Venus in Capricorn Magic | Astrological Magic
Venus in Capricorn Magic involves self-respect, privacy, grit and grace. It's grounding and growing together magic, subtle power, protection and love magic. It's finding the centre of your selfworth, honouring the one you're with and building a legacy together.
But beware, Venus in Capricorn magic can be empowering but formidable. By all means, have high expectations, but don't exchange some of the more frivolous pleasures for a life of burnout and pressure as you climb to the top.
♑ These spells, correspondences and practices work if you have natal Venus in Capricorn OR if you’re timing your astrological magic during transit Venus in Capricorn (see dates below). Or if you just fancy some Venus in Capricorn style magic.
Astrological magic works best when it is symmetrical, so in true Capricorn style, look for correspondences, dates and words that resonate most with your intention.
Are you ready, witches?

♀ Venus in Capricorn personality
In a nutshell, the Venus in Capricorn native seeks to find solid ground. Ruled by Saturn, the cardinal earth nature of this sign is to succeed, push forwards and find solid footing before resting, hence the traditional association with career ambition.
Think of the mountain goat that symbolizes Capricorn – he can scale incredible heights always looking for a nook or ledge to push up from. He is ambitious, going where most would never dream of going but he is also incredibly wary, if he trusts the wrong rock he could plummet to his death – and thus we have the analogy of a Venus in Capricorn in love!
Venus in Capricorn doesn't trust easily. They will test you before they rest with you, just like the mountain goat above. They can be somewhat cynical about love and life, understanding that love can hurt even at a young age, making them seem very mature for their years.
This wisdom can work for them – they are no fools! They expect you to shape up if you wanna be with them. But their closed nature can also mean that they miss out on some of the sweetness of life that other signs take for granted.
You might initially question my choice of Dolly Parton as the poster woman for Venus in Capricorn but despite her pink and sparkly "dumb blonde" branding, Dolly is a no-BS businesswoman with an insatiable hunger for success and a 52-year marriage under her belt (that nobody knows a thing about - talk about commitment and privacy).
She is the epitome of Venus in Capricorn!
the teachings of Dolly
Privacy is one of the biggies for Venus in Capricorn and you might be fooled in thinking them emotionally cold, however, this couldn't be further from the truth.
The axis of Capricorn and Cancer represents feeling secure, and they are two of the softest signs, but because Capricorn has the earthy tendency to hide their feelings, it's an easy mistake to think they don't have any.
Just as Dolly Parton's songs often speak of heartbreak and suffering, a Venus in Capricorn is incredibly deep.
As a Saturn ruled Venus, however, there can be a restriction on love, money, beauty and self-worth and these natives can find these themes challenging, often blocking themselves from receiving.
The lesson is to become vulnerable enough to let love (in its many forms) in, to recognize that the ground beneath them will not always be predictable or stable and that is part of the adventure of life.
Venus in Capricorn natives would love most to commit to someone for life, but that person can take a while to find. They can have a bad reputation as being a bit too serious or high maintenance but this isn't true for most of them.
Instead, they expect you to be genuine, responsible and trustworthy – they're not up for games or teaching you how to live. Trust to a Venus in Cap means that you can be relied on, in monogamy (if that's the deal), work, finances, health and home.
Venus in Capricorn is daring, grounded, driven and determined. They seek to connect with people who have "got it together" and long for a committed relationship that they can lean into without falling.
In a relationship, Venus in Capricorn is patient, encouraging, intelligent and loyal, and at times even a little kinky. They like to have boundaries in their relationships, but once you trust each other, they're happy to go further with you.
Their cardinal earth influence gives them a bold streak in the bedroom and a stamina that is really quite impressive.
Overall, Venus in Capricorn make solid friends and lovers, if you're patient enough to start slow.

♀ Prophecy + Divination | Venus in Capricorn Magic
Venus in Capricorn is impressively competent at divination. Joan of Arc was a Venus in Capricorn - say no more!
They can learn systems and techniques with uncanny appetite and accuracy. This makes some of the more disciplined systems of divination like astrology a wise choice for the ambitious Venus in Cap – they'll be learning for life so the mountain goat analogy is perfect here!
The Saturn-ruled, cardinal earth nature of Capricorn also lends itself to divination forms involving the earth – weather, natural phenomena, the planets (as mentioned above) and anything that requires in-depth study and patience to master.
To harness the power of Venus in Capricorn for divination, learning to relax is of most importance. A Venus in Capricorn often wants to get everything right and move up the ladder of proficiency to prove their abilities, but divination requires a willingness to make mistakes – this is where the big downloads and uncanny messages come from – the intuition!
When the Venus in Capricorn learns that they don't have to deliver a perfect message (or any message at all sometimes!), they will find themselves opening up a wild and magical gift.
Letting go of control will properly utilise a Venus in Capricorn's magic.

♀ Love Magic | Venus in Capricorn Magic
Venus in Capricorn needs to feel secure and their love lives require maturity, respect and dependability to thrive. They are cautious and testing by nature and will only settle down for someone they feel can handle themselves.
If you're making love magic during Venus in Capricorn (or for a Venus in Capricorn native), opt for intentions like:
Commitment, grounding, finding a mature partner, responsibility, shared finances, wealthy dates, dates in fancy places, a date who can pay, a date who can take care of themselves, no scrubs, wanting children/marriage/responsibility of some kind, relationship level ups/taking the relationship to the next level, encouraging a partner to be more dependable, trust, faith, being able to relax and let someone else lead
Use correspondences from this list: Capricorn Correspondences
A love spell for Venus in Capricorn:
Venus in Capricorn has high expectations and finding someone who meets them can be tricky. This love spell will help them to find the "right" person without having to go through tons of unbearable dates.
All you need to do is write the traits you wish to see in a partner – be VERY specific, there is lots of room for error in this kind of magic!
E.g. "single, dark haired, stocky, with a sarcastic sense of humour and a real estate portfolio"
Take the piece of paper and put it under your pillow along with a rose petal and a silver coin for offering.
Ask Venus to send you instructions on how to find this person.
Keep a dream journal by your bed to make notes – you'll be receiving some guidance!

Venus in Capricorn has expensive taste, and what's wrong with that?
♀ Self-Worth + Glamour Magic | Venus in Capricorn Magic
The self-worth of a Venus in Capricorn is serious and ambitious. They’re always up for self-improvement and hold themselves (and everybody else) to pretty high standards. Out of all the signs, Venus in Cap are one of the hardest on themselves when they fall below their standards (Venus in Virgo being the other).
Because of this, they tend to be subtly impressive in their look, vibe and self-respect. Venus in Capricorn won't let anyone see them fail and are quietly confident in most situations.
When you look at the celebrities with Venus in Capricorn, they are very "put together" with a timeless air and seemingly expensive taste. Brad Pitt and Christian Bale, Tyra Banks and Scarlett Johansson are all the epitome of Venus in Capricorn and naturals on a red carpet or first class event.
Venus in Capricorn is mostly concerned with being the best that they can be. They take their self-worth from their achievements so if they feel they have some authority, it boosts their confidence. It's when they don't have the recognition they worked hard for, or they miss a personal goal for themselves, that their worthiness dips.
Just remember, waiting deep within a Venus in Capricorn is a party animal waiting to be cut loose. Capricorn is an earth sign and far more sensual than they let on. When they can allow themselves to relax and indulge (regardless of whether they "earned it" or not), they'll attract the appreciation that they deserve.
During Venus in Capricorn transits, we learn to become secure and to respect ourselves whatever we feel we have achieved. This is the perfect time to practice boundary magic.
If you're making self-worth and glamour magic during a Venus in Capricorn transit (or for a Venus in Capricorn native), opt for intentions like:
Stamina, confidence, sophistication, boundaries, holding your head up high, receiving appreciation and recognition, applause for a job well done, awards and qualifications, looking and feeling expensive, a feeling of authority, not judging yourself so harshly, acceptance of where you are now, a leg up, a win

A simple glamour magic spell for Venus in Capricorn:
Write a list of times or places where you feel less certain of yourself. It might be with a certain person or group of people, or a situation you've found yourself in previously.
Now focus on one of these and write it on a piece of paper.
On the other side of the paper, write the boundary you could set to feel better about this situation.
It might be something like this:
Side 1: I feel uncertain when I receive uninvited guests
Side 2: I politely tell uninvited guests that I have a meeting and will need to rain check
Bury the paper somewhere where it won't be disturbed and watch your boundaries grow. Earth magic is not fast but it really is lasting and you'll find yourself feeling more certain with every changing season.
♀ Money Magic | Venus in Capricorn Magic
If you have Venus in Capricorn (or are experiencing a Venus in Capricorn transit), your attitude towards money is serious – you do not play around.
Money might possibly be one of Venus in Capricorn's biggest topics in life. If they have it, they think about making more. If they don't have it, well that's an anxious Venus in Capricorn for sure!
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, which means they approach money sensibly with great caution, wisdom and restraint – they'll only spend on things that are going to last. This means that a Venus in Cap can actually have pretty expensive taste, however, they do not "splurge".
While you definitely won't see a Venus in Cap in a sportscar or something flashy, you might be surprised to find that they only buy cashmere (it's timeless) and are happy to invest in an item that cost more than the average, for the simple reason that it's better quality.
Capricorn rules the 10th house so a Venus in Cap is happiest when earning. They like to spend these earnings on… things that could potentially earn them more – things that boost their reputation, business, real estate or position in the world. A Venus in Cap sees the benefit of hiring a coach, for example, because in the long run this expense will help them to level up in so many ways.
Venus in Capricorn do not do flashy gifts and are not the people to go for if you want an easy loan. They'll help you out if they feel the cause is truly worthy and they have the money to loan, but will expect to be repaid as per the agreed arrangement. Things can become awkward if your end of the deal isn't withheld and a Venus in Cap will not forget what you owe them.
However, what they lack in open purse strings they more than make up for in their long-term support, plus, they'll never expect you to fork out for them either, making them a reliable and self-sufficient friend to have.
If you're making money magic during a Venus in Capricorn transit (or for a Venus in Capricorn native), opt for intentions like:
Investment, real estate, big spending and milestones like weddings, new homes and things that last, timeless pieces and heirlooms, creating financial stability, boosting a portfolio, getting a higher paid job, signing high ticket clients, banishing debt or student loans, improving credit score, getting agreed on a bank loan or mortgage, being taken seriously, hitting a certain income goal
A simple money magic spell for Venus in Capricorn:
Well it's got to be a petition to Saturn hasn't it!
On a Saturday, create an altar for Saturn using some of the correspondences listed here.
Make an offering each day for a week or two. After that, make a petition (aka ask for something from Saturn) and keep making your offerings until your wish is granted.
Try something from the list above – Saturn is not known for his big flashy generosity, however, if it's something well thought out and useful, he will surely help you out.
Venus in Capricorn is the perfect time for money magic
♀ Healing Magic | Venus in Capricorn Magic
Venus in Capricorn magic helps you get back on your feet after big pain. Imagine the mountain goat on his climb to the peak – if he falls, he falls hard – but often his stamina gets him back up and on his way again. That's what Venus in Cap magic does.
Ruled by Venus in Capricorn: Broken bones, particularly of the knees, tooth problems e.g. root canals, extractions, fillings and dentures, injuries or problems that require strength and stamina to overcome, skin problems or anything that affects your ability to feel competent and confident, orthopedic problems
The physical areas ruled by Capricorn are: bones, teeth, knees, skin, so healing these is extra potent during Venus in Capricorn transits.
A simple healing spell for Venus in Capricorn:
Get yourself a seed or seedling (any plant but not a herb, they die too easily) and name it after whatever you want to heal. You can write it on the pot too if you like.
Water it regularly and ask Saturn to bless it, make it strong and healthy.
As the plant flourishes, so will you.

♀ Venus in Capricorn Talisman Magic
Activate the power of Venus in Capricorn by forging a talisman during the Venus in Capricorn transit (or for a Venus in Capricorn native).
Talismans are formed as jewellery or small objects to carry around and reap their magic 24/7.
Working with an astrologer (like me!) to find the right date and time will give your talisman the exact energy you want. This is called "electional astrology" and you can book a consultation with me here.
First, choose your intention from some of the ones we've explored above.
Then decide what type of talisman to create. Dark coloured stones like sapphire, jasper and hematite are all ruled by Capricorn so would make fabulous materials for your talisman.
If you want to upcycle/decorate something old, be aware that any energy on the item becomes part of your spell (for good or bad). Cleanse it properly first in water or smoke.
At your elected time, set up a ritual space and begin creating your talisman. Visualise your intention during the process.
Charge the talisman every Venus in Capricorn season!
We've reached the end!
