way.

What lights you up right now? Dive into a creative project, switch up your style or start sharing your brilliance more publicly. With this magnetic energy surging through your chart, don’t be surprised if admirers and fans flock to you, smitten by your charms.

Fifth-house energy is also about pleasure, so don't skimp on the pampering. Think: spa soaks, decadently prepared dinners, a perfectly-dressed mattress to nap on. A romantic spark could catch fire, too, and you could be mutually mesmerized by each other. No need to rush into anything hot and heavy unless you want to—and you might. It’s hard to pace yourself when the passionate, carpe-diem energy of Taurus season is at play.

Prepare for interactions with kids (if they’re in your life) to be fun and inspiring during this time. And while you’re at it, take on as much of that childlike freedom as you can, Capricorn. You can lean toward the serious, and getting into a lighthearted groove could give you the inside-out glow-up you didn’t know you needed!
