Capricorn season reveals your goal for 2025 — your star sign’s tarot horoscope

Capricorn season begins December 21, right before Christmas, and with it, we enter into a phase of practicality, grounding energies, nesting, and looking ahead to make robust plans that shore up our security, career pathway, and wealth.

Capricorn is an ambitious character and puts in the effort to get where they want to go. At the same time as keeping all home fires burning brightly.

Use this energy to start thinking about your big goal, in terms of work and money, in 2025. Where are you heading? How can you articulate that as an inspiring goal?

Let the tarot guide you towards your wealth or career ambition for the year ahead

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for Capricorn season: King of Cups

Meaning: Your 2025 career aspiration is to do work that you genuinely love, to have a role that you jump out of bed looking forward to doing each day. Emotional satisfaction is a big part of your work ethic, you need to feel fulfilled and passionate about your job and your position. You want to feel rewarded, not just in money or recognition.

The King of Cups will help you craft this balance in 2025, if it means moving on or retraining or starting anew, then you will. It matters.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for Capricorn season: Two of Swords

Meaning: You have a big decision to make about your career in 2025, and the months of February and June are key times to execute your choice and reap the rewards. Perhaps it’s between two different options or pathways, perhaps it’s related to training and advancement, maybe about stepping up or staying put, maybe about location, or even about stepping back and reducing hours or pressure due to other life choices.

Enter the year with your eyes wide open, a full bag of optimism, and the determination to pro-actively make your choice and see it through.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for Capricorn season: Knight of Cups

Meaning: Your 2025 career aspiration is to put the fun and magic back into your work. You are a highly creative and passionate worker, you need to be in love with what you do, and lately you haven’t been. It doesn’t mean chucking it all out of the window, maybe a few tweaks and mental adjustments will do the trick.

The Knight of Cups suggests clearly separating work and play – not bringing your work everywhere with you, keeping it ‘fresh’. Also remembering what you love and why you do what you do, and getting back to basics there. Spring and summer will prove that you can recreate the magic!

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Tarot card for Leo for Capricorn season: Ace of Coins

Meaning: Your 2025 career aspiration is to end the year in a different place to where you began it! Change is afoot but you recognise it might take the full year to really make the necessary moves, reach the level you need to be at, and activate this pivot.

It feels like a new beginning, a fresh start, but one that you steadily evolve into vs a bold leap overnight. It will definitely yield more riches and rewards, albeit steadily. Start 2025 with high hopes. You are on the move, onwards and upwards.

Tarot card for Scorpio for Capricorn season: Ace of Cups

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

Tarot card for Sagittarius for Capricorn season: The Fool

Meaning: Your 2025 career aspiration is to do something totally different than what you’ve been doing, or bring a fresh element to the mix. Springtime will see you making a bold, spontaneous, and unexpected leap, frankly is there any other way for a Sagittarius to be?

The Fool is the tarot’s first card and patron saint of new beginnings. The Fool is an invitation to be a little reckless, wild, and adventurous. You don’t need to have the whole thing mapped out, you don’t need a five-year plan. You just need the first step. That will swiftly lead to the next. Have faith.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

Tarot card for Capricorn for Capricorn season: Ace of Swords

Meaning: Honesty is going to be the underpinning theme and focus of your career growth in 2025. Saying it how it is (in fact before that, realiaing how it actually is). Seeking and getting insightful, useful feedback and giving it to others (when asked). Negotiating, discussing, collaborating – all from a place of truth and honesty. Being transparent in your own working processes and practices. Asking for help or what it is you need when you need it. Sharing your experiences, teaching others new tricks based on your own successes.

Do this and everything else will flow as it should, because your foundations will be strong, and you will be clear-eyed about what you do and where you’re heading. January and October look great months for you.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

Tarot card for Aquarius for Capricorn season: The World

Meaning: Your 2025 career aspiration is represented by The World, a truly powerful card, the final card of the tarot.

Every ending leads to a new beginning in 2025, so don’t fear or resist change.

Also, global travel or connection or opportunity is hinted at by this card. Whether that’s a literal role, or a travel opening, or a new client/supplier that changes the game. Look further afield!
