On September 27, Mars entered Capricorn, and it’s the perfect time to set goals for the coming months-especially with a New Moon coming up! If you’ve been feeling stagnant for a while and you’re looking for the motivation to make positive changes in your life, the universe is about to bring it your way-but it’s up to you to do something with it. Remember, the stars and planets can give us a push in the right direction, but it’s always up to us to make the real changes happen! Here are five reasons you should set goals while Mars is in Capricorn:
- Your energy levels will be up.
Capricorn is known for having a great work ethic-they always seem to push through and never give up. When Mars entered Capricorn, you may notice yourself having more energy than usual, and this makes starting a new project much easier! Take advantage of your high energy levels and throw yourself into planning mode for whatever you want to accomplish.
- You’ll stay on top of things.
Capricorn is also known for being an extremely organized sign. They have a folder for everything, they make endless to do lists (and actually cross off every item), and their planner is their bible! With Mars in Capricorn, you’ll have much less tolerance for clutter, and you’ll want to re-organize your life. This is great for sticking to the goals that you set-when you have a system and you can stick to a well-thought out plan, success is practically guaranteed!
- You won’t be concerned with showing off.
Capricorn doesn’t work hard because they want everyone to be jealous of their success, or so that they can acquire lots of flashy material items. They work hard because they love their career, and they put their whole heart and soul into what they do. During this time, you won’t be concerned with showing off-your goal won’t be to make lots of money or buy something luxurious. The goals you set during this time will reflect your true desires.
- You’ll have more self-discipline than usual.
Capricorn finds it easy to stick to a routine that they create for themselves, day in and day out. Self discipline is key to achieving your goals, and with Capricorn’s influence and a little encouragement from the intense Mars, you’ll find the drive, determination, and willpower to hold yourself to a schedule and attack the daily grind. You’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish with this mindset!
- You’ll be thinking long term.
Capricorns are definitely planners, but they don’t just plan ahead for the next week-they think months or even years in advance. The influence of passionate Mars will help you reflect on what you truly want out of your life, and this combination can influence you to start thinking ahead. Don’t just set goals for the next few weeks. Start considering where you really want to be a year from now, and then break down exactly how you’re going to get there-you can do it!
