Capricorn 22 Dec - 19 Jan

The movement of the planets and their known schedule is more reliable than any bus, train or flight timetable. You can trust with absolute certainty that in January you will begin the most important romantic chapter in a lifetime, one that will dominate for years to come. This makes it important to see work/life balance as something crucial to get right now, rather than a challenge to overcome and move on from.

Just nine days after Venus, planet of love left an adventurous part of your chart Mars leaves today as well, with no more planets to pass the baton onto. All the romantic, adventurous and passionate forces fuelled over the past six weeks can be left to dissipate, with a need to hold onto, embrace them and become their custodian.

You're just two days away from a major turning point this year, especially when it comes to this year's major challenge. The force that has been fuelling work/life balance issues and tensions for the past 12 months is about to run its course. Yet rather than not wanting a bar of it, the love gods are encouraging you to take the time to sort this out. Future romantic developments will depend on having the right work/life balance.
